----------

Note: Calhoun County Historical Society records have Mary's burial incorrectly indexed as Mary McCauley (1823-1863). Some entries in the old St. Mary's Catholic Church record books are difficult to read and were written in Latin. The misspelling and incorrect date listed by the CCHS for Mary were most likely due to a misinterpretation of the original handwritten records.
