Congrats to Kristina Hayes and the whole production team for a job well done on this commemorative family reunion documentary. Hats off to Melvin Collier author of the book 150 Years Later: Broken Ties Mended that provided the research for this historical family event.

That groundbreaking event in Atlanta, GA and Abbeville, S.C.

Totaling 30 minutes, the entire documentary was divided into five short clips which are below.
