Wissmiller Reunion 2021
We got the reunion back on track this year at the library in Gibson City, after missing 2020
due to the pandemic. It was a smaller crowd, but we had big fun.
There were a good number of regulars in attendance. Also, Brittany and Marcus came from the Indianapolis area
along with their two delightful youngsters, Czarina and Krys.
Brittany has an interest in genealogy, and she and I have already done some collaboration.
Aaron Wissmiller brought a copy of the 1935 Fortune Magazine pictorial about the George Wissmiller farm
in Cooksville. My Uncle Evan, who grew up on that farm, was in attendance.
He narrated the pictures in great detail, even the names of the horses and the dog. He identified a boy
sitting on a wagon in one picture as Uncle Orval. At 97, he still remembers everything!
Next year, we hope to be back at the First Presbyterian Church, with its larger space and full kitchen.
Julie Wissmiller took these great pictures. Thanks, Julie!
