Hi. You might want to try http://www.anywho.com/ and just put in Osborn and Homer and you will find three in California and one in Alton. I didn't see anything on the others but there are other locators on the web, too. This might mean those people had listed telephone numbers the last time the telephone books were published. ---------- From: MADMANSMOM@aol.com To: ILMADISO-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: Osborn-VanWinkel Date: Sunday, October 25, 1998 12:36 AM In a message dated 98-10-25 01:55:27 EDT, you write: << Hi, I am new to this list and I am hoping someone can help me find some Aunts and Uncles that I have never met. My mother's parents separated when they were first married. They were only about 16yrs. when she was born. They both remarried in later years. I really feel cheated, but then there is nothing one can do...I never knew him. Now through genealogy I find out he has died, but he has children from his second marriage. My mother was an only child and even when her mother remarried, she had no step or half brothers or sisters. I am searching to find these people, and if anyone knows them, I would appreciate it if you would let me know or pass the information along to them. My grandfather's name was Leroy Osborn and in 1947, he married Mary Van Winkel in Arkansas. They had at least 3 children: Linda, Dale and Harvey. They lived at one time in Alton or East Alton Illinois but may have moved to Woodriver, I am not sure. Their father had two sisters and a brother: Homer Osborn of Norwalk, California; May Barton McDaniels of Bunker Hill, Illinois and Dorothy Schallenberger of East Alton, Illinois. This was 20 years ago or more so they could be in other places. Thanks to anyone who can give me a lead. Mary Heuerman Lusk >> ==== ILMADISO Mailing List ==== List problems?
