Murray) Ux- bridge came to Canada from England. The same year an- other brother Lenard migrated to Australia and a brother and sister (Doris and James) re- mained in England. By 1930 the three Canadian Fosters had established themselves in this area. The first family re-union was held in 1980 with five pre- sent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Murray, Uxbridge. Each year since that time the gatherings have been held al- ternately in Greenbank and Ux- bridge, Last year at Green- bank it was decided that the gathering had out-grown the modern homes. Thanks to the Masonic Hall Board o Ux- bridge and the Wm. Murray fa- mily permission was granted to rent the fine new Banquet Hall and adjoining kitchen. As the families gathered and were "welcomed their names were placed in a box for later use and each found his or her tables formed in a "U" shape. Mr. Reg. Foster of Green- bank acted as Family Chairman. In a few well chosen remarks he welcomed all present and added that it was his wish that these gatherings would continue down through the future years with the younger members stepping in on the planning each year, Then he led in the sing- ing of the grace and all pre- sent enjoyed a bountiful turkey dinner. As the ladies cleared the tables and prepared tea and desert, carols' were sung with Lynne Foster at the piano and Peggy Foster leading, The evening was spent'play- ing cards, checkers and square dancing. Soon families pre- pared to depart with fathers carrying tired little ones and mothers and young adults ga- thering up dishes and left- overs. The New Year's wish for all was that the Worthwhile Things of Life would be sought and found by all in this new year of "64". In these times of turmoil, misunderstandings and prejudi- ces how better prepared can each member of a family be then to begin 64 with the heart- warmed best wishes from one's own family.
