1934 Witt Family Reunion


1934 Witt Reunion
The Estill Herald
August 1934


The Witt and Reid Reunion was held at the home of Celia Witt on August 12. Mrs. Witt and Mrs Rebecca Witt Richardson were the oldest members of the families present. They are both near 90 years of age. Joel Dudly Gumm was the youngest member present. He is five months old and the great grandson of Mrs. Witt

A bountiful dinner was spread under the great oaks and an interesting program followed. Everyone reported a good time and are anxious to come again next year. Lets make a real effort to have every member of Elisha Witt's great family present at the 1935 reunion, also each member of John Reid's large family. We wish to thank Mr. B.F. Wilson for sending chairs.
