Seeking Descendants of Our Founding Fathers
Seeking Descendants of the Founding Fathers
As we approach our centennial anniversary a gala celebration is being prepared for our organization and for the City of Roses. We would like to invite the descendants of our past members to be recognized and honored as a part in our centennial celebration.
To this end the Royal Rosarians need your help!
We are diligently looking for descendants of past Royal Rosarians. We especially seek descendants of the first Royal Rosarians in 1912, our Founding Fathers. We would like to connect with them to hear their stories, ask to view their Royal Rosarian memorabilia, and hear what family photographs they may have from years gone by they would be willing to share with or allow us to copy. If there are others who may not be descendants but have old photographs and memorabilia we would like to hear from you also.
For any photographs we would like to have the following information if it is known:
-Who the photograph belongs to and contact information
-Who is in the photo, if known
-The year it was taken, if known
-The event where it was taken
Even if you do not know all or any of the information, tell us what you have and maybe we can help with the identification.
If you have old photos, memorabilia to share or would like more information, we would appreciate you contacting the Royal Rosarian Centennial Committee at centennial@royalrosarians.org,
or contact us by mail at,
