The
International Twins Association was organized by and for twins in 1934. It is a non-profit, family-oriented organization to promote the spiritual, intellectual, and social welfare of twins and multiples throughout the world.
The first known reunion of twins was hosted in 1930 by Rev. Edward M. Clink and his twin sister, Elsie, of Silver Lake, Indiana with 13 sets of twins present from his congregation. By 1934, this reunion had been nationalized. In 1937, it went "international" and was incorporated. The conventions were all held in northern Indiana during this period of time. Since 1939, the conventions have moved from city to city throughout the United States. In 1980, the convention was held in Toronto, Canada. It was the first time the convention was held outside of the United States.
Each year on Labor Day weekend, we hold a convention at a different location. The location is determined by a vote of the members 2 years in advance during our annual business meeting.
