Thanks for the reminder, Danny, and all the work Peggy Tate and others have done. This is a special invitation to meet Kokomo John, Arkansas Ira, me and others that have connections with the SISSOM family at the the library, WSat. 26 May, oh, let's say about 10:00. Bring your laptop, files, d/b, whatever and we'll try to nail down some more connections of which we know there are many. This includes, Parkers, Simmons, Taylors, Bashams, Perrys, Fustons, Byfords, Carricks, Coopers, Cresons, Dukes, Jernigans, Mullins, Sapps, Sprys, Swangers, Tindells, Williams, just to name a few. This meeting gives us an opportunity to share info and family history on a 1st hand basis. See you in 10 days! Joe Danny Nichols wrote: > This is to the many readers and posters of this site.
