68th Annual Atha Family Reunion
Posted by: Shirla Atha McIntire Date: March 20, 1999 at 13:08:14
  of 524

The reunion is held the 1st Sunday in August, this year Aug. 1st. @ Watters Smith State Park near Clarksburg, WV. A geneology meeting is held on Saturday. Each year pages of research are added to the current 137 page booklet titled "Atha Family in Marion County, West Virginia". The descendants of Elisha (1771-1822) and Ann Cox (1781-1831) Atha hold this reunion. Elisha was a descendant of Capt. George Athey. Elisha was born in Hampshire Co., (West) Virginia. According to court records, Elisha Athea married Senna Cox on Dec. 27, 1800. They migrated to Marion Co., (West) Virginia. A deed dated 1815 spells the last name Athay. All later records spell the last name Atha.
Descendants of the family remaining in the Eastern Panhandle spell the name Athy and also hold an annual reunion.
