Erstmal danke für den Fund der Traueranzeige. Die Mutter soll wohl Lena Hurwitz Lloyd (mit Mädchennamen) heißen und nicht Lena Herwitz wie du in den Text eingesetzt hast ? Bitte die Literatur so zitieren wie hier üblich, also Ira Gitler, From Swing to Bop etc und nicht einfach Webseiten mit wahrscheinlich illegalen Kopien, und die Referenzen haben hier auch eine bestimmte Form (Hilfe:Einzelnachweise).
