Gibson Reunion
Townville, September 9, 1929.
One of the most pleasant happenings of this year was the Gibson reunion at George Gibson's on Saturday, September 7th, 1929, in memory of the deceased John W. Gibson, it being his birthday.
At about 10 o'clock the relatives and friends began to arrive, bringing with them the desire to make that day one to be remembered.When the twelve o'clock hour came, the table which had been prepared groaned under its weight of the good things to eat that were bing placed upon it.And good things they were!The iced tea kept all so refreshed that over an hour had elapsed before anyone turned his back on the table.
During the afternoon all the relatives assembled together and enjoyed themselves talking and bringing back the memories when they were children around the table of the one in whose honor this occasion was given.The reunion was organized and the following officers were elected: president, Mrs. P. S. Cleveland; treasurer, Mr. Webb Gibson; secretary, Miss Johnnie Gibson.The night following most of those present met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Cleveland for an ice cream supper which was enjoyed very much.
Those enjoying these meetings were: Mr. and Mrs. George Gibson and daughter, Margaret; Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Cleveland and children: Clara, Wilma, Alta Letha and Mary Nell; Mr. and Mrs. M. S. Marcengill and children: Lester, and Velma; Mr. and Mrs. Webb Gibson and children: William and Louise; Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Gibson and children: Milton, Lucy, May, Henry, Ray, Clyde, and Dorothy; Mr. and Mrs. Joe Carr and children: Annie, Nora and Sarah; Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Gibson and children: James, Mescal, Thaddeus, Hazel, Otis and Emily; Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt Gibson and children: Lutie and Lois; Misses Nellie and Adell Taylor; Mrs. Dock Boggs and children: G.

The reunion will meet with Mr. and Mrs. Jim Gibson the first Saturday in next September.We hope that all connected will be present at this time.
