The Daughters of the American Revolution is a national society of women that was formed more than 130 years ago. It has more than 930,000 members. To become a member you must show proof that you have an ancestor that was connected to the revolutionary war. They have an extensive library and, from time to time, non-members can find DAR data online, although it is rare. For example, I found the following information related to Ohio County:
