On Sunday, October 8, 2000 the Mewhinney family gathered at the Walker House in downtown Southampton to renew aquaintenance, see the new members of the family, and catch up on family news
The following photos were taken by their cousin, Bill Dowkes
BE PATIENT, THESE TAKE SOME TIME TO DOWNLOAD - AND I DID REDUCE THEM ALL TO HALF SIZE
I have added photos from the 2001 gathering down the page
These are just a few of the 50 photos I took- I will give Marlene a few copies of the pictures plus other older photos, on cd's.
I need help with the captions! 34 cousins to identify!!
