Hi Wikitreers,

I’m very interested in the ghosts of Chelsea Hotel and one such ghost story of a Mary. She was a survivor of the Titanic disaster, losing her husband. Mary ended up at the Chelsea Hotel and is said to have hung herself on the fifth floor.

See THE HAUNTED HOTEL CHELSEA

“Mary is encountered at the western end of the building. She’s often seen under the archway in the hallway. It’s said that Mary is always looking at herself in the mirror, which gives her a reputation as the Vain Ghost”

1.) What was Mary’s married or maiden name?

2.) Who was Mary’s husband?

3.) Is there a news article of Mary? 

4.) Did Mary exist?

5.) Was Mary from Buffalo? 

Thank you

Date of death should be 1912

Chelsea Hotel did house survivors of Titanic see New-York Tribune, April 20, 1912, Page 2.

Who were the two brothers who travelled from England together one being Mary’s husband? Same surname both died that fateful day in 1912 this should lead us to Mary

Maybe the wife of one of the Ackerman Brothers https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Akerman-152

Sightings on 8th floor also reported
