I have just posted the following request to the OESTREICH message board.
Quote. On 21 July 1999, DeForrest Inman Jr published the following request on Ancestery.com.
"I am trying to find information about my grandfathers family. They lived in Philadelphia at the turn of the century. My grandfather was born on June 6, 1896 in Philadelphia, PA and was the oldest of seven children. His brothers and sisters were Raymon, Wolfred, Berince, Mae, Benrinice, Winston. His Father was Maxamillion Oestreich born about 1869 in the US Married on October 13, 1895 Camden, NJ to Jane Jewitt born in Wrexham England 1873. Jane emmigrated from England in 1881. Two of the children died by 1910."
I have been unable to locate DeForrest Inman to respond to his request for information concerning Maxmillian Oestreich and his wife Jane "Jennie" Jewitt. Actually, after all this time, I would rather locate and communicate with the descendants of Maxmillian and Jennie's family "OESTREICH", and skip the elusive DeForest Inman.(sorry, no disrespect intended).
I still would like to know the connection between the Inman and Oestreich families. Any help would be appreciated. Unquote.
Apparently, DeForrest Inman Jr is descended from this family Oestreich. I would respectfully request the expertise of the INMAN board to assist in helping me to understand the connection between the Inman and Oestreich families, and to help resolve this family history dilemna. Thank you. Joe Jewett
