HISEY REUNION
—Thursday, August 19, 1909 was the day set for the annual reunion of the Hisey families. It seemed as though all nature smiled down on us; it was an ideal morning for occasions of this kind, and a goodly number of the connections of this grand old family took advantage of the beautiful morning, and early began to gather at the old homestead, where the first of the Hisey family in this community settled. Joseph W. Hisey and wife now occupy this place.
—Over one hundred years ago the first family of Hiseys came and settled on this farm, two and one-half miles south of Waynesville. Twenty years ago this fall this family held their first reunion and each year since they have met. Each year we have one or more deaths to record, and each year we greet some that have not come before.
—Sarah A. Hamilton is the oldest representative of the family, her mother being Jemima Hisey Ridge. Early this pleasant morning the buggies, carriages and automobiles began driving in from all different directions. As each one came they were met by Joseph Hisey and wife and given a welcome that made each heart glad.
—The dinner was something never to be forgotten. It was remarked that day, that the Hisey ladies were noted for being good cooks, they most certainly proved themselves so, and as we gazed on the sight as they were seated at the dinner table and observed the good looking ones it was with pride we said "I am a member of this family." There were seventy-five or eighty in attendance.
—There were members of the family present from different places: John Kitchen, wife, son and daughter, Will Kitchen and wife, Mrs. Ida Wire and two daughters from Springfield; Isaac Thorne and daughter of Selma; Marshal Terry and wife, Joe Hisey and wife of Dayton; George Hamilton, Mrs. Opal Owens and son, Mrs. Mamie John and baby daughter of Xenia; Fremont Hormell and wife from Oakland; Corwin Hamilton and wife, of Bowersville; George Ridge and wife, of Clarksville; Harmon Dakin, wife and four sons, Mrs. Angie Dakin, of Lebanon; Two gentlemen and one lady by the name of Hisey from Covington, O., distant relatives of this family, also attended. Several neighbors and friends came in the afternoon.
—When dinner was over, the minutes of last year was read and the following officers elected: George Ridge, President; J. W. Hisey, Vice-President; Mary Mannon, Secretary; Albert Shutts, Treasurer. The afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed by all, then came the watermelons which were excellent. And as the sun began to grow dim preparations began for starting to our different homes, each one expressing their pleasure at being there and promising to be there, the third Thursday in August 1910 at the same place. Goodbyes were said, as glad hands clasped and with a silent prayer in many hearts, that if not permitted to meet again here that we may be an unbroken circle in the great Reunion beyond, we parted. --M. C. D.
