“I would like to share with you all my experience of attending a reunion of my mother's branch of my family of origin at Ocala.
All of my life--more then 40 yrs--I had pretty much believed my mother had little or no family since she was orphaned at 8 yrs
in 1923. A daughter of a relative on mom's side organized a family reunion at Ocala. I was really happy!! I learned of many, many unknown relatives, some people I have known most of my life were relatives. The big discovery is the name of a relative who fought in the Civil War. There is a copy of his "discharge paper" in the hand of one of the living relatives. He promised to mail me a copy. You know I got the names and addresses and photographs of all. Really a memorable day."
