The Folsom “Kuzins” Reunion was started to renew family acquaintances, fulfill the quest so many of us have for learning more about our heritage and preserving it for the next generations. There has been such an interest in this reunion that we certainly want it to continue. This is “EVERYONE’S” REUNION. Your ideas, suggestions & help are ENCOURAGED.
Notices are being mailed only to those for whom we have an address. Please tell everyone in your family about the reunion. For more information: (256) 974-1500 or (918) 443-2337. Email: mignonette2002@aol.com
