In 1913, Charles Lewis Boone married Elisabeth Carolyn Jackson. After the deaths of Josie and Charles, Homer and Elizabeth were married in 1933. The families of the sixteen children that came from these marriages gathered on Saturday August 21, 2004 at Greenbrier State Forest for their annual reunion. We started having these reunions in 1969 and this was one of the biggest that we've had. Over 150 people were there, ranging in age from 5-month-old Remington Boggs to 88-year-old Iva (Boone) Hall and coming from West Virginia, Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina, New York, Delaware and Pennsylvania. Our annual newsletter (which was given to everyone in attendance) says it all: "We are a typical American family in the 21st century. We are ordinary people. No one has written a bestseller, no one has been elected to a high government office. But, we are remarkable people in that we are strong people. doing the best we can, taking care of one another and contributing to out communities. The children of Homer Kite & Josie (Honaker) Morgan are all deceased now. They were Herman Morgan of Newport News, Virginia; Edward Morgan of Ronceverte, West Virginia; Weller Homer Morgan, died as infant; Thelma (Morgan) Howard of Ronceverte, West Virginia Charlotte (Morgan) Reed of Ronceverte, West Virginia; Wallace Morgan of Ronceverte, West Virginia and Annabel (Morgan) Johnson of Princeton, West Virginia. Five of the children of Charles Lewis & Elizabeth (Jackson) Boone are still living and were all at the reunion. Charlie and Elizabeth's children were Iva (Boone) Hall of Hinton, West Virginia; Edward Boone of Hinton, West Virginia; Alice Boone of Hinton, West Virginia; Ralph Boone-killed in World War II; Alfred Boone of Georgetown, Delaware and Roy Boone of Hinton, West Virginia. The children of Homer and Elizabeth (Boone) Morgan were all in attendance too. They are Sterling Morgan of Lewisburg, West Virginia; Barbara (Morgan) Scott of Wilmington of Hinton, West Virginia. From the combination of Morgan/Boones we now boast a total of 358 family members. As part of the annual reunion, we have an auction of items-some family-related, others just fun or craft things. One popular item this year was a picture of Hughey Lewis Boone with a copy of a hand-written note where he gave permission for his daughter, Sarah Boone, to marry Josph Franklin Honaker. Sarah & Joseph Franklin Honaker were the parents of Josie (Honaker) Morgan. Another item that was bid on by a lot of people was a picture taken in 1951 at the house of Homer & Elizabeth Morgan, that showed 37 of the family members. Just to show how we are a family that stays together-- of the 37 people in the picture, 25 of them are still living and 20 of them were in attendance at this year's reunion. This year we added a special activity. Ed Morgan (one of the children of Homer & Josie Morgan) was well-known for his feat of standing on his head and he entertained us at many of our earlier reunions - still able to stand on his head until he was over 80-years-old. In honor and memory of Ed, we started a club this year for anyone who wanted to try to accomplish this feat. Many people tried - from the age of about 8 to over 40 - and Zachary Morgan (grandson of Victor Morgan) was the winner of the first-annual contest, with Jason Zickafoose (grandson of Letha (Reed) Baker being a close runner-up. This is just one more way to make the reunion fun for everyone! Our next reunion will be the 3rd Saturday of August 2005 at Greenbrier State Forest. We welcome anyone who has any connection to the Morgan/Boones to join us for a fun day. -Hinton News, October 5, 2004, transcribed by Rhonda Holton
