Two members of the same Young family dead at the same railway crossing a few years apart. A coincidence?

A few years ago I came across the story of Frank Young a fellow from Bathurst who was involved in a car crash at a railway crossing. Him and another young man had borrowed a car and perished when they crossed the path of an uncoming train. Here is the news paper article: 

A collision between a freight train and a car at a level crossing not far from the C.N.R. Station attracted a large crowd on September 28, 1926. Cormier noted on his negative that a gentleman by the name of Fraser lost his life under a freight car while Frank Young, driving Mr. Charles Miller’s car was also killed by the impact. One can understand that such an accident would attract a large crowd.

Keeping that article in mind the other day I came across another interesting story and it had a link to this one. Here is the death certificate of Frank Young.

There is another accident that occured at a crossing in Bathurst N.B. It involved a teen by the name of Gertrude Young. Here is the news paper article: YOUNG; Gertrude age 21 died on the 8th/February/1936, she had been staying at the home of Mrs. James McGibbons since early November and was planning to leave for Montreal on Saturday she went to visit her mother at South Bathurst when she left she was seen walking on the train tracks toward Newcastle the trainman seen her by the McIntyre’s crossing about two miles from Bathurst, she crossed the track when they blew the whistle she then knelt down facing the oncoming train which being so close was unable to stop. She leaves her mother Mrs. James Daigle, her step-father James Daigle, two sisters, Miss. Katherine Young at home, and Miss. Isabelle Young of South Tetagouche three brothers, Leonard Caraquet, Edmond South Bathurst, and Joseph of Jacquet River. Her brother was killed at the same crossing 5 years ago when his car was struck by the train. Here is her death certificate.

It appears that she had never got over the fact that her brother was killed by the train, she wanted to go the same way a few years later.
