The summertime Fisher Family Reunion will be held on 4 August 2012 at the Lake Toxaway
Community Center in beautiful Lake Toxaway, Transylvania Co, NC. Please begin arriving
about 11 a.m. Lunch will be enjoued about noon. There will be no business meeting.
This reunion is for the descendants of James Washington Fisher, Sr. and his two wives,
Mary Hollon/Holson and Nancy Evins/Ivins.
Please bring a covered dish or two (ice and paper goods/plastic ware will be provided),
old family photos/memorabilia, a family history tri-board, etc. and a desire to learn more
about the history of our Fisher family. Let's make this more than a meet/greet/eat! A
freewill offering will be collected for the maintenance of the Lake Toxaway Baptist Church
cemetery, formerly the Fisher Graveyard, and for the rental of the community center. If
you play a musical instrument and would like to perform, kindly bring your instrument.
There is a piano available.
After lunch, there will be a genealogical presentation and historical update on new
finds. There will be a question and answer session. There will be visits to two local
cemeteries where many of our ancestors are buried.
This reunion is not intended to be a replacement for the September reunion which will be
held on September 8th, but rather a supplement to the traditional reunion. Some of our
family members do not live nearby and cannot attend in September due to children being in
school, sports, etc. We would like to accommodate them with a more convenient date which
will coincide with their summer schedule. ALL Fisher descendants, locally and from out of
town, are invited and encouraged to attend.
