Hi Gang! I'm back. We had a terific time at the Daniel-McCoy-Stapleton Millenium Reunion this past weekend held at West Union,Oh July 29,2000. There was approximately 65 in attendance including 6 newcomers from as far away as Michigan. Then it was off to W. Va, Va, and North Carolina for some serious research. While at the reunion I took lots of pictures which I'm begining to put on the website. While at the reunion, I was treated to something really special. I was shown the Memorial Record from the funeral of my Great - Great Grandfather Daniel Jasper Daniel who passed away October 03, 1936 in Ashland,Ky. There are a lot of familiar surnames to all you researchers and I have posted his obituary on the website. I was able to pick up on a line of the Daniel family that remained in Wayne Co.,NC and also we finnaly found out who my wife's Great-Great-Great Grandparents were, which was the main reason for going to Wayne Co. I'm going to wait and post the Daniel research when I'm certain of the connection. Right now it's iffy. All in all the 1440 mile trip was great and the sights of the Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains were beautiful. But like they say" There's no place like home".
