    Although the day was stormy, the rain falling most of the time, Saturday, September 3, was the date when a goodly number of the relatives and friends of the Finch family assembled at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence J. Sweet, near Wallsville, to hold their annual reunion.  Soon after noon when all had arrived a delicious dinner was (in) readiness for them.  This feature of the gathering, which is a very important part, was enjoyed by all.  Soon after 2 p.m. the president of the organization called to order for the purpose of transacting business.  After prayer by J. M. Finch and a song entitled 'Beautiful River of Time', the officers of the present time were continued as follows:  president, L. R. Finch; secretary, Mrs. W. H. Treverton; treasurer, Mrs. J. F. Wallace.  It had been previously decided there was no program arranged, so the guests devoted the rest of their time to sociability and having a good old fashioned walk. By the majority, this plan in more satisfactory and enjoyable than listening to a musical and literary program.  All voted by their actions a successful family reunion with thoughts of another at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Van Etten, near Lanesville on the first Saturday in September, 1911.

    Mrs. Charles Freeman, secretary

The Scranton Tribune-Republican  Wednesday August 24, 1910

       The fifth annual reunion of the Freeman family which met at Northern Electric park August 18, was a pleasant meeting with a fair attendance and increased interest, the pleasure of meeting those from distant points whom we never had the pleasure of greeting at any other time or place impressing us with the importance of making special efforts to attend these reunions.  A committee of three, Marshall Freeman, Henry Carpenter, and George E. Freeman, were appointed to select a more convenient place of meeting and decided to choose the academy grounds at Factoryville and the day the third Wednesday in August, subject to change.  H. E. Capwell was retained as a committee to furnish fruit, melons, etc.

    The Fuller family reunion will be held at Nay Aug Park Thursday, August 25.  All relatives and friends are cordially invited.  A full lunch basket will be necessary.

The Scranton Tribune-Republican  Tuesday, August 30, 1910

    The Fuller-Snyder families held their fifth annual reunion at Nay Aug Park on August 25, 1910.  A goodly number having congregated and the  usual greetings being exchanged, preparations were then made for a most sumptuous repast, which was well patronized.

    A general visit followed the dinner.  No one seemed to have more to visit about than a few Civil War veterans, who were among the number. In due time the meeting was called to order by the president, A. C. Snyder.  Aside from the regular business transactions and reading of reports, the company was highly entertained by two little girls from Green Ridge, Miss Eleanor Kirkpatrick and Miss Harriet Barton, who did themselves much credit by their ability.

    Prof. James Fuller, historian of the Fuller family, gave a most interesting account of the Fuller ancestors, who could be traced back to the landing of the Mayflower.  A letter of regret from Byron J. Fuller, of Buffalo, N.Y., was read by the secretary.  The place of the meeting for next year was not decided upon.

  GATES FAMILY HAS ANNUAL RE-UNION
    -
    Celebration Is Held On the
  Ninetieth Birthday Anniversary
   Of the Father
    -
   Three Children Attend

[Separate photos of A. W. Gates and Mrs. A. W. Gates]

     A. W. Gates, of Thompson, the father of Dr. L. M. Gates of this city, was ninety years old yesterday.  His wife passed her eighty-fourth birthday last Saturday, and yesterday the children and grand children of the couple gathered at their home in a family re-union and double birthday reception.

     Mr. and Mrs. Gates are both enjoying splendid health and vied with each other in entertaining their guests yesterday.  They talked with their children of the olden times, told them tales of long ago, and provided for them one of the dinners that all have ever remembered as among the bright spots of their childhood and youth.

 At the reception, ...

GATES, L. M., Dr.    Scranton
- GATES, Edith    daughter
GATES, Hugh A., Atty.    Wilkes-Barre
BROWNING, J. W., Mr and Mrs.   Scranton
- (2 children, names not listed)

    For the past twenty years the children of Mr. and Mrs. Gates have assembled yearly at the old homestead on the birthday anniversary of their father or mother.  One year the reception is held on July 23, Mrs. Gates's birthday, and the next year the family re-unites on July 28, as yesterday.

    Mr. Gates and Mrs. Gates were born in Jackson, Susquehanna county. They were married their in December 1846, but shortly afterwards moved to Scott, Wayne county, where they lived until twenty years ago when they moved to their present home in Thompson.  During the past several years they have spent the winter months in this city, at the homes of Dr. Gates and Mrs. Browning.

    Although August 17 dawned dark and cloudy, about twenty-five of the descendants of Lyman and Mary Green assembled at "Knotty Oak" cottage, the pleasant summer home of G. W. Stanton, at Lake Kewanee, for the family picnic.  The relatives began to arrive early in the day with well-filled baskets, and when the tables were spread, and when the tables were spread it was evident that enough tempting food had been provided to feed twice twenty-five hungry people.  The time passed all too quickly.  While some were rowing on the lake, gathering water lilies, others were comfortably seated on the spacious porches relating reminiscences of the past or enjoying selections on the graphaphome.

When the time came to say good-bye each felt that they had spent a day long to be remembered and were loath to leave a spot so charming and near to nature's heart.
