In 1930 this house was owned by Joseph Toohill, a 35-year old shipper for a department store. Joseph lived with his 30-year old wife Elizabeth, a clerk for the telephone company; and his 82-year old Irish uncle, Cornelius Buckley. Part of this house was rented for $65 a month by Daniel Sax, a 57-year old paint salesman. Daniel lived with his 60-year old wife Isabel (born in Maine) and their two children: 28-year old Arnold, a musician; and 26-year old Lillian, a clerk for a gas company. The building was valued at $14,000.
