I descend through Dennis Walden Sparks, a brother to your grandfather--Eugene Sparks. I have a rather large database on our Sparks family and will be glad to share any information you might need. I also have information on some of our other lines, including Hassell. You are probably already aware of the Sparks reunion to be held at the old Cragford School House starting at 10:00 a.m this coming Saturday. If not, sent me an e-mail, and I'll send you one of the announcements. I tried to e-mail you direct at your Yahoo address, but my message bounced. Were you at the reunion last year? I can't recall meeting you. Hope you can make it this year. We had a really large turn out last year; however, the weather may cause a lower attendance this year. Drop me a note and let me know what information you would like to have. Looking forward to hearing from you.
