A post about several topics!

Donations welcomed

Thank you to all who have donated to the Violette Family Association! Those go to support our work and are more important since we have not had a Reunion to provide revenues since 2014. Our expenses are not many: we have the web site costs to cover, but the greatest expense is printing and mailing newsletters. We do newsletters on an irregular basis, but currently try to publish one about every 8-9 months.

Donations can be sent by mail to the Treasurer (Louiselle Violette, 12 Woodland Circle, Bow NH 03304) or to the President (David Violette, 2050 W Dunlap Ave, Lot D54, Phoenix AZ 85021). Choose the latter if you are also sending family information or have questions.

You can also donate securely online at our web site VioletteRegistry.com. There is a Donate Button at the bottom of every page. We use PayPal, but you don’t have to be a PayPal member to use this service with any credit card.

No Reunion plans

We still have no group planning for a Reunion of the Association. We welcome any group who would like to host an Association Reunion in their area. The Association has lots of resources to help plan and carry out a Reunion. You can get more details at the web site: go to The Association/Reunions/Reunion Guidelines.

Want to plan a local Gathering?

Perhaps you would like to have smaller gathering of Violettes from your area! It would be a good way to join with your own family but also get a chance to meet some “cousins” you never knew but who live near to you. We can help by providing a list of Violette Association members who live in your area. The list can be filtered by state, postal code, or however. Just let us know.

We can provide genealogical info for those attending; we need to know in advance who will be there, of course.

We can also publicize your Gathering in our news so it reaches others. Naturally we would want photos and a report of any event you do have!
