Mr. and Mrs. G.A. Striffler and William Paul returned last Thursday from a week's visit with Irvine Striffler at Brocksville, Ontario. The trip was by the way of Toronto, Kingston, and at Brantford the part visited Mr. Paul's sister-in-law, Mrs. Hally Laird. At Brockford, they also visited Mr. and Mrs. Mason Wilson and took trips to Ottwaw, Chesterville and Quebec. On the return journey, they crossed the St. Lawrence river by ferry to Morristown, New York, and in LOCKPORT, N.Y., visited at the homes of George STRIFFLER, Philip STRIFFLER (??) , Van STRIFFLER, and Jacob MUCK. The party also visited Niagra Falls. On their way home, they were held up for 3 1/2 hours just before reaching Watertown, N.Y. because of deep snow.

6. | Van George Striffler, Jr. (2.Van2, 1.Philip1) was born on 7 Jul 1934 in California; died on 26 Apr 1995. Notes:
This is his listing from the California Death Index at Rootsweb. It appears that his grandmothers maiden name is being used, and not his mothers. Perhaps his record and that of his father, for whom he was named, were confused. The report of his marriage, published in the September 1, 1958 issue of the STRIFFLER-BENKELMAN BROADCAST, notes that he was the great grandson of David Striffler.
