Updated July 14, 2003

About Our Family Research


We are having our first family reunion this year about 50 of Ostrowsky's will be there.

My grandparent Jacob and Gerturd Ostrowsky came from the Ukrain. Jacob Ostrowsky immigrated 1911 and Gertrude and her mother Pearl Kamensky immigrated in 1912. There son Frank immigrated in 1913. This is per 1920 census. They had five children named Frank, Etta, Marylou, Rosie, and Charles. They lived in Chicago and then moved to South Dakota and then to Calif.

Jacob owned a wrecking yard in Calif. and also at one time a poultry farm. In Chicago, Jacob owned a limo service.

Pearl Kamensky lived with Gertrude and Jacob until her death. She is buried in Chicago, Il. She died in 1937.
