On Sunday, August 15, 1971 one hundred twenty-six relatives, descendants, offspring and in-law of the late August and Bertha Soderberg gathered at Chapman Park in Stanley for a reunion.

Of the original August Soderberg family, Ted Soderberg of Peshtigo and Esther (Soderberg) Stewart are the two survivors. Those who have passed away are: William, Amanda (Soderberg) Brown, Emma (Soderberg) Glasshof, Art Soderberg, Eva (Soderberg) Grace, Chester and Charles Soderberg.

The afternoon was pleasantly enjoyed by all, as in many instances cousins present hadn't seen each other for twenty years.
