4 Charles (Ellen)
5 Catherine C. "Kate" (unmarried)
6 Elizabeth "Nellie" (Frank McIntyre)

According to the records of Saint Raymond's Cemetery, Bronx, NY, five members of this family were buried on the same day - November 29, 1887. They included:
Charles Brogan (the father)
Margaret Brogan (his daughter)
Maggie and Luke Speckman (children of his daughter Mary Ann (Brogan) Speckman)
Ellen Shannon (daughter of his daughter Hester (Brogan) Shannon)
Charles Brogan's death is reported in the Federal Census Mortality Schedule for 1880 in Westchester, NY. He died of Heart Disease in February 1880. Therefore, the five family members buried on the same day in 1887 were most likely moved to that spot to be in a family plot. This could have been done with the death of the children, two of whom were also born in 1887.
