I am seeking photographs of my grandfather, Louis M. Strantz, and his family and his
farmhouse.
While Louis did live most of his life in Mishawaka, Indiana, he also owned a farmhouse
around 1920 or 1930 which burnt down while
the family was at church and I believe that nearly all of the family photographs were lost
in the fire.
.
The farmhouse was located on 40 acres of land on the south side of what is now Day Road
and about a mile or so east of what is now
Grape Road. This location is north of Mishawaka, St. Joseph County, Indiana.
.
In 1903 Louis married Lottie Glon in St. Stanislaus Kostka church in Terre Coupee,
Indiana, near New Carlisle.
Among Louis's brothers were:
Victor Strantz who married Josephine C. Miller.
Frank Strantz who married Hattie Boinski.
Louis also had sisters:
Monica Strantz who married Frank E. Miller.
Angela "Nettie" Strantz who married Leo Taberski, Fred Dorman, and Harvey
Shank.
.
All of the above people are deceased but may have decendents who, by chance, may have a
photograph or two that will help me
complete the missing portion of my grandfather's life story.
.
Thank you, Tom and Betty Strantz tstrantz(a)aol.com
