July 17, 2010 Moon-Perrett Reunion
Time is tickin' and the Moon-Perrett Reunion will be here before we know it. I've heard from many out of town relatives who plan to attend. Please pass the information on to all the relatives in "your neck of the woods" so that we don't miss anyone. This promises to be a fun-packed day for all of us. Don't forget your HUGE picnic basket filled with goodies and drinks. We hope to make a day of it and those who want can visit the Snow Camp house, the cemetery where many of the Perretts are buried and then the Sword of Peace that night. There is a restaurant at the Sword of Peace also - in case you are tired of picnic foods by nighttime.
YOU GUYS ARE COMING HOME!!!! WE'RE SO THANKFUL FOR FAMILY!

July will be here before you realize!
I plan to send a bulk email again after Easter - reminding everyone of the Snow Camp Reunion in Snow Camp on July 17, 2010.
I have found badminton equipment as well as several other outdoor games for the younger set to enjoy while we oldies sit around and talk about the good old days!
The Sword of Peace schedule for 2010 is also out and I will attach that in case your family wants to view that. There is also a restaurant at the Sword of Peace if you are tired of reunion food by that night.
Life is good!

Inez Johnson Waller - Our 100 year old young relative
This week I received a real treat in my mailbox - a letter from one of our relatives, Inez Johnson Waller, who was born August 3, 1909 - YES, that makes her 100. Ina B. gave her my name and contact information. Ina's daughter, Paula lives about an hour drive away from her. She currently resides at Green Ridge Gilliland Manor 210 Big Spring Road # 109 Newville, PA 17241. She lived in Asheville for 72 years, her husband passed in 1985 and she moved to Carlisle in 2001 to be near Nancy.
Jesse Taylor Johnson was her grandfather (married Louise Jane Carter) . Son William Hampton Johnson was her father - he married Alice Melvin in 1906. Sallie Sarah (Johnson) Perrett who was my great grandmother was Jesse Taylor Johnson's sister.
Inez was looking for pictures of her grandfather's siblings and I do have a few shots, plus information from the family tree, so I've printed off the information and am sending to her today. Inez tells me she had only two sisters, neither of whom never married. One sister, Jewel, and Inez were born in Gibsonville and lived in Greensboro most of the time. Inez's parents are buried at Pleasant Hill Cemetery (Snow Camp, but a Liberty address). Inez used to go to the Johnson reunions and she remembers Sarah McPherson from Snow Camp who took her to visit some of the cousins on her father's side. She remembers visiting Flossie (Moon) Bare also.
I think it is wonderful that she has made contact and if you are reading this blog, I encourage you to write to her. She's a remarkable lady. BLESSINGS INEZ!!

Thomas McBane June Carol Mc Bane Lena Moon - Black & White Memories
It has snowed here twice in the past week, so I've been into the old folders that mom had with black and white negatives. You can scan and invert the photo and actually get a pretty good shot of things.
This is Lena Moon - Thomas McBane and June Carol McBane. A shot of Thomas on the bike and Lena Moon on the porch waving. Thomas and June Carol from a front view.
Thomas passed recently - and I know there was a reunion in heaven. Whisper a prayer for his wife, Sugar and his boys, Tommy and Richard. Rest in Peace, Thomas!
