FL,
Under "Eligibility" is the information you are looking for. Here-->http://www.dar.org/natsociety/conten...=145&hd=n&FO=Y

"Any woman is eligible for membership who is no less than eighteen years of age and can prove lineal, blood line descent from an ancestor who aided in achieving American independence. She must provide documentation for each statement of birth, marriage, and death."

That's a lot of fickin documentation

GO BRITIAN!!!!

I mean, seriously, since ancestory is such a lovely thing
owell...
go with the flow then

waves her American flag around...wee...
I love my country. But then again... I love all countries.
Definately won't be given a security job.


The research involved with the DAR would be significantly too much for a high membership base. It is my guess though that actual people who "could" trace their lineage that far would be many.
