At the 2004 Rennels Family Reunion in Charleston, Coles County, Illinois - we voted to sponsor a website concerning our family. The Reunion pays for it, so it is free to the members, but it is a private website and you must apply to become a member by contacting the administrator, David Kent Coy, President of the Rennels Family Reunion, at davidkentcoy@mcleodusa.net The Rennels Family is descended from John Rennels, Sr. (1781-1866) and his wife, Nancy Ewing Bland Rennels (1787-1867). They had 13 children and about 72 grandchildren and thousands of other descendants. Their children and grandchildren married into almost all the pioneer families of Hutton Township, Coles County, Illinois - so we are also interested in hearing from genealogists, historians, and people interested in the Hutton Township area. The Rennels Family supposedly traveled from Sussex County, Delaware, to Madison County, Kentucky to Lawrence County, Indiana, to Vermillion County, Indiana, before they ended up in Hutton Township. If you are interested, please email me at the email address above and indicate your connection to the Rennels Family or specify your interest in a pioneer family of the Hutton Township area. We are NOT trying to be exclusive, but do want to protect the site from unwanted problems. Actually the more members, the more successful the site can become and more information can be shared. The name of the website is RENNELS FAMILY REUNION, powered by www.myfamily.com which can take you to a public sign-on site, which will be directed back to me as the administrator, so you can be invited to join. It's an easy to use site with the capabilities of posting photographs, drawings, GEDCOM files, text, documents, recipes, our family newsletter, Five Mile House news, and more. Please contact me if you are interested. Thanks, David Kent Coy Rennels Reunion President davidkentcoy@mcleodusa.net --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
