Real Daughters"All DAR members are descended from Revolutionary patriots. But imagine joining the DAR through the Revolutionary War service of your own father? This was a distinct privilege of a Real Daughter. Not to be confused with the "daughter of a Revolutionary soldier or patriot" (a term which of course encompasses thousands of women), a Real Daughter was distinguished because she was a DAR member as well as the actual daughter of a patriot. In the early years of the National Society, a DAR chapter that could name a Real Daughter among its members was extremely proud of this living link to the American Revolution."
