Julia's grave, as "Julia Goldberg" was confirmed by matching the dates on the gravestone to known dates for Julia. The gravestone incorrectly has her birth as 22 October 1880 -- it was really 1881, per her birth certificate -- and the death date matches the known date of her death. Thus, we know that the Julia Goldberg buried at Cedar Park Cemetery in Paramus, NJ is the daughter of Aaron Fox and Rosalie Potsdamer. The record shows that Julia died on 11 January 1962 in Manhattan at age 70 and was buried on 14 January 1962 in the Jewish Postal Workers (JPW) grounds, Block 14B, Lot 808, Grave 2, and that her next of kin was Harry Goldberg. The age is just right for it to be Julia Fox Levitas Goldberg, and, perhaps most importantly, Harry Goldberg *was* a postal worker according to his World War I draft registration and his 1930 US Census record. Julia is in a group of four graves, and hers is the only one that has been used. Harry is not in that section with her, so it is possible that he lived, and perhaps remarried after she died, and is buried somewhere else. The neither her son Louis nor her daughter Martha are buried in the cemetery.
