Presidents Corner

Greetings Cousins
August 8th, 2009 was a great day for the Foote Family. M. Jodi Rell, Governor of the State of Connecticut, officially proclaimed the day as Nathaniel Foote Monument Day in the state of Connecticut. State Senator, Paul Doyle of the 9th Senate district read the following official statement.

On behalf of the state of Connecticut, I, M. Jodi Rell, Governor, take pleasure in congratulating the Foote Family Association in recognition of the 100th anniversary of the dedication of the Nathaniel Foote Monument.

For 100 years. The Nathaniel Foote Monument has stood on the Wethersfield village green, the site of Nathaniel Foote's homestead.

The Foote Family Association of America is an organization comprised of Foote descendants, traced from 16th Century England, which was created in Wethersfield in 1907.

In celebrating the settlement of Wethersfiel's 375th anniversary and the dedication of the Nathaniel Foote Monument, the Foote Family Association of America honors our history and raises the standards of excellence in the State of Connecticut.

The Nathaniel Foote Monument has occupied a place of honor on the Wethersfield Green for many years and I commend the members of the Foote Family Association for their preservation and continued reverence of the monument.

Congratulations on this remarkable anniversary and may the Foote Family Association of America continue to flourish in the State of Connecticut for years to come.

Be proud to be a Foote!

Barbara
