Editor's note6

Natural Bridge, VA will be the site for the 2007 NALF reunion. Touted as one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World, Natural Bridge has had an illustrious history. It was once owned by Thomas Jefferson, who purchased 157 acres of land from King George III for 20 shillings, with Natural Bridge part of that purchase. Even earlier, in 1750, George Washington carved his initials into the stone while surveying the area for Lord Fairfax. Besides the wonder of the bridge itself, the area features other exciting sites, such as Monacan Village, a living history 18th century Indian village that dramatizes life in a typical Monacan Indian village 300 years ago. There is also the Drama of Creation, a sound and light show that presents the creation of the bridge in a dramatic, moving conglomeration of music and light. The bridge was first illuminated by order of President Calvin Coolidge, and now modern audiences can watch the mountains come alive in this marvelous show. Nature lovers will also enjoy the Cedar Creek Nature Trail, which winds a mile through the mountainous region and includes the 1500 year old Arbor Vitae Tree. Look for further information in upcoming newsletters as plans for next year's reunion are finalized.

77th Annual Lively League Reunion

On a sunny, hot Tuesday, July 4th , 2006, 259 descendants of George Pierce Lively and their guests enjoyed a Southern pit-cooked barbecue at Lively Pond in Shellbluff, Georgia. The festivities opened with Alex Lively calling all to the pavilion with the traditional blowing of the Conch Shell. Julian Lively called the gathering to order and Merv Waldrop led the group in pledging to the US and Georgia flags. The opening song, 'My Country 'Tis of Thee,' was led by Jane Lively, followed by a scripture reading and blessing of the meal by Dennis Dickey. Then the crowded headed for the lines forming around the delectably-laden tables and enjoyed food and fellowship. The meal was followed by the annual meeting conducted by Lively League officers. Among new items of business was the dedication of the new playground, a venue welcomed by the many youngsters who enjoyed sliding, swinging, and sand-castle building.

Things are Popping Up 'Lively' All Over

Tim Lively, NALF member from Shellbluff (Burke County) GA has been on a mission to uncover instances of the 'Lively' name cropping up in out-of-the-way places. On a recent trip to New York, Tim came across the grave of G. J. Lively at the Elmira Prison Camp in Elmira, NY. In his research, Tim discovered that Lively was a member of the CSA and belonged to Company K of Holcombe's South Carolina Legion. The cemetery in Elmira is adjacent to Woodlawn Cemetery, the location of Mark Twain's final resting place.

Tombstone of G. J. Lively, of Company K, Holcombe's South Carolina Legion, CSA, in Elmira Prison Camp gravesite

Tim also came across a street in Augusta, GA named 'Lively Street,' but was unable to find out for whom the street is named. In Burke County, there is also Claxton-Lively Road, named for the families who live along this rural stretch. This is also the road which leads to access to the Lively Pond, site of the traditional Lively League reunions.

An Internet search for the word 'Lively' also uncovers some interesting information. In Tallahassee, FL, there is a Lively Technical Center, founded by Lewis M. Lively in 1937. The school opened with 52 students and only two instructors, and now serves over 4500 students, with a faculty and staff of 150.

There is even a province in Ontario, Canada named after a 'Lively.' Lively, Ontario is a community near the Creighton nickel mines that was established in 1950 for workers at the mines by Charles Lively, a nickel company employee. The community is located in the city of Sudbury and is becoming a popular tourist destination. It is also home to the Anderson Farm Museum.
