I was looking up the Humphrey/Richards family for someone and came acrossyour page on Rootsweb.com. This is information from the Weymouth Townrecords: Carl Thomas (son of Charles Thomas Humphrey and Alice Gardner) marriedHelen Richards (daughter of Edward Everett Richards and Helen Maria Hunt) 1888-1889 Weymouth Directory: Richards, Edward E. salesman in Boston, house on Front St near Federal Humphrey, William, manufacturer calf skins, W H & Company, Middle St, EWeymouth, house same address. (his brother, Thomas Henry owned thebusiness with him.) Humphrey, Charles T. mechanic, Middle St. Hunt, E. Atherton, grocer, Hunt & Company, 64 Front St, house 60 FrontSt. (Both Atherton Hunt and William Humphrey have advertisements in thedirectory.) 1898 Poll Tax, Weymouth, MA: Humphrey, Charles T., Middle St, Grocer, age 41 Richards, Edward E. Front St, salesman, age 55 1910 Poll Tax, Weymouth, MA: Humphrey, Charles T, 31 Middle St, grocer, 51. Richards, Edward E, 362 Front St, salesman, 67 1919 Poll Tax Weymouth, MA: Richards, Edward E, 362 Front St, salesman, 76 The Shoe Industry of Weymouth, Bates Torrey, 1933: p. 27, The tanning fo skins into leather had to procede shoemaking, ofcourse, and Weymouth had a small quota of men engaged in this occupation. Perhaps the largest tannery wa that of William and Thomas Humphrey,operating in the '70's and probably earlier and later than that. [Startedby Thomas in early '40's; later the sons Thomas H and William were takeninto the business. Their products had a great reputation.] The oldfashioned bark processes prevailed, and considerable business wastransacted by this concern. The plant stood off Middle Street aboutopposite what is now a prtion of Whitman's Pond but we fancy that inearlier time the Pond did not extend so far; the presence of tree stumpsat low water would seen to indicate that area was a forest, and by thesame token the site of the Humphrey tannery was probably more favorablethan it looks today.
