Hi Marty,
thank you for the quick reply. I found her when she was 25 years old (1956 city directories) in 49 Van Winkle ave , Passaic Nj. She used to live with her parents Josephine and Samuel Esposito.

Hi Tessa,
thank you for help me out. I got all these information already. Mary was born around 1939, possibly she can be still alive but since that here in the USA after you are married you do not keep your last name how can I look for her today?
thank you again

Roberta,
Do you have obituaries for Mary's parents and any siblings? They would list her married name.
Great to see the 1940 census T!
