Dear Keri, Here is a summary of the information I have found about your family: Your grandmother Evelyn Diamond

Steuer died on March 28, 1929 and was buried at Rodef Shaloms West View Cemetery (Plot A 9-10). According to our records, she is the only person with the surname Steuer who is buried at West View Cemetery . Rabbi Samuel H. Goldenson officiated at the funeral service. Our interment ledger gives her age as 25. Plot A 9-10 was owned by Mrs. J (Pauline) Diamond; others buried in it have the surnames Diamond, Jackson , and Cohen. There is an obituary and a tribute to Evelyn Steuer in the Jewish Criterion newspaper of April 5, 1929, page 35 (http://pjn.library.cmu.edu/books/pages.cgi?layout=vol0/part0/ copy0&call=CRI_1929_073_022_04051929&file=0039). If that link doesnt work, go to the Pittsburgh Jewish Newspaper Project (http://pjn.library.cmu.edu) and search for your grandmothers full name. The tribute will give you a lovely sense of her personality and her talents, and the obit on the same page gives a lot of family information. You will find many more details, including your fathers birth announcement and the opening of Dr. Sylvesters Steuers dental offices, by searching on other known family members as well. Your father Edward Hartley Steuer was confirmed here at Rodef Shalom in the class of 1945. I have an extra copy of the Religious School yearbook, the Shofar, that I do not need in the archives and could mail to you if you are interested. This particular copy is in poor condition, and, presumably because of the war shortages, does not have the individual photos of confirmands that other yearbooks have, but it does contain several references, mostly in a humorous vein, to Buddy Steuer. Please send me your mailing address if you would like me to send it to you. While we do not charge set fees for researching family history questions, we are always grateful for donations that will allow us to continue offering this kind of service to the wider community. Thank you for your interest in the Rodef Shalom Archives, and best of luck withtext family history research. Type to enter your Martha Martha L.
