Sons of American Revolution Chapter starting in Berkeley County

• Thursday, April 30, 2015

The call is out for descendants of American Revolutionary War patriots in Berkeley County.

 With all of its history and ancestral ties, Berkeley County is on the way to establishing a local chapter of SAR.The SAR is a “lineage” society. This means that each member has traced their family tree back to a point of having an ancestor who supported the cause of American Independence during the years 1774 to 1783. If you already know you have such an ancestor, or even if you’re not sure, then please contact the group. Getting involved in your genealogy usually produces interesting family stories and an improved appreciation for the problems and opportunities that your ancestors had to deal with.
