Notes for Ermino Moruzzi
“Born Ermino Martino Moruzzi. Changed name to Martin (Marty) Morris in 1942 due to the anti-Italian sentiments in Denver. He was unable to find employment, especially with Fox Theaters (with which he ended up being employed for a number of years) with the name Moruzzi. Enid insisted that he change his name legally prior to their marriage, as she "wasn't about to be married under an assumed name". Fox did not know of his Italian decent until after his death. They thought that he was of Jewish decent.
Death due to Pneumonia after surgery for bleeding Ulcers.”

May be living as a boarder in a house in Denver and working as a conductor for the street railway in the 1930 Census. He is also listed with his parents in Dawson, New Mexico, but there appears to be a notation that he is absent.
