Virtual Genealogy: How DAR Can Help Search for Your Revolutionary War Patriot

Description

Harford County Public Library presents Virtual Genealogy: How DAR Can Help Search for Your Revolutionary War Patriot, a virtual presentation, on July 14 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Bobbi Carleton, Maryland’s State Chair for Lineage Research for the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), will share helpful tips for using the DAR Genealogical Research System (GRS). The GRS is a free collection of databases that provides access to the extensive materials amassed by the DAR since its founding in 1890, supporting both general genealogical research and the DAR membership process. Carleton will also highlight additional resources, including Ancestry, FamilySearch, Maryland land records and the Maryland State Archives, and demonstrate how these tools can work together to help identify and document patriot ancestors.
