Looking for info and descendants.

Heinrich (Henry) Mondorf from Mayen Germany entered Ellis Island 1929 aged 21. Henry married Hilde in New York 1939 and have found daughter on 1940 census ^(*)born 1940 and ^(*)on 1950 census with sister and parents born 1944. He may be ^(*) Mondorf. Have found a marriage for ^(*) to ^(*) Piasecki in 1958 in New York. Henry died New York 1978.

Thank you. The age in these articles matches his age in the 1950 census.

Naturalization of Heinrich Mundorf (4 pages).  is this the right man?  If so, he had a previous wife named Martha.

If that's the right date of birth on the naturalization & WWII draft registration, it looks like Henry died on 5 March 1977 in New Jersey.

The marriage license for the 1939 marriage to Hilde said he was not married previously   :  https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/11265160

I don't know if the children of Henry mentioned in the census are deceased or not, so I may have to remove the names.  It looks like the daughter mentioned in his obituary passed away last year.  Her obituary had no mention of siblings one way or the other.  http://www.rootschat.com/links/01t74/

Henry & Martha had a son who died at age 9 days in 1933.  https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/6510319

Thank you everyone. This does not appear to be the correct Henry. Place of birth is Mayen and I have found what I believe is his DOB 22/3/1908 died 1978. Occupation painter.

The date of birth on the marriage license to the marriage with Hilde seems to fit what you have.

This looks like the correct passenger list, as the place of birth is Mayen and the 2nd page has father Anton - https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVPZ-H7L3

There are entries in the indexes for petitions for naturalizations for Hilde & Henry Mondorf of the right dates of birth from 1950 in the US District Court in NY City.  They were living at 311 E. 93rd Street, New York, NY. 

The Social Security Death Index says he died in Oct. 1978, and his last residence was New York City.

Hilde appears to be on the Social Security death index as Mordorf rather than Mondorf.  Born 5 Mar. 1919, died 24 Oct 2007, Social Security number issued in New York in 1956-1957, and last residence New York, NY 10075.
