INVENTORY FORM B CONTINUATION SHEET LEXINGTON 18 BOWKER STREET <br /> MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL COMMISSION Area(s) Form No. <br /> 220 MORRISSEY BOULEVARD,BOSTON,MASSACHUSETTS 02125 <br /> 2196 <br /> The 1922 directory identifies four households on Bowker Street, none with street numbers. They include a carpenter, "state <br /> agent," post office clerk, mason, and chauffeur. The house at 18 Bowker appears on the 1927 map with a small outbuiding <br /> (likely a garage)at its back left corner. The first known residents at this address were Herbert G. Miller, a printing press <br /> operator, and his wife Bertha in 1935. By 1940, Herbert and Bertha were living a few doors away on Bowker Street, and#18 <br /> was occupied by Francis Dailey, a post office clerk, his wife Irene, and a lodger. (The extended Dailey family was living on <br /> Bowker Street as early as 1922.) Subsequent residents of this house were William A. Knight, a machinist, and his wife Gertrude <br /> F. (1945 and 1955), and Leroy J. Hebert, "Res. Tech.", and his wife Helen D. (1965). <br /> BIBLIOGRAPHY and/or REFERENCES <br /> Historic maps and atlases: Walling 1853; Beers 1875; Walker 1889; Stadly 1898; Walker 1906; Sanborn 1908, 1918, 1927, <br /> 1935, 1935/1950. <br /> Lexington Comprehensive Cultural Resources Survey, Period and Area Summaries. <br /> http://historicsurvey.lexingtonma.gov/index.htm Accessed Jul 23, 2015. <br /> Lexington Directories: 1899, 1908-09, 1922, 1934, 1936. <br /> Lexington List of Persons: 1935, 1945, 1955, 1965. <br /> Massachusetts Historical Commission.
