NOTES:

• This page of the 1949 Oakland city directory shows the address and phone number where Jerome and Sonia were living in 1949. They hadmoved to Oakland to be near their daughter Beatrice (Posner) Wright and her family.
• The entry for Jerome Posner says

  Posner Jerome r 4907 Pierson...... KE llog 4-6749

• See this address today in Google Maps.
• Presumably "r" stands for "residence" and "KE llog" is a telephone exchange name (i.e., to reach this number people had to start by dialling the two numbers corresponding to "K" and "E" on the dial; and when saying this phone number out loud, people would say "Kellog 4 6749". (If you're curious, here's a Wikipedia article on telephone exchange names.)
