Greetings to All!
Response to the last TFAA newsletter was wonderful. Many emails from Tipton family and descendants all over the country came in. We have over 150 addresses in our email distribution lists. My thanks to everyone who forwarded the newsletter. Dozens of new people are being informed of the family association and its goals.
Most of the funding needed to launch the TFAA website is in hand. We need another two hundred dollars.
To support the Website Project, please send your donation to the Tipton Family Association of America at 314 Oak Place, Asheville, North Carolina, 28803 in care of John Parrish, President.

I am very proud and happy to be President of the Tipton Family Association of America. I want to thank Robert Tipton Nave for nominating me for the office and the association members for their confidence in electing me at our October meeting. I plan to devote time and energy to our family’s association providing the public with knowledge of the achievements of the Tiptons and helping descendants obtain the information they seek about our Tipton family.
