The oddity, explained
Why is Mary unusual?
Mary appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Mary was a cutter built in 1856 and lost on 11/02/1859. Cable broke during gale. Heritage Atlas treats that specific classification-and-description combination as the oddity; the score is a comparative discovery signal, not proof of mystery or the supernatural.
Evidence and further exploration
The coordinate, category and description remain tied to the cited source. Comparative oddness helps discovery; it does not add facts that the source does not provide.
