Annual Reunion 2025

The 2025 Pierre Chastain Family Association (PCFA) 50th Annual Family Reunion is on! It will be held in Greenville, South Carolina at the Homewood Suites on 102 Carolina Point, Greenville, SC 29607.  

All Chastain (and all spelling variants; Chasteen, Shasteen, etc.) descendants are invited to attend, PCFA members and non-members along with other family members and friends. The reunion is a scheduled two days of socializing and discussing family connections.  A great time to visit with "cousins" from all over the country.  And, the opportunity to learn more about your Chastain ancestry, giving all a chance to ask questions about their relatives, share research, collaborate, and hopefully gain more knowledge about Chastain genealogy and family history. 

The conference will begin with a PCFA Board meeting on Thursday, October 2nd at 6pm, PCFA members are invited to attend.  Then the main festivities/activities will begin on Friday, October 3rd at 8am with registration. As usual, there will be presentations scattered throughout the day, genealogy discussions, a field trip to visit historic sites of our ancestors in the area, evening activities on Friday and Saturday with the meeting concluding after the Saturday evening meal. An agenda detailing all activities will be posted here and on social media once a few additional items have been finalized.
