2026 - 68th Reunion Attendees

A total of 51 cousins attended and participated, in-person or on zoom, in all or part of the two day reunion event. Thank you to everyone who came to support the R-CA and to all who contributed so much to making the event such a great success!

It was great to see cousins who couldn’t attend in-person on ZOOM. We offered a ZOOM link Saturday for the Business Meeting and Featured Presentation.

This beautiful Roark-Conner quilt, with a puzzle background, was made by Martha Johnson, Ames Iowa, for the R-CA. James Roark of Ohio, won the quilt raffle and donated the quilt for use in the Joseph Roark Cabin. Congratulations to James and thank you for your very generous donation!

The Historical Documents Collection flash drive contains over 4,000 documents from the Joseph Roark trunk and other documents that were later added by family members. In addition, the flash drive contains 100 Newsletter published from 1992 to 2025.
