  • Notes 
    • Tim was the earliest of the Tyendinaga Callaghan family to move west.
      He travelled out to homestead in North Dakota in 1881.
      Walsh County only began to be settled in 1880, so he was amongst the very earliest settlers in the entire area.
      Tim legally acquired his homestead in Harriston Township, North Dakota, on 10 Oct 1882.
      Once he had established his farm, he travelled back to Marysville, where he married Euphemia and brought her west to their new life.
      Soon, other Tyendinaga families began to pour into the area to claim the much-coveted farmlands.

      Family remembers Tim as having dark hair, a fair complexion and blue eyes.
      He had a beard and smoked a pipe almost continuously. Unfortunately, his habit resulted in cancer of the throat, from which he eventually died.
      At some point in time in the early 1900's this family dropped the'g' from the last name, thereafter spelling it as'CALLAHAN". They had nine children:
