It occurred to me that Samuel's cousin's name was more likely to be John Mahon, a common name in Ireland. So I looked for a John Mahon on Washington Ave. in 1920 and 1930. No luck. But in 1930, I found a John Mahon on 828 Classon Ave. in Brooklyn. In 1923, when Elizabeth was emigrated to New York to meet her brother-in-law Samuel Buick, his address was 669 Classon Ave. So this just might be Samuel's cousin John Mahon. John was age 46 in 1930, born Ireland, married at age 28, occupation caulker, wife was Nellie, age 39, born Ireland, married at age 21. So marriage abt 1912. No idea whether in Ireland or in Brooklyn. Might be onto something here.

1945 in Queens, Louis' death spelled Vanboeckel, aka John Michelson - birth Belgium, parents Edward and Maria R, wife Mary.

Great finds, oldohiohome. Wonder why Louis also called himself John Michelson. Makes him hard to follow. Since we see that Louis died in 1945 and the 5 looks like a V, I am thinking his usual residence was 465 & 7th St. (it looks like 46V)
So in 1933, we know that Elizabeth's brother Robert was still alive since his name is given on the emigration record. I don't have findmypast to see the outgoing record that is indexed on familysearch. Thanks for the note.
I am thinking that the newspaper article regarding Michael Valenti is likely his obit rather than his marriage. Michael died July 21, 1939 in Brooklyn.
Thanks oldohiohome.

When I look again, it was 47th St., Louis' usual residence. Should have magnified image before.

I have searched Newspaper Archive for an obit for Michael J. Valenti who died July 21, 1939 in  Brooklyn. His wife was Elizabeth nee Watterson who survived him. Her parents were William Thomas Watterson and Margaret Clarke. I have looked for her death certificate and obit as well without luck. Thanks for any help

I think there was a lengthy newspaper article about the marriage of Elizabeth and Michael

It's a list of marriage licenses, but it gives their ages and addresses.  https://www.newspapers.com/clip/114685023/
