“A GREAT FAMILY REUNION”
This Webinar will offer ideas and tips about how to think about, plan, communicate about, and organize family reunions – adaptable to various group sizes, age compositions, and interests of the family group involved. The presenters will be happy to respond to questions and ideas posed by other participants.
Erin McCann Netzke has very recently retired from her career as a Medical Lab Technologist at our South Bruce Grey Health Centre; she understands and feels at ease using computers and digital communication programs and loves the challenges and discoveries of genealogy. In 2019, Erin volunteered to join Damien and three additional cousins (another Canadian, another American, and one living near Belfast in Northern Ireland) in organizing a wide-based international Gathering of cousins in Mullaghbawn. She proved herself indispensable to the effort – being both imaginative and proficient in setting up and managing the online registration system and a circulating group email communication and information site for the more than 70 people travelling from Canada, the U.S., Australia and the U.K. to the McCANN 2020 GATHERING in Mullaghbawn – a weekend event originally set for early April, but now postponed by the Covid pandemic.
Damien McCann is an American who lives on the West Coast, not far from Seattle. He is a retired Clinical Psychologist whose great-grandparents (in his McCann line) emigrated from County Armagh to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in the mid-1880s. He made his first trip to Ireland in 1987, and 10 additional trips since. Collaborating with two McCann brothers in Ireland beginning in 2011, they have assembled a family tree that now contains more than 3,200 verified descendants of their oldest known ancestor (Damien’s 4great/Erin’s 5great-grandfather, who was born in 1720 and died in 1817).
