Do You Need Help Finding Your Ancestors?
The ANCESTOR SEARCH DATABASE was created by and is maintained by the staff of the NSDAR Office of the Registrar General. The data is updated daily from verified membership applications and supplemental applications. The Ancestor Database is part of the NSDAR Genealogical Research System (GRS), a free resource provided by the NATIONAL SOCIETY DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION (NSDAR) to aid general genealogical research and to assist with the DAR membership process. This collection of databases provides access to the many materials amassed by the DAR since its founding in 1890.
