I certainly can give you biographical information and some pictures. Do you happen to have a large book entitled The World That Was: America 1900-1945?
It was published in 2004 and distributed by Mesorah Publications. In any event, it has a wealth of information and pictures on the development of Orthodoxy in America in those days and the individuals and families involved. There is a picture of Pinchus Bruder and his wife on page 343, together with their children, Moshe and Tzurtel Weberman, at the 1927 golden wedding anniversary of their children. This was just before he passed away.The article itself (from page 342 to 347) is primarily about Binyomin Wilhelm, who married the Weberman’s daughter (I.e. the Bruder’s grandaughter) and was a founder of Torah Vodaath. My great-grandmother was Mrs Weberman’s sister, Muti Fried. The Bruders came to America circa 1876 from Austro Hungary. Today, there are literally thousands of 5th, 6th and 7th generation American descendants including (among many others) the Belskys, Wilhelms, Webermans, Dickers, Jacobs, Hershkowitz, Bloom etc families. I myself am 5th generation and my grandchildren 7th.

I wonder if he is the Shochet R’ Pinchas Aharon mentioned in this teshuva to rabbi Moshe weinberger:

As a grandchild of R ‘ Pinchas Aaron I knew that he was a shoichet. My grandfather remembered him as a child and he was already an old man in his high 80 (he was 90 in 1927 when he passed away) and was no longer working at that time. Rabbi Weinberger was the rabbi in the cong. where Moshe Weberman who was son in law of R ‘ Pinchas Aaron was a member.
It would appear that there was a dispute with Rabbi Dr. Hillel Klein about the Shochtim Union as Rabbi Weinberger who wrote two seforim Hoiel Moshe (p.1895) and Halacha Lmoshe (p.1902, see page 54) where you can find additional information. Both seforim are available on Hebrewbooks.
