Unknown_1.jpg

I have no idea who is pictured in this photo, but it is probably from the generation preceding Philip's and Esther's. I found this picture hanging in their garage many years after they died. None of their children recognize the man pictured. Since the picture was in the garage, perhaps he was...

Arthur_Dershwitz.jpg

Arthur Dershwitz was Philip's oldest son. When he registered for Social Security in about 1937, (probably around the time this picture was taken), his surname was misspelled on his Social Security card.

Philip and Esther Dershowitz Marriage Certificate

Here is a photo of the marriage certificate for Philip Dershowitz and Esther Katz in 1912. I found this on microfilm at the Mormon Family Library in Salt Lake City. As I was looking at it, I started laughing out loud and I received a lot of glances from the other people around me in this otherwise quiet...

Philip Dershowitz Ellis Island Record
