Family hoping to gather in Perryville in late July, 2020 Thinking of summer family gathering - maybe by the end of July the annual reunion could still be possible. By Mike Crain The Annual Cocanougher-Connour Reunion is planned for Sunday, July 26, 2020 at The American Legion Hall at Perryville KY, 10amCT-3pm/11amET-4pm. A Potluck lunch will be about 12:45pm. In 2019, 72 of our family from six states attended. We hope many of those and others will attend this 2020 Reunion. Do call before you travel a long distance since this Coronavirus could change plans. You may contact Mike Crain phone 859-368-3853 or email Postcardlex@aol.com. We will have, as always fun, food, fellowship, genealogy displays, stories, laughs and our game "Who Has?" You may bring items to donate to this game from where you have been quarintined and cleaning your house during these weeks. Hope this house cleaning has worked better for you than it has for me. lol The photo with this article was made by Bruce Cocanougher after the first mowing in March 2020 of The Cocanougher Cemetery on Long Run Road near Texas community in Washington County Kentucky. Bruce continues to work on eliminating wild violets that have a 200 year jump on him in killing out grass. Bruce says about 80% are eliminated. We appreciate the work Bruce and his family have done for years in maintaining our ancestral burial grounds that dates back to 1822. Listed here are known to be 20 buried in The Cocanougher Cemetery. There could be more.
