JASPER A. OSTRANDER, M. D., homeopathic physician, Fairfield, Solano County, is
a native California, born in Merced County in 1856. His parents were H. J. and
Lydia A. (Wheeler) Ostrander, natives of New York State and still residents of
Merced County, where the father still owns and operates a ranch and is
interested in the firm of Ostrander & Sons, real-estate agents. Dr. Ostrander at
an early age was sent to the public school at Santa Clara, and later to the
Friends' Academy, and at Union Springs, Cayuga County, New York, four years; and
then one year at Ithaca Academy, and one year at Cornell University,—these
schools being in New York State. Returning then to California, he attended the
State University at Berkeley one year. His health failing, he was obliged to
abandon his course of study and returned to his father's farm, where he remained
until 1884, engaged in agricultural pursuits, thus fully recovering his health
and vigor. In the year 1885 he entered the Hahnemann Hospital Medical College of
San Francisco, where he attended lectures for three years, graduating in the
class of 1888. He practiced in Oakland until June, 1889, when he purchased the
practice of Dr. H. S. Bradley at Fairfield, where, he has since resided engaged
in his chosen profession. He is a member of the Homeopathic Medical Society, of
the order of the Knights of Pythias and of the Native Sons of the Golden West.

  The Doctor was married October 23, 1884, to Mrs. E. S. Moberly, a native of
Illinois, and they have two children, Olive L., born August 14, 1885; and Annis
M., born May 30, 1890.
