The Daughters of the American Revolution: A Legacy of Patriotism

The DAR is more than just a lineage society; it’s a vibrant community of women dedicated to preserving the memory of their Patriot Ancestors and promoting education and patriotism. To join their ranks, you must demonstrate direct descent from an individual who aided the American cause during the Revolutionary War.

But who qualifies as a Patriot Ancestor? The answer is broader than you might think. While soldiers who fought in the Continental Army or local militias certainly qualify, so do many others who contributed in diverse ways:

Providers of Sustenance: Farmers and merchants who supplied food, clothing, and equipment to the troops.

Healers and Comforters: Nurses who tended to the wounded and those who offered shelter and aid to soldiers.

Community Leaders: Ministers who inspired patriotic fervor, legislators who shaped the course of the revolution, and judges who upheld the principles of liberty.

Behind-the-Scenes Heroes: Individuals who provided financial support, intelligence, or other crucial services.
