How to Become a Member
DAR members come from many different backgrounds and have a wide range of interests, but every member shares one important connection: each has an ancestor who supported the cause of American independence. These patriot ancestors included men and women who served as soldiers, privateers, business owners, and others who contributed in meaningful ways to the Revolutionary effort.
​
Any woman age 18 or older, regardless of race, religion, or ethnic background who can document direct lineal descent from a Revolutionary War patriot is eligible for membership.
Curious whether you have a qualifying ancestor or need help researching your lineage? We’re here to guide you every step of the way.
Visit the DAR website, or contact our Regent for more information.

The Fort Findlay DAR website is dedicated in memory of:
Dr. Arleathia Carter Williams
​
Dr. Arleathia Carter Williams was one of the first African-American women to take the oath of membership at National Headquarters in Washington, D.C. She was also the first African-American member of the Fort Findlay Chapter NSDAR. On March 27, 2004, the mayor of Findlay issued a proclamation to declare this day as Arleathia Williams Day for the City of Findlay, Ohio.
