Hi Nina, I'm sorry for the delay in responding to your question but just got back from vacation. I had an engagement party when I got married. My mother hosted the party in her home. She used love and flowers as the theme for the party. The guests included immediate family, wedding party people including those who I had asked to sing. We had a late afternoon meal followed by gifts and cake. In fact my mother didn't know what to have written on the cake--as no one we knew had had an engagement party either--so she put "ah love". This has begun an ongoing joke in our family over the "olive" cake. I hadn't really intended to have people bring gifts but some people insisted. I just wanted to have a little gathering to sort of kick-off the "wedding planning season." That's all I can think of. Good luck, Sharon Wilson KAT3946429@aol.com wrote: > Hi, everyone.

Am looking for my gr grfather, William Preston Monday's, parents. WPMonday's death certificate states that he was born in Knox County in 1830. It does not have his father's name, only that he was in Knox County but it does show his mother's maiden name Bissell ( it may be mispelled) and that she was from Knox County. However, I do not if the person supplying this info was correct. Any info would be appreciated. CMW12635@aol.com wrote: > MONDAY > YOUNG > MURPHY > GILLIAM > > C.

How do you do Knox County Mailing list. Per roll call, I'm sending from Wichita Kansas. We are searching for ours present day Coffman Cousins in counties near Knox. We were there in June to a Connected Cousins Conference in east Knoxville at Hall's Camp grounds near Powell's Station. There are lots of Cousins in Grainger Co. but do not know how to reach them. Will be back in June of 2002, maybe same place. If you see any Coffman's in the Area Please tell them that some of the Cousins that had to move away are coming back looking to meet them. And we are willing to come a far piece to do so. Our best to you, Carl Coffman Wichita Kansas b. 1933 near old Indian Terr in Okla. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
