I have begun a tentative schedule which is subject to change.

I am looking for someone interested in leading a short non-denominational church service on Sunday morning. I am also looking for someone that can organize and take reservations for a group dinner on Saturday night.

Is there anyone that would like to make a presentation on their Bassett Family line? Please let me know the subject and the approximate length of your presentation if you are interested in speaking.

Friday, August 3, 2007
Registration - Noon to 8 pm
Group Tour: Massachusetts state capital building - afternoon

Saturday, August 4, 2007
Presentation: The early English History of the Bassett family by Jim Terzian.
Presentation: The Bassett research and DNA project by Jeffrey Bassett
Several more Bassetts will be presenting material on their families and the schedule has not yet been finalized.
Group Tour: USS Constitution located just outside of the hotel
Dinner: Group dinner either at the hotel or at a nearby restaurant depending on the number of people attending

Sunday, August 5, 2007
Possible church service.

Some from the group are planning a trip to Plimouth Plantation on Sunday afternoon, a recreation of Plymouth, Massachusetts from 1627. This might be especially interesting for those descendants of William Bassett of Plymouth since his family lived in Plymouth in 1627. They have offered a special tour for our group if people are interested. http://www.plimoth.org
