Notes for William SIMON
- 1880 Census roll 79_091 lists address as 23 Old Ave. and lists William’s occupation as Notion Peddler. It also says that William and his parents were born in “Ruch Pole,” that is probably an abbreviation for Russia Poland. William’s wife listed as Lizzie.
- According to Morton Simon, family moved to Sharpsburgh shortly after Isaac Simon’s birth in 1882.
- 1900 Census lists address as Fifth Ave.
- 1919 living at 1800 Locust St., Pittsburgh, PA [Jewish Criterion, CRI_1919_051_030_09191919&file=0055] [1705]
- Death certificate gives address as 1800 Locust St., Pittsburgh, PA
- According to death certificate, he was 74 years, 14 days old at time of death, which implies a birth date of Sept. 1849
- Headstone says, "born 1850"
It is possible that this is the William Simon who immigrated in 1872 and applied for naturalization in the District Courts of Allegheny County, Pittsburgh, PA. (Census says immigrated c. 1868, but Esther says 1865 from Scotland.)
