The New York Herald (New York, NY) Saturday, January 10, 1857; pg. 5; col F (Death notices) DIED. LONG -- On Friday Morning, Jan. 9, of consumption, MARY LONG, a native of Manister, county Limerick, Ire- land, aged 20 years. The funeral will take place this afternoon, at one o'clock from No. 52 Park street. Her remains will be interred in Calvary Cemetery. NOTES: One portion of Calvary Cemetery is in Brooklyn with the other portion of it being in Queens. In 1852 the Common Council of NYC passed a law prohibiting any more burials in Brooklyn/Manhattan--so based on the date of Mary Long's death she is likely buried in the QUEENS portion of this cemetery. Most of the burials in the Brooklyn/Manhattan portion of the cemetery were of poor Irish children under the age of 7. The very first Shanahan in my family line to be born on USA soil [Patrick Joseph Shanahan 17 Mar 1862-16 Aug 1862] is buried in the Queens portion of the cemetery.
