Welcome
We are delighted that you would like to learn about the Joseph Montfort Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR). Furthermore, we are always honored to share information with those who are interested in the DAR, and we continually look for new opportunities to promote DAR objectives within our local community. Our members are committed to promoting historic preservation, education, and patriotism. We enjoy our volunteer activities and are proud to make a difference in the lives of our community, state, and country.
In addition to our regular meetings, our chapter sponsors educational awards and scholarships. We supportĀ Crossnore Communities for Children and volunteer with our veterans. We honor our American Revolutionary War ancestors, recognize outstanding citizens in our area, and sponsor history essays.
Each member is a direct descendant of a Patriot of the American Revolutionary War.
How to Join
Interested in becoming a member? DAR members are women who come from diverse backgrounds and hold a variety of interests. Their common bond is their lineal descent from Patriots of the American Revolutionary War.
Any woman who is at least 18 years old and can prove direct lineage from a Patriot of the American Revolutionary War is eligible for membership. You are welcome to visit one of our meetings where we can answer questions about membership, projects, or activities. Our chapter registrar will be happy to assist with the membership process.
