Description
Black and white negative of a photograph showing members of the Lynde family and official dignitaries seated in front of the Lynde residence at 960 Dundas Street West on the north-west corner of Dundas Street and McQuay Blvd. The group is gathered on the occasion of a family reunion.
Notes
At the Lynde family reunion, a stone commemorating the settlement of Jabez Lynde was placed beside the house by Whitby Mayor, John W. Bateman. Other dignitaries present at the reunion included: Ontario Minister of Highways, George Henry; MPP, W.E.N. Sinclair; MP W.H. Moore; and Ontario County Sheriff, J.F. Paxton.

A metal box containing newspapers and coins was placed under the commemoration stone. In 1972, the stone was moved closer to the house so Dundas Street could be widened.
