Charles F. Oesterle (1861-1889), the son of German immigrants Gottfried and Christina Oesterle, was a New York City newspaper reporter and editor at the New York Evening Telegram. He married Susan Maria Walsh in 1882. The Charles F. Oesterle diaries, 1879-1889, reflect personal and family matters; participation in civic, social and religious affairs, particularly his active membership in the Methodist Episcopal Church; and reporting activities and news events. Genealogical notes on the Oesterle and Walsh families are also present. Newspaper clippings, playbills and ephemera are inserted in the volumes.
