In the 1900 U.S. Census the Mulqueens can be found at 197 Pleasant Street. Joseph had been in the country for seventeen years and was a naturalized citizen. He and Catherine had been married for eight years. At the moment he was occupied as a bookkeeper. His widower father and widower mother-in-law, Elizabeth Enwright, were both residing with them along with their two young sons, Joseph and Francis.

Ten years later the family moved a few houses down to 182 Pleasant Street. Joseph was a salesman at a grocery store. Four more boys had been added to the Mulqueen household: John, Thomas, Leo and Andrew.

The family would remain at the same address through the 1920-1930 U.S. Census records. It seems Joseph did not marry again. In 1920 he was a bookkeeper at a store and his six sons were all still living with him. Thomas and Joseph were nickel platers at a plating shop. Francis, 17, was a student in Worcester. John was a chairmaker. A housekeeper named Mary Dwyer, 64, was taken in to try and maintain some sort of order among the men.

The final census that Joseph would be alive for, year 1930, stated he was a bookkeeper at a soft drink factory. Only two sons remained at home. Thomas was a shipper at a chair factory and Leo was a railroad laborer. The three Mulqueen men had a new housekeeper: a 60-year-old Irish widow named Annie Healy.
