Mary Callaghan was deaf/mute and as an adult spent time in a home for the deaf in Belleville, Ontario where she met her husband, William Emery. Family lore said that they moved to Saskatchewan and were killed around 1910 by a train. But only William was killed by a train, and in Peterborough in 1902. Mary's mother had also just died a month before William. So after their death's, Mary may have lived with a sister-in-law, Martha, and her husband, James Goodenough. Mary seems to have moved to Regina, Saskatchewan with them in 1910. (Fits the family lore a little) Mary appears to show up on the 1911 census in Saskatchewan, but was employed in a completely different household in a village in Regina called Qu'Appelle.
