The McDowell DNA
Research Project
1st Reunion for the
DNA Participants
was held July 6th
thru July 9th in Asheville ,N.C. 2006
Check back often for
updates
We had a wonderful Reunion in 2006, we spent a day
researching at OBCGS. We went to the Grandfather
Mountain, Highland Games on Bus and toured four
McDowell Homes in 3 N.C. counties, We also helped in
a small way to form a family group to help to save
the Pleasant Garden McDowell Home in McDowell
County. I am happy to report that the McDowell
County News ran an article on our visit, and we have
seen some great progress in the saving of this
Important, North Carolina Home. We also had a
wonderful dinner on the Grounds at the Smith
McDowell House in Asheville, and came along side
their efforts to keep the Museum alive that has its
roots in the American Revolution, as well as one of
the Hero's of the Kings Mountain battle, and to
North Carolina History... IN general we had a blast
meeting each other and sharing, we formed some
really tight bonds, that have long outlasted 2006
|
We are making great progress with the DNA matches.
McDowell families are finding their connections all
over the Globe. During our first 3 years we seemed
to be gathering members, and not seeing much from
the testing, but now the results and matches are
coming in like Gangbusters. We must have passed
some mystical point in the Number of folks in the
Project . At any rate the folks joining now are all
getting matches to others in the Project and we are
busy working to connect our Documented Genealogy,
and our DNA and This is where it can be very
interesting.

records (please print) . |
Visit to Roark Cemetery
near Chris Taylor's house
in the afternoon
The Riverview Community Center (formally
Riverview Elementary/High School) is located
along the North Fork New River with a beautiful
boardwalk right along the river with large
grassy areas. The New River was designated as
one of the 10 National Heritage Rivers in the
nation. |
|
The Center is located in the middle of ROARK
Country. The Roarks were here before the
American Revolution and many of them were
involved in the battle of Kings Mountain. This
battle destroyed Major Ferguson’s British Army,
marking the beginning of the end of the
Revolutionary War. |
|
Many
descendents of these valiant pioneers still live
in the area today. Charles Roark came to this
area mid to late 1700’s. He settled only a few
miles away from the Community Center. The
foundation of his original log home still
remains on the original site located on Peak
Mountain. The Charles B. Roark log cabin will be
open for touring starting around 3:00 p.m. on
Sunday June 24, 2007. While at the home you may
get some history about who built the house and
how it has been passed down through the Roark
line to its present owner, Chris Taylor. From
the house, some may want to hike the challenging
way nearly 1/2 mile to the Roark Cemetery. The
usual route will take you near the homeplace of
Charles and Abigail Roark. Some steps and
foundation are still visible. Bring a jug if you
want to take home some fresh mountain spring
water. |
|
Roark descendants and allied families are
invited to renew old friendships and gain new
ones while participating in our reunion,
auction, lunch and Roark Cabin Tour. In
addition, our plans this year include a fun
filled Roark Genealogy Family History Day in
West Jefferson, NC at the Ashe County Public
Library Heritage Room. |
The
Roark Recipe book with recipes furnished by many
reunion members has
been published. It can be purchased at the reunion.
We will
also have Roark reunion shirts and caps.
The Riverview Community Center is located at 11719 NC
Hwy 88, Creston, NC.
From Jefferson, NC, it is approximately 15 miles from
the intersection of
State Hwy. 88 and US 221. From Trade, TN, take TN Hwy
67 to NC Hwy 88 for
approximately 15 miles. Please contact us for a map or
more details.
Please
pass this information along to other interested Roark
kin
and
invite them to join us in keeping the Roark families
alive
