I was at the research library for my county today and picked up a copy of the DAR Patriot Index, and copied all the entries for DENSMORE, DINSMORE, DUNSMOOR, DUNSMORE What I copied is below - please note that I am NOT a member of DAR, nor do I have any further information than what I have included, so please do not ask me any questions about the entries. BTW my ancestor is the first 'John' listed, and he's the only one I really know much about at all. For more info, see http://www.dar.org/ Hope this helps someone, Gail from DAR Patriot Index, Centennial Edition, Part I Natl. Soc. of the Daughters of the American Revolution Centennial Administration Mrs. Eldred Martin Yochim, President General Washington: 1900 Copyright 1994 Note from Roberta S. Stimpson, Registrar General, NSDAR "This Index does not include all available information on patriots no does it identify their children. Questions regarding further data on a patriot or his children cannot be answered in detail by the Registrar General's office; however, a photocopy of an application paper of a related member may be obtained for a fee. Remember that NSDAR requires proof only for the child through whom a member descends. "Requests for photocopies of application papers should be mailed to the Registrar General, NSDAR, Record Copy, 1776 D Street, NW, Washington D.C. 20006-5392, with a check made payable to 'The Treasurer General, NSDAR.'
