Though her obituary records her marriage as 3 Jun 1866 St. John's Registers record it as 3 Jun 1867 at Bathurst. There is much conflicting evidence regarding her date of birth. Her baptism, 29 Sep 1844, records her birth at Bathurst and her age as 4 weeks (abt 1 Sep 1844), her 1901 Census as 14 Aug 1844, her 1911 Census as Sep 1844, and her obituary as 15 Sep 1844.

This obituary was first published 26 Apr 1929 in The Perth Courier:
On Friday April 19, at the home of her daughter Mrs. Mary A. Crawford, Toronto, there passed away after a brief illness, a highly respected and esteemed member of St. John's Parish, Perth in the person of Mrs. Patrick Brady. Deceased was born on September 15th, 1844, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Hogan. Her early years were spent with her widowed mother on the Hogan homestead, 3rd line of Bathurst. On June 3red, 1866, she married Patrick Brady who predeceased her just a year ago. To their union were born five sons and four daughters, all of whom are left to mourn her loss, Mrs. M.A. Crawford and Mrs. Peter Jackman, Toronto; Mrs. Laura Pennett, and Mrs. John Mackler, Bathurst; Mrs. D.F. O'Neill, Detroit; John, Daniel, William, Thomas, Bathurst, and Richard, Sault St. Marie. Mrs. Brady had been spending the winter with her daughters in Toronto when she was stricken with a fatal illness, but saw all the members of her family at her bedside and received the last rites of Mother Church. In her long residence on the 3rd line of Bathurst, she had endeared herself not only to her relatives and the members of her family but to a wide circle of friends and acquaintances as well, by her cheerful disposition and her kindness and charity to all. She was the last member of the Hogan families of the pioneer days of Bathurst Township. The funeral was held from the home of her son, Mr. Thomas Brady, 3rd line of Bathurst, on Sunday afternoon, there being one hundred automobiles in the cortege. The body was conveyed to St. John's Church where the funeral service was conducted by Rev. Father McCabe, of Kingston, and interment was made in St. John's Cemetery. The pallbearers were six grandsons, Messrs. Lawrence, Edward and Daniel Brady, John and Patrick Pennett and Brady Mackler. A large number of spiritual offerings were received, and the floral offerings were a wreath from the grandchildren of Toronto, and a wreath from the local grandchildren.
