Unfortunately, Bill, the reunion had already passed when you posted your reply. We had contacted all the family members that we knew of, and I did post a notice of it in the reunion message board.
Who were your parents and grandparents? Do you live in Oregon or Washington? The reunion was basically for people descended from James Bryan Byrnes and his wife Lucy Lura Hammond Byrnes who were both born in Kankakee County, Illinois, were married there, then moved to Kansas and later to the Pacific Northwest (arriving in Washington in 1899). But we would have welcomed any other Byrnes to the reunion. James Bryan Byrnes' parents were George W. Byrnes and Sabra Anna Hawkins Byrnes. They had 2 other sons: Joel B. Byrnes and George W. Byrnes, Jr., and I know next to nothing about what became of those branches of the family. I have a hint that maybe descendents of George W. Byrns (or Byrnes), Jr. may have also settled in the Northwest, but I haven't had a chance to track them down yet. There are still members of the family in Kankakee County, but they spell their name Byrns, and it now appears that our ancestors originally spelled the name that way, and then later added an e to it.
Let me know if you might be related to OUR branch of the Byrnes family!
