 | Leslie Deitz
.. this photograph is labeled "Professor Dietz." Whomever applied the label was not a Deitz family member, as we would have never spelled it "Dietz" (although some branches did).
It appears that this picture was taken on the Cheektowaga, Erie, NY farm. |

 | Leslie Deitz at their chicken farm.
.. from some time in the late 1940's and earlier, Leslie and Margaret had a chicken farm in Cheektowaga, Erie, NY. It was located on the south side of Genesee St., directly south of the Buffalo International Airport. At the time it was a semirural area; now the site contains hotels and other commercial enterprises. I do not think they owned the property. |
