ANN....John Otto had a son John Walter Ousler who, I believe lived in Boston and had a family there. Found 2 other Ouslers descended from him..one in Andover, Mass. name of George Walter and his son, George Walter Ousler the 3rd.in New Hampshire. Since Ousler is a rather rare name maybe the Birmingham one could be connected somehow? Thanks for responding to my posting...dm

connection maybe

As soon as I can-I will talk to my cousin and
find out what she knows. His name was Dana
Moderwell Ousler. I loved Unca Dana and
Belle(that's what I called them) dearly and
have wonderful memories of them.

Belle was my great aunt by blood. She was
one of ten children and my grandfather was
one of those ten.

I'll go by my cousins one day this week
and see if she can shed any light.

Later!!!

don't know anything about his family but I
had a great uncle by the last name of Ousler.
He lived in Birmingham and passed away in
the 1960's(I think)

His daughter is still living, she is my
mother's age and we are fairly close.
Can I help you!!!
