**STATEMENT OF INTENT**
This is an open invitation to attend the 2nd annual
homecoming/reunion of our pioneer families that settled, lived, raised their
children, and sometimes died in this area. Some sank deep roots and others
moved on, scattering our ancestors from coast to coast. Our purpose is to
have fun, get acquainted, and swap
genealogical information. The above is a list of the families which we know
for sure had ties in early East Tennessee and the ones we have some
information on. However, ALL surnames are welcome to attend whether
your name is listed here or not! There will be a wealth of information to
share. Plan on attending please! We Do Need A Head Count though as to NOT
overbook the Park. (Numbers of persons coming that is what needed). We would
love to have volunteers for some of the surnames on the list to act as
co-hosts/co-hostesses to greet and help people with their surname, to be
made to feel welcome and to help them meet researchers working on the same
surnames. We want everyone to have fun, feel welcomed, and enjoy themselves.
**That's What Tennessee Stands For: THE VOLUNTEER STATE ** "Where pride
walks and the flag flies!"**
We know that we have some college instructors attending who perhaps can be
persuaded to speak about history/genealogy. We also have experts and
accredited
genealogist who have been researching for 30 plus years. They are ready to
share their information with us.
----------------------
Attendance is FREE . . . but we will have a "donation" jar to offset the
cost for using the campground, tableware, entertainment, and clean up.
----------------------
PLEASE PLAN ON ATTENDING AND BRING:
1. First and foremost yourselves...
2. ALL BOOKS, BIBLES, PICTURES, FAMILY SHEETS, AND
INFORMATION YOU HAVE AVAILABLE...
3. A covered dish to share. (For those who are traveling
some distance and for whom this is not a feasible
option, you may either bring a sack lunch or a non-
perishable or deli item that can be picked up at last
minute locally.
4. Drinks, ice chest
5. A chair or blanket to sit on...If you are serving as
a host or hostess, you will also need a small table
(card table size or larger) to display your family
information on.
--------------------------
Last year was our first attempt to pull all these early settlers'
descendants together. As far as we knew, it had never been attempted before.
It was a resounding success for a first attempt, and it was agreed that it
should become an annual event. This area is so very rich in history, both as
an Indian frontier and as an isolated jewel of Union sympathy during the
Civil War. It also served as a departure point for westward movement and new
settlement. Our ancestors left us a rich heritage, which we are striving to
preserve and pass on to our children and grandchildren. This rich
tapestry of ideals and values is what made us a great nation and what made
each of us what we are today. And it began with our earliest immigrant
ancestors who came here to start a new life and a new country.
COME and SHARE that heritage with us on July 13-14. We are looking
forward to making many new friends!!
Sincerely,

and co-hosted by many more friends and cousins, both locally and via
internet -- too numerous to name individually, but all of whom we
thank for all their help.
////
PLEASE REPLY BRIEFLY TO ONE OF ABOVE ADDRESSES IF YOU PLAN TO ATTEND SO WE
CAN KEEP A HEADCOUNT. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT SO THAT WE CAN BE PREPARED FOR
THE CORRECT NUMBER AND TO TRY TO ASSIST YOU IN FINDING ACCOMMODATIONS. Thank
you.////

Hi everyone,
Some people believe that the following Jacob Coffman is
the father of our 3rd great Grandfather Henry Coffman of
Harrison Co., WV. Reportedly, our Henry Coffman was
born in Smithfield, PA ca 1784. If true, this is the
first murderer I've found in our family tree. The
information was found on Ancestry.com.
Can anyone supply more information on this Jacob
Coffman, including proof that this Jacob Coffman is the
father of Henry Coffman (b. ca 1784 in Smithfield, PA)?

Dear Knox County, Below, is for ref of who's coming to visit. This
Reunion/Homecoming is going to need some local Goverment help, i.e.
traffic/parking. Does Powell Tn. have it's own city gov. and Police dept? Or
does Knoxville supply that part? Thanks and see you all there. Terri in
Knoxville, and Carl from Wichita.
Hi Terri & Tennessee Cousins, I have a Official/Guess count of ones coming
to July Reunion/homecoming, 149 is the Total and almost 5 months to go, and
may reach 500 by then. It is indeed a National event, coming from all over
the US to attend. Many, many, Thank You letters for our work in building
this event for them.
Couple of things I'm trying to tie down: Terri, did you send Welcome
letter to the two I forward in last 5-7 days? And have you US mailed copy
on Bell's Campground history? About ready to start the PR on the Event, when
I get hard copy on Bell's history. A PR agent for Ohio State is coming and
has offered to help in making the Press Pk.. If that's ok by you dear
Barbara? Do you guys ever think what's happens to this data we type on net?
Well it's will be around for "ever" to allow writers to write stories about
our lives in the now time. I often go back on rootsweb.com pages archives
and read things from 6-7 years ago. One neat thing I found was on a e-mail
from a lady in small co. in Missouri in reading the archives. She had a
picture of an ancestor and was marked photo by Walter Coffman studios, and
wanting to know from the members on County page when there was a Coffman
Studio in her town, to date the picture with. Really was a long shot, but
for her it came thru. I'm probably only one in the world that could answer
it for her. Only thing she had to wait 4 years to get answer to her e-mail.
<Grin> A little like our Snail mail>.
Hope all are well, happy, and getting ready for spring. With my Warmest
Regards, I remain,
Very truly yours,
Cousin Carl Coffman, Wichita, 2/7/2002
Yours truly, Carl Coffman, Wichita, Kansas
