Alpheus Gifford 3rd GGrand father

I already posted on Alpheus related to his birthday.

http://mcgeefamilyblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/alpheus-gifford-3rd-great-grandfather.html

Today is the 170th anniversary of his death near Nauvoo. I found a few links that mention his conversion and activities as a missionary that might be interesting.

“At the age of eighteen, having scarcely sufficient learning to enable him to read the Bible, he (Alpheus) commenced preaching the Gospel, not for hire, but for the salvation of souls” (HC, Vol. 4, p. 109, footnotes). (See also HC, Vol. 4, p. 484, footnotes – birth stated to be August 25, 1798.)

McGee Family Reunion 2012

Plans are under way for the Southern California Reunion of the Lloyd and Marna McGee Family Reunion to be held during the Christmas season of 2012.

A trial run of weather this year, has temperatures during the day in the mid 60's to the low 70's, clear skies, and cool nights high 30's to low 40's.

Many activities are available in the area. Disneyland is planning a grand celebration and the company I work for is hard at work installing new tile at many locations. Seaworld will have a Christmas celebration as well as new rides. Knotts Berry Farm has exciting adventures as well. The animals at the many zoos are looking forward to visits.

The local mountains have skiing, snowboarding and tubing areas. There are some water activities available for the brave souls who dare.

Parades and football games will be held as well.

The actual family dinner/activity is scheduled to be held on the Saturday between Christmas and New Years. (Dec 29, 2012)

Housing space is limited at the Casa McGee. However there are many fine accomodations in the area. Ranging from the backyard to Marriots.

Please let us know your plans for attending.
