Many, many thanks to all of you who have sent your descendancy information. We have entered all the information into the database. We have entered nearly 2,200 names. That is more than half again as many as we had on those long charts at the reunion. We are particularly grateful for the new family information of births and marriages that have occurred since 1979. You young families, please send in your family information. I have also sent out Livingston crest patches to those who sent a chart in to me. If I have missed anyone, please let me know.
Let's not quit now. If you haven't yet sent your descendancy info in, please use the attached chart (MS Word or PDF) and send it in now. Remember, each submittal will receive a free Livingston Family crest patch. They are beautifully made and will be a treasure to keep. Additional ones can be ordered from me at $3.00 each.
I have a new address. Send your descendancy information to, and order your Livingston crest patches from me at:

At our Reunion in June, we would like to encourage you to bring any Livingston artifacts that may be in your possession. We are very fortunate to have our cousin, Dennis Davis, who has volunteered to take professional photos of any Livingston artifacts. Just bring them to the reunion to share, Dennis will take a picture and Ross will put it on the website to make it available to the whole Livingston family. Start locating your memorabilia now! This is a picture taken at last year's reunion.
If every family sent $10 - $20 for dues, we would be able to do family reunions and research and many other important things pertaining to family history. The percentage of family members paying dues is quite small, so "the few" are taking care of "the many". Let's all commit to stand up and be counted... and THANK YOU to those of you who regularly and faithfully help us out.
