Hello: Just to update all those interested in Mother Cumberland: A Harvest of
Memories: Reunion 2003".
Registrations are coming in from all across the Country - we receive two
today from Alaska.
It is amazing to see how the descendants of the Early Pennsylvania Families
have spread across the United States.
Many of you have contacted me regarding holding a get-together for your
particular surname during the reunion weekend.
Time has been set aside on Friday the 18th of July from 4-7pm.
Any surname can hold a get-together.
Several individuals have already reserved a classroom for their surname
gathering.
If you would like to host a surname gathering, please let me know.
Being a "host" would mean the following:
1. Contact me and reserve the classroom (no charge of course).
2. Decide the time during the 4-7pm time slot you would like your gathering
to be. Most people have requested a one-hour block of time, but you may
request longer if you like.
3. At the gathering you would call the group to order, announce the surname
being represented and allow those present to exchange data, contact
information with one another, etc. At the end of the time block, ask if they
want to meet again during that weekend. If so, have the group decide on a
time and place. You may want to bring a steno pad or notebook paper in case
people need it. That's all there is to it.
The surnames that have already confirmed with me are: (variations of
spellings are included within each surname).
Culbertson, Quigley, Kerr, Kell(e)y, Beelman, Young, Brady.
Several others are pending.
So, load up the wagon, hitch up the team, and head on home to Mother
Cumberland.
Don't forget, bring the family and enjoy a weekend back where your ancestors
lived, worked, fought & prayed.
Thanks for all your help!
Donna
