The "Mississippi McMillins" - as the name is
generally abreviated within the clan as a whole -
are all the descendants of William McMillin (born c.1763 in Belfast, Northern
Ireland, and died 1845 in Louisville, MS, USA).
The society was founded in 1951, and in 1957 mustered some 200
participants for their sixth annual reunion.
They meet on the third Sunday in August every year at Louisville for a church
service and for lunch.
Formal membership in June 2000 was 50, but up to 120 or more
sometimes attend informally at the annual reunions,
where voluntary donations are collected rather than an official subscription.

Grove, Ooltewah, TN 37363.
Historian: Lamar McMillin, 600 Fort Hill Drive, Vicksburg, MS 39180.
