Michael Greenetz was already managing a jewelry store at the time of the 1920 Census. In 1921 the brothers were partnered with Abraham Pelicoff in a jewelry store which by 1928 was at 833 Broadway. By 1930 Pelicoff had relocated to Atlantic City, where he operated a hotel. Michael and Joseph Greenetz remained on Broadway, moving their jewelry store to 839 Broadway by the mid-1930s. The store was still open at that location through the fall of 1956. Michael Greenetz passed away on August 13, 1958, and Joseph Greenetz died January 17, 1959. Their business did not survive them, and was not listed in the October 1959 New Jersey Bell Telephone Directory. The Greenetz family remains in the jewelry business today, at 812 Haddon Avenue in Collingswood NJ, trading under the name of Ellis Antiques and Jewelry. A son of Michael Greenetz, Dr. Harry R. Greenetz, practiced medicine in the Chews Landing section of Gloucester Township NJ for many years, until his passing in 1997. |

JEWELRY
CLERK HELD IN ROBBERY OF STORE Climbing to the roof of a shed in the rear of the Greenetz & Pellicoff jewelry store, 833 Broadway, burglars entered the shop early today and carried away $2,000 in loot. At
noon today, Joseph Shapiro, 29 years old, 215 South Fifth
Street, a
clerk in the store, was being grilled by Detectives George
Ward and Thomas
Cheeseman, after being booked at police headquarters
as having been arrested “on suspicion.” August
29 four suspected robbers were captured by police only a few minutes
after they had smashed the plate glass window and snatched a tray of
jewels at the same store. Policeman
John McTaggert reported the burglary this morning. He is the brother of
Policeman James
McTaggert, who participated in the capture of the four
suspects last August. Included
in the loot of the burglars this morning were 35 watches left at the
shop by their owners for repairs. At the shop it was said the owners of
the watches would be reimbursed. Other articles stolen included 26
bracelets, 12 diamond bar pins, 15 pair of earrings, three fountain pen
sets, and six strings of beads. At
7:30 this morning, Patrolman McTaggert noticed several men standing in
front of the jewelry store. He learned that they had just discovered an
open window and, investigating, found the shop had been robbed. The
watches and other articles of jewelry were taken from trays and
showcases. A safe in the store was left untouched. The
building next to the jewelry store at 831 Broadway
is unoccupied and it
was through this structure that the burglars entered. They climbed to
the roof of a shed at the rear, entered a second story window and
followed a corridor to an inner door of the jewelry store, forced open
the door, and entered. The
capture of the four men at the store more than four months ago resulted
in commendation from Chief James E. Tatem for the three officers who
participated. With Policeman Edward Smith and Frank
Truax, Patrolman
James McTaggert took the four men at revolver’s point. The men
arrested at that time, still awaiting trial, are James Toner, 54 years
old, 1204 Vine Street, Philadelphia; Mervin Campbell, 24 years old, 2309
Carlisle Street; James J. Kelly, 25 years old, 2121 Brandywine Street;
and Frank MacCrossan, 33 years old, of 1328 Pearl Street. The proprietors of the store are Joseph and Michael Greenetz, 1468 Haddon Avenue, and Abraham Pellicoff, 1417 Haddon Avenue. |
