Based on limited research I know the following regarding this family:
Lana May STRUNK was b. Aug 1879 or 1880 in Kansas City, KS to parents Thomas
Jefferson STRUNK (1838-1900) and Juliaetta or Juliette or Julie Etta or
Julia Etta or Juliett or Julie EASTMAN or EASTON (1850-1911). Lana was one
of 12 children born to this couple including, Anna or Annie; William Mervin;
Lorenzo Dow; Henry; Alfred Hillman; Lana; Albert D.; Emma A. or R.; David
Francis; Edwin Milo or Allen; Thomas Jefferson; and Elsa or Elsie or Elsia
Vera STRUNK, all born between 1867 and 1890. Lana married John Wilhelm
DETERING (b. 17 Oct 1878 in Freelinville, IN-d. 21 Jun 1949 in Chelan, WA-
son of Henry Herman DETERING and Caroline M. "Cary" or "Carrie"
DROSTEY or
DROSTE) and together they had 5 children including, Floyd John Henry; Vera
Marie; Dorris; Victor Henry; and Ruth DETERING, all born between 1906 and
1919.
Lana died 20 Jan 1960 in Vancouver, WA and is buried in the Fishers Cemetery
in Vancouver, WA. Lana's husband John is also buried in the same cemetery
along with their daughter Ruth D. DETERING OVERBAY (1919-1983). Her son
Floyd was b. 11 Jan 1906 in Washington State and went on to marry Lois C.
MITCHELL (1907-1991)and they had 4 children. Floyd died 3 Dec 1982 in
Manson, WA. Lana's son Victor Henry DETERING was b. in 1915 and died 11 May
1918 in Vancouver, WA when he was just a few years old. Their daughter Vera
DETERING b. 1908 also died when she was just a few years old on 8 Aug 1911
in Clarke Co., WA.
John W. DETERING was living in Vancouver, WA at 1570 Grant Street in 1918
when he was drafted noting his occupation as a Carpenter working for the
Standifer Co. John W. DETERING was still living in Vancouver, WA when he
was registered for the draft in 1942 listing his employer as the Vancouver
School Board and his next of kin as his wife Lana May DETERING of 703 W.
15th Street in Vancouver, WA.
I'm hoping to locate someone from this family so that this wonderful group
of old photographs can be returned to the care of family. If you are a
member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
