Description
The Sullivan County Genealogical Society is dedicated to the preservation of history and genealogy in Sullivan County, Tennessee and surrounding areas of East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.
The group was initially organized as the Sullivan County Genealogy Club under the direction of Shelia Hunt at her residence, with 25 people in attendance. Charter members included Les Bright, Larry Robertson, Jan Combs, Kay Hamrick, Craig Miller, Mike Poe, Jerry Sharrett, Fred Wagner, Nancy Christian, and Shelia Hunt. The society's first Board of O fficers included Les Bright, President; Larry Robertson; Vice President; Peggy Ferrell, Secretary; Betty Orfield, Treasurer; and Barbara Ray, Corresponding Secretary.
During the following year, the organization appointed a chartering committee comprised of Ken Breeding, Jan Combs, Bobbie Derrick, Charlene Derrick, Earl Feathers, Shelia Hunt, Joyce Loving, and Barbara Ray. The committee d eveloped by-laws for the organization, which was officially chartered as the Sullivan County Genealogical Society on July 11, 1997. Over the course of the following year, the society rapidly grew into a larger organization with some 50-65 people in attendance at most of the meetings.
