Yes, I was aware that the Ark and Dove Society is still in operation. From what I understand they only hold a dinner once a year for their members. It is held in Maryland, so normally only those who live locally can attend. It is a very small group of members from what I gather. I don't know how well they check check for proof or scrutinize their members. In the book on The Nevilles of England and the U.S. by Mrs. John Hart Wilson, there is some mention of the Ark and Dove Society and a copy of a letter that she received from their registrar around 40 years ago. It is possible that Mrs. Wilson joined their society. Also, I think that Mrs. Walter Wayne Adams (O. Josephine Hill Adams) also may have joined. The latter wrote me about the Ark and Dove Society, and I alway had it in my mind that we could probably join (even though some of the proof is now seen as "iffy" on the earlier generations). I'd be interested to know if anyone of our numbers currently belongs to the Society or is able to join. Thanks for bringing that to the forefront again. I have left that on a back burner as well.
