The New York Herald (New York, NY) Wednesday, January 14, 1857; pg. 5; col C (Death notices) DIED. CALLAGHAN. -- On Sunday, Jan, 11, after a few days' ill- ness, CATHERINE CALLAGHAN, wife of Cornelius Callaghan, late of Bruree, county Limerick, Ireland, aged 77 years. Her funeral took place from her son's residence, No. 113 Cherry street, to Calvary Cemetery, on Money, the 12th inst. NOTES: One portions of this 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 death this person 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. Kathy Rhodes
