lmbehm on Family Tree Circles

While interested in my family tree in general, I really would like to track down my grandfather on my dad's side.

His name is/was Frank N. Halstead, Jr. (I have seen it with 2 Ls.). He deserted my dad's family in about 1927. I that he was still alive in 1945 when his brother died and living in New York City according to the Penn Yan, NY paper.
