Year 2023 marked the 70th Anniversary of the McLamb Family Reunion. A souvenir booklet full of family stories and traditions with an attempt to capture all seventy reunions from 1953 to 2023 was created.
In our souvenir booklet is a collection of recipes in a section “With One Bite at a Time With a Story to Tell.” These recipes are more than just favorite recipes, but memorable stories of how food and meals were prepared and what life was like throughout the last 70 years. Memorials were included to show remembrance to those lost over the years. We received “Words of Congratulations” that showed the love and appreciation celebrating 70 Years of Family Reunions. Business ventures were also included to bring awareness to the family.
After many years of searching for you, the McLamb Family History has been published in a book. Volume I have almost sold out with only a few copies left. If you would like to get one of these books that is full of McLamb Family History, e-mail lmowens@nc.rr.com.

Returning from my second Family History Conference in Charleston, South Carolina, I stopped in Dillon to find the wedding chapel so many used in the early days including me. The wedding chapel is now used by the police.
While at a Family History Conference I spend the day researching at the South Carolina State Archives. I first tried to find information on a relative that fought in the Civil War, which proved unsuccessfully. My biggest find in the State Archives was the marriage record for my parents that proved just what I thought about my mom's age when she married.
In the picture below, I am sporting my t-shirt -
"I seek dead people."
(I'm a genealogist)
This is so true in every sense as I spend countless hours looking for our ancestors. It is also good to talk to the living about family history in my continued "In Search of You."
Please send any family news that you want to share to Linda Owens.
