Maria was the oldest of eight children. Her youngest sister Tess followed her to Boston, Massachusetts. There Tess met a young man who was rooming upstairs in her sister's home at 41
Dighton St., Brighton, Massachusetts. He was John Edward L"Abbe. They had two daughters Joan and Patricia (Pat). Here, in this collage, in the upper left
corner is Tess and lower right
corner is Maria. Pictures were taken in the very early 1900's. The
handsome fellow at the top without a hat is their youngest brother John (Jack)
Mellett. He moved to
Castlebar, Co. Mayo. There he married Anne
Chambers and they had four children together. The
Melletts still have relatives in
Castlebar. The center ship picture is the
Cymric. Maria arrived in Boston 5 Oct 1908 aboard this ship. The
Cymric was a ship that departed from
Queenstown, Ireland and brought many
immigrants to the United States.
