The 1925 NY census has them at 8905 88th St., Woodhaven, a house the family owned (though heavily mortgaged, per the Brooklyn Eagle) through at least 1937. (They were in that house as early as the 1915 NY census, when it was known as 705 Boyd Ave. Queens streets were "renamed" with numbers between 1920-25.) Tilly died in 1930 at 97 Euclid Ave. in Brooklyn, and Jack was a widowed boarder in St. Albans later that year.
