Roberts' Reunion |
The new date for Joseph Roberts Descendents Annual Reunion is the 4th weekend in May. That would be 21 - 23 May in 2010. This change will accomplish two purposes. First, it will greatly help with the challenges of the summer heat. Secondly, it will be held on the same weekend as the Smellage Cemetery Decoration enabling out of town folk to attend both. At the reunions we have dinners with food provided by some of the greatest cooks around, all on a volunteer basis. It is a covered dish or pot luck dinner (that's the noon meal). As one Pastor put it, "Bring a covered dish with something in it that is good to eat!" He did this after one member brought a covered dish to a dinner with nothing in it. When asked why she brought just a covered dish, she replied "That's what you asked us to bring!"It has grown to be a tradition at the reunion to present to family members a jar of home-made jelly or jam who are the winners of various categories. These include, the one who traveled the greatest distance, the one with the most (Roberts) family members present, the oldest, the youngest, and this year to the most recently married couple. Come out and help make 2010 the best reunion yet! Choose a year from the menu on the left to view past reunions and the family members that attended them.
