In the 1920 census for Savannah, Jerome is living with his sister, Blanche, and her husband, Jake Simon, and their two daughters, Emma and Adele. Also living with them is Jerome and Blanche's father, Jacob Sternberg, who is now a widower, his wife having died in April of 1919.
Jacob now owns an ice cream store and Jerome works there, selling ice cream. Jerome's brother-in-law, Jake Simon, is a retail merchant in a grocery store.
So is spite of the fact that they change businesses frequently, the Sternbergs are still merchants!
Meanwhile, Jerome is still single, and since Ann Lamon, his future wife, is living in a convent in 1920, it's likely he hasn't met her yet. But in 1930, he says he's been married for 9 years, so it must be that he meets her in 1921. I have not been able to find a marriage record for them, however, so we can only speculate.
In 1923, Jerome appears for the first time with a wife (Annie) in the Savannah City Directory. And it also appears that he and his father are in a fruit retail business now, J. Sternberg & Son. Below is a copy of the directory listing.
By this time, Jerome and Ann had their daughter, Ida, and Jerome Jr. was on the way.
