We are located in Gastonia which is in Gaston County; formed from Lincoln County in 1846. This area has abundant local history and genealogical resources.
Our chapter is named in honor of Major William Chronicle who was killed during the Battle of Kings Mountain. Organized in 1924, our chapter was officially chartered on February 12, 1926. For more information, please visit our Chapter History and Profile of Major William Chronicle pages.
Our meetings are held on the second Friday in September, November, January, March, and April at 11:30 a.m. Meetings feature a program related to historical preservation, history, education, or support of veterans.
Our members support many local community activities and DAR activities that promote education, services and historic preservation. For more information, please visit Awards and Scholarships, Service Projects, and Historic Preservation pages.
