Founded in 1890, there are approximately 3,000 chapters located across the United States and around the world. The original Congressional Charter tasks the NSDAR to locate the unmarked graves of revolutionary soldiers and their wives and to report these findings to the Smithsonian and Congress. DAR chapters and members support historic restorations and act to preserve historic revolutionary landmarks. The DAR provides scholarships to outstanding students and supports citizenship.<\/p>

The first step to membership in DAR is to gather the genealogical information that you already have and contact our chapter<\/strong><\/a>. We will guide you through the application process and answer any questions you may have. You do not need to have completed your genealogical research in order to start the application process toward becoming a Daughter. We welcome you to attend one of our chapter meetings which are held from February through June and September through December.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
