Research Your Family History

Are you just starting out on your journey to discover your family roots? Or are you one document away from solving a mystery of one of your ancestors? Wherever you are in your genealogical process, DAR is here to help. The DAR Genealogical Research System (GRS) online databases contain information on Revolutionary War Patriots and their descendants, as well as the vast array of genealogical resources from the DAR Library.

DAR members encompass a variety of backgrounds and interest, and all share a common bond of having an ancestor who helped contribute to securing the independence of the United States of America.

There’s just one thing missing: YOU!
