Melungeon Gathering in July 2005

The next event sponsored by the Melungeon Heritage Association will be in Frankfort, Kentucky on July 29-30, 2005. Plans are still being made at this time, and we hope to make this a free event if possible. Tentative plans are to hold research seminars at the Kentucky History Center and Kentucky State Archives on Friday the 29th - both facilites contain a wealth of records, for surrounding states as well as for Kentucky. On Saturday, presentations will be made in the Holiday Inn Capital Plaza Conference Center.

The Holiday Inn has special room rates available for this gathering:
