About the DAR

The DAR was founded in 1890 as a volunteer service organization for women. The Society has three main objectives: patriotism, historic preservation, and education.

DAR has members throughout the United States and the world. Membership is based upon documented lineal ancestry, linking each member to a Patriot in the American Revolution.

To learn more about becoming a member, visit the National Society web site or contact the Battle of Alamance Chapter Regent.
