A Zoom link will be emailed out on Monday, November 10th to those who have registered.
Also, please send us any obituaries so that family can be honored during the reunion. Please send an e-mail with obituary in the subject line to Livingston.Watson.WI@gmail.com. You may also send any agenda items you would like to have discussed to the same e-mail.
Calling presenters! We still do not have a presenter for this year. If anyone would like to do a presentation for the family, please e-mail Livingston.Watson.WI@gmail.com. You can do a presentation on any family-related topic. Some ideas: travel to family sites, ancestry research or an interesting story from your branch of the family. Presentations do not have to be long, and they make the reunions so much better! If we do not get a presenter by the reunion, we will do a short presentation describing some of the family sites around Livingston, Wisconsin.
Hope to see everyone at the reunion!
In the late 1700s, five branches of Livingston/Levingston and Watson families settled in Avoca, Carnew, Bolinahaney and Newtownbarry in Counties Wicklow and Wexford, Ireland. All lived within twenty miles of each other, but after more than 250 years, descendants can now be found all over the globe.
Since 1923, the Livingston Watson Family Association ( Livingston.Watson.WI@gmail.com) has celebrated its heritage by sponsoring a family reunion held in August each year in Livingston, Wisconsin, USA. This website brings together much of the family history, photos, news clippings and genealogical research that has accumulated over the years.

New Facebook page
New Facebook page
In the past we had two pages which were confusing to people, and there were also issues with non-family members joining. In order to make our page more secure, we have created a group page in which you have to click to join. The older sites have been deleted from Facebook. It wasn't allowed to transfer your names from the older sites so you must sign up for this one. You can search for the new site by this name: LIVINGSTON WATSON WISCONSIN FAMILY
Just click on Join. If there are any issues, please contact me.
