Sometime between 1920 and 1930 William changed his surname from Schwartz to Black. In this memorial the maiden name field, usually reserved for women, shows his surname at birth. The last name field shows his new name. It is not known why he made this change, but one theory is that he wanted to anglicize his last name. Schwartz is the German word for Black.
