In 1880, had 3 boarders living with the family: Hannah & Albert Needlham and Joseph Pilant, all of whom list their occupation as “works in jewelry shop”.

Have linked John to his parents (Abraham & Sarah) because of the following reasons:
- John’s mother Sarah is living with the family in Rhode Island in 1870.
- This family is the only one found to have a son John, a mother Sarah (with suitable birthdates) and the profession of jewellers.
- The family lists a son John in the 1851 and 1861 census’s, but no later (John immegrated to the USA in 1862).
