Starting what will be an annual event in the McKee family, descendants of Jackson county pioneers, 56 members of the family assembled at McKee bridge forest park Sunday for their first picnic and reunion Particularly significant is the fact that the spot selected for the reunion bears the family name. The bridge spanning the Big Applegate river was built in 1917 near the Delbert McKee ranch, now owned by his grand son, Orie Phillips, and common usage gave it the present name. Three generations were rep resented at the picnic Sunday, and with the exception of one, each family member is a de scendant of the late John and Mary McKee, who came here from Missouri in the early 60 s. residing at Log Town for many years. Two sons and two daugh ters of the couple survive from a family of 14, and were present Sunday.
