Carol Pearson--As Junior Chairman for our Society my job is getting lighter as we
lose membership every single year.  Many of our kids are reaching college- age,
young- married- age, moving- away- from- home- age, and it is difficult to keep up
with them. I try to keep track and send each one a birthday card, and when mail is
returned to me, I call on the sponsor (usually a grandmother) for the new mailing
information, which is often outdated by the following year.

If you have sponsored a Junior, and there has been a change in address or name,
please take a few minutes to contact me as I would very much appreciate knowing.
I contact sponsors (when available) when a Junior becomes 25 years old. A word of
encouragement from sponsors/family to go into  Regular Membership is the only
thing that counts!

In 2009 we will bid farewell as Juniors to the following 25 year olds:
Scott Arthur Montgomery, Joshua Miller, April Jessica Bevington, Michelle Theresa
Hodapp Dubois, and Susan Elizabeth Menz That will leave us with 41 Juniors for
2010.

Junior membership makes a great gift. For a $10 one time fee, I mail a certificate of
membership , a one page biography of their ancestor(s) on the Mayflower, and a
little information about the Compact and First Thanksgiving.  Please contact me for
applications! Carol Pearson, 5002 Sun Shadow Place, Las Cruces, NM 87011

              Happy Birthday Virginia Stovall

Virginia Stovall, active member of New Mexico Mayflower and one of Los Alamos’
first Living Treasures, celebrated her 100th birthday in September with family and
friends in Santa Fe. Studying the family genealogy was one of her many passions
and she is especially proud to have traced the family line back to four Mayflower
passengers, including John Alden.   Virginia now lives at Rosemont Assisted Living
in Santa Fe. Happy Birthday, Virginia!
