Hi, Please  send me the surnames  that you are interested in discussing by or before 4/15  &  I'll pass this on to Lea & she can bring her files of these names.  This way we can just introduce ourselves & then get started on exchanging of information  & won't have to state what names we are interested in & this will give us more time. Several people had suggested using Montgomery Community College so we would have access to the internet but only 3 people expressed an interest  in using MCC when I sent out an e-mail asking people which place they wanted to meet  so  we will go ahead & meet at Eldorado Community Bldg. again this year. This will be the 13th year that this reunion has been held in Eldorado, N.C. at the Eldorado  Community  Bldg. to exchange information & share stories. This year we will be meeting on Saturday April 26th at  10:00 am.  Also  you do not have to bring any food since this is the day that the Uwharrie Fire Dept. has their semi-annual BBQ  fund raiser. This year we will be discussing some of the other early settlers of Montgomery Co. beside the Harris family. The other lines are: Henderson, Hearne, Morgan, Smart, Dennis, Russell, Coggin[s], Taylor, Talbert [ Tolbert ], Hall, Grissom,  Morris,  Steed, Tucker,  Sanders  [ Saunders ], & Cranford . Also any other names that anyone would  like to bring up. Please let  me  know any other surnames that you want to add. Please  go the following web site to register  http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~westharris/   &  click on  Register for 12the annual gathering & then when you see Register flashing click on it & send your e-mail.
