The families include all those related to
Ulysse and Fleurine Paroz, nee Monnier
Frederick Juillerat and Elise, nee Paroz
Edouard Constant Paroz and Ernestine Wilhelmine Augusta Schulz
The reunion is usually held on the 2nd Sunday in September each year.
Every five years, we hold a reunion at Ma Ma Creek where the family originally settled.
The Ma Ma Creek Hall also offers similar facilities.
The first Paroz reunion was held on 24 September 24 1980. Some photos from this reunion can be found by following the link to

More than 1000 descendants and families attended this reunion and a small history was produced detailing the family as we knew it then.
Canton to Colony was produced by the Paroz Family Reunion Committee in 1980.
