After a short meeting with all available seats filled and election of officers completed, CCGS members, Gwen King and Janie Oickle editor of Gwen's book, gave a presentation on the soon to be released book, in time for Christmas, called "LORNEVILLE, Cumberland County, Nova Scotia - From Wilderness to Busy Seaside Community".
All attending enjoyed, and much conversation and queries were put forth as to contents of such a publication and availability, which was answered to as gone to the printers and will be for sale soon.
Check the CCGS website and Facebook often for details.
Thank you all for attending and "Happy Holidays".

[From the Editors:]
As you can see from the outgoing president’s report, 2002 was a very busy year for the Society. 2003 promises to be very eventful as well. With various projects underway, especially the one to digitize Death Records and Will Books, we expect to keep many members busy. We need your support to make this a success – not just your financial support through membership dues, but perhaps some time spent confirming the accuracy of the index records since you are the experts on family names in Cumberland County.
Time to renew your membership for 2003
First meeting – 7 pm Tuesday, January 21.
