WILES FAMILY
HOLDS ITS AN
NUAL REUNION
Representatives of One of the Pio
neer Families of the West En
joy Their Meeting Here.
From Friday's Daily
There were gathered in this city
yesterday some 120 descendents and
members of one of the earliest famil
ies in this portion of the great west,
the Wiles family, for their annual
meeting, where they enjoyed the
time in visiting and renewing the
pleasant associations of their family
relationship.
This family have their descent from
Thomas Wiles and wife who came
from their home in Indiana in the
forties to make their home in the
pioneer state of Iowa and settled in
Mills county near where the present
city of Glenwood is located and
where many of the family still re
side.
As the family grew up and the pio
neer spirit inspired, many of them
moved to various localities in this
section of the west, a large number
coming to Cass county, Nebraska,
where their family has been among
the most prominent and active in the
county and had a large part in the
making of the west.
In recent years it has been the
custom of the family to meet each
year and discuss their family ties,
the accomplishments of the year and
the growing list of the membership
of the family tree that has now ac
cumulated many branches through
marriage among the leading families
of the counties of Cass and Mills.
The reunion this year was held in
Garfield park in this city, which made
a most attractive spot for the gath
ering and one that afforded plenty of
shade for the picnic party and from
where they might enjoy a wonderful
view of the great Missouri valley and
across to the neighboring state of
Iowa where their ancestor had first
settled in the great west.
There was no formal program held
this year by the family at the re
union, although one is to be planned
for next year when th reunion will
again be held in this 'city as a cen
tral point for the various members
of the family.
At the meeting, Thomas Wiles, the
eldest of the family present, and one
of the prominent residents of this
city, gave a resume of the family his
tory, the many incidents of the past
in which the members of the family
have participated that have helped to
make history for Nebraska and Iowa.
Searl S. Davis was also present and
gave a very interesting talk on the
ideals that had dominated the Wiles
family in their lives, the things that
had enabled them to make progress
for their family and for themselves
in the community in which they had
cast their lot.
The reunion elected the following
officers to serve for the coming year:
President Charles H. Warner.
Vice President, Will T. Adams.
Secretary Luke L. Wiles.
Treasurer Thomas Wiles.
At the noon hour the members of
the family joined in a big family
dinner at which all of the good
things from the homes were found
in the baskets that were unloaded
and furnished the basis for the feast
fit for a king.
In the late afternoon a horseshoe
pitching contest was held in which
Lawrence Wise of Weeping Water,
who has a statewide reputation, was
one of the shining lights, as well as
Harold and Aaron Wiles. Mike
Tritsch and George Sayles also visit
ed the reunion to seek some enter
tainment in the horseshoe pitching
line and were readily accommodated
by the members of the Wales family
and many interesting matches stag
