There were some errors on your family tree that I would like to correct. Uncle John never had any biological children Roslyn and Janice became his step children when he married aunt Ann. Uncle Lafayete has two children Lynnette and Ronnell Holley. Mary's last name was Adams. Vera's father's name was Johnny Harrison. Our grandfather's middle name was Franklin. Uncle Will's daughter's name is not Judy it's Julia. Uncle George's kids name is as follows: George Jr. Rex, Lorraine, Joseph, and Robin. Uncle Luttuce (Mike) had a son by the name of Diego Holley (Junior).

Also James and sadie had one child by the name of Victor. Uncle Will had another son by the name of Chad. This information is coming from Ashley Northeran Vera's daughter. I received this information from my mother and aunt Lynnette Holley.

It is great to see our family reconnect through the use of technology. Just a correction to the Everage family info, the order of the children for Beatrice and James Everage are: Patrice, Brian, Brett & Derek, Donna, Craig, Lisa & Lydia. My mom's name was Vera Beatrice Holley. I'm just so excited about the reunion and doing our family tree. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the reunion.
