Greetings Family,

Family is not an important thing, it is Everything! In 1978, our family member, Thelma Short Doswell, a certified Genealogist, conducted over 20 years of research on the family genealogy. We ARE the descendants of John and Maggie Campbell. John named for his father and master considered the surname his birthright. After he was sold to the Haskins, John never changed his last name because his mother was known by that last name. John lived in Brunswick County, Virginia and married Maggie; they begat the following children: Fred, Liddie, Maria, Melvina, Polly, Sylvia, Sam, John, Julia, and Creed. Your lineage falls under one or more of their children.

The MegaFest Family Reunion Planning Committee has set aside a specific date and place to connect the descendants of John and Maggie Campbell together. The plan and purpose is to KEEP our Family Roots connected.

Unfortunately, the Covid pandemic disrupted the nation and separated our way of life as we knew it. Our “new normal” has been affected by the enormous rise in the cost of living. As a result, the planning committee had to make the difficult decision to increase registration fees to ensure we able to cover all associated reunion expenses.

We challenge each of you to encourage and bring our family members to “their” Reunion because if We Go Together ~ We Grow Together!

Yours Truly,

MegaFest Family Reunion Planning Committee
