FARRAR FAMILY REUNION, INC. HOME PAGE

This site contains specific information for the Farrar Family Reunion, Incorporated.

The Farrar Family Reunion, Inc. holds it's annual reunion and is incorporated in the State of Arkansas.

The Reunion Corporation has been created for the benefit of that portion of the Farrar line descended from Joseph Vernon Farrar, Sr. (6/10/1903 - 6/28/1983) and and his wife Viola Lillian Schwend (7/25/1904 - 11/4/1954) and their families, relatives and friends.

Check out the 'links' to the Reunion Newsletters, Corporation Page (including the By-Laws and Officers of the Corp.), Family History, Photos, Articles of Interest and other Historical Facts.

We have a link to the Family Tree (two pages). These are large pages and you will have to scroll around to view the entire famly tree.

(We have temporarily disabled the Guest Book due to spam attacks, we hope to bring the feature back soon).

Joseph V. Farrar, Jr. passed away at his home in Riverside County, California on December 28th, 2010.
Joseph, the oldest son of Joseph V. Farrar, Sr. and Viola (Schwend) Farrar, assumed the duties of family Patriarch
when Joseph, Sr. passed away in 1983. Joseph, Jr. was a tireless promoter of the Farrar Family Reunion.
He supported and attended all of the 30+ reunions and organized two 'Rendezvous' at Farrar's Island in Virginia,
one in 1997 and one that was impacted by events of 911 in September of 2001. (read more about these two events at THIS LINK).

ITEMS OF INTEREST

We visited ancestors buried in the Old Flatcreek Cemetery located in Flatcreek Tennessee. The cemetery isn’t maintained and it is very overgrown (not something we can understand given the fact so many Farrar’s with ancestors in this cemetery reside in the area). Additional information will be posted and the link page expanded as time permits. You can view the information at this link.

Directions to Farrar's Island: You can locate directions to Farrar's Island on the web page of the City of Henricus Historical Park web page. Once there, click on 'directions' under the title and following the instructions. I have also placed a Mapquest map of Farrar's Island here which you can adjust and print for reference. You will need to zoom in to see the island, now Henricus Historical Park (Latitude: 37.375, Longitude: -77.370).

Information about the Farrar family coat of arms at the link indicated. The information comes from Holmes first book (more information on Holmes book offer page). The information includes a description of the colors of the coat of arms and there also is a translation of that description..

The bulletin board had to be removed, we may figure out a way to provide this service in the future. In the meantime, you can find a lot of interesting information and post your questions on the Farrar Family Forum.

The web address for our Farrar Web Site has changed. The new address is www.farrarinc.com.
