Hello everyone. I am Tracy, who's family used to be called The English Waltons in the 90's.If anyone remembers me I would love to reconnect on here. I was a longtime member of The Waltons Friendship Society and have all my newsletters and correspondence etc.I had a lot of contact with Irene Porter, we even appeared on C4 television together. I appeared in articles in newspapers and magazines and even did a Radio 2 interview about my family lifestyle.

Hi Tracy, I used to be a member of the Waltons Friendship Society many years ago. I think I still have the newsletters I received. I met Irene at a Waltons Reunion in Virginia a few years ago. Welcome to the forum.

Hi Tracy,
I also used to be a member of the Waltons Friendship Society and had a lot of the newsletters. You and Brenda are lucky to still have your newsletters, mine got lost in a house move. I really loved that newsletter. Was it called Mailbox? That's what I remember.
I'd love to collect them again if any become available.
I did find the episode guide that they printed, which I'd put into a folder, so that's how it survived. It's all I have left from them.
I'd love to hear more about your family The English Waltons.

Hi Tracy, and welcome to our forum. It is wonderful to have you join us.
I didn't know anything about The Waltons Friendship Society. I just noted on TheWaltons.com website, there's a description of them, which I assume has not been updated for awhile. There was someone on our forum (Martin) who told us he had taken over for Irene Porter. His post is here. But the link he gave does not work, so presumably he wasn't able to get the society, moved to that link.

Thanks for that info Johnny. It's such a shame that nothing came of Martin's plans, isn't it.
