Kathleen Elizabeth Downer and son Phillip

Surnames: Downer
According to my grandfather, Walter Francis Downer, one day he and his younger brother, Phillip, came home to find a note stating his mother had gone to the USA. He ended up living with his uncle George and his brother went into an orphanage. However, on the U.S. Federal Census of 1930 for Lynn, Essex, Massachusetts Kathleen and Phillip appear together having emigrated in 1918. My great grandfather, Alfred, died in 1911. This is a bit confusing as the family thought she had gone to NY as a chef. Can anyone enlighten me?
