C. Jarvis Insurance Agency is a family-owned business founded by Charles C. Jarvis in 1946 and currently owned and operated by Charles’ daughter Patricia and his granddaughter Kimberly. The Jarvis family has lived and worked in the lush and beautiful horse country of Ohio for generations, and has been personally involved with Arabian horses for over a half-century. Though Charles Jarvis did not personally own horses, he was particularly fond of them and was recognized throughout the state as a major horse show benefactor and class sponsor. As time passed Patricia and Kimberly Jarvis grew up riding and exhibiting horses. Their involvement with horses, especially Arabian horses, was a major factor in their focus on the importance of horse insurance, as each of them became an integral part of the family business.
