First Families
Any
member of the organization who is a direct descendant of an individual
who settled in Washington County in 1830 may become a member of the
First Families of Washington County on the acceptance of an application
with proof of such descent and the payment of a $15.00 application fee.
This application must first be accepted by the First Families of
Washington County Committee and by the Washington County Chapter of the
Ohio Genealogical Society.
Give volume and page for book references and include a copy machine,
photo, or other facsimile copy of the pertinent pages, and of all
published or unpublished records used for proof. Typed,
handprinted, or written copies of documents not certified as "TRUE
COPIES" are not acceptable as proof. Published or manuscript
material authored by the applicant or his family will not of themselves
be accepted as proof. Inrformation for additional ancestral lines
may be included on blank pages, showing the tie-in to the lines on the
basic application. An ancestral chart must be included to show
the inter-connecting relationship for each ancestral line submitted.
Each year we honor the new (and current) First Families members at our May meeting.
