Hugo found with sister Edith in NY!
Hi Peter,
What good luck we have here! The church microfilm is rather incomplete but with Edith being married there, it could suggest she is a member so I will go back to that microfilm and give it a more diligent search.
Did you notice that the couple Hugo was a witness for were witnesses earlier to another couple?
I will look at the marriage records ever so closely to see if Hugo got himself married in that place although the custom is that one marries in the woman's church.
If I do not find him further on in this church, I will check the other Bronx and New York and Brooklyn churches.
If you had a street address for him, that would help.
Very pleased indeed that we can confirm him by the presence of his sister Edith - I didn't really notice her because I wasn't looking for her.
A great day!
Chuck
