The 2010 Cline Reunion is over, MAKE YOUR PLANS TO ATTEND the 2012 REUNION! |
"Come Home to Catawba County"
The Cline reunion is held every two years in the Catawba County area of North Carolina. Since 1988, Clines have met to enjoy a weekend together and tour the area where Sebastian Klein once lived, farmed, and raised a family. Many generations have come from this single man and his wife, Susan Beaver. The reunion focuses on the Clines who originated from Western North Carolina in the mid-1700s. As always, Sebastian's descendants are welcomed, as well as siblings descended from his father, Moritz and the extended family of Clines.
This year’s reunion will include events allowing family members to share who they are today and who their ancestors were by sharing stories, family memorabilia/heirlooms, histories, professions, talents and hobbies.
SEE THE FOLKS WHO ATTENDED THE 2010 REUNION
As at previous reunions, there will be a Cline Store, containing lots of souvenirs plus original art & photographs by Tommy Stine (a Cline himself). Also, available will be a computerized database where one can add information or print out a section of family genealogy. Two catered meals will be served (reservations required) but everybody is welcomed even if one doesn't eat.
On Saturday afternoon families can visit at the church, or take trips to the many Cline cemeteries or historic sites in the areas. Maps and brochures will be available. Don't forget to bring a camera!
