Missed the Capron Reunion

Yes, we missed it but it sounds as if it was fun and we need to make the next one. Here is the beginning of the article regarding it:

A special reunion for the Capron family





ATTLEBORO - Banfield Capron came to what would become America in 1675 as a 14-year-old stowaway on an English ship, and eventually became one of Attleboro's first settlers.

On Saturday, 333 years later, dozens of his descendants who have found their way to all corners of the nation plan to hold a family reunion in Attleboro, the city of their roots and the rest is here.

I like the quote from the parks guy, " This is a big deal." very eloquent. Dad I nominate you to randomly show up at the next one, to represent us.
