Hello Carl,
On Ancestry, I found that Norma died in New Jersey. Then I checked Newspapers.com and found several articles about her including one about the death of her daughter due to a car accident. The newspaper articles identified her husband as Herbert Rabinowitz, who also died in New Jersey. I did not find a marriage record. I did however, find a marriage record for her parents ( see below) Also, the 1920 census provides names of siblings for Bertha and other famly members, which may be helpful in tracking down long lost family members. (see census record below) https://www.newspapers.com/image/516891247/?terms=Norma%20Rabinowitz&match=1# - article about Norma receiving an award, with a photo. Let me know if you don't have access to it and I'll clip it for you. https://www.newspapers.com/image/144923840/?terms=Norma%20Rabinowitz&match=1 - article about the daughter's (Ann) death in Sep. 1975. She has a brother named Daniel https://www.newspapers.com/image/146511815/?terms=Daniel%20Rabinowitz&match=1 - article about a burglary at the Rabinowitz home New Jersey death index Norma Rabinowitz Age: 57 Birth Date: 25 Jan 1938 Death Date: 19 Dec 1995 Death Place: Fort Lee Borough, Bergen, New Jersey, USA Herbert F.
