[Genealib] DAR

No, this does not vary by state or chapter

 

I don't know what year she attempted to join.  Perhaps that made a
difference, but that would not be the case now.  Her CAR application,
however, I believe would not be accepted as documentation.  I'd have to
double check that for sure.

 

The Registrar of the Chapter she wanted to join should have helped her
fill out a DAR application using the National Numbers of any relative
where the generations had been proved as documentation.  Other
generations would have to be documented.

Interesting, my mother, who was a CAR (Children of the American
Revolution) was told that she would have to reprove her CAR application
to become a DAR; even though her mother, aunt, and grandmother had been
members of the DAR and their membership numbers were on her application.
She was upset about that and has not attempted to join since and at her
age may never do so.

 

Does this vary by state or chapter?

	I am a DAR member and have been Registrar
	for my chapter, having helped oodles of ladies complete their
	applications.  I have also attended a week long, intensive
training
	session at DAR on the requirements for completing applications
and conduct
	workshops on how to join DAR.

	 

	 

	 

	You do not have to re-prove generations
	that have already been documented.  You can just refer to the
DAR National
	number of the person that you are related to and that will
suffice for
	documentation.  I

	 

	 

	 

	It is true that DAR will not accept SAR
	applications as documentation.

	Hi:
	
	Actually DAR and SAR requirements are NOT THE SAME.  Often time
in SAR you
	are allowed to join on your Father or Grandfather   but in DAR
you
	must re-prove each Step.. Record copies of SAR application that
have been
	approved are usually questioned and not accepted by the DAR  in
these
	later years.. It is still the wiser decision to contact the
National
	Organizations eac.. individually  www.SAR.ORG 
	for the updated versions. Steve

	SAR's requirements are the same as DAR except you only have to
prove the
	bloodline back to the patriot.

	Wanda, I don't have handouts, but I normally refer potential
members to
	the local DAR chapter and give them the excellent DAR web site
because
	the Society has specific procedures and requirements for
membership. I
	haven't been asked about SAR membership yet.

	Do any of you have handouts with resources that you give to
customers

share.
