About Tillie Zilin Light

--There is INFO IN TIMELINE. -- Also in Public Discussion in Discussion Tab!
According to her 1978 Death Notice in The Miami News, she "had been a local resident for 35 years coming from N.Y." So left N.Y about 1943. That Death Notice lists both her children and what might be called her Step-Children as her Children. It also lists her as survived by one sister (Ida Turetsky of Miami) and one brother (Samuel Kadansky of Israel)
She married Morris Zilin in NY in 1914. -- -- She married Jacob Light in Florida in 1952.


It is not clear whether Jacob Light or Morris Zilin was the father of Tillie's daughter Evelyn. She appears in our tree as his daughter with Tillie Zilin (or Zillin); however, Lynn Delker reports that Tillie is the

"Wife of Morris Zilin and Jack Light Mother of Ruth Kornfeld; Evelyn Magolnick and Jack Zilin Sister of Rose Kagan Weiss"

and Loretta Goldmark reports that Morris Zilin is the

"Husband of Tillie Zilin Father of Ruth Kornfeld; Evelyn Magolnick and Jack Zilin"

I would welcome any clarification and would be happy to post here.
