Our PurposeWe are a family organization that puts as great an emphasis on the fellowship of modern Locke descendants as on the traditional genealogical pursuits of collecting and publishing data and preserving Locke artifacts. Our Annual ReunionsWe hold an annual reunion to celebrate the family's accomplishments every year on the third Saturday in August, usually in Rye, New Hampshire. We have done this since our founding without fail, even through two world wars. Over 300 cousins attended our 100th reunion and over 100 cousins commemorated the 300th anniversary of the death of our ancestor, Captain John Locke. Look at what we did at the 119th Reunion this past summer. |
NewsThe 120th Locke Family Association Reunion will be held in the Finger Lakes region of New York running Friday, July 30 through Sunday, August 1, 2010, with the annual meeting on Saturday. Programs will focus on celebrating Locke women, so contribute some of those stories to our VP Kate Aghaghiri <kaghaghi at rochester.rr.com>. More details can be found at the 120th Reunion 2010 page, or download the brochure (it is big). More NewsSupplement III, originally announced in the Fall 2003 issue of the newsletter, has kicked off.
