He participated heavily on the American Revolutionary Rootsweb List I have been on and he is awesome. Try asking him for direction as to what area in Missouri handles DAR questions for Missouri counties that don't have a DAR body to help those who are asking for information. I noticed also that that 2/3 of the DAR websites on the url I sent below don't work or aren't being used today...so here's a wonderful resource. This man's knowledge is GREAT! Grundset, Eric [egrundset@dar.org] I am happy to help anyone wanting the names of chapters in any state. I am a DAR member, former ONLINE lookup coordinator and past regent.. Not all counties have chapters, but I do know there is one in Columbia... maybe two.. However not all chapters have email contacts. Then the queries go to the state email site and they are forwarded in that matter. Just let me know.. Ellie Stites Swanger, CO (formerly a Missourian) Descendant of 3 Missouri CW soldiers: John T. Stites, killed at Vicksburg William W. Sloan, drew the pension until his death in 1920 Thomas J. Lemons, came home ill and died a couple of years later.
