Greetings Dear Family,
No matter the culture, society or upbringing there can be no social grouping more important the family.
Across the world, families remain the focus of people’s lives. They spend Christmas together, Birthdays and all major occasions. As descendants of the Yates Family, we are no different. We are able to trace our ancestry back to 1812, the year when Frederic Yates married Lela (last name unknown). Fredric and Lela birthed a son named Gustavus Yates who married Eliza Hicks. Gustavus and Eliza birthed 7 Children; Francis, Pinky-Ann, Frank, Louvenia, Ernest, Daisy and Augustus. It is through these 7 siblings that the Yates, Branch, White, Spruell and Love branches took root and flourished. When tragedy strikes and sadness takes over we rely on our family for support. Others will come and go throughout a lifetime but family is undoubtedly forever. We are honored to have the ability to reunite and reconnect with our family annually. And since tomorrow is not promised to any of us, we will make every effort to strengthen and create bold new bonds as we build new bridges through communication and oral history. As this year's Reunion Chairwoman, I am looking forward to meeting, greeting and enjoying time with kin folks. I want to see as many Yates descendants as possible. The reunion committee and I have been working hard behind the scenes to put together a phenomenal and auspicious reunion. Don't miss out, purchase your ticket(s) and T-shirts today. SPREAD THE WORD!!
Family is forever and for always.
With Love and Respect,
Beverly Pinket, Reunion Chairwoman
