Rev. Pierre Robert Family Association 2021 Reunion

The 2021 Reunion is a go! We’ve abbreviated the usual reunion schedule so if folks can’t commit to the whole weekend, they can still join us for the meat of the reunion on Saturday, June 5, 2021. However, for those who plan to spend a night or two, we will have informal meals and chances to get to know each other better throughout the weekend.

 

We will be meeting at The Hotel Bentley (Claiborne Room), 200 Desoto Street, Alexandria, LA. (318) 442-2226. Website: https://www.visithotelbentley.com/

Our cousin Mary David Baker will present this year’s program -- an introduction to Mary Stone Grimball (1749 – 1807), mother of Anne Grimball. After the presentation, we’ve planned a hands-on activity. 

If you’ve recently attended one of the reunions or paid your dues, a blank 9-generation genealogy chart was mailed on 4/26/21 to the home address we have on file for you. Before you come to Alexandria, fill out your chart as best you can. When we gather, we will help each other fill in the blanks and learn how we all are connected. After that, we’ll have a closing service during which we will honor and remember those who have passed away since the last reunion in 2017.

We’re very excited about the activities we’ve planned and hope you are as ready to be out and about as much as we are.
