Hi Marie.I have just found out this summer that my husband's grandfather had siblings in Waltham, MA, that he did not know about.
One of James GAVIN's sisters was Agnes GAVIN, and I just found out she married Edward MURPHY in Waltham in 1913.
I found out that in the 1920 census Edward F. MURPHY, 31.He was born in MA, but his parents were born in Ireland.His wife, Agnes, 28, was with him, and they had a son, Leonard MURPHY, 3.They later had a daughter, Irene, and a son, Edward.The family later lived in Boston, where the children grew up.
I have a copy of the obituary for Leonard MURPHY in 1986 and he lived in Scituate.I am going to try to contact his family so I can find out more about the GAVIN family in early 1900's Waltham.
I don't know anything else about Edward MURPHY, yet.
