• Here are my notes about this document:
  • The four children's names correspond to the names found in Gladys (Schwartz) Kaminsky's 1980 family tree.
  • All four children, in their thirties, are unmarried (which presumably was unusual in 1920). Two of the five children, Bertha and Jack, got married, according to Gladys's family tree.
  • Occupations: Morris is a Tailor, his sons Maynard and Jack are both salesmen for a "Film Concern," William is a salesman for a "Commission house," and Sarah is a Timekeeper for a "Clothing House."
