Wednesday December 17th Uncle Howard Celebrated his 100th birthday at the Newnan Country Club with friends and family. Here are a few pictures of this memorable event. Website Update: I have updated the section on our Demopolis Alabama roots as well as a few old pictures the hallway and music room of the 45 College Street homestead, but am behind on updating the family tree page. I have set up a WebLog (blog) so that we can have a forum to communicate family events and happending more easily. Please try it out and pass the word on to other family members so we can get some momentum on it. It does require registration, but you can change your password once you have registered.
