Membership in the NSDAR is a unique opportunity to establish one's
lineage and heritage as a descendent of a patriot of the American
Revolution. Applicants interested in participating in the historical,

and through her chapter and state organization she contributes her
service to the collective strength and progress of the National Society
of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
