Hans,
That looks like him, if the date shown in his baptismal date. Because on all records I have found for him in the US, it shows June 22.

Thank you for the information,
Jody

But he was still in the Bronx in 1920, and his wife's passport application dated 1922 reports their resident at 458 E. 143 St., Bronx, NY. So somewhere between 1922 and 1930 it appears they moved to NJ.
