Many of the founding families of Westmoreland County, Indiana County & Franklin Counties in Pennsylvania originated in Cumberland County, Pa. If your ancestor is one of those who originally lived in Cumberland County, this announcement is for you. The Brady Family heritage Association is hosting: "Home Again - Celebrating the Harvest Together" a reunion for any and all families who lived in Cumberland County, PA during the 1700's. The reunion is being held in Shippensburg, PA, July 4-5-6, 2003. All descendants of all early familes are invited to attend. Time and locations will be provided for individual families who want to hold their own meetings/activities in conjunction with the weekend. Our ancestors were neighbors, so let us all gather Home together and celebrate our proud heritage together. The Theme is Thanksgiving/Harvest Time & activities will coincide with this theme. A tentative schedule of events is as follows: Friday - genealogy seminar 9:00am - 3:30 - a variety of classes on genealogy + classes on the various families. Friday evening - dinner together, historical re-enactments, etc, genealogy & historical displays, etc. Revolutionary War re-enactors will teach us. Saturday - all day at the Old Brady Homestead (an original log homestead built abt 1745 by Hugh & Hannah Brady, a place where many of the community gathered. You may be walking on the land where your ancestors actually walked, located on the Conodoquinet Creek.) Revolutionary War re-enactors, bagpiper, lots & lots of genealogy & history, covered wagon rides, pony rides, lots of games & activities for the children, recording of family histories, individual family & group photos for posterity, sharing of heirlooms, etc. Saturday evening - dinner & re-enactments & campfire program at the Homestead. Sunday - each family is welcome to attend the Church service and hold a memorial service at their ancestor's graves. BBQ lunch back at the Homestead for all, farewells, final sharing of genealogy, etc. We would like to get info out to all the descendants of these early families.
