12 Southwick Street (formerly 5 Dodge Street)
Built c. 1864
for Richard Morgan, laborer
Researched and wriEen by Dan Graham

Image taken from Southwick Street Area MACRIS report: 12 Southwick, April 4, 1986.
�While MACRIS estimates this home to have been built circa 1850, the deed history for
the land itself goes back to 1846. The deed for the lot was transferred among William Andrews,
Thomas Karney, Dennis Devereaux Jr., and Jonathan Perkins in the late 1840s before Richard
Morgan came into possession in 1864. Given that no residents feature prior to Morgan, coupled
with the fact that he owned neighboring properties on Southwick, 12 Southwick was most likely
built for Richard Morgan circa 1864.
Research suggests that the Southwick Street area has historical significance as a notably
intact street of early nineteenth-century workers’ housing. Southwick was previously known as
Dodge Street, and the street number of 12 Southwick was originally 5 Dodge. North Salem was
farmland until the mid-19 century, when the area experienced a great deal of growth and
th
became more residential than agricultural. Southwick Street is one of the older streets in North
Salem, laid out before 1851 under the name Dodge Street. It was renamed Southwick Street by
1874. Most of the houses were occupied by a variety of laborers, teamsters, and leather
workers. Most were owner occupied, and a significant number (e.g. 6, 8, 18, and 22) remained
in the same families between 1851 and 1911. This house was first owned by Richard Morgan, a
laborer. Morgan owned as many as four houses on the street (including 8 Southwick, which is
known as the “Richard Morgan House” [see MACRIS SAL.1841]).
Southwick Street is a one-block street containing a row of intact, modest houses of
similar scale, style, materials, and details. Most are one-story, Greek Revival houses with gable
ends to the street. These houses have facades oriented to the south, and central entries in
Greek Revival surrounds with pilasters and entablatures. According to Salem Historic
Commission member and architectural historian Vijay Joyce, 12 Southwick is a “more
�vernacular building with Greek Revival detailing. [Features include a] simple 4-room plan (2
rooms down/2 rooms up). Center entrance. No central chimney (but it may have had one at
one point); instead there are two chimneys on the wall opposite the entrance, potentially
servicing two fireplaces in the two ground-floor rooms. The exterior is clad in wood shingles,
asphalt shingle roofing. The exterior trim work is typical for a simple structure. Greek Revival
details are almost all contained to the front door surround.” The MACRIS report for Southwick
Street Area corroborates and adds to such descriptions, noting that “most [of the street’s
houses] are one-story, Greek Revival … with gable ends to the street. These houses have
facades oriented to the south, and central entries in Greek Revival surrounds with pilasters and
entablatures.”
City directories identify Richard Morgan as the property’s tenant from 1874 until 1895
(his son Charles was also identified as a resident in 1869 and 1872). After that, the house was
used by a number of laborer boarders including Michael Slattery (1895-96), Fred Eaton (189798), Bert Coe (1899-1900), and Fitz Herbert Edwards (1901-06). Michael J. Sullivan, who owned
the home following Morgan’s death in 1896, also lived in the house from at least 1910 to 1926,
according to directory data. Beyond that point, consulted directories do not list 12 Southwick in
the 1930s. In 1946 (the last year for which data is available), Thomas H. Sullivan is listed at 12
Southwick, with Katherine A. Tayne living in the rear. Thomas’s WWII draft card (included in
research materials below) also indicates he was living at the house in the early 1940s.
The deed history corroborates the home’s occupants, given that Morgan came into
ownership as of 1864. The next property shift occurred in 1907 when John H. Collins sold to
�Michael J. and Katharine A. Sullivan. Descendants of the Sullivans lived in the property from
1907-1949, when they sold to Edmund A. and Ruth M. Cullen. (The 1935 Salem directory
identifies Edmund as a leather worker.) The Cullen family owned the property until the early
2000s. Really, then, the house history is rather unique in that the property has mostly been
owned and occupied by only three families for the vast majority of its life: the Morgans,
Sullivans, and Cullens.
According to findagrave.com, Richard Morgan’s parents were Patrick Morgan and Ann
Tierney. He had a sister – Catherine MacGrane (whose headstone states she was born in Dublin,
Ireland) – and a wife – Catherine Campbell Morgan. Their children were Ann Morgan Clynes
(1838-1914); Laurence Morgan (1839-1842); Charles Morgan (1840-1899); Catherine Morgan
(1843-1844); Mary J. Morgan Hannon (1846-1935); Richard Morgan (1849); Margaret E.
Morgan Tracey (1851-1935). A naturalization record from 1847 (featured in the research
materials in this report) suggests that Richard arrived as an immigrant to Boston from Ireland
on April 10, 1838. He was born in Garristown, a village in Fingal, Ireland, on August 1, 1813.
While Ireland’s 1845 Potato Blight is often credited with launching the second wave of Irish
immigration to America, living conditions in many parts of Ireland were difficult before famine
ravaged the country. Indeed, a large number of Irish left their homeland as early as the 1820s.
Between 1820 and 1860, the Irish constituted over one-third of all immigrants to the United
States. In the 1840s, they comprised nearly half of all immigrants to the nation. Richard was
clearly part of these immigration waves, landing in Boston before settling in Salem to work and
raise a family (source: Library of Congress). He owned at least three adjacent properties on
�Southwick Street, though not all remain extant (see atlases below). He died in February 1896
and is interred at Saint Mary’s Cemetery in Salem.
While information on Michael J. and Katharine A. Sullivan was scarce at the time of
researching this report, promising leads do exist concerning their descendants, such as Thomas
H. Sullivan who came to own the property in 1935. He was born on February 20, 1901 and
worked at United Shoe Machinery in Beverly, Mass. His wife was Katherine E. Sullivan.
According to findagrave.com, Edmund Cullen’s (March 1, 1913-March 5-1991) mother
was Christina G. Devitt Cullen (1883-1968). He had at least three siblings: William Joseph Cullen
(1911-1932), John Henry Cullen (1914-2004), and Raymond James Cullen (1916-1980). He
married Ruth Martha Geary Cullen (1914-2008) in 1934, pictured below.
