A Family Reunion In 1997, a small group of Edie descendants decided it was time to organise a Re-union of the far-flung clan in New Zealand. It was held in Dunedin, during a January weekend, with a trip to Edievale on the Saturday. Most of the images in this selection are "low resolution" for ease and speed of download.

Russell Edie, MC, & one of the Organising Committee After Registering on the Friday evening, there was an opportunity for family to meet, catch up, & chat Alan Edie, Itinerary co-ordinator & one of the Organising Committee On the Saturday we moved into Central Otago   stopping first at the Museum in Lawrence For many it was welcome chance to stretch their legs and wait for others for whom it was a "comfort stop" Various Edie family members spent time living in Lawrence especially while completing part of their schooling Next it was onto Edievale, now just a remnant of the original village The highpoint of the Saturday   was at the Cemetary at Crookston where a Service was held   to re-Dedicate the Family Memorial   and to add to it a plaque commemorating the Re-union   Then it was time for lunch, at a local community Hall   Sunday morning was family group photos   and more family group photos And when it was all over, the Organising Committee breathed a sigh of relief, and went out for dinner!
