Tarvin Book Report

At the 2010 Tarvin Family Reunion, Gary Hoffman reported that the book committee has been busy preparing several books on the following lines: Line 11, Line 12, and Line 5. We hope to restart work on the Line 4 book as well.

Sales of the Line 1 book have exhausted the supply. Gary introduced a CD version of that book which will be available immediately. This joins the Line 10 Book on CD. Line 3 and Line 7 books are still available in hard bound format, but they are moving quickly.

Next year in Terre Haute

At the conclusion of the reunion in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, Tarvin Family Association president Ken Tarvin announced that next year's event will be held in Terre Haute, Indiana, an area that is home to many Tarvins of Line 10 plus some from other lines, including William.

Great Reunion Concludes

Another Tarvin family reunion has just concluded. This was the best attended reunion ever. Over 120 cousins participated over the course of the three-day event. It had all you could ask for in a reunion: cemeteries, genealogy libraries, historical excursions, lots of food and family fun, plus the auction of memorabilia and the raffling of the Tarvin quilt.

2010 Reunion Planned for Northern Kentucky

The Tarvin reunion committee has announced the dates for this year's reunion. It will be held October 7th, 8th and 9th, 2010 in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, at the Drawbridge Inn. This Northern Kentucky area is Tarvin "ground zero," the area where Rev. George Tarvin's thirteen children raised their families and many descendants still live. It will be a treat to visit this area and get to know some Tarvin cousins.
