Sixty descendants were present to represent the three sons of John Conard (1738-1803), a Revolutionary War soldier of Loudoun County, Va. John's son, Nathan, with wife, Hannah Butcher, came to Ohio in 1806 and were among the first settlers in Burlington Township, Licking County. The County History says of hen "Hannah Conard is considered one of the oldest and best of Licking County pioneers." Nathan's brother, Joseph, married Jane Butcher of Virginia, a sister of Hannah and in 1808, came to Ohio, settled near the present village of Utica, being the first settler in Washington Township of Licking County. The oldest son, Anthony, who died in Ohio in 1840, was represented at the reunion by descendants from the state of Kansas. Angela Conard of Kemp, Texas, traveled the farthest.

Second was Athlyn Luzier of Colorado, who is the Conard-Cunard family historian, having compiled many volumes of Conard history. Ohio areas represented included Johnstown, Newark, St Louisville, Zanesville, Findlay, Columbus, Toledo, Piqua and Kent. Six Conard men present were Larry and Thomas, sons of the late Newton Conard of Johnstown; Carroll of Hebron, son of the late Merrill Conard; Donald Conard and his son Kyle of Columbus and Reed Conard of Kent Six cousins present, who also attended the reunion 75 years ago were Gertrude Melick Mumford, Eugene Melick and Joseph Melick, John Weaver and Edith Conard Dunlap.
