I found an entry for Minnie Hogan leaving Queenstown on 30 April 1897 on the S.S. Scythia for Boston. She is an 18 year old single servant. Her last residence was Kinsale and she is heading for Cambridge, Massachusetts. Her brother paid for her ticket; she has $2.50. She is joining David Hogan, her brother, at 12 9th Street, Cambridge.
9th Street in Cambridge was changed to Fulkerson Street - named after a Cambridge native who died in WWII.
12 Fulkerson Street - the former 9th Street - in Cambridge.
#12 is the door on the left.
(#10 is the house on the left; #14 is the door on the right.)
We can see where Marshall Street is with the red icon. St. Ann's is 3 blocks away on Medford and Thurston Streets - there is a little gray icon.
87 Marshall Street where Minnie lived is located at the corner of Stickney and Marshall Streets so I think this is it.
The red icon shows where Patrick Lucey was living. If you go straight up to Somerville High School, you can see a small icon showing 87 Marshall Street where Minnie lived. St. Anne's Church then is just up Medford Street.
285 Washington Street is the brick building with the red awning on the left. #295 must have been just passed this building where there is a bridge over railroad tracks.
Red icon shows where American Tube Works Company was located.

"American Tube Works
The American Tube Works Company, located on Somerville Avenue at Dane Street was incorporated in March of 1852 for the purpose of manufacturing seamless brass and copper tubes. The firm had obtained exclusive right to manufacture “Green’s Patent brass tubes,” patented in England four years earlier. Freeborn Adams, a South Boston machinist, invented similar equipment to produce seamless copper tubes and was the first director of plant operations. American Tube was the first company in the U.S. to produce seamless boiler tubes for locomotive, marine, and stationary engines in addition to tubes and piping for a variety of other purposes. Since the manufacturing process was unpatented, it was kept a closely guarded secret. Its products were exported to all corners of the world for over half a century.
The company appears to have been immediately successful, employing 175 men (second only to the Union Glass Works) and by 1875, produced $1.2 million worth of brass and copper tubing. In the first decades of the twentieth century, the company expanded and rebuilt the complex to include four large drawing mills, rolling mill, foundry, and pattern and blacksmith shops, all arranged around three sides of the relatively tiny Milk Row Cemetery. Today, separate firms are housed in the seven brick buildings of the complex on Somerville Avenue that still remain.
American Tube Works closed in the 1930s, and this cluster of buildings was used by the H.P. Hood Company as part of their egg department. The oldest current existing building standing is the machine and pattern shop to the rear of the Cemetery. The boiler house on Dane Street has recently been converted to office use."
Page 645 of the 1901 Somerville Directory lists American Tube Works under "Brass Tubes" - 26 Frost ave. office Milk, cor. Oliver, B. See p. 807
Page 807 has an ad for American Tube Works.
The red door on the left is #22. I wonder if this is the original building?
Mary Ellen Lucey is born 5 September 1905. Patrick is still a laborer, and the family is still on 22 Wyatt Street in Somerville.
Patrick Francis Lucey arrives 23 February 1907.
Charles Thomas Lucey is born 2 July 1908 in Somerville, but the family has moved to 90 Concord Avenue. Patrick now is listed as a machinist.
The family always stays within the same area.
90 Concord Avenue in Somerville.
Another son is born on 9 March 1910 - Daniel Henry Lucey. The family is living at 12 Kilby Street in Somerville. Patrick is now working as a laborer in a chemical plant. Interesting that the mother in the line above our Daniel is also Mary Ellen Hogan - she is married to Ernest Hilliard.
10 Kilby is the house on the left with red trim. Not sure if #12 is the green house or if it was torn down.
Patrick Lucey is the 33 year old head of the family. He has been married for 9 years to 34 year old Mary Lucey. She has had 6 children - five are living. They both immigrated in 1897; he is naturalized American citizen - if he was naturalized while he was married, Mary was naturalized with him.
He was not out of work on April 10 of this year. He is a laborer at the Tube Works Company. Patrick and Mary both read and write. They are renting their apartment.
There are 5 Lucey sons - Jeremiah is 8, John is 6, Frank is 4, Charles is 2, and baby Daniel is 2 months. Jeremiah and John attend school. Mary Ellen Lucey must be the child who died.
June 10, 1914 in Cambridge a baby girl was born to Patrick Lucey and Ellen Hogan who are now living at 19 Hunting Street in Cambridge.
19 Hunting is just 4 blocks from where the Luceys lived on Columbia Street.
19 Hunting Street is on the right side of the green house.
John R. Callahan conducted the 1920 U.S. Census of Cambridge's Ward 3 Precinct 4 on 27 January. The Luceys are now renting an apartment at 361 Columbia Street.
The census tells us that 42 year old Patrick and 43 year old Mary Lucey immigrated in 1898 and were naturalized in 1903. Patrick is a city laborer.
Their 5 sons are still living with them. 18 year old Jeremiah is a machine operator at Woven Hose Company. His brother John is 16 and also works at the Woven Hose Company as a folder.
Patrick is 13, Charlie is 11, and Daniel is 9 - they all attend school. They also have 3 sisters - Lena is 7, Nora is 5 - they also go to school. Catherine is the baby and is 3.
The Luceys are listed in the 1930 United States Census. They are living on block 9 of Cambridge's Ward 3 at 1229 Cambridge Street. Timothy O'Brien conducted the census on April 9.
Our Luceys are renting an apartment for $33 per month and have a radio. Patrick is 52 years old; Mary is 53. He was 24 at his first marriage; she was 25. Notice the census does not ask how many marriages each has had.
Son Daniel Lucey is 20 and works as a mixer at an ink factory.
Jeremiah Lucey is 28 and is working at a rubber factory.
Lena is 17, Norah is 15, Catherine is 13, and Walter is 9. They have all attended school at some time since September 1, 1929.
The Luceys are still renting the Cambridge Street apartment in 1940 - now they are paying $27 monthly.
Mary is 63 years old and attended the first year of high school.
Their son John is 36, single, and finished 8th grade. He did not work for pay or profit in either private or nonemergency government work the week of March 24-30. He was assigned to public emergency work - the C.C.C. or Civilian Conservation Corps - that week. This was part of Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal to help single, unemployed men work during the Depression. He only worked 7 weeks in 1939 and made $210. His occupation is listed as a laborer for the C.C.C. He was unemployed for 76 weeks up to March 30, 1940 - almost a year and a half. He received income of $50 or more from sources other than wages or salary. I read somewhere that the C.C.C. gave a person $30 monthly and $25 had to be sent home. Maybe that was the source of John's other income.
Patrick Lucey, Jr. is 33, single, and finished 2 years of high school. He was not working the week of March 24-30. He is looking for work. He has been out of work for 250 weeks - almost 5 years! He is assigned as a clerk for the WPA - the Works Progress Administration - another New Deal program. He did not work at all in 1939 - he had no salary and no other income.
Charles Lucey is 31 and single - he completed the 8th grade. He is also looking for work. He has been unemployed for 104 weeks - his normal occupation is a hospital attendant in the private sector - unlike his brothers who are both in government programs. He did not work in 1939 so had no salary - he had no other income.
At the bottom of the page are Supplementary Questions, and Patrick Lucey, Jr. is on the bottom line. His parents were born in Eire and speak English. Patrick is not a veteran of the U.S. military forces. He does have a Federal Social Security number. There were no deductions for Federal Old-Age Insurance or Railroad Retirement because Patrick had no salary in 1939. His usual occupation is a truck driver in the transportation industry.
