Look what I found! As the Ostlunds came from Sweden I didn't even think about looking for a family shield- well, this was fascinating because there is much associated with the name.
Ostlund in Swedish and Norwegian means ornamental or topographic composed of the elements 'ost' 'east' and 'lund' means grove.
Upon further investigation it describes people who came from the east, how interesting that Jonas Oslund and his wife came from the east to the US and then made their way north to Canada.
