Purpose:
In an
effort to preserve Tryon family traditions and help the
younger generations learn about their family, Deb Stoneman
(Ray's daughter) and Carri Kistner (Ray's granddaughter) are
putting together a cookbook of treasured recipes. It is
hoped that recipes will be included that share precious
memories of Tryon gatherings over the years during holidays
and other special occasions.
Scope:
Contributions are requested from the family of
Clarence and Dorothy Tryon, including the extended
family (i.e. children, grandchildren, great grandchildren,
siblings, cousins, etc.). It is estimated that there are
over 100 family members who are available to help with this
project. Ideally everyone will contribute 2-4 recipes.
Goal:
-
Participation from ALL TRYONS !!
- Collect
300-400 recipes
- Include photo
of contributor with each recipe
- Include quotes
with recipes that describe:
- Memories/traditions related to the dishes (i.e. One of

event of duplicate recipes, multiple photos and comments
will be included.
