Research notes

  • Sources: No record is attached to him in the family's Ancestry tree. Everything here is family information from that tree, or from WikiTree, and is unverified.1
  • Family tree (leads): Born 7 Jul 1924 in Canada; died in 2006 in Canada; married to Edith Luella Swerdfeger.1
  • WikiTree (leads): He has two profiles, which are duplicates. Van Dusen-69, managed in this study, gives birth on 7 Jul 1924 at Ottawa, Ontario, and death on 19 Feb 2006. Vandusen-294, by another manager, gives "Harold Leslie Vandusen", 7 Jul 1924 – 19 Feb 2006, Ontario. Their sources have not been reviewed here. They should be merged once the facts are checked.
  • Middle name (conflict): Eslie (family tree; Van Dusen-69) or Leslie (Vandusen-294). Eslie is a rare but real given name; it could also be Leslie clipped. His birth registration or obituary will settle it.
  • Surname: VanDusen (family tree), Van Dusen (Van Dusen-69) or Vandusen (Vandusen-294). The form he used is not yet known.
  • Next searches: his Ontario birth registration (1924; Archives of Ontario, indexed on Ancestry and FamilySearch), the 1931 Census of Canada, his marriage registration, any Second World War service file (Library and Archives Canada; he turned 18 in 1942), and an obituary of February 2006, probably in Ontario.

Working notes

  • WikiTree duplicates: Van Dusen-69 (Brent's) and Vandusen-294 (another manager) - propose merge
