Possible obituary for her husband John J. Ford - https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-boston-globe-obituary-for-john-j-fo/143444342/

They seem to be in Boston for the 1950 census with 2 children, the oldest age 7.
In the Massachusetts marriage index, there are entries for John J. Ford and Ann M. Linehan on the same page and volume for Boston in 1941. 
Great thank you have since received hints on my tree that confirm your confirmation. :)

I have been searching for Robert for years and recently came across the following record & I am wondering if it could be him.

Robert Galvin Male Single age 24 Born Cork Ireland Enlistment date 19th May(no year) Enlistment place Wales. Regiment Royal Monmouthshire Engineers. Service Number 3550

I would appreciate any information on this Robert Galvin so I can rule him in or out of my family. He was my grandmothers brother.
Thank you in anticipation

The age is slightly out, but…. It is the correct age (too late at night to do the math)  ;)

You most likely already know this, but on the 1913 passenger list, his contact may have been
Rev. Brown, Sacred Heart College(?)
  (The details appear to be for Thomas. I believe the institution is Sacred Heart College.)

He was recorded on the passenger list as being a student. But, I wonder if there is any possibility that he could have taught at the school or a school in Denver?

Denver, Colorado, City Directory, 1914
Thomas P Murray
Street Address: 4142 W 50th av
Residence Place: Denver, Colorado, USA
Occupation: Teacher
  There were no other Murrays living at this address in 1914

It appears that Thomas P Murray was only at this address in 1914. However, there was another Murray who was a teacher in 1914:
Bernard Murray, prof, College of the Sacred Heart (no home address given)
Could Bernard and this Thomas P be related, or maybe it was just coincidental that they were both teachers?

4142 W 50th av is one mile from the college (now known as Regis University).

There were no Thomas P. Murrays in the 1913 or 1915 Denver directories.  There were no Thomas Murrays in the 1913 or 1915 Denver directories who had the occupation of teacher.

Added: Sacred Heart was a Catholic university.
1924 Denver Directory
Rev. Bernard J. Murray, prof, Regis College
Thank you. Looks like a possibility I hadnt noticed Student on ship manifest. Any record of him after 1914?
