Good Evening All

My uncle Thomas emigrated to New York in 1920 aboard the SS Alcis. He never stayed in contact with the family.

I have found his SSN

Thomas Robson
3 East 4th St, Mount Vernon, New York
Employer - Sinclair Refining Company 10 West 51st St, New York NY
Age 36
DOB 12 August 1900, England (should be 11 August 1900)
Father - John Worly Robson (should be John Worley Robson) Mother - Martha Broton (should be Martha Brewerton)
Sex - male
Color - white
Former W.P.A. worker no. 6548 (or G548)
Dated Dec 3 1936
Signed - Thomas Robson

Thomas died in 1983

Thomas ROBSON
Birth Date: 12 Aug 1900
Death Date: 1 Jun 1983
Social Security Number: 087-07-0656
State or Territory Where Number Was Issued: New York

I think I found Thomas in the 1930 census married to Katherine and with a daughter June

1930 -
Name: Thomas Robson
Home in 1930: West New York, Hudson, New Jersey
Age: 29
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1901
Birthplace: England
Relation to Head of House: Head
Spouse's Name: Katherine
Race: White
Occupation: laborer @ dye house
Age at first marriage: 27
Parents' birthplace: ENG/ENG

Thomas Robson 29 = immigrated 1920
Katherine Robson 28, GER - Age at first marriage: 26; immigrated 1922
June K Robson 1, NY

I also have a reference for their marriage

Marriage 1928 Westchester County
Robson Thomas 8944 1928
Bauer Katherine 8944 1928

I would like to get a copy of the marriage certificate but need to prove both are deceased. I can prove Thomas is deceased but the only reference I have found to Katherine is a newspaper article relating to the probable marriage of their daughter June

THE HERALD STATESMAN. YONKERS. N. Y.. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 16, 1950. TELEPHONE YONKERS 5-5000

Nardelli—Robson

The marriace of Miss June Katherine Robson, daughter of Thomas Robson of Mount Vernon, formerly of Yonkers, and the late Mrs. Katherine Robson, to Jerry Nardelli. son of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Nardelli of 71 Acorn Terrace. New Rochelle, took place at 2 P. M. Saturday in Blessed Sacrament Church, New Rochelle. A reception followed at the home of the bride's father.

Unfortunately It appears June died in 1975

June NARDELLI

State or Territory Where Number Was Issued: New York

I have tried to get a copyof the marriage cert of Thomas & Katherine from several web sites to no avail.

Could anyone please advise me of how to get a copy and where from.

Thanks for looking at this.

Regards

Chris Robson
