Named in the 1897 county history

The history of Essex County was published 5 years after the first of these atlases, and it names this establishment.

John P. S. Mahoney was graduated from the Johnson High School, and, after taking a full course in the Boston University Law School, received his diploma in 1893. On August 8, 1893, he was admitted to the Suffolk County bar, and at once began the practice of his profession in the office of DeCourcy & Coulson, of Lawrence, Mass. In January, 1S94, the first day of the month, he severed his connection with that firm, and established him.self in the Merchants' National Bank Building, where he had an office until the completion of the New Central Building, when he took possession of his present handsome suite of rooms on the fourth floor. Since his residence in this city he has built up a fine practice, and has made himself known in legal, educational, political, and social circles.

Provenance

Read by machine from the printed index of the Sanborn fire insurance atlases of Essex County, Massachusetts, held by the Library of Congress. Sanborn atlases published before 1930 are in the public domain. Only names that at least three of four independent readings agreed on are published, and no spelling has been corrected: what appears here is what the recogniser returned from the ink.
