Pauline and Murray lived a few houses from each other on the same block of Hoe Avenue. I have checked the 1925 New York State Census and while the Morris family resided at 1311 Hoe Avenue, I did not find a Levy family in the building at 1321 Hoe Avenue.
Murray and Pauline did wed, however, at the same synagogue in which Murray's sister, Jean, married on the 18th of May 1927.

I recall another family living on Hoe Avenue. I also got some distant FTDNA matches for Myers' just now, which I will forward. I did not expect installments of matches.
ReplyDeleteYes. I have records from 1925-1927 showing Isidore and Sarah Myers Morris (and their children) at 1311 Hoe Ave. In 1926 David and Chaye Myers (Sarah Morris' parents) lived at 1292 Hoe. Earlier (in ca. 1918-20), your gf, Louis (Sarah's brother),lived at 1490 Hoe.
DeleteI think FT-DNA gives you new matches as they show up through new testing.
