I found this photo post card in a store in Stirling, ON today. Written on the back is "Kenneth Dean Ostrander, age 4 mos, 1919 Jan. To Myrtle Hubbs from Vera" Would be great to reunite it with a family member.
Kenneth Dean Ostrander, age 4 mos, 1919 Jan. To Myrtle Hubbs from Vera |
The 1921 census (free on Ancestry.com) shows a Kenneth Ostrander age 2 in Hallowell Township, Prince Edward District, son of Harold and Vera Ostrander. He has a brother Donald 8 months old.
There are also dozens of records in the 1940s and 1950s for a Dean Kenneth Ostrander born ca 1919 flying for KLM Airlines as a 2nd Officer.
A 2012 obituary for his brother Donald Ostrander reveals that Kenneth Dean pre-deceased him.
Can any of my wonderful readers help find Kenneth Dean Ostrander's family? There are lots of nieces and nephews names in this obituary.
Please leave your findings as a comment on this blog post. Let's get this lovely postcard and photo home before Christmas!
It's been five years, but perhaps I can help. I believe I am a distant relative BUT I recall a dna match with the same surname and the same area. I will have to double check- has someone claimed this photo yet?
