OBITUARY, appearing on 1 April 1897 in Pittsburgh Daily Post:
KRETZMAN, ANNA -- On Wednesday, March 30, 1927, at 6:15 a.m. Anna Kretzman (nee Klein), beloved wife of Charles W. Kretzman, aged 69 years, at the family home, 134 Poplar Street (Carrick), twenty-ninth ward, city. She is survived by her husband, one son, Charles Kretzman, Jr., two daughters, Mrs. Gordon H. Holmes, and Mrs. Andrew McQuillen, and two grandchildren. Service on Saturday, April 2, at 3:30 p.m. Members of Bethel Baptist Church (Rev. E.L. Krumreig) and friends of the family are respectfully invited to attend. Take car 53 or 54 to Crallo Street. Interment in South Side Cemetery.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
Accusations against Mary Anna for theft began about 1890, but without proof, Anna sued several neighbors for slander and won. However, police were then alerted to her activity. By 1894, numerous newspaper articles are found discussing Mary Anna's arrests and incarcerations for shoplifting. These articles continue for the next eight years. She committed these crimes in conjunction with her daughter, Clara Bork, and a niece, Ann Kretzman. She was known to police by the names Mary Ann Bork and Anna Kretzman, and her picture hung in the "Rogues Gallery" at the police station. Husband Charles Kretzman also is arrested for theft in one of the articles in 1894. The family resided in Tonawanda, New York, at the time of these crimes.
