For the modest dues of $15 a year, The Clopton Family Association facilitates reunions, sends you updates through newsletters (published in October and May) and other mailings, and promotes preservation of historic sites and genealogical research. In the newsletter you will read interesting information on the Cloptons and related families, historic sites, items of historical and genealogical note, and updates on members of all generations.

Please submit relevant articles and photos to our Newsletter Editor, Joyce Chiles-Hines, at newsletter@cloptonfamily.net.

If you are renewing your membership:

1. Pay annual dues to continue receiving our newsletter and invitations to upcoming reunions.  You may pay online or mail a $15 check payable to "CFA" to our Secretary/Treasure along with your current contact information.  The address is on our CFA Registration Form, or you can request the address at membership@cloptonfamily.net. 
2. If you already have a CFA Registration Form for Membership on file, please do not resubmit a new form except to expand or correct information previously submitted (see U.S.Cloptons and U.K. Cloptons).
