My great grandfather, William Ghrist was a brother to your Edward. My sister and her family live in West Newton, PA, as does my husband's brother! I live in Palm Beach Co., but grew up in Elizabeth, PA. I would love to see the pictures! My family and I used to always go to the Ghrist Reunions and I had tons of fun there. I think the last reunion I attended was in the 60's. Wow!

John:

I always look to come into contact with cousins in the extended family.....Good to hear from you....

I would believe that the John McFeeley you refer to is my uncle, my dad's youngest brother.

Edward Scott Ghrist is my great-grandfather. His daughter, Alice Walthour Ghrist (sister of Albert Strickland Ghrist) was my paternal grandmother....

I do have a lot on the Portzer side of things thanks to a wee bit of work by me and whole, and I do mean a whole, lot of work done by a Portzer cousin who is now deceased.

I am beginning to shift my attention in my efforts to the Ghrist family. I've come into contact with a another cousin whose great-grandmother was another of Edward/Malinda's children, Dora. We're sending info back and forth.

RE: ghrist reunions, I remember going to several in Greensburg with my Dad when my grandmother was still alive but that goes back to the early 60's....none since then...

Yes, I would love to share any info we can.

Contact me via email at <r.mcfeeley@attbi.com> with contact info for yourself and we can check it out.....

Edward had a daughter Dora May who married John Tilden Hayden. They had a daughter Catherine Matilda Hayden. She was my grandmother and she was married to Henry Elmer Steel. Any other information would be appreciated. Thanks, Kathy Gallagher Sader
