6. | Van George Striffler, Jr. (2.Van2, 1.Maria1) 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.
