Our guest speaker this month is Linda Horner, the Registrar for The National Pike Chapter of the DAR.  She has been very active in the DAR and a member of National Pike Chapter for nearly 12 years.  Today she will be discussing the DAR and also what is required to become a Daughter of the American Revolution.   

The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) is a lineage-based organization founded in 1890 that promotes historic preservation, education, and patriotism among women who are direct descendants of American Revolutionary War Patriots.  The DAR Library houses one of the largest genealogical collections in the United States.  The collection focuses primarily on the generation of the American Revolution.
