never any contact between them. My father is 78 and really would
like to know something about his heritage. All of us are extremely
curious - there are 5 out of 6 surviving siblings in my immediate
family. My father had a brother who was killed in a car/train

grew up on his stepfather's farm between Oshkosh & VanDyne,
married my Mom from VanDyne. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
