The 2002 Goldston Reunion

Goldston Family Cemetery

About 100 people attended the reunion in October, 2002, and we were pleased that Mark Askins was there to scan some photos of Johnny and Herbert, the Goldston Twin Auctioneers, brought by Herbert's daughter, Jean Goldston McClure.

If you or other family member has access to the web, please visit www.goldston.bravepages.com and the other site at www.goldstonnc.com

At the Reunion in October, Jean gave us a list of about 250 names on her mailing list.  We posted names and towns (no addresses) on the web, sorted by towns so that you can see if you have "cuzzins" who live near you.  The web site at www.goldston.bravepages.com

is where we are setting up a

web-based scrap book for family

viewers and our descendants.

If you have family photos and documents that you would like to add to the scrapbook, you can have them scanned on a CD at your local photo shop... or if you live in N. C., you can email or call me (336) 788-2484 and at a time convenient with you, I can visit you on any day and bring laptop computer and scanner.
