2009 Mississippi Gordy Reunion

Current as of 3 May 2009
We will gather on Saturday June 27 at the Decedar Church Fellowship Hall at 10:00 A.M. (Directions and a map to the Church is available.) On Sunday June 28, 2008 we will start about the same time at Fred and Eileen’s house. (Directions to their house will be available at the church on Saturday…it’s not far from Decedar.)

The formal program will be on Saturday June 27 and will include updates on family research and the DNA project. We are also planning some new local Mississippi information about where we were in the last quarter of the 1800's and the early 1900's. We will have morning coffee and snacks ready at 10:00. The Saturday mid-day meal will be an old-fashioned “Dinner on the Ground.” Everyone please bring a dish. All the eating utensils, ice, water, soft drinks and coffee will be provided.

Sunday will offer unstructured time for visiting, rocking on the porch, exploring the area, and finishing projects e.g. searching and entering genealogy information, scanning pictures. Mid-day meal will be leftovers from Saturday and plus added goodies. The computer and scanning equipment will be set up and it will also be possible to check internet information on Sunday, as there is a wireless network available. Please email Eileen at eileen@gordyfamily.org if you will be bringing pictures to scan so I will be ready. Thanks!

The Mississippi reunion is sponsored by the descendants of William D. Gordy (b. abt 1824 Hancock County GA, d. 13 Jan 1898 Newton County MS), PeterI/PeterII/Leonard/WilliamM. /WilliamD.
