This is the closest I come to the age and occupation cited in your note. This from the FHL CD for 1880 census. They do not provide all info that appears in the census pages (like date to U.S. etc.) You can probably get that info from a Family History Library near you by telling them the FHL Film # and page # shown below. Good luck in your search. 1880 Census Place: North Cambridge, Cambridge, Middlesex, Massachusetts Source: FHL Film 1254544 National Archives Film T9-0544 Page 300B Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace Jeremiah MCCARTHY Self M M W 60 IRELAND Occ: Tailor Fa: IRELAND Mo: IRELAND Mary MCCARTHY Wife F M W 54 IRELAND Occ: Keeping House Fa: IRELAND Mo: IRELAND Timothy MCCARTHY Son M S W 25 MA Occ: Organ Tuner Fa: IRELAND Mo: IRELAND Patrick MCCARTHY Son M S W 21 MA Occ: Works In Tailor Shop Fa: IRELAND Mo: IRELAND Josephine MCCARTHY Dau F S W 12 MA Occ: At School Fa: IRELAND Mo: IRELAND ---------------------------------------------------------------
