Who do they think was fighting and bleeding in the revolution, atheists and muslims?

I know what these three believed in, they were Lutherans.

[aimhigh]

Daughters of the American Revolution. Are they now the Lesbians of the American Revolution?

[null and void]

Yes. "We" RE-elected a "man" who managed to "celebrate" four Thanksgivings in the white house without once mentioning Him, and whose political party thrice denied Him and Israel a place on their platform.

It's only a matter of time.

[abishai]

What website is that?

[muawiyah]

The DAR is not necessarily about the here and now ~ that sort of thing is just fluff to attract the young ~ the under 65 set you know.

In reality the DAR is about a past, and about the American Revolution, and the creation of the nation itself. That's far removed from fluff, but it's more important than the propaganda, and the programs to attract the young.

I'd have to say NO CHANGE. Let me go further, the folks behind this change should be tarred, feathered, and ridden out of town on a rail.

BTW, many of the old patriotic groups used to have a rule that the honored ancestors they were descended from had to be married. When it came to Maryland a researcher demonstrated they'd had something like 70 publicly recorded marriages in the century prior to the Revolution. That didn't prove the folks weren't married, but it wasn't reported.

I think all of them have subsequently changed the marriage rule realizing it couldn't be proven, nor was it necessary ~ a patriot is a patriot no matter what the legal status of his parents.

At the same time the common religious tradition of almost all the patriots and soldiers was Christianity ~ that included the Oneida who served as Scouts with the New York militia, and with the regular continental army as well. We know that because they had Christian names ~

From the DAR website, you can search by name. Hans Jacob (Jacob Sr), the last name listed, was the first of our line in America.

DAR’s website has an ancestor search, to see if your ancestor has been filed on previously.

[abishai]

Wow, thanks. Although they have a lot of great stuff, ancestry.com is crazy expensive.

[muawiyah]

Gee whiz, I’m always seeing that guy on the same lists ~ and the other guys as well. Bet you come up with William Alexander with some frequency.

[muawiyah]

Without God and Jesus there’d been no Spaniards, Bretons and Swedes to discover and survey America so when the Pilgrims arrived they might have run into Greenland!

I subscribe to Ancestry, but I understand that the cost is way up there if you don’t use it that much. Have you tried a genealogy library, or a large city library for Ancestry.com. Most will have the Library edition of it.

Glad I never got around to sending in my application.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Who, Hans Jacob? He left Switzerland in 1749, down the Rhine to Cowes, England. got to Philly, had to work off the indenture for his passage. His first wife and son died on the ship coming over. He got remarried in 1750, ended up in the SW corner of Virginia, had 15 kids. He was a cabinet maker. At least 4 sons made rifles. Abraham made some flintlocks so damned pretty they hurt your eyes to look at.

I'll do some searches on W. Alexander.

[Einherjar]

I call upon the members of this organization to IMPEACH the officers at the National Level who allowed this to occur .

Don`t bail out of the DAR ..........fix it !
we need Patriots !

[yoe]

The Creator has been summarily thrown out of our schools and recently nearly thrown out of the Democrat Convention...so why not throw him out of the DAR another patriotic organization tied to the early American Patriots and their courageous stand for their new country. I wonder how many of these ladies voted for Obama, a man more in favor of Islam than he is of our Judeo-Christian origins. It is interesting how things work out.........

[dragonblustar]

The members of DAR should come out of the shadows and fight this instead of worrying whether or not they’ll be kicked out of the organization.

[fattigermaster]

How many Daughters of Antichrist Reform can there be?

[sport]

Judging by the results of the 2012 election, a hell of a lot of them.

[muawiyah]

See all the other names on those records? Sounds like your ancestors were able to do gunsmithing. They undoubtedly prized them highly.

Look and see if your guys end up on the same unit rosters as Manuel McConnell or Timothy Murphy ~ bet they do ~ and not just William Alexander but also somewhere under Lafayette, Burr, Jefferson ~ i suspect you've got some folks there a tad more special than you might have imagined ~ also be sure to check for John Murphy with Clark.

. . . He may have already launched the blow. . . .

Pastor John MacArthur preached a sermon in, I think, 2006, in which he expressed concern that America is in the same position as Samson. God had withdrawn His blessing on Samson, and Samson was so spiritually dead that he was not aware that God had done so.

People say "We must get rid of homosexuality because it will bring God's judgment onto America."

But Romans 1, after verse 18, notes that homosexuality is a sign that a society is under judgment. If you read that passage, you will see that it reads like the headlines of today's paper. And it does describe a society under the judgment of God.
