1930, The Facts

A detail from the 1930 US Census showing the Benjamin Bernstein family.  The entire family is listed.  Grandma's name is spelled "Fannie", and thinking that this is how her name was spelled for the census taker, going forward, I am staying with this spelling.  Of note, Abraham, er, Charlie, is working in collections in the furniture industry.  I recall Harry mentioning this to me some years back.  Not an easy job in 1930's America.
