He will also have his books available for purchase on that day. There will be a short business meeting following Dr. Pruitt's presentation. Lunch will then be catered in the Meeting Room there at the Morman Church. This lunch is included in the registration fee. After lunch, you may again stay and exchange information with others, or go to the Pitt County Courthouse, Sheppard Memorial Library or Joyner Library. Transportation will be provided.

Roger indicated that the Reunion committee will be meeting in a few days and more details will be annouced at that time. We are very fortunate to be able to have Dr. Bradley and Dr. Pruitt as speakers this year. Some of you may have had the pleasure of hearing Dr. Pruitt speak on the Tennessee Land Fraud last year at the Dobbs County Reunion. If you wish send any of your family information for our Vertical Files, or update information that you have put in the files in the past, please mail it to : Pitt County Family Researchers PO Box 20339 Greenville, NC 27858 Checks for registration fees and reservations may also be sent to the address above. We did not have a Reunion last year so Iwe certainly look forward to seeing everyone this October. This is our tenth birthday, and this one should be extra special! Brenda Stocks NC-PCFR List Adm.
