My mother, Genevieve McCabe, was a member and officer. She died last June. I want to get her the DAR grave marker. How do I reach somebody who has this information? My mother was a member of the Shatemuc Chapter in Rockland County in New York State. She was a regent twice. Her ancestor is Luther Hall. Lenora
You should contact the current Reagent from this chapter and they would put the marker on her headstone from the chapter.
Hello Lenora,
For information on DAR insignia markers for graves, see their website:

Dear Lenora,
I am so very sorry that I didn’t see this before now! If you have not marked your Mother’s grave, please contact me! This is something we love to do – and especially for one who was loved as much as your Mother was. Marthase@aol.com

My Great Grandmother was a member of the Rockland County New York Chapter along with her Daughter. Her name was Minnie McCloud-Frederick and Her daughter was Gladys Frederick-Wenzel. I need to get my Grandmothers Registration number to have my lineage verified as I am trying to become a member of the S.A.R. How or who can I contact to get this information?

You need to go to the DAR website and complete a records copy request. Fill it out as completely as possible for both your Great-Grandmother and your Grandmother.
Good Luck,
Melinda
Thanks, Minnie MCloud Frederick a member of the RCC passed away a few years ago.
My Great Grandmother was a daughter of the American Revolution. We have Eight Generations buried in Loda, Illinois Cemetary…Pine Ridge Please help me find a way to place this on my grandmothers grave and to also reserve this for myself and daughters. Thank You for your time
Do you know what Chapter, she belonged to? If not, you can order a record copy and then approach that chapter. Hopefully, they will help you. http://www.dar.org/library/record_copy.cfm?
Plus, the record copy can help you get into the DAR.
Good luck,
Melinda
I have yet to find a DAR symbol in my cemetery research. I guess there are none here in my area of Florida. Love the site.
