Open question: Where did Mary Callaghan come from?

Mary Callaghan was born about 1851 in Ireland and by 1871 was a machine seamstress in Tamworth, Staffordshire, living with her married sister Ann. She married John Bruce there in October 1871 and died in March 1885. We do not know her parents, her home county, or when the family left Ireland. Online trees name a father Thomas and a mother Hetty, but no record we have seen names her father, and the Thomas Callaghan who died at Ballinvoash, County Mayo, in 1898 probably belongs to a different family.
