Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
I have been in contact with the Association's
webmaster and apparently there is something going on
with the server. I will update when I know more. If
you need membership information, I can assist.

I'm also trying to access this website. Just recently became aware of my Chastain roots. Elijah Chastain born in 1776 was my grandmother's (Lucy Jewell Cavender) great, great grandfather. From what I've been able to gather from further research is that Elijah was John Chastain's son and Dr Pierre Chastain's great grandson. My daughter is doing a heritage project at school and we have both become quite interested in our "roots". I'm also hoping to find someone who has a copy of the book Chastain Kith and Kin by Mary Farnsworth-Milligan.
The Manakin Huguenot Society will have its 2005 annual meeting, June 9-11, at
our national headquarters outside Richmond. One of our events for members
will be a tour of early Huguenot sites, including, we hope, the Pierre Chastain
gravesite.
All of you who are descendants of Pierre Chastain are eligible for
membership. If you plan to apply, you can visit our headquarters to document your
ancestry. To make an appointment to see our librarian, please go to
www.huguenot-manakin.org
We are working hard to document the history of Pierre Chastain and his
descendants, and family histories are welcomed in our research library. We are
seeking to give much deserved recognition to the Huguenot families who were so
vital to the settling of Virginia and the creation of our United States.
On a personal note, I am trying to round up material for a paper on Huguenots
who lived in Williamsburg in the 18th Century. Copies of family letters and
papers and photographs of paintings or artifacts would be most welcome, as
well as clues to this history. We have a museum and research library at
headquarters and all this material will eventually be preserved there.
Thanks for your help,

Kathie,
There appears to be a problem with the site, I have been having the same problem for several days now. My cousin in Arkansas first brought it to my attention this past weekend. Hopefully the webmaster will get this fixed soon.

I'm a Chastain by birth, and have been trying desperately to enter the Chastain Association Website, but to date, access is denied. Does anyone know how to get into the website? My great-grandfather, was John M. Chastain, son of Abner Chastain, Father of William Chastain, my grandfather. Anyone with any information, or knowledge of how to get into the site, would be greatly received.
