103rd Reunion Announcement

This year will represent our 103rd year of assembling together as a family. To refresh your memory at the 100th anniversary we decided to not gather every year but to have 2 year meetings virtually by Zoom and then on the 3rd year have a face to face gathering. This year in 2026 we will have a face to face gathering. 

The 175 anniversary of the founding of the Rock Church and Cemetery happens to fall this year as well.   They are planning a celebration on September 12, with a rain date of the 13th, holding a church service, tour of the Cemetery, some presentations and a light luncheon.  Events start at 11:00 at the Rock Church outside Livingston, Wisconsin.

At the Zoom call in 2025, members suggested it would be a wonderful opportunity to hold our face to face reunion the same day. We thought we could attend the Church event and then in the evening go to a restaurant for a meal and have time for gathering of attendees. 

Mark these dates on your calendar!  We have pre-booked a few rooms at reduced rate for Friday, September 11 and Saturday, September 12 at the Quality Inns and Suites in Belmont/Platteville.  Dinner and an informal meeting will be held on Saturday evening September 12, at 5:00 pm, in a private room at Fiesta Cancun in Platteville.  If it rains we will meet Saturday evening and go to the Church event on Sunday, September 13th.   Contact us at our email, Livingston.watson.wi@gmail.com, by August 17, if you are interested in reserving a spot at the hotel.  Let us know your name, dates, and contact info.  Rooms are limited so  it is first come, first served.   If you have any questions, you can contact us at the email listed above. 

It is  our sincere hope that you and others in your family can join us on these dates. Keeping this tradition alive and on going is so important for our future generations. We would like to honor theme at the program in the evening.  A draft agenda will be sent later this summer.

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.
