Don't forget our Dutch Cousins reunion to be in Harrodsburg KY September 23-25, 2005. Deadline for the discounted registration is just a few days away – so if you have been procrastinating, better send it in quick. We now have 250 names and addresses in our Dutch Cousins database, including 118 on the email list. A colony of Low Dutch settlers – 50 families in all – first came to Mercer County KY in 1781 from Conewago Colony in Pennsylvania. Banta, Bergen, Bodine, Brewer, Demaree, Dorland, Duree, Cosart, Cozine, Monfort, Rider, Shuck, Smock, Terhune, VanArsdale, Van Nuys, Voris, Vorhees, Westervelt/Westerfield are some of the surnames associated with the Kentucky Low Dutch Settlers. Our group adopted the term “Low Dutch” to distinguish themselves as being from the low countries of Holland and Europe instead of Germany. Plan to bring your whole family – aunts, uncles, grandparents, grandchildren, cousins, and all — to stay at least three days Friday September 23 through Sunday the 25th. You won’t want to miss a minute of what we have planned for you. Please register as soon as possible to be admitted to all the special events. Registration is only $15 each if mailed before July 15th, and $5 for spouse or companion. For more info email Buffalo234@aol.com.
