McMillan/MacMillan Family Reunion October 8, 2023

 

We had our McMillan/MacMillan family reunion on Sunday, October 8, 2023, at Holland's Shelter Restaurant in Holly Ridge, NC. The food was delicious, and we had a wonderful time with family! A very informative program was presented by our cousin, Dr. Edna Smith, on the Sloop Point Plantation which is part of our McMillan/MacMillan history. 

More pictures sent from Diane Minshew, our President. Thanks Diane!
