In 1939, Mary worked for 49-weeks, earned $2,200 and had other income. Mary's sister Marguerite Weinman died in 1941 and Mary subsequently married Marguerite's husband George.

She was a devout member of Saint Mary's parish, belonged to the Rosary society of the church and was also a member of Court Columbia, No. 248, Catholic Daughters of America.

Marguerite, 41, became ill at the end of May in 1941. She was sick for about a week and was thought to be recovering. Suddenly, on a Friday, she was seized with a fatal embolism and died at her home within a half hour. Marguerite was survived by her husband, one daughter, three sons, and two sisters. Funeral services were held on Monday from her home and then from Saint Mary's.
