Jerkins Reunion next year
James Jerkins 9/26/99
Hey Cousin Jim, for such a short time for organization and getting notice out to Jerkins in several different states, I thought that turnout was great!
We had representation from four different lines of Zachariah's descendants.We also had a lot of family memorabilia and photos to share along with some great family stories. Not to mention good food and visitation.

Not to mention good food and visitation.The oldest Jerkins in attendance was Henry Jerkins, at age 93 (working on 94), years old.The youngest was a babe in arms at three weeks old.I sadly confess that I have forgotten the baby's name - but hopefully I will get another chance to remember it next year.
