Mary Elizabeth Sampson MacIntyre was a daughter of Dr. Homer Sampson and Selenia Grace Byrne. When Mary was a child, she and her family lived in the Radiographer's Cottage on the property of the Trudeau Sanatorium.

A similar "shack" is still standing behind the Pomeroy Cottage in 2010 [but it's gone now, in 2020.]
