Since its founding in 1896,
the DAR Library has grown
into a specialized collection
of American genealogical
and historical manuscripts
and publications.
What better way to honor one’s lineage and heritage as a descendant of a Patriot of the American Revolutionary War than to become a member of the DAR? The Fort Dobbs Chapter, NSDAR, welcomes new members at any time throughout the year. Any woman 18 years or older, regardless of race, religion, or ethnic background, who can prove lineal descent from a Patriot of the American Revolutionary War is eligible for membership.
Members of DAR are a vibrant and active group of women who are passionate about performing service to their community, preserving history, and educating children. In addition, the DAR woman honors and supports those who serve our nation.
Potential members are invited and encouraged to contact us by email (see menu on top left of the page) or to visit one of our meetings if you have any questions about memberships, projects, or activities. Our chapter registrar will be happy to assist with the membership process.
A Patriot is anyone who supported the cause for American independence through military, civil, or patriotic service, which must have occurred during the period between April 19, 1775 and November 26, 1783. For a list of acceptable services, see the Accepted Revolutionary War Service webpage page for more information.
Feel free to review the National Society DAR Become a Member webpage for further details. Learn more about what DAR is and how to easily begin the membership process. We will welcome you with open arms.
