Sujātā is called "mother of Yasa" in VN Mahāvagga, and her name "Sujātā" is declared in AN Ekakanipāta Etadagga Pāli.
Buddha took her food before he enlightened Nibbāna. After Buddha taught VN Anattalakkhaṇasutta to Pañcavaggī, Buddha taught Anupubbīkathā to Yasa and parents.
This is her profile in AN Ekakanipāta Atthakathā. It shows Sujātā wasn't born in rich Brahmaṇa caste family. She was born in rich Vessa caste family because she was born in Kuṭumbhika-kula.
Brahmaṇa-kula = <personal-name>+maṇava (Brahmaṇa caste family)
Brahmaṇa-mahāsāla-kula = rich Brahmaṇa caste family
Gahapaṭi-mahāsāla = <personal-name>+kuṭumbiya (rich Vessa caste family)
Example from Aṅ.A. (manoratha.1) Etadaggavagga Paṭhamavagga etadaggapadavaṇṇanā:
