“Rabbi W. Lieter of Pittsburgh and Rabbi Jacob Friedman of Clairton officiated”
See at the Recht-Sandhous Wedding announcment in the Pittsburgh Jewish Criterion 9/04/1931:

“Sfard Cemetery” or “Nusach sefard cemetery”?
5 Yankie Friedman // Jan 21, 2011 at 12:40 pm
on Center street off Walnut st by route 48. I think Sfard cemetery. Is there a difference??

Do you have any other information on Rabbi Yaakov (Jacob) Friedman?? Pictures perhaps??

What is the definition of:
יקר במצלות
I guess this is an error, from:
יקר במצוות
which is poor Grammer for itself.
Yankie,
What do you know about your GG-Father? was he from a Rabbinic Backround? where did he immigrate from?
