Okay - question - my person who's supporting me for DAR is on vacation and I want to know, lol. Okay - say I have to prove my patriot. I guess he was previously proven by his signature on the Ten thousand Signature Petition of 1776. do I now need more? and if so - what? Can I have some examples of what I'm looking for and suggestions on where I might find it? Say, he gave beef to the troops or something... where the heck would those documents be?? thanks Julie in CA --------------------------------- Ahhh...imagining that irresistible "new car" smell?

Julie, starting with your own birth, you must document each line until you prove you are directly descended to the patriot. For you, you must supply birth and marriage (if applicable). You must prove the births, marriage, deaths of your parents. Depending on whether it is your maternal or paternal line, your proceed to prove their birth, marriage, death. You keep on going until you reach your patriot. With luck he has already been proven. If not, you will need to research his involvement in the RW. If you go to: www.dar.org You will find a section regarding proving your lineage and membership in the DAR.

James, No question is a dumb one - that how we all learn. I had never heard of the Ten Thousand Signature Petition of 1776 until the posting, but I would be interested to learn about it.
