2012 Prall Family Association Reunion: For those Pralls who happen to stumble across the blog and aren't aware of the reunion or any Pralls not already members, it will be held in [of course] Prallsville, Hunterdon Co., NJ. [Brothers Aaron, Cornelius & Peter Prall [Pieter, Arent Jansen, Jan Arentsen] settled in Hunterdon Co. in the 1730s. Brother Johannes Praul settled in Bucks Co., PA]
Our social gathering/general meeting will held at the John Prall House across the road from the Prallsville Mills. We will meet on Friday [Sep.14] for a get-together, Prall news, lunch & a couple of speakers. There will be an art show at the mills that you can check out. You can explore Hunterdon Co., NJ or Bucks Co., PA on your own after the meeting, or get together with "cousins." [Either Friday or Saturday evenig we will try to have a 'social' at the base hotel (TBA).]
Saturday [Sep. 15] will be a long, but fun day! We will take a bus trip to Staten Island. There we will visit Historic Richmond Town, the Billiou House [home of Arent Jansen Prall's in-laws], the Watering Pace near Tompkinsville [where it is believed the family first came ashore], Ft. Wadworth and possibly another site or two.
Sunday [Sep. 16] will probably include a trip to Washington's Crossing Park [PA side] and a Delaware River Cruise.
I'll add some Hunterdon area sites to visit as the reunion nears.
