DILLARD Family Reunion in 2020. CANCELLED Update: To ONE & ALL! Recently, a few of us Dillard cousins, took an Excursion to Lynchburg, Virginia. We missed those of you who didn't go. We visited cousin Howard & his lovely wife Emma, in Hurt, Virginia, which is located near the Dillard Plantation. It was a Historical Event, in that we visited the homestead, & saw a couple of the Slave Quarters. We then visited the cemetery, which our Ancestor John Dillard sold the land to the New Bethel Baptist Church & where John & wife Nannie O Hunt are buried. There were quite a few familiar names among the Headstones in the Cemetery that are on the Family Tree. We also met cousin Eugene 'Gene' Dillard for the 1st time. Gene is the son of Nannie 'Brownie' Dillard. It would be wonderful to have a Family Reunion in Virginia, so that ALL of us have the opportunity to visit the Origins of our Ancestors.

COME ON IN! We invite all Kinfolk to come and share in this beautiful heritage, and feel the warmth and love of family; past and present. Come learn about this rich Legacy they have left us, and the journeys they have taken. We have worn many shoes, that of Slave Masters, Slaves, Union and Confederate Soldiers, and Buffalo Soldiers, rich, poor, American Indians, Blacks, Mulattoes and Whites. Hopefully, the information within these pages will give each of us a sense of when, where and how our family evolved.
Our Ancestors have helped us realize the many sacrifices they have made during the darkest times in American History. They have paved the way for us, and now we should always try and remember, that BECAUSE of them, we have been able to accomplish our goals, realize our dreams, and see a brighter future for generations to come. We have been standing on THEIR shoulders, so what better way to honor them than to research their life history. Unfortunately, most of our knowledge usually doesn't go further than what we actually know, and those we are close to.
This research should/will help us to better understand our history, through our ancestors, and their descendants. Now it is up to us, to document who we are, where we lived, and the accomplishments we have made along the way. We are a great family orchard, continually growing and sprouting many branches that keep bearing much fruit. We have inherited a rich and diversified legacy, through the love, guidance and nurturing of our Creator and have remained strong along our journey of life.
Although the initial Journey was to locate my great grandmother Mary Stewart-Eason, the objective soon changed when cousin Andrea Johnson and I found each other online through one of the many genealogy sites. She then reconnected me with cousin Howard L. G. Dillard, and between the three [3] of us, we began searching in earnest. Our focus was on the seven [7] brothers from Pittsylvania County, Virginia. We've been successful in locating and documenting two [2] of the brothers; Henry [1840]; Howard's Grandfather, Thomas [1850]; my Great Grandfather, and Lena [1875]; Andrea's Great Grandmother, who is the daughter of Henry. The remaining brothers and families we need to find are: Maurice, George, William, Jack and Willis. It's proving to be a daunting task in finding the brothers. Mary Stewart has been found, along with parents, siblings & grandparents. As many genealogists will attest, one thing leads to another; a new mystery arises and just has to be pursued.
There is a quote: "Genealogy begins as an interest, becomes a hobby, continues as an invocation, takes over as an obsession, and in its last stages, is an incurable disease." ...author unknown
It has definitely become an obsession and an incurable disease for Howard and me, for with each new family member found, the adrenalin starts anew and we keep forging ahead with the hope of finding someone long lost. But to use a phrase from cousin Charity, "We will be humbled by this work of Love."
