Hello Family,
My name is Rose Mary Sampson Benjamin. I am the fifth child of eleven children born to Catherine "Carrie" Jean-Baptiste and Daniel Sampson. I am married to Felix Benjamin and we have two wonderful grown daughters, Daune and Danika Benjamin. My grandparents are "Charles" and Marie Jacobs Jr. and my great grandparents are Aly Sampson and Joseph Jean-Baptiste Sr. We started the Jean-Baptiste family gathering in 2007 with my sister, Elizabeth Dobison, cousin Thelma Jacobs Prater, and brother Andrew Sampson. Then, in 2009, we realized our first Jean-Baptiste family reunion here in Avoyelles Parish.
I regret that I will not be able to attend the 2016 BLS reunion, but hope you all will have great time celebrating our family hertiage. I send nothing but love to all my family and look forward to seeing all of you at our next Jean-Baptiste family reunion.
