Fathers Day Napkin Rings
Father's Day is a celebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. In Catholic Europe,
it has been celebrated on March 19 (St. Joseph's Day) since the Middle Ages. This celebration was brought by the Spanish and Portuguese to Latin
America, where March 19 is often still used for it, though many countries in Europe and the Americas have adopted the U.S. date, which is the third
Sunday of June. In the United States, Father's Day has been celebrated since the early 20th century.
Father's Day was not celebrated in the US, outside Catholic traditions, until the 20th century. As a civic celebration in the US, it was inaugurated in the
early 20th century to complement Mother's Day by celebrating fathers and male parenting.
After Anna Jarvis' successful promotion of Mother's Day in Grafton, West Virginia, the first observance of a "Father's Day" was held on July 5, 1908, in
Fairmont, West Virginia, in the Williams Memorial Methodist Episcopal Church South, now known as Central United Methodist Church. Grace Golden
Clayton was mourning the loss of her father, when in December 1907, the Monongah Mining Disaster in nearby Monongah killed 361 men, 250 of
them fathers, leaving around a thousand fatherless children. Clayton suggested that her pastor Robert Thomas Webb honor all those fathers.
Clayton's event did not have repercussions outside Fairmont for several reasons, among them: the city was overwhelmed by other events, the
celebration was never promoted outside the town itself and no proclamation of it was made by the city council. Also, two events overshadowed this
event: the celebration of Independence Day July 4, 1908, with 12,000 attendants and several shows including a hot air balloon event, which took over
the headlines in the following days, and the death of a 16-year-old girl on July 4. The local church and council were overwhelmed and they did not
even think of promoting the event, and it was not celebrated again for many years. The original sermon was not reproduced by the press and it was
lost. Finally, Clayton was a quiet person, who never promoted the event and never talked to other persons about it.
