Sarah Szerena Weisz Feldman

m. Henry "Hymie" Hyman Feldman (b. 1897 Nyíregyháza, d. 1990 Chicago) — confirmed

Eighth-generation daughter of Samuel & Roza Weisz · arrived NYC 11 December 1923 on the SS Majestic from Cherbourg · married her first cousin Hymie Feldman the very next day, 12 December 1923 in Chicago (her own 1928 naturalization petition confirms this — resolving the long-standing open question on which Feldman she married) · the third of the three Weisz–Feldman cousin marriages described in Chapter Two · son Edwin Feldman b. 29 Nov 1924, Chicago · daughter Corrine I. Feldman b. 1930 · filed her own Petition for Naturalization 17 October 1928 in Chicago (witnesses Alex Krauss & Marcus Jacoby of Lawndale) · address 1430 S. Sawyer Ave., later 1247 S. California Ave. · Sarah and Hymie owned rental properties in Chicago, including the 1247 S. California building where Irene first stayed in 1950 (West Side) and the 53rd Street house in Hyde Park where Aunt Esther rented from them when Sandra was born. They were Chicago landlords in addition to whatever other trades they pursued. · part of the pre-war Chicago community that received Bobby in 1950 · see Chapter Six

Same person as Sarah Szerena Weisz (above) — confirmed via her own 1928 naturalization petition. Hymie's wife and Bobby's paternal aunt simultaneously, which is why Hymie's relationship with Bobby was so deep: she was both his cousin's daughter (through his mother) and his wife's niece (through his wife's brother Lipot).
