"I am the sole surviving child, born 1933, of Oscar M. Strange and Grace Ellen Strange, nee Rinehart. ... A letter from Eli Strange to brothers Oscar and George, written in 1946 or so, gave some insight to their childhood experiences. A son of George Strange gave me a copy of the letter and that helped to get me started on my research."
