The web site is great.  The Rivers Family is dyanamite.  With God's help, anything is possible.  May God continue His richest Blessings on all.  Love and Peace

This website is unbelievable! As a friend of Sheila Adams and John Rivers, I've had the opportunity to attend one of the River's reunions. The pride, the bond and the love of the River's family reminded me so much of my own HUGE Virginia based family. Keep up the good work and have a blast at the reunion!

Hello Everyone, For those who don't know me, I am the daughter of the late Harvey and Dorothy Rivers. I am just hearing about the Reunion today,  i would like to stay connected with family. Along with the late Sabana Rivers Pulliam, I help to coordinate the first 'full reunion' in Dinwiddie, Va. after the passing of my mom and aunt, Ruth Rivers Stith. That was the the beginning and the purpose of the reunion was to get to know our family. I have not received commuications about the reunion until last minute several times. I am not complaining but this situation needs to be addressed because I am not the only one excluded. My contt information is phoebemg@aol.com and 757-481-8007 www.phoebemarketing.com  I did not see anything on the site about the Family Tree. I had started a Family Tree to include every family member data. Family Tree members committee , if you have additional information, we can merge our information. I passed a written copy to my brother, George Rivers, current President. I just want to be part of the Family. Contact me at anytime. D. Yvonne Rivers Norfolk, Virginia

Was looking for ideas for our upcoming reunion. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hi family . You all may not know me .I am the Great grandson of  Annie Lauria Rivers.The grandson of James Rivers Sr. And the son of Wendell Rivers. I would just like to send my sypathy to Linda and Nita about your father and my family mebers.I know that we have only met one time but I love all my family .

I came upon your site by accident. I was googling for genealogical information for Sussex County. My roots are Drewryville and Capron. I visited with Mrs. Mary Rivers Harris many years ago. She had some wonderful stories about her family and history. I saw pictures of my Wyche cousins and Sturdifen relations on your site. You have put together a great site, very professional looking. Please continue it in this manner.

Hello Rivers Family,  Your website is quite an impressive testimony of how cohesion and family dedication breeds success.  I was surfing the net for information on how to establish a scholarship for the youth in my own family and came across your website.  Thank you so much, and many blessings to all of you. 

I'm looking for family of James Rivers. It would be great to know if you are a  part of his family and mine. James was a railroad worker for a majority of his life. He married Jeanette and retired in SC. James was from a large family. I believe he had 9 brothers and sisters. Unfortunately, this is all I know of him. Growing up I really didn't have much contact with him. If you have any information or if any of the information I've given sounds familiar, please contact me. I really would like to get to know my father's family.  

Hey Family,Wow we are getting hits on our site from all over.  Wouldn't it be great if some of you were actually reIated to us.  I am so happy to be apart of such a wonderful family.  This past reunion was so much fun.  It's always nice to see my family.  Congratulations to all the new Reunion officer.  I know you'll do a great job leading out family. Looking forward to '09!Love You all,Keami (Mimi)

Hello Rivers family, As I take a tour of your site I noticed you have Barnes in your family line. My ancestors were Barnes from South Carolina. Susan Barnes married Joe Harris. Do any of these names sound familiar?

Hello to all I am not sure if I am related or not. I came across this site researching family reunion planning, because I am hosting the Armstrong family reunion 2007 in Chicago. My father is Sherman Rivers and he is from Brinkley Arkansas who knows this may be another family reunion that I will need to attend Joyah

The website looks great and the family reunion was excellent. Kudoos to the planning committee. Laura Baltimore, MD

Hi Family!! I am one of Vernon Mason's granddaughters (James Mason is my father). My sisters and I attended our first Rivers Family Reunion this year, and we had an awesome time. We vow to never miss another one. Our father died in September of 1972 and, unfortunately, we were out of touch with most of our grandfather's family. With the exception of our father's half- sisters and brothers, Aunt Seabird (Vernon's sister) was the only one who looked after us and made sure we were okay. For that, we are eternally grateful and will always love her. We met a lot of family members for the first time and it was quite an emotional tilme for us. Thank you, Rivers Family, for the wonderful reunion!! We are looking forward to 2007 already.

Hello Marvin I 'm totally impressed with the family web-site! The reunion was a huge success, and no doubt it was due to communication by email that expedited things. Proud to be a Rivers we love and miss everyone Cheryl & Patrice L.A. CA
