Buxton Cousin Reunion 2011

Von's Buxton cousins met in Tremonton this past Saturday. They are grandchildren of Frederick and Alice Ann Buxton, who had 8 children....Joe, Gene, Mary, Don, Theona, Teresa, Thelma, and Odeen. Theona, Teresa, and Thelma died young, and Gene did not have children.
Norma Ann and Loralee planned the catered luncheon, held at an LDS stake pavillion. Dwayne brought questions about family members and all shared experiences and stories. Weather was perfect, so a great time had by all.
