In addition to Lanita's explanation on acquiring records for DAR membership from Revolutionary Pension files, there are two other websites that those interested can access and use that are very helpful. One is Heritage Quest, they now offer a search engine for those who served in the Revolutionary War. If you find your ancestor, you can then look at the actual images of their records, and print them off. Some I have looked at had anywhere from 1 to 10 pages of records on that person. Heritage Quest is offered by many Libraries, Mid Continent Library is the one I go through and I use my library card number for my access to the website, and it is free for us to use at home. Many libraries also have use of Ancestry.com Plus, and you do need to go to the library to use their computer to access it. Another good website is the David Library of the American Revolution. They have a massive collection of war records there, and they do a great job of looking up your ancestor and copying the most useful records for you. They do charge a small fee, but not nearly as much as it would cost through the National Archives for your information. Here is that address: David Library of the American Revolution PO Box 748 Washington Crossing, PA 18977 215-493-6776; Fax: 215-493-9276 General Information E-Mail: [email protected] Research E-Mail: [email protected]
