The Hall family lived at 99 High St. circa 1883-1889. The parents, Joseph Thomas Hall and Myra Isabelle Garrison had previously been living in Baltimore. The fact that the last known records for Joseph Hall are from 1880 and that son, Irving Kent was born in September 1881 would indicate that the elder Hall died in early 1881. The widowed Myra Garrison Hall then left Baltimore and moved to Jay Candler's 99 High St. home. She subsequently moved to Cambridge starting in 1892. In 1900, Irving was living with her there as he attended Harvard. He married Helen Macy in 1910 and was employed as a tea merchant in a New York firm run by his wife's father.

Thomas Cannon (1867-1940) and Bridget (Tonra) Cannon (1869-1942) both emigrated from Ireland. They married in 1892 and were listed at 1 Walter Ave. in “The Farm” neighborhood by 1900. By 1918 they had moved to “The Point” neighborhood finally settling in at 90 Highland Rd. where they lived with Cannon and Tonra extended-family members. They raised seven surviving children in Brookline.

Thomas Cannon worked for a number of years as a gardener for a private estate. This has been reported as the “Webster’s estate” but it is not yet identified. There was a “Webster’s estate” with an on-site gardener’s cottage in Chestnut Hill but that does not appear to be a likely match

In April 1899, Lyons applied to the town for the position of Inspector of Gas Fitting. This application was presumably unsuccessful as he joined the Brookline Fire Department shortly after that, starting as a hose man at the new fire station in Washington Square. By 1901, he was working as an engineer for steam engine #1 at Station D at 796 Boylston St. by Reservoir Road. After living at several locations near the fire station, he, his wife, and four children settled at 771a Boylston St. He died from nephritis, at age 42.
