Treasure Chest Thursday: Meyer Schultz advertisement, FLPBA Anniversary publication

Meyer Schultz' photograph was included in a prior post about the First Lubiner Progressive Benevolent Association's 25th anniversary publication. A few pages later, he and his family sponsored an advertisement.

Rose (27 March 1895 - 27 April 1962) and Meyer Schultz (20 March 1894 - 27 January 1965) had three daughters: Ethel Schultz Berger (16 November 1917 - May 1995), Lillian Schultz Horodner (27 March 1919 - 7 January 2001) and Mae Schultz Sussman (29 May 1925 - 26 July 2001).

Rose and Meyer likely married about 1917. In the 1920 census enumeration they lived at 320 Cherry Street, NY, NY.[1] By 1925 they lived in Brooklyn at 2130 E. 13th Street.[2] They were still in Brooklyn in 1930, living at 501 E. 93rd Street.[3] In 1940, their two eldest daughters were married and living elsewhere. Meyer, Rose and Mae lived in the Bronx at 1210 Elden Avenue.[4]

While I suspect that the address in the advertisement (1531 Southern Boulevard, Bronx, NY) was a place of business, I have no records for documentation.

Comments on posts are always welcome but will be approved before posting. I actually prefer to just let people comment without going through this rigmarole, but I've recently had to delete some posts that I had not vetted before publication. So, please don't be offended. I love to hear from you!
