    Oscar Lewisohn was married to actress Edna May (1878-1948, born Edna May Pettie); here's a portrait of her done in 1915: www.jssgallery.org/Other_Artists/William_Orpen/Mrs_Oscar_...
  • Jim Rees said:
    Oscar was in the news quite a bit. He inherited a fortune from his father, who was in the copper business, and spent almost all of it before he died at the age of 34. He was fond of horses and motor sports, getting a very early speeding ticket for $125 in 1907. He was erroneously reported dead in a car crash in 1909. When he died for real in 1917, his estate was reportedly worth $6 million, but on appraisal was found to be less than a tenth that amount. I've been unable to find news of the couple's arrival in NYC, which apparently happened in 1915. Maybe they sailed in to a different port and went overland. Edna sailed back to England on the White Star liner Baltic in December 1918.

    NYT of Feb 28, 1915 query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E01E7D81E3EE733A... reports that the couple sailed for Europe on the Lusitania the previous day. Also on board was W. N. McMillan (neighboring photo).
