Even More Reason to be a Patriot Records Project Volunteer!

To learn more about the Patriot Records Project Committee visit our webpage on the Members’ Website. If you have not visited recently, please read more on the Patriots Shine on the GRS page. There are numerous materials on this page that can be used to promote the committee, as well as information about the resulting database of Patriot names. The database, which is available in the GRS (dar.org/grs), is accessible, free of charge, by the public as well as by members. The database is a great way to encourage the public to find information about our Revolutionary War Patriots and for them to see the valuable work provided by the Daughters of the American Revolution. Researchers often find one of their Patriots and inquire about membership!

Guidance for using the index is provided on the Patriots Shine on the GRS page. This image shows the index of entries in the database when the name Patrick Henry is entered.

Researchers can click on any of the four entries to see the actual image where the name Patrick Henry appears. If copies of the images are desired they can be ordered through the DAR Library Search Services.

Members are encouraged to RISE and SHINE and participate in the Patriot Records Project Committee. Get started now to be a part of our Special Promotion. A link to Volunteer Now is on our webpage or you can contact this committee at [email protected]; provide us with your name and National Number. We look forward to welcoming you to our team of volunteers.
