| These are slides I took at the Baird Family Reunion, probably in 1982, at the United Methodist Church in Shannon, Georgia. Our reunions were usually on Labor Day in recent years but before that was usually around the time of my grandmother's (Ieula Ann Dick Baird) birthday on March 5. The trees are bare so it doesn't look like Labor Day. So until I am corrected I'll place it on March 5. <smile> I remember that I did something extraordinary for this reunion; I made a butter roll! It was delicious. It is a family recipe from Sheila's family. I scanned these pictures from slides and posted them on Facebook on January 19, 2010.  |

BTW I'm the guy taking the pictures so I'm not in any of 'em. It makes me sad to realize how many we've lost since this picture was taken. They've left a great legacy.
Beth Shaw
I don't see me.
Terrell Shaw
I wonder where you were. Unless there's a stray slide somewhere, I don't think you were in any of the pictures.
Ruth Baird Shaw
I did not see Jane in the picture?
Terrell Shaw
I don't see any of the Lathems in the pics,
Jessica Renee Roberts
I'm the little girl with Marian Savage
Jane Baird Lathem

Terrell Shaw

Jane Baird Lathem
BTW, where was this reunion? I don't recognize the area.
Terrell Shaw
I think ?? it is at that church in Rockmart where we had several reunions. On the Van Wert side of town, maybe a half mile off 278. ?? [Later Note: James Baird points out below that this reunion was at Shannon Methodist Church!]
David Savage
Great pics
Michael Baird
this picture looks like the church yard in shannon
Ruth Baird Shaw
It is the Baptist church in on the Van Wert side of Rockmart. The church where Vek was a member and where her funeral was held. As Terry said, we had several family reunions there.
Randy is holding Josh and David is holding Amanda. So the picture is the year after Amanda was born ?
I do not remember whether this was after we started the Labor Day Reunions or when we still had them in March (near Mama's birthday)???
James Baird
This is the Methodist church in Shannon.
Ruth Baird Shaw
Well James, you should know. Thanks for clearing it up. It jogged my memory. I see Julia, Bobbie and Margaret...also Billie and Ralph. Are you in the picture James? But Billie and Ralph always comes to the reunions and Bobbie and Margaret did as long as they lived and were able. James and Tim used to sing for Mama after Terry go "too old." They were all "too old" to sing at reunions when they reached teen age.
James Baird
I am not in the picture. We had to leave before it was taken.
