    The Hartley Reunion - October 28, 1902

    The descendants of Jos. M. HARTLEY, Sr., held a family reunion Saturday, Oct. 25, near the old home place, just north of Winfield, IL. It was held in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Clayton HARTLEY, of Oregon, who went away from here 38 years ago and have never been back since until now. Of the eight children still living only four were present: Jos. M. HARTLEY, Jr., Henry HARTLEY, Clayton HARTLEY and Mrs. M. A. LUSK.

    There were 61 people present, all of whom are descendants. In the evening they all gathered at the residence of W. A. WILLIS, WHERE THE WHOLE FAMILY WAS PHOTOGRAPHED.

    Jos. HARTLEY, Sr. was at one time pastor of the Primitive Baptist Church in Horse Prairie. He moved to Oregon about 20 years ago, where he spent the remainder of his life.
