If this is the same Robert Rabe that was born in Westchester, NY (per WW1 enlistment above); it seems he is the son of Herman Martin William Rabe (bn Ger)& Bertha (bn Engl) that are living in Westchester Co, NY for the 1920 & 1930 census. Unfortunately on the 1930 census this son is listed as Robert J. Rabe but the initial J could be an error by the census taker.

Ordering a copy of his original Social Security application should give you the names of both of his parents & where he was born also.

Good luck
Marsha
