January 3, 2021. Hello!! My name is Janet Huntley.  I am the Membership Chair and Treasurer of the Huntley National Association.  Welcome to our blog! I will use this forum to share interesting news that comes along that may be of interest to the Huntley community. What is the Huntley National Association you ask??  …… Good Question!!

 

In 1944, a man named Royce E. Huntley, from Phoenix, New York, wrote a newsletter titled “We, Who Are Huntleys” in hopes of bringing together Huntleys from all over North America. After two issues, Royce said “it died of exhaustion.” However, in the 1946 issue, he proposed holding a reunion in Old Lyme, Connecticut, during the July 4^th weekend 1947. That weekend, more than 50 people gathered at the Rogers Lake Club House in Lyme and the Huntley National Association was born. Since then, the Huntleys have come together once a year to “meet nice people and make friends.”   To date, more than 2800 Huntleys and their spouses from the United States and Canada have joined the HNA…… WOW!!

 

So, what’s going on in the world of HNA today??  My sister, Lori, and I are busy planning the 75^th Diamond Jubilee Reunion to be held on August 6-8, 2021 in Groton, CT.  We have a lot of fun activities planned. It will be a most enjoyable weekend!! More information will be provided in April…. But be sure to save the date!!

 Groton, CT is the submarine capital of the world…. Do you know why??

 

We also have moved into the 21^st century and have a Facebook page.

 

 

 

Wait a minute, what???..... you say you are not an HNA member??? Well let’s take care of that!! 

All persons, eighteen years or older, who by birth or marriage can trace their relationship to any Huntley or Huntly who migrated from the British Isles to North America may become a member of the Huntley National Association.

 

Contact me by email and I will send you an application to join. Dues are only $10 a year and you get a spring bulletin in April and Reunion Booklet in August.

 

That’s it for now!!!
