In the process of reorganizing my family files, I came upon
(again) a copy of a “Family Register” sheet that had been amongst my mother’s
papers. I suspected all along that
the George and Emma listed was my grandfather’s sister, Emma Nunn. The marriage
date is 8 April 1923. Earlier I
had poked around trying to verify this information, but kept coming up
blank. Today I took another stab
at it, and do now believe this page is from the Dorn family.
In the 1925 New York State Census, I found George and Emma Dorn living in the
Bronx. George’s occupation was
listed as a Gem Polisher. Emma was an embroiderer. Living Nearby is Nicholas
and Josephine (possibly called Joy?) Dorn. Nicholas’ occupation is lapidary.
In posting this page I hope to receive verification that
this indeed belongs to the Dorn family.
