Ellie, I suspect that a lot of the members of the UDC are also members of the DAR. It would not surprise me if someone told me that the UDC was formed by Southern chapters of the DAR. I unfortunatately do not belong to either. I belong to the SAR, SCV, and SUV. (But the other groups I belong to include NOW, and several related organizations ...)

Yes, I just re-read some of the emails.. The DAR and UDC aren't connected and do not share information... However if anyone is interested in the DAR, please contact me.

I am a member of the DAR, and I can assure you that they have no connection to the UDC. DAR looks at the connection to a Revolutionary War Patriot or supporter, and have no affiliation to any auxiliary of the Civil War daughters. Lanita
