WHEREAS, it is the purpose of the ELLER FAMILY ASSOCIATION to research, record and publish ELLER FAMILY history through out the world, and

WHEREAS, many ELLER and related families have done much to record and preserve the history of their individual family line. It is one of the goals of the ELLER FAMILY ASSOCIATION to bring these researchers together. Through the cooperative efforts of this diverse and far-flung group of people much has been accomplished in a short time. Much is yet to be done, and

WHEREAS, the ELLER FAMILY ASSOCIATION wishes to recognize members who have made remarkable contributions, by establishing the ELLER FAMILY ASSOCIATION AWARD, to be presented at the biennial ELLER FAMILY CONFERENCE to a member who researches, compiles and submits for publication a notable amount of ELLER genealogy, stories, or records for publication and sharing with all ELLERS, worldwide.

He has made phone calls all over the United States, and written letters to Europe interviewing and soliciting ELLER news and records After working diligently to establish the ELLER FAMILY ASSOCIATION, he insured it's success by juggling three jobs at once: President, editor, and publisher of the ELLER CHRONICLES. We hereby present, for the first time, this ELLER FAMILY ASSOCIATION AWARD to JAMES GERALD ELLER.
