Gosh, I hate having to miss the reunion. I think it is WONDERFUL that there are going to be 40 there! If you see any of my Mabry cousins there or Copeland cousins, or Moore cousins - be sure to give them my new name and e-mail address! Have the best time ever!!!!! Judy, I understand about the Oklahoma tornado - my older daughter lives 2 blocks from the worst devastation in Moore, and we are just greatful they are alive! Sorry I can't help with your Coles, but hang in there - someone will come up with a connection one of these days. Maradee, your mother was the most wonderful person. I never got to meet her in person, but she helped me with my early start in Union Parish genealogy, and she wrote an article about my great-grandmother, Catherine Henry Cook Mabry, that I treasure. If you have any of her articles that you don't mind being on the internet, I would be so happy to put them on the Union Parish GenWeb Archives. Please let me know. Happy Reunion, guys! Can't wait to hear all the exciting tales of this great weekend! Karen Mabry Rice
