Thank you, Scott. As it turns out, I was able to get more information from my husband's uncle, and he gave me enough information that I was able to find out that Morris had ended up in New York with some of the family and probably died around 1918 or 1919. With that info, I was able to find a likely candidate in the index of New York City deaths, and yesterday the death certificate arrived. Bingo!!! It was him. Complete with his parents' names. The next hurdle is to find the certificate for his wife, Celia Malka (Abramowitz), who apparently also died in New York sometime in the mid 1920s. So far I've struck out on her.
