On his Naturalization card it states Jacob arrived in the US June 17th 1903. Names and address of witnesses were:
Abe Flink 2048 Kendall Street
Marmillian Spatz 4337 Hazel Ave.
Was thinking Marmillian could be relative of Marys?

Just had another look at the census- in 1930 Jacobs place of Birth is written as Kovono, Russia- Russia is then crossed out and replaced with Lithuania. His parents birth place is listed as Kovono Russia.
