Meet with others who are interested in joining or learning the benefits of joining an Ancestor Lineage Society.

There are many societies honoring veterans of various wars, from the first wars against the native Americans through those wars some of us remember. The most famous of these are the DAR and SAR, Daughters (and Sons) of the American Revolution. However it is not just warrior ancestors that have lineage societies. From early Artisans through Tavernkeepers, virtually every occupation has a society that honors them.

And there are societies for the very early immigrants. Not only the Mayflower and Jamestowne Societies, but also First Founders of many states and towns, especially in New England.

The dates for qualification vary. NSDOAF, the group for American Farmers, covers the years 4 Jul 1776 – 4 Jul 1914 and honors current farmers as well as ancestors. Basically, if you have any ancestors in the US early, you may well qualify to join a Lineage Society.

Jan 30 is the inaugural meeting for this group.
