My direct line went to New York, migrated to Wisconsin in the 1840s, on to Nebraska in the 1880s and to Wyoming in the early 1900s; and one branch to Missoula County, Montana, in the early 1900s. Would like to hear from descendants of Augustus Van Ostrand and his son George. George was born 12 December 1884 and died after 1930. Augustus was born 6 November 1846 and died in Missoula County Montana, 6 September 1934.
