Witmer Clan Members of Family Come From AU Over Canada and United States. Kitchener. â€" Victoria Park was the scene of pcl'h'r the largest family reunion of the many held over the Dominion Day weekâ€"end, when the Witmer family assembled here on Monday for its first reâ€" union in ten years. Over 450 memâ€" bers of the connection and descendâ€" ants of the original Abraham Witâ€" mer actually signed at the park, but it is certain that a considerable numâ€" ber who were present failed to sign the register, thus: bi'infing the pro able attendance to well over 500. The Witmer reunions were instiâ€" tuted twenty years ago, this being the third gathering, since up till the present time they have been held ten years apart. It was decided on Monday, however, that in future the reunions will be held every five years, instead, the date for the next one thus being set for 1940. Leslie D. Witmer, of Preston, president of the family association, extended a welcome to all members of the clan able to be present. *"‘We cannot ascertain how far back the Witmers go at present, but it is understood they extend now to the eighth or ninth generation," said Mr. Witmer in part, but informed the assembled members of the famâ€" ily that he had in his possession the original deed of land granted to the founder of the clan in this district. Many guests came from a great distance to attend the reunion, Mr. and â€" Mrs. Arthus Strickler were present from Peck, Mich., Miss Mary Allan, from Port Huron, Mich., Mr. and Mrs. Lawern Witmer, from Detroit, Mrs. Doris Strasburg, from Elkhart, Indiana, while Mr. and Mrs. Norman Witmer of West Mich., were also in attendance. | The distant American relatives were represented by Moses Fry, who came from his home in Michigan to address the reunion. He recalled the first reunion, twenty years ago, and how great was the change seen in the family, as a group, from reâ€" union to reunion. It is largely for this reason, the Chronic_le_!enr[leld UMIS PeqwDmy TW RAADomnue emeet from the Secretary, Cecil Gingrich, cf Kitchener, that the family has now decided to hold the reunions more frequently. After ten years have elapsed the family grou{; is enormously changed, and the sk of â€" getting in â€" touch with â€" the scattered members becomes more difficult each time. One young marâ€" ried couple have recently carried the family name as far as Africa, where they are engaged in missionâ€" ary work. . _ w ENDL sY Mr. Arthur Goudie, well known Kitchener merchant and member of the Witmer family, also spoke to the gathering, welcoming them, as a citizen of Kitchener, in their visit to the city. Mr. Goudie reminded them that "we are still pioneers, and will be considered as such by those who come after us." HOSTETLERS _ HOLD REUNION: AT HAMBURCG H.
