==== Society of The Colonial Dames ==== | |||
The [http://www.nscda.org National Society of The Colonial Dames of America] (NSCDA) was founded in 1891. Membership in the society requires direct descent from an ancestor who resided in an American colony prior to 1750 which ancestor or some one of his descendants being a lineal ascendant of the applicant shall have rendered efficient service to his country during the Colonial period up to July 5, 1776. The society consists of 44 state societies and the District of Columbia. | |||
'''Index of Ancestors''' | |||
The society's website has a [http://www.ancestorbibliography.org ancestor index] which gives the name of the ancestor and links to materials written on that person. The index may not be complete. | |||
'''Member Registries''' | |||
The state societies often published lists of their members which usually contain the members names and a lineage showing their connection to a colonial ancestor. A list of ancestors and a description of their service is also usually included. | |||
