On Ancestry.com - records of "New York City Births 1891 - 1902", there is record of the birth of EDWARD BRAUN on May 26, 1902  - Certificate Number 21761.

I could not find a specific death date for ANNA BRAUN, but I could not find her on the 1940 Census - perhaps she died between the 1930 and 1940 Census.
