Pratt Family Reunion 2014

Time Flies by so quickly. and 2014 is upon us already so once again it's time for another edition of the Legendary Pratt Family Reunion.  Over the years the family has grown so large that it's hard to keep track of everybody. Fortunately in this modern age we have the advantage of social media to help us with keeping in touch. To help us get the word out to everybody we need your help in reaching out to some of our cousins that we have not seen in a while.  If everybody would let just 3 to 5 cousins from other branches of the family that you may still know, that would go a long way to getting the word out to everyone. All you need to do is pass on  this web page and our Facebook page to them.

This years reunions theme is "Picture the Past". We want you to find your old pictures from past reunions or other important family pictures and send them to me so that we can put together a presentation for this years reunion. Even if you will be unable to attend we would still like you to send me your pictures so that we can all view them and post them up on this site and the facebook page.
