If you see someone who seems to be bursting with enthusiasm, the chances are good that it's Eileen. An active member of Band, Orchestra, and Glee Club, she loves horses, sports, and Harry James's orchestra. Al Capp's "L'il Abner" pleases this colleen always. |

Hi--- Nice to see original article ---but I do note an error made by the Milton Record...It states Mr and Mrs Thomas "D" O'Brien. My grandfather's middle initial was F---for Francis. Guess they couldn't blame it on spellcheck in those days. :) I know a newspaper marriage announcement I have of my grandparents also had an error. It lists Anna Beatrice as a daughter of Mary --not Hannah, so I guess typos were not terribly uncommon back then. Those errors do make things challenging in genealogy, however.
Also, to answer your question: My parents were married Saturday August 2nd, 1952 at St. Agatha's Church in Milton. I have the original invitation and plate used to print the invitations. Father Bennett J. O'Brien--- an O'Brien cousin--officiated at the Mass. Their reception was at the Quincy Neighborhood Club in Quincy. I have their wedding album and I also have the bill of sale for their hotel honeymoon---$16 per night-- including meals!! :)
Fr. Bennett--as he was known---also baptized all 6 of us ( and likely other O'Brien cousins) and he is buried in the West Quincy Cemetery too. I visit each year. He had 2 siblings-- Mercedes O'Brien--who held a high position, for a woman in her time, in the Boston School System. She lived on Morraine St. near Jamaica Pond--in Jamaica Plain for a time. The other sibling was Clement Lane O'Brien --- (their mother was Ellen Lane--which is where his middle name came from) Clement died as a small child---I think scarlett fever--- and Mercedes , who was naturally a girl at the time, but was the responsible older sister, was holding him in her arms at the time of his death. It left a lasting impression, as one can imagine. I heard the story often. I have photographs of Mercedes and Fr. Bennett---but again they are on the O'Brien branch, not the Cashman one. Just FYI--more than you requested, I know---but likely of interest to you too. Take Care---Claire
