1865 Massachusetts State Census in Cambridge has a John & Mary Sullivan both born Ireland, aged 25 and 24, with daughter Ellen, aged 1, born Mass. John is a glass maker by profession. Next door is a Jeremiah Sullivan, aged 28, and his wife Honoriah, aged 30, both born Ireland. He is also a glassmaker.

Difficult with such common names. Do you have any additional info about John's occupation, etc.?
