Who are the Daughters of the American Revolution aka DAR?
The Daughters of the American Revolution are an organization of American women who can prove that they are blood-descendents of someone who fought in the American Revolutionary War. The organization holds benefits, meetings, fundraisers, etc and is a good place to discuss and learn about American geneology. I am DAR myself. Although it is commonly believed that one cannot be DAR if born out of wedlock, this is actually false. Anyone with direct lineage to a “patriot” can claim DAR membership.
