This reunion of the descendants of John Richard Whitehead and Sallie Hunt Graves Whitehead was held in 1909 at the Whitehead home, 335 South Main Street, Chatham, Virginia. The building now serves as a hospitality and meeting facility for Chatham Hall, and is called "The House of Laird." At the time of the 1909 reunion, the structure had its original Italianate exterior. A few years later a Neoclassical portico and galleried porch were added.
