Reunion




The Crookston reunion and the Alleman Reunion are combined this year.  The date is Saturday, August 4 in the Logan 10th Ward, at 792 N. 500 E. Logan, Utah.  Meet in the cultural hall.  The Crookston reunion business meeting is at 10:00 a.m.   Allemans cater a lunch, and they have an auction with nice things that pays for the lunch.  So bring things to the auction and purchase a few things if you can.  Mark Crookston is getting the word out.

Joe says that the Allemans come from a little mountain farming village in  Switzerland which he has visited.  There is a little church with a grave yard with Alleman names.  Some Allemans still live in the area.  I looked at the village on Google maps by searching on  tschappina, Switzerlans and Untertschappina is close by.  "Unter" means under.  By searching on "Tschappina, Switzerland Wikipedia" a picture of the church is shown.
