Muzilon ( talk) 05:44, 4 October 2016 (UTC) Reply Note: suggests there was a completely unrelated Simon Oakland who was married to one Carola Morrell. I have removed her name from the Infobox accordingly. Muzilon ( talk) 05:06, 30 March 2016 (UTC) Reply There appear to be no reliable sources for the existence of his alleged first wife "Carola". Unfortunately this might constitute WP:OR, so we probably still need some good secondary sources here. I believe I have located the family in the US Censuses for 1920, 1930, and 1940, where Simon is recorded as Isidor Weiss. Muzilon ( talk) 21:58, 2 March 2016 (UTC) Reply OK, I've uploaded his death certificate which indicates his parents were Jacob Weiss and Ethel Oaklander. It's a question of finding reliable secondary sources for all this. (He was known as "Si" or "Sy", which may be short for Isidor.) The claim that he was married to "Carola" until 1977 doesn't add up either if he was married to Lois Porta for over 40 years. I've had a quick look through the New York birth indexes and couldn't find a Simon Weiss, but I did find an I sidor Weiss born in Brooklyn in August 1915, which may be him. This seems to be supported by the California Death Index, which appears to have duplicate entries for him under both Weiss and Oakland. A post to a Jewish genealogy group suggests his birth name was Weiss and he derived his stage name from his mother's surname, Oaklander. Oddly, there seems to be a 7-year discrepancy over his year of birth (1915/1922). ![]() contribs) 03:45, 16 March 2009 (UTC) Reply i added the stuff about teh Rockford files -it is on his IMDB page Khan Noonian Singh ( talk) 03:37, 24 November 2009 (UTC) Reply I've added his NY Times obituary and a couple of other references.Preceding unsigned comment added by Dfrankow ( talk I enjoyed this actor's work, and have no reason to believe he was despised or untalented, but the statements in this page don't seem backed up by verifiable sources to me. ![]()
