The Kerby-Connolly-Whytsell reunion was held yesterday at Jim and Juanita Bell's on Phillips Run near Grantsville. "They came out of the woodwork," said Jim, who with Duck Stevens fried fish for his own family. "Look at that food. What a spread!" he exclaimed.
The Connollys go back to the Village of Richardson. "Few will remember old Doc Connolly, who treated the folks in that area in the late 1800's up to about 1920," said Randall Whytsell. He and son left Richardson for Parkersburg. The Kerbys and the Whytsells, they were all over the place years ago.
