Notes

In the 1910 census Bertha (24) and Harry D. (27) are living on Wylie Street in Pittsburgh with 19 year old Dorothy Wald. They have been married for 1 year and have no children. They all immigrated from Russia in 1907 and Harry has filed naturalization papers. They all speak English now (and presumably Yiddish in the past). Harry is an inspector for the railroad, Bertha keeps house, and Dorothy is milliner at a store.

In the 1920 census Bertha (32) and Harry D. (41) are living at 55 Hooper St in Pittsburgh next to Abraham and Esther Hershovitz and their daughter Anna. They are living with their daughters Jennie (9) and Miriam (7). Now Harry's immigration date is listed as 1901 with naturalization in 1908. Bertha's immigration date is illegible. Their "mother tongue" is explicitly listed as Yiddish. Harry is the owner of a grocery store.
