Bondurant Family Association Meeting

You are invited to the annual Bondurant Reunion on October 17-19, 2008 in Midlothian-Richmond, VA.

Our family started with Jean Pierre Bondurant, who landed in Virginia in 1700. Fleeing from Génolhac, France as a Huguenot, Jean Pierre initially settled at Manakin Town on the banks of the James River in abandoned Monacan Indian Village. Jean Pierre married and raised a large family. Since 1700 the family has spread all over the United States and the world.

Return to the original settlement site with this year’s annual reunion. Our schedule will include touring Jean Pierre’s first land in Manakin Town, where he practiced medicine, Jean Pierre’s gravesite, and settlements of his children in Cumberland and Buckingham Counties. Mary Bondurant Warren, author of “The Bondurants of Génolhac, France”, will be our tour guide. We will be eating and visiting with kin through out the weekend.

Held since 1987 in many different areas of the country, our meetings bring surprises each year. Distant cousins from all over the country have attended to share stories and meet new relatives. One of our most exciting meetings was at Bondurant School of High Performance Driving. Please join us this year in October in Virginia to meet your extended family. Contact our presidents Ginny and Carroll Wray through www.Bondurant-Family.org
