Find Your Own Patriot Ancestor
Did you know that the DAR houses one of the premiere genealogy
collections in the country at its headquarters in Washington,
D.C. The DAR
Genealogical Research System (GRS) lets anyone look for a
Patriot ancestor or a descendant from the comfort of their home. There
are also links to search the DAR Library collection of Bible records,
books, and other types of records. Additionally, the Illinois State
Organization has an
extensive collection of genealogical research material in the Illinois
DAR Genealogical Library housed in the C.E. Brehm Library in Mt.
Vernon, Illinois. Within our chapter, there are ladies who can
help you in your goal to become a member of DAR. We would welcome you
at
one of our meetings to get to know each other. Contact us for our
meeting times and
location.
