I am in the same McClain family with Simon Banister; so, if you are in his family you are in mine. I organized the McClain Reunion in S.C. in 1982. We held it in S.C. for 21 years and had to move it to Georgia last year. This year will be our 23rd. I will be happy to send more information, but I will need your snail mail address.
