The web hosting service no longer provides file transfer service with the current service level that this site uses. Contact the webmaster to obtain these files.

This page explains how to use the File Sharing 2 webpage.  File Sharing 2 (the next page) allows you to download files on to your computer. Prior years' files are either in Microsoft Word (.doc) or Adobe portable document file (pdf) format and are in the respective folder. The current files are not in the folders. You can download and edit the Microsoft Word files. Virtually any computer is able to read the Adobe.pdf files, thought they are more difficult to convert a file you can edit.

  1. Click (may take a double click) on the file that you want to download.
  2. A dialog box will open showing locations on your computer
  3. Choose the location where you want the file to be copied on your computer.
  4. You can change the name of the file.

The files currently available include the following:

2013 Reunion information

Charles Lott, a local historian for Perryville Battlefield Historical Site, researched Robert David Clay Blain and his role in the Civil War, focusing on the events that lead up to and including the Battle of Perryville in 1862. Here is the research from which Charles Lott gave his presentation at the Perryville Reunion, RobertBlain.doc and RobertBlain.pdf.

Agenda and Objectives for Today's Meeting

This is the agenda for the day of the family reunion.  Of course, the most important things to do are eating and visiting.  We also play organized games.  Some family representatives meet to determine how we will keep this annual tradition alive and relevant.  We keep minutes of those business meetings, which are posted here. 

Minutes of the Business Meetings

Blaine Opening Script

For years, Moreland Blaine called us to order and focused us on the activities of the day.  Each year, he did it "off the cuff."  Other family members have now assumed this task. They need a script and here it is.

We will return the originals.

This website is designed to help you. Please help the WebMaster by providing your editorial comments and feedback.
