Hi Melissa,I can tell you where reunions may have been held in the 40's,50's,etc. A place west of New Tripoli called Ontalonee Park it is no longer in existance but was a favorite spot for reunions also a park in Allentown called Centeral Park which was over on Hanover Ave. near te state hospital. When I lived in the New Tripoli area theirwas a school teacher by the name of Donate,that was in the 60's so I am sure she has been long retired. My ggrandfather was from Weissport,Pa. and Mauch Chunk now Jim Thorpe his name was John Graver he fought in the Cival War. He was married to Sarah Herman and had 5 children. Sarah and four of the children died with scarlet fever, one son Daniel survived. He then married Susanna Kresge and they had five children 1 Emma I.mr William Schellenberger 2 Andrew mr.Ethel Grover 3 Jennie mr.Oscar F. Fitch4 Owen mr. Helen Wetzel my grandparents 5 Martha Graver mr. Franklin j. Wolfe. All are deceased and a lot of their children are also gone. I hope some of this may help you but who knows. I keep looking and that tree gets wider and fuller. Please let me know if I have been any help to you. Sandra Hill
