The 92nd annual Corbly Reunion will be held on Sunday, June 30th at the John Corbly Memorial Baptist Church in Garards Fort, PA. The reunion will follow the 9:30am Sunday Morning Service.

The Corbly association was formed to honor the contributions of Reverend John Corbly, a prominent early settler of western Pennsylvania. Reverend Corbly served in the militia during the Revolutionary War and started over 30 Baptist churches in Kentucky, Pennsylvania and Virginia (now West Virginia). In a tragic event, his 2nd wife and 3 children were massacred by Indians as they travelled from their home to a church service in Garards Fort. Two other daughters were scalped but lived through their ordeal. Reverend Corbly was married three times and had 17 children. A reunion of his descendants was initiated in 1932 and continues to the present day. The event is always held the last Sunday in June at the John Corbly Memorial Baptist church in Garards Fort, PA. It is open to all Corbly descendants as well as those interested in the early history of western Pennsylvania.
