Harry E. Postler's father was Arthur Postler, born 1896 in New Jersey and his mother was Hedwig Postler (about 1900 - 1981), born in Ireland. He had one sister, Virginia, and a half-sibling, John Tucholski. In 1940, eleven year old Harry was living with his parents in Detroit Michigan on Perkins Street and attending 5th grade. Besides Arthur, 44, and Hedwig, 40, older sister Virginia, 14, was also at home. Dad was a shipping clerk in "enameling small parts". Harry was a veteran of World War II, serving as a gunner's mate, 3rd class, in the United States Navy during the war. He married Marion LaLonde Postler (1928 - 2008) on July 2, 1949, in Detroit Michigan and they eventually had six children: Sherry, Richard, Daniel, Karen, Kelly, and Keith. When Harry died, he was survived by his wife, Marion, and 17 grandchildren.

I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Support ). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in San Jose (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our previous Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
My family began AncientFaces because we believe that unique photos and stories that show who people are/were should be shared with the world.
