 Page On "OLd Out East" GLories
BY OUT-EASTER

The death of Lawrence Nor gan of Wolcott street reminds me of "Old Out East" of 40 years ago. the time when MT Morgan lived on Wall street, and was surrounded by such well known and fine old fam lilies as the Cordens, the Ty- mans. the Myers, the Farrels. the Rafters, the Flynns. the Savers. the Careys, the Brick leys, the Cruesses, the. Der wins. the Cullens, the Mon zanis. the Fitzpatricks, the ssB Bergins. the, Delaneys, the Keegans, the Reileys, the Johnsons, the Towards, and the Layhes. The Morgan fam fly then lived just north of the present Laurel street, directly next to Harrison's rye lots, where the Harrison COW graz ed. and sometimes interfered with the pleasures of the boys who played baseball directly below what was then known as Savers woods!' The section has since been built up, and all of the old chestnut trees and hazelnut bushes have been removed. But in those days children only had to step out of their front yard to find a place where there were plenty of walnuts and chestnuts.
 Active Worker
 MT Morgan was the head of large family. Big and strong, he was for years one of the guiding spirits of the old Tracy Bros firm of builders. No man in the city knew the carpenter trade any better. Quiet and uncommunicative. MT Morgan was. but he was a man of real sincerity. and his word was that of tho gentleman. In the early days of the Church of the Sacred Heart he was one of the pillars of that institution. Along with the late. Mir Keegan, MT Carey. John F. Whalcn. and others, he was exceedingly active in the af- fairs of that church, and in his turn assisted greatly in the an- nual fair always held in either the City Hall or the old Rihk building. He was generally found at the door, where he took the tickets of the hun dreds who always patronized the once-a-year gathering.
 Families Recalled
 TAo oll eox.;1;oc- of unlS O,t East Think of them and some of their members, most of whom are now dead, along with the then pastor. the Rev Hugh Treanor, one of the most popular clergymen ever sent to Waterbury by the Hartford dioceses. The Suttons, with the head, Big Jim Sutton, also an active worker in the inter- est of the church. The Law lors, who first lived at the junction of East Main and Wolcott streets, and later built a block across the way on East Main street. The numerous McGrath families. with the old homestead located on the north side of East Main street west of William street. The family gatherings at this fa- vorite meeting place for rela- tives always stood out to the young of the neighborhood, who occasionally went there either on an errand or to de- liver newspaper. The Hoeys, lived just below them, so did the Films, the Sinnots lived at the corner of East Main and William streets. The Mitchels lived across the street. That fine old family. the Tracys.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-25

lived then as they do now, what is left of them, between Wall and William streets.
 More Familiar Names
 The Hennessys and Priors lived on the south side of East Main street almost opposite Wall street. while Jimmy Col loty lived just east of them. The house at the corner of Eact Main street and Wall street. formerly occupied by the Crucss family, was once the parochial residence of the Church of the Sacred Heart. And then east of the watering trough resided the various Byrne families, a whole lot of them. fine people. every one of them, good to meet, and most considerate of their neighbors and friends. Chris Downey's parents lived on the south side also, as did the McWheeneys, while the McFarlands lived on Wolcott street. almost opposite the Noonan family, of whom Daniel, the head, another church worker of olden days, is still living. And the Mar leys of course owned and lived in what was always known as Marley place. The Johnsons lived on the north side of East Main street beyond the church, with the elderly and esteemed Michael Wallace and his fam fly occupying home across the way. The McEvoy home stead since acquired by Scovill's was long and spaci- ous, and always inviting. The Noonans lived nearby. So did the McGraths who afterwards moved to Southington.
 "BaII Alley"
 Up on the hill just off East Main street lived the Bur gesses. the O'Neills. the Caniffs. the Morans, while be- yond on the same street were the various Hackett families. The Sheerons lived on the Vol colt road as they still do. Up around the present Oak street lived just two families. Gil- mour the blacksmith, and Tom Lynch This was known to old out east families as "The Ball Alley" Years ago it was favorite picnic place for all of the Irish societies of the city.
 Old Dublin street had the Thomsons. the Burns, the Sax,arnI fo -I-1 the Morans. the Nolans, the Gleesons, the Duggans, the different Dorans, the Ryans, the Kennedys, the Tobins by the many. the Slavins, also a score of them. the Claffeys, the Dupphys. the Smiths, the Champions, the Devoys, the Bowes, the Lyons. and others.
 But why go on? This was in day when parishioners of the Church of the Sacred Heart were each and every one church goer.
 Death Recalls
 MT Morgan's death brings back these days to us of what time. We saw him take the tickets at the church fairs; we saw him collect the pew rent; we saw him pass the basket, and we saw him in many of his other lines of activities.
 His death takes away d high grade type of man; a good father; good family man, and citizen that "Old Out East" can well feel proud of having as one of it's main stand-bys in the days of old. We grieve for him just as we know his good family feel his great loss.
