INVENTORY FORM B CONTINUATION SHEET LEXINGTON is HIBBERT STREET <br /> MASSACHUSETTS HISTORICAL COMMISSION Area(s) Form No. <br /> 220 MORRISSEY BOULEVARD,BOSTON,MASSACHUSETTS 02125 <br /> 0 2231 <br /> "'Dexter Hillside' attracted many Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe who moved from densely populated areas of <br /> Boston to what was then a suburban outpost. In 1916, an Orthodox synagogue, Temple B'nai Jacob, was built on the <br /> Lexington section of Sylvia Street. It served members for three decades and closed after younger generations of early <br /> residents moved from the neighborhood, ending its unique Jewish identity." (Arlington Advocate, May 2, 2011) <br /> The house at 15 Hibbert Street appears on the historic maps between 1906 and 1927, and appears originally to have been <br /> numbered 19. The first known residents, in 1920, were Sebastian Hellman, a glassblower in a factory(born in France), his wife <br /> Anna (born in Germany), and their daughter Clotilde, who worked as a cashier in a lunch room. By 1935, the house had its <br /> present street number and was occupied by Anna Hellman along with James Irwin, a carpenter, and his wife Mary T. From at <br /> least 1945 through 1955, the house was occupied by Anthony E. Smith, an engineer(first identified as a station engineer) and <br /> his wife Sally. William E. Silvio, who worked in the post office, and his wife Charlotte lived here in 1965. <br /> BIBLIOGRAPHY and/or REFERENCES <br /> Arlington Directories: 1920, 1923. <br /> Duffy, Richard.
