NEHGS
Schier Eugene Somerville 1871 236 274 Marriage
item 30, May 21, 1871,
Eugene Schier, residing Somerville, 21, currier, born Germany, John and
Annie, first marriage, Rev. Thomas O'Brien of Somerville
Ellen Gibbons, residing Somerville, 20, born Ireland, Augustine and
Margaret?, first marriage.

Schier Mary E. Somerville 1873 251 284 Birth
item 266, June 17, 1873, Mary E. Schier, female, born Somerville, Eugene and
Ellen, Kent Ct, Currier, Germany, Ireland

Schaier Mary B. Somerville 1874 266 181 Death
item 236, July 30, Mary E. Schaier, female, 1y 1m 14d, Chol Infantum, Kent
Ct, born Somerville, Eugene and Ellen, parents Ireland
[Note that the index says Mary B, but the image shows a fancy E.]

Schier John A. Somerville 1875 269 191 Birth [you said you have this one]

Schier Mary J. Somerville 1877 287 193 Birth [probably J. is for
Josephine]
item 188, May 26, 1877, Mary J. Schier, female, born Somerville, Eugene and
Ellen, Kent Street, laborer, father born Germany, mother Ireland

Schier Louisa F. Somerville 1879 305 196 Birth
Louisa's birth is listed but the image is terrible, mostly faded out and
ditto marks everywhere. The best I can see is that she was Louisa, born
possible 19th of the month, female, born Somerville, parents Eugene and
Ellen, possible Kent Street residence, father currier, he born Germany,
Ellen born Ireland

Shier Joseph Somerville 1883 341 215 Birth
item 240, July 29, 1883, Joseph Shier, male, born Somerville, Eugene and
Ellen, residing Hanson St., currier, both parents born Germany

Schier Maggie Theresa Cambridge 1884 350 85 Birth
the top of the date of birth column shows Nov 1884. The dates are not in
any order, but rather in sets depending on when they were recorded.
Nov. 2, 1884, recorded Feb [faded], Maggie Theresa Schier, f, Eugene and
Ellen, residence Cambridge, father currier, parents born Germany and Ireland

Schier Eugene Joseph Lynn 1910 590 599 Birth son of Joseph... do you have
this one?

Then to the Census:
1880 in Somerville: 15 June 1880 on Kent Street
Eugene 31, Ellen 31, John A. 5, son, Josephine A. 3, Louisa 6m born Dec.

1920 Census shows Ellen age 65 with her daughter Margaret Donovan 33 in
Lynn. Margaret is a widow, sons Gerald J. 14 and Francis W 9. Ellen is
married, immigrated 1880, naturalized 1887. [this can't be correct as she
was married in 1871 in Somerville]

1930 Census shows Ellen age 78, with son Joseph and his family in Lynn. In
this one she is a widow, immigrated 1868 and is Naturalized

Joseph Eugene Schier registered for the draft for both WW I and WWII. His
birth date is given as 31 July 1882 on both cards with wife Margaret as his
contact person.

Lynn City Directory for 1906 shows Eugene and Joseph at 72 Centre, Eugene is
a currier, Joseph is a shoemaker.

Hope this is of some help!
