The Reesor Book

A Genealogical and Historical Collection

For generations, Reesor Family members have treasured the records of their ancestors, along with the oral history that has accompanied each, and passed them on to their descendants, together with a time-honoured appreciation of their inherent value to family and community life.

A committee of family members was formed in recognition of the need for a collective effort in preserving these experiences and, in 1928 published the first Reesor family genealogy. Response to this work was so positive that, since then, four more editions have been assembled and made available to family members - in 1934, 1950, 1980, and 2000. This published work, entitled "The Reesor Family in Canada - a Trail Through the Centuries", is usually referred to as the "Reesor Book".

After publishing the 2000 book, Reesor genealogical updates continued to be received. It was decided that an updated Reesor Book, in CD format only, be published for the Reesor Bicentennial in 2004. In October of that year the CD became available and contains genealogical information current to July, 2004.

The following editions of the Reesor Book are available for purchase: 1928 reproduction, 1950, 1980, 2000, 2004 CD. For pricing and purchasing information, click here.
