I hope this helps with Katherine Callan. I found an obituary in the Brooklyn Daily Star
tonight. It was undated since the heading at the top was cut off, but here it is:
Brooklyn NY Daily Star 1904
Miss Catherine Callan.
At the residence of her mother, 205 Franklin street, Greenpoint, Catherine Callan, aged
thirty-five, died on Wednesday evening, after a short illness. Miss Callan was well known
in Long Island City, and the news of her death will be a surprise. She is survived by a
widowed mother, two brothers, Thomas and James, and three sisters, Mrs. M. J. Flynn, Mrs.
Thomas McDowell and Mrs. Cunningham. The funeral was held this Saturday from St.
Anthony's Catholic Church, Greenpoint at 10 o'clock.
And now we have the first name of Lena McDowell's husband. Wish they had named Annie,
also!
Thanks again for the link to Fulton History!
