    • GORMAN FAMILY REUNION
      http://www.rootsweb.com/~txharris/hcgs4.htm#5
      Mrs. Norma Gorman Wright, of Green Mountain Falls, Colorado, writes of the Gorman family reunion, the week-end of June 20, at the Community Center in Van, TX. Attendees celebrated descent from C. Y. Gorman (1867-1935) and his wife, Lucy (Shaddock) Gorman (1875-1967), whose ten children all lived to adulthood and had families of their own.
      The original couple grew up near Hallsville and Woodlawn, where they were married in 1897. C. Y. Gorman's parents were James W. and Mary Delafield Gorman. Mary [Lucy] was one of five children left orphaned by the death of parents in 1879 and 1881, whereupon they were raised by her paternal uncle, Richard Ira Shaddock and his wife, Sarah Koon Shaddock. In 1906 the Gormans moved to Kiowa County, Oklahoma, where they remained. Their three boys were successful business men, and the seven girls became teachers, musicians and artists.
      Of the ten children, three survive, and were at the reunion: Mrs. Lucy Gorman Hines, of Tyler; Mrs. Mayme Gorman Barton, of Grapeland, and T. Vernon Gorman of Eagle Nest, New Mexico. Four generations of Gorman families, and cousins attended the weekend festivities planned in detail by Mrs. Vinita (Gorman) Hudgens of Van, and her family. In all, about 60 relatives attended the reunion, from seven states besides Texas. Events included side trips, as well as catching up on family history.
