It's been awhile since I posted to this lovely list but I very much enjoy reading all the inquiries, observations and, of course, Riobard's stories as they are the delight of my day. I was doing some cleaning and came upon a very old volume of the 1853 Fall River (Massachusetts) directory. In addition to a brief history of Fall River and some municipal listings, it is also a mini census listing all men and heads of households (widows) of its citizenry. My Hanley ancestors did not arrive here until the late 1890s but I thought some of you may recognize a relative or two. Here are the Harrington listings: Mrs. Daniel Harrington, house Pocasset (street) Daniel , laborer, house 467 Central James, laborer, house 1 Hartwell James, house Battey's Block, Broden Jeremiah, laborer, house 55 Annawan (now known as Anawan) Jeremiah, laborer, house 44 Central Jeremiah, laborer, house 39 Ferry Jeremiah, laborer, house South Main, Tiverton (land that is now part of present-day Fall River) Jeremiah, laborer, h, rear South Bank, Tiverton John, laborer, house 11 Clinton John, laborer, house 7, rear 11 Eighth Mary, widow, house 13 Mulberry Mary, widow, house 10 Spring Michael, laborer, house 18 Troy Patrick, laborer, house 95 Annawan Patrick, laborer, house 37 Pleasant Peter, laborer, house 9 Town avenue Philip, teacher, Catholic Church Thomas, house Mount Hope Village Timothy, laborer, house 35 Annawan No listings for Hanley, Lowney - I will have to do a separate email to list Sullivans Shea: Jeremiah, grinder, house 10 Borden James, laborer, house 22 Shove's Block John, laborer, house 21 Union Also Patrick Shay, laborer, house 38 Bedford Dennis Sheehan, laborer, house rear South Bank, Tivertton Louisa Sheehan, widow, boards 113 Pleasant I hope a Beara-lister will recognize a relative.
