A Family History Records Site

Florida "Reunion", March 2003

 
I (Kevin) was down in Orlando, Florida in March (2003) on a business trip (insurance conference - I'm a computer administrator for an insurance company). The highlight of my trip was when my Dad's cousin, Marian Hammond, her daughter, Gwen, and grandson Andrew drove down from northern Florida for a short visit. Marian and I had "met" around two years before, and have corresponded by mail and telephone, but had never met in person. We met at the Gaylord Palms Resort on Sunday, March 16, 2003, and finally had the chance to meet in person!

Thanks Marian, Gwen, & Andrew, for making my trip so memorable!

Marian has given me great assistance in gathering information and photographs of recent ancestral history (Subra and Dennis families, especially). She has provided more historical family information than all other family members! She inherited and has safely cared for some of her grandmother's (Bertha Dennis Subra, wife of William John Subra) records, including obituaries and some very old family photographs (soon to be on this web site, if I get some time!).

My grandfather, Everett Subra, and Marian's mother, Laura Subra Neubauer, were siblings. Marian says we're 2nd cousins. My genealogy relationship calculator says we're 1st cousins, once removed. Either way, we had a great time, and enjoy corresponding!

The "camera" used was my Sony Clie NX70. Though not a super high-res camera (640x480), it serves as an excellent impromptu camera for just such wonderful occasions.
