Halsell Family Reunion
July 6-7, 2007
Burleson, TX
You are cordially invited to attend the Halsell Family Reunion being held at the NEW Holiday Inn Express (right behind Cracker Barrel Restaurant) on Interstate 35 in Burleson, TX at Alsbury Blvd. and EXIT 38.(approximately 15 miles south of Fort Worth), on July 6-7, 2007. We are looking forward to meeting each and every one of you there. In order to add comfort and convenience, this headquarters will replace the prior plans for the location in Keene/Lake Whitney.
The hotel is exceptionally nice and I know you will enjoy! The room rates are: King $105 per night; 2 Queen Beds $105/pn; Suites $119/pn and include sofa bed that sleeps six with a kitchenette. Some of the amenities and features are: Full Breakfast, Fitness Center, Indoor pool and hot tub, Business Center and Guest Laundry. Call NOW to reserve your room/s at: 817-426-0396 and be sure to tell them “The Halsell Family Reunion” Reservations must be made by June 11, 2007. Registration for the reunion will begin on Friday, July 6 at 5:00 pm in the Conference Room of the hotel. There are many restaurants within a short walking distance of the hotel and lots of shopping within a short driving distance. You might want to consider coming a day or two before or after the reunion and do the touristy things in and around the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. There is a lot to see and just in case you bring your own private plane, the Fort Worth Spinks Airport is close by.
Don Halsell from Louisiana has spent many years researching the Halsell family genealogy and has done a superb job. He will be there to share his report, so chances are you can look your family up. Several of the Halsell’s have had their DNA taken and he feels pretty sure now that we are linked back to the English Halsell’s in the 1300’s. If you have something on the family history or stories to tell, we want to hear from you also. Please let us know so we can put you on the schedule.
Please continue to visit this site to keep up to date on the reunion and also write something about your family and your life, etc.
Please let us know your consideration in regards to attending ASAP so we can make the proper preparations. Also, bring any old family pictures so that we can scan them, or better still, bring copies we can keep for the book that Don Halsell is preparing for the family history. Also, any stories that you have heard down through the years please write them up and give them to us for the book.
Ernie Halsell has kindly volunteered his services and plans on bringing his karaoke equipment for our “An Evening to Remember with the Halsell Family” on Saturday evening, so if you can sing, dance, juggle, play an instrument, or tell a joke, etc. – please contact him at: Ernie Halsell, 30507 Green Forest Drive, Magnolia, TX 77354-6652 or phone him at: 281-259-0360 or through the internet address: erniehalsell.juno.com Come and let us see and hear your talents.
