We are saddened to report that Uncle Elmer passed away Tuesday morning, the 18th of June.


July 12th and 13th, 2002 - Wanship, Utah.
Circle these dates and come join the rest of the Bair clan for another rendevous in the mile high mountains at Wanship, Utah. Yes, we are meeting at the same park as last year - minus the rain storms - we hope.

Howard and Nell's family are in charge of this reunion, with the help of our faithful reunion committee. Our format will be similar to those of the past. A silent auction with great items for all, the usual good food, and bonding with our ancestry of a worthy family.

If more camping room is needed, we can secure more camping about a mile away, on the river. Remember to come early and enjoy fishing in the Weber River, or biking or horseback riding on the old rail trail. Park City is 15 minutes away and also shopping at the Kimball Junction Factory Outlet Stores.

Introducing bairfamily.org
We have launched a Website - we hope to use the site to help keep the descendents of Joseph and Eliza informed about family issues, genealogy, reunions, and to just keep everyone in touch.

The site is still under construction, so you may run into broken links or missing images. Check back often to see the new content and features that will be launched in the coming months.

Look for more information — a map, directions and pictures — on the Website.


Mission Chart
Howard's family would like to display a chart at the reunion of missionary activity in our family since Grandpa Bair's first mission to Ohio. What an interesting project! Please call or mail Joyce Turner your families activities so they can chart them.
