About Simon M. Sternberg

A Simon Sternberg entered the US on January 28, 1882 on the ship Edam from Rotterdam. His age was 21 giving a birth year of 1861. He came from Germany and was described as a Farmer.

He is part of the extended family of Berwin, Block, Schwartzkopf, Wedeles, Marx and Brockman of St. Louis, MO USA.

Possibly Jacob in Ward 24. Census 1900 was part of this family.

He is recorded in the Federal Census of 1910 in Shawnee Oklahoma working as a Commercial Salesman for Ladies Clothing. Lived with wife Carrie. Several children. Age 50 in 1910, birth assumed to be 1860. He stated he was born in New York as was his father and mother.

A Simon Sternberg was buried in New Mount Sinai in St. Louis on February 26, 1916 in grave number 1616. His age was recorded as 50, making a birth year of 1866. His birthplace was recorded as Germany. An obituary is in the St. Louis Post Dispatch of February 27 on page p 1 B.

I read an Internet posting that refers to "Sternberg's in St. Louis-Late 1800's and or Early 1900's" and the query is as follows: "Is anyone related to a Sternberg that once owned or part owned some kind of "Hat" Company or Factory in St. Louis called "Baer Sternberg Cohen". I am not sure this is the exact phrase used."

Baer, Sternberg and Cohen were millners in St. Louis in the late 1800's and early 1900's. There was also an advertising company by that name, and a law firm.
