The reunion of the descendents of Reese and Helen Spencer Gearhart was held June 17 and 18, 2003 at the Jenny Wiley State Resort Park near Prestonsburg in eastern Kentucky's Floyd County. "Cousins" from Kentucky,Colorado, North Carolina, Illinois, Alabama, Virginia, West Virginia, Arizona, Pennsylvania, and even Alaska spent a soggy few days getting acquainted (or re-acquainted), slogging through mud to visit the family farm and cemetery, looking at photos and genealogy charts, and eating Kentucky Hot Browns (and way too much fried chicken).
A good place to visit, and to see what the old house and cemetery look like in nice weather, is:
Gearhart Farm and Cemetery Web Page from Friends of Samuel May House, Inc
E-mail me with corrections (are names spelled right?), suggestions (could someone please identify all the people shown in the two photos under "Group Shots"?), photos, new links, anything else you want to include on the web site and I'll try to get them up here...at least by the time the next reunion rolls around. By the way, rumor has it that plans are for 2005 or 2006 in Colorado Springs
THANKS! to JUDY for our first photos and ANN for the second batch... and JUDY again for the third!BUT...
