ROSE (ROSENTHAL) SCHAEFFER (AGE 53) WITH DAUGHTER MIRIAM - 1940 CENSUS - BROOKLYN

DOCUMENT: schaeffer-rose_rosenthal-miriam-census-1940.jpg (look especially at rows 73-74)

NOTES:

• I believe this 1940 census form must be for Rose (Rosenthal) Schaeffer [Harold's aunt] and her daughter Miriam Schaeffer, as the names and ages match up with those in the 1920 census, and Rose's occupation in this census form (making buttonholes) is the same one listed for her in the 1930 census form.
• Here's a copy of the (modern) transcription copied from ancestry.ca

• Here are my notes about this document:
  • The address is 2043 69th St., Brooklyn. See this address today in Google Maps.
  • Rose's occupation and industry appear to be Buttonhole Maker, Men's Clothing; her daughter Miriam's occupation is Clerical Work; her industry is hard to read but appears to start with "Institut"
  • Rose and Miriam are no longer living with Rose's parents Sarah and Abraham, as they were at the time of the 1930 census at age 65. Had Abraham and Rose died by this time?
