Julius eventually made his way to Tarboro, NC where a small contingent of European Jews had already settled; and where most of his Kirchenbaum relatives joined him. His aunts and uncle, Jacob Kirschbaum (1822-1902), Pauline Kirshbaum Newman (1826-1914) , Mollie Kirschbaum Jacobson (1834-1907) , and Hellene Kirschbaum Meyer (1846-1918) all lived in Tarboro, but are buried in Willow Dale Cemetery, Goldsboro. One other aunt, Elise Kirschbaum Cohen (1842-1898), eventually settled in New Bern with her husband and children, and are buried there.
Julius became a successful dry goods merchant in Tarboro, and became a naturalized citizen in 1900. At age 22, he met and married a local Christian girl, 20-year old Addie Jenkins, of Bethel, Pitt County. Addie converted to Judiasm upon the marriage, and both were members of B'Nai Israel Synagogue in Tarboro.
The couple had four children:
* Carl David Rosenbam(1892-1946)
* Aldene Rosenbaum (1896-1970)
* Lilla Dale Rosenbaum (1899-1983)
* Eleanor Barnhill Rosenbaum (1910-1994)
About 1908, the couple built a Victorian style home on Park Avenue, Tarboro, overlooking the Town Commons, where they raised their children. This historic home still stands today (ca. 2008), although it bears the brickface facade added sometime in the mid-to-late 20th Century.
In 1938, his younger brother, Theodore Rosenbaum (1867-1964) escaped Nazi Germany and came to Tarboro. Theodore, and his father before him, had been a successful cigar box maker in Germany and owned one of the 3 largest manufacturing firms there. (Bunde is often call the "cigar box of Germany" and many tobacco products were produced there.) Theodore came with his wive and two sons, and stayed a few years in Tarboro, but soon relocated to Beckley, Raleigh Co, West Virginia where he is buried. (Memorial #105790470.)
Julius Rosenbaum died in 1931 at age 62. His wife of 40 years never remarried and passed 11 years later in 1942, at age 71.
