Whether you want to apply to a lineage society (such as the General Society of Colonial Wars, the Colonial Dames of America, Order of Founders and Patriots of America, etc.) or simply want to prove your descent from a colonial war veteran, this lecture will provide you with key strategies, resources, and alternative records for verifying—and documenting—your colonial connection.
