That would depend on whether the file was done before or after the invention of xerox machines. DAR has been around for a long time. I understand that they aren't necessarily accepting people now based on other relatives admission to the society because they're more discriminating on the required proofs. Karen

Yes, I have considered that. Unfortunately, they charge $30 (non-refundable) to do the search for the proof papers whether they find anything or not. I will request the search as a last resort. In the DAR papers it is written that a certified copy of the Bible record was attached to the original application. This may not include the title page which I would like to have as well.
