Each February, the Morristown DAR opens their meeting to the public, exploring a chapter in American history and encouraging the public to join us and to support our troops. This year we have a two-fold celebration. We are awarding the DAR History Award Medal , a national award presented in the name of the DAR Historian General, Ann Arnold Hunter, to Historian and novelist Thomas Fleming. The purpose of the DAR History Award Medal is to honor an individual whose study and promotion of American history on the state, regional, or national level has significantly advanced our understanding of our nation's past. Mr Fleming the author of more than 20 histories and novels has done this for the last 50 years. Though a NYC resident now, Tom Flemming is a true NJ boy having grown up in Jersey City.
The second half or our celebration honors Abraham Lincoln, our 16th President before his 204th birthday. Speaker Glenn LeBeuef, a life-long resident of New Jersey, who received his degree in history from Monmouth University Will investigate Lincoln's rocky path to the presidency.
