Letter from 2014 CT Chapter Leader

Dear families,

As the beautiful coastal areas of Connecticut come to life and the excitement heats up, time rapidly approaches for the 39th Roots of Edenton family reunion.  We are sincerely looking forward to hosting and welcoming our families from near and far.

From the day you receive this package, let us be reminded of the 2014 theme: “The Unity Circle”.  We descendants must always stay connected to our ancestors in order to continue to build a legacy of power.  As old and not so old family members are passing on, let us think of them as we let everything that brings about separation between us also pass on.  What cannot bend will break; this “Roots of Edenton” family reunion will not be broken.  I believe we will wear this theme and emblem proudly on our t-shirts.

The 2014 Connecticut reunion will be held in an area that boasts an abundance of outdoor activities and adventures, famous memorable attractions and premier gaming and entertainment at the Mohegan Sun and Foxwood casinos.  Our host hotel and picnic grounds are just minutes away from both casinos.

We look forward to hearing from you soon in response to the information in this packet.  Early bird registrants will receive a complimentary raffle ticket if registration materials and payments are submitted by May 1st, 2014.  A raffle ticket qualifies you to participate in the drawing, which will be conducted at the family reunion banquet. 

Further information can be found at the “Roots of Edenton” family reunion website (www.rootsofedenton.org).  To learn more about the casinos, and things to do in the surrounding areas, go to (www.mystic.org).  We hope that this wonderful event, hosted by the Connecticut chapter, will be memorable and full of experiences our families will savor for many years to come.  God bless and stay healthy and well.

Yours truly,
Carolyn E.T. Hanna

CT Chapter Leader

I am unable to come to the reunion this year but I hope to make the reunion the next time it is in Edenton. I am a Somerset Place descendant, but I am also a descendant of the Gillian/Gilliam, Wills, and Granby/Gramby families from Bertie and Chowan Counties (along with relatives in the surrounding counties). Furthermore, 23andMe showed me that I am most likely a descendant from the Murdough family (thus how I connected with Michelle a couple of years ago). I hope the reunion this summer is a success, and I hope to meet everyone in the future.

I love family reunions, especially when I get to meet my younger cousins, nephews and nieces. I want to be updated to what is happening on their young lives. We love to share pieces of advice with regard to their future plans. These include what particular schools that match their degree preferences. As the eldest cousin, I can give them some suggestions which they can take or not.
