([email protected]). This was their 87th annual reunion from a group of four brothers who immigrated from Northern Ireland. (They were Presbyterians)C1870. They had their first family gathering in 1920. The Agnews were the largest dairy farmers in the area; their wives are all great cooks, so if you go to one of these functions, be sure to take your appetite along. Because we received notice between newsletters, we send announcements to whomever we had an e-mail address for. Perhaps next year, we'll have notice in time for the May 2008 Agnewsletter, and everyone will receive notice in time. I believe their family gatherings are held in July of each year. There will be a 2-day International Gathering of the Clans and Highland Games in Holyrood Park (Scotland), to be held over the weekend of July 25tn and 26th, 2009. More info in the November 2007 issue of the Agnewsletter. AGNEWS IN ACTION Do you have a loved one serving in our armed forces in combat?

Page 3 VOLUME XIV, ISSUE AUGUST 2007 THE AGNEWSLETTER From: "Bill Agnew" <w,agnew@blueyonder•co•uk> To: "Stephanie Agnew Eledge" <SAgnewEledqe@msn•com> Subject: Agnewsletter Date: Mon, 28 May 2007 16:24:56 +0100 Hi, I'm Bill Agnew, a previous Secretary of the UK Agnew Association. Just the other week I was chatting to my granddaughter and she informed me the she would be glad when she was married and she didn't have this 'strange' Agnew name. I did think at the time that if she knew of others with the name that it could instill some pride in her. We, in the Agnew Association have sought the history of our families and of our family name, in a bid to discover our history, and, hopefully to find some commonality in our an­ cestry. Perhaps it would be an idea to encourage our younger generations into the fold by offering them a contact network in their age groups, that they might discover each other and form an enlarged 'Agnew Family' It might even act as a safety network when they travel around. They have email, msn and chat rooms, so they are much more interactive than we will ever be. We have only ever gotten to know each other at the annual gatherings, the newsletter has never had 'portraits' on the members that we might better identify with each other - we must all have a story to tell. •EDITOR'S NOTE: Above is a partial E-Mail message from Bill Agnew of England. His con­ cerns are two-fold. He feels that the newsletter should print "portraits" of it's members so that we might better identify with each other. That was a thought that was running through our mill. So, we have decided to do this: Everyone of you members, send in a photograph (printable and legible) of yourself or yourself and spouse, or of the whole family. Along with the photo, send a blurb giving your Name(s), place of birth, four generations of ancestry, and an E-Mail address and a short paragraph about yourselves to help others to get to know you. All photos and information will be com­ piled in a booklet called The Agnew Clan or any other better name you might suggest. The booklet will be printed and sent out about September 2008 . Secondly, he feels there should be a contact network for the younger generation to contact their distant relatives, many of whom they have no knowledge. This will be a little trickier. First, it's up to you to convince your children that they want to do this. They must be age 17 or younger. Then they must send in their photo with their name, age, place of birth, what State or Country they now live in AND at least a five generation chart of themselves, their parents, their grandparents , and their great-grandparents. This will help them identify their relation to each other by checking through their own lineage for links. Their E- Mail address would be most helpful for contacting each other. We will need their addresses to mail the booklet to them; however, their ad­ dresses will not be printed for security reasons. We would probably need the same amount of time to organize this also, so it'll probably be ready about September 2008 . If possible, I'll try to make a chart linking them together to send with the booklet. Let me hear what you think of these ideas, and we'll go from there.

    EDITORIAL I hope you like the Journal's new style front cover. The woodcut by Thomas Bewick, with the oak tree in the foreground, and the castle and the tower of St Nicholas' Church, Newcastle, on one side of the river, and Windmill Hills, Gateshead, on the other, seemed appropriate for our Society. The section of the Journal devoted to Members' Interests and Second Time Around is I know greatly appreciated by many readers; it is however tending to take up more and more space, and I would ask members submitting items for inclusion to keep them as brief as possible - otherwise it may be necessary to impose a limit on the number of words per entry. I am writing this before the first meeting of the Society in London has taken place (at the Society of Genealogists on 4 April), but the indications are that it will be well supported, and that it will lead to the formation of a London Group. Thanks are due to Dr C.T. Watts and Mrs Wendy Bennett for arranging the inaugural meeting; we wish the Group every success. NEWS IN BRIEF Scottish Family History The Department of Adult Education & Extra Mural Studies, University of Aberdeen, is running a Summer School from Saturday 18 July to Saturday 25 July 1987.

  • Advanced Reading Practice Questions
    Advanced Reading Practice Questions 1. In 1892 the Sierra Club was formed. In 1908 an area of coastal redwood trees north of San Francisco was established as Muir Woods National Monument. In the Sierra Nevada mountains, a walking trail from Yosemite Valley to Mount Whitney was dedicated in 1938. It is called John Muir Trail. John Muir was born in 1838 in Scotland. His family name means “moor,” which is a meadow full of flowers and animals. John loved nature from the time he was small. He also liked to climb rocky cliffs and walls. When John was eleven, his family moved to the United States and settled in Wisconsin. John was good with tools and soon became an inventor. He first invented a model of a sawmill. Later he invented an alarm clock that would cause the sleeping person to be tipped out of bed when the timer sounded. Muir left home at an early age. He took a thousand-mile walk south to the Gulf of Mexico in 1867and 1868. Then he sailed for San Francisco. The city was too noisy and crowded for Muir, so he headed inland for the Sierra Nevadas. When Muir discovered the Yosemite Valley in the Sierra Nevadas, it was as if he had come home. He loved the mountains, the wildlife, and the trees. He climbed the mountains and even climbed trees during thunderstorms in order to get closer to the wind. He put forth the theory in the late 1860's that the Yosemite Valley had been formed through the action of glaciers.

    Burials in Mount Royal Cemetery, Montreal Please note that these are only a selection of the available burials within the cemetery. Since 2001 I have been checking both the burial registers and photographing the graves, so this is very much an ongoing project. Nonetheless, with the absence of definitive civil deaths data in the Montreal area, searching this page with its links to family genealogies and viewing the current inscriptions that I have from Mount Royal should help in connecting some of those links. I have added notes with each entry, and links to any compiled genealogies that I may have. I recommend looking at my BMD databases for the current data on Montreal, and of course, worldwide…those databases are updated monthly. As always, I welcome any additions/corrections!
