I was hoping Dorothy's family might lead to something, but I haven't found any later reference to her.

Her father died in 1932.  https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/6125693 

Her mother died in 1939, and Dorothy's brother was listed as the informant.  https://a860-historicalvitalrecords.nyc.gov/view/6768928

It looks like they were both buried in Beth-El Cemetery in New Jersey, and Abraham's gravestone is shown here.  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/210777781/abraham-solomon  I didn't see any likely matches for Dorothy there. 

It looks like Dorothy was listed as Dora in the 1910 and 1920 census, so she could be under that name somewhere.

Fantastic! The death records for Dorothy's parents, Abraham and Jennie, give their parents' names, so we can add much more to the tree.
My friend thinks that a death year of 1969 for Dorothy is likely.
Thanks so much, shellyesq.
