I cannot find nobody George Brody born abt in 1905... better I found some record, but it is impossible to say if is the same person... very impossible...
no more records by Oakland Tribune....
also another point let me think something... : seeming that GB was very well informed abt the insurance policies.... but, really, very well...
it is possible that he worked for some period in the insurances?
also another question, for Annasmom:
dear Annasmom, you had some time the sensation that GB was hebrew?
thanks, raf
raf, the info on ancestry.com lists an estimated or approximate birth year of 1906. This is listed in both the 1910 and 1920 federal census. do you have a membership for ancestry.com? How/where do you access your info for the census records?
Most of the insurance policies were accidental death policies which were offered/heavily solicited with various credit card companies. Back then, each month an offer to purchase this type of insurance was included monthly with the persons statement. I don't think GB was so knowledgable about insurance as George Waters was concerned about making sure GB was able to financially sustain himself upon GW's death.
ETA: Awesome that you found that 1941 article... no one else has found it in all these years... you rock!
