An Invitation to Join.....
with almost 500* other FOOTE families
Who Are We? The Foote Family Association of America is intended to be the reorganization of the original Foote Family Association of America formed June 5, 1907, at Wethersfield, Connecticut. It is an organization, which formed to preserve the records of the family posterity and to provide the means for reviving, forming, and perpetuating Foote Family friendships and associations.
We trace our roots back to the early 1500's in England.
As a result of many years of researching family histories, we have amassed a great deal of information about our ancestors and their movements from Colchester England to this country. The period of time involved encompasses some 478 years from the birth of our oldest ancestor to the present.
We are in no way related to the Foote Family Association of North America, although. Of course their members are welcome in this association. Cultivation of friendship between all Foote Family Associations, either formal or informal, is a purpose of this organization.
Membership in this Association is open to all descendants of the FOOTE name, along with their husbands, wives, children, and widows or widowers. Membership is a family Membership which includes husband, wife, and their children under 18 years of age.
The Constitution of our Association requires us to :
- Encourage and develop family contacts among all members of the FOOTE Family.
- Encourage and develop the study of the genealogy of each branch of the FOOTE family.
The benefits of membership are:
- A Biennial Reunion - The Foote Family Associa-tion of America, Inc. will hold the 2013 bi-annual reunion in Burlington, VT. The Reunion hosted by your president and husband Mi-chael, will be held on June 6 -June 9th 2013. We will be staying at the Best Western Windjammer Inn and Conference Center. The inn is located at 1076 Williston Road, South Bur-lington, VT.
- A quarterly Newsletter of family activities, history and genealogical events.
- An opportunity to acquire historical and collectible items, with the family crest applied from The Foote Shoppe, which will fund the Association and several foundation-type activities.

- The opportunity to become a contributing member that develops, preserves and perpetuates the Association for our heritage through building family values and associations.

Family Data Sheets:
The Foote Family Association of America is continuing Mr. Abram Footes' work by publishing volume III of Foote Family Genealogy. Volume III will contain the descendants of each of the children of Nathaniel Foote the Settler. The descendants of each child will be published in separate books of Volume III.
Book 1 of Volume III, Elizabeth Foote is currently in print and available for purchase. Book 2, Mary Foote is near completion and the FFAA is working on Book 3, Sara Foote.
