Not so Anita. The DAR requries doucuments to prove your lineage....Each generation must have been proven by either census, marriage, death, birth or any other papers you can produce. Then there must be proof that your soldier served during the Revolutionary War. We think of men serving but there were women patriots as well. On one of my supplementals they refused him but with the correct information it was corrected and now that information will help someone else who wishes to join under him. It's always such a good feeling to know that we have the ways and means to correct old information. Those persons 100 or 200 years ago did not have the advantages we do now days. Thank goodness they left their information for ALL of us to use and had the "get up and go" to do all the leg work. Off my soap box.
