Linda K. Lewis commented on Sherry Hightower's group American Revolutionary War Ancestors"The best way to start with the DAR is to find a local chapter and visit a meeting. The registrar at the chapter you wish to join can help you understand what is needed."

Philadelphia Quaker Meeting or member records
Trying to find evidence that a branch of my Wilson family was Quaker. Family story is Levi Wilson was a frequent speaker at the Philadelpia Friends Meeting House. I do not know if it was the father Levi or the son Levi so time frame is 1860s - 1910s. Would like to glean as much about the entire family as possible from any records that might be available. What records are available? What is the best way to research this from Kansas City?

- One bad apple can sour many applicants which is why I refer ladies to DAR registrars I know will search for ancestors when need be and help find documentation. This is why I help others in any way I can. Last year I took no credit for any of the applicants I found and only co-sponsored them giving credit to the person who was number 1 in the country for new members.
