The Dallas Post COMMUNITY Sunday, June 19, 2005 Ide family to reunite June 25 for 103rd time Family genealogy, 15 generations deep, is being updated. The Ide Reunion Committee is cur- rently finalizing plans for the 103rd family reunion to be held June 25, at Francis Slocum State Park, Pavilion #1. Each family is asked tobring a covered dish for the traditional common buffet which will begin at noon. The theme for this year’s reunion is “We Are Family.” Attendees are requested to bring either a family heirloom, or a pic- ture of a family heirloom or ancestor and tell something about them. The committee is in the process of updating the family genealogy. “It’s a gigantic undertaking,” said Audrey Ide, who is helping to coordinate the effort. The record was last updated in 1992. The genealogy has been traced back 15 generations to Devonshire, England and includes 1,464 surnames: Although the family database is exten- sive, there are gaps. Anyone who is an Ide descendant and has not received a notification of the reunion may con- tact the Ide Reunion Committee, c/o Willis Ide, 17 Oak Drive, Dallas, PA 18612. Anyone who is unable to attend the reunion, but has genealogy informa- tion that should be included in the new book, may forward it to the com- mittee. The goal is to include all descendants in this updated genealogy and renew contact with “dozens of cousins” who have missed previous reunions. Cleary promoted to 1st Liéutenant U.S. Army 1st Lt.
