We had our annual Kitchin Family Reunion yesterday in Ringoes and had a
great time despite the clouds.

One of my uncles produced an old photo which had belonged to my
grandmother, Viola Kitchin Moore. It showed a large crowd of folks
dressed in their Sunday best. Gents with long whiskers, ladies in big
hats, small boys with straw hats..... and at the bottom of the picture
was a caption "1822 - Van Dolah Reunion - 1902". Someone familiar with
the area suggested that the Van Dolah name was a reference to a school.
The clothing on the people in the picture looks to be from the 1910-1920
period and I thought perhaps it was a reunion of folks might have all
attended the school during the period of 1822 until 1902.

Anyone familiar with the name? I can scan in the picture when I receive
it from my uncle.
