Boston is quite a bit farther south than London. Although our climate is somewhat similar to yours, with perhaps a few more temperature extremes around the edges, we're just a little further south than Lyon, France, just a little further north than Rome. The absolute latest the sun rises is about 7:20 at the end of October, at which point Daylight Saving Time ends, so it then rises at 6:20, and goes later until the Solstice, when it rises at around 7:15. So, at the end of October, the sun SHOULD be rising at 6:20 or so, but DST pushes it later. In reality, sunrise should be before seven AM, except for a couple weeks around the Solstice.
And it actually gets light a little before that, though.
So that's not as terrifying a time for a Bostonian as for a Londoner.
