New members are always welcome. Prospective members must submit their application with sufficient lineage evidence as to satisfy the state and national registrar. We encourage you to pursue this process and become our fellow compatriot. For more information, check out the National SAR website and use their Apply for Membership tab to get started.

Our Texas Society, Sons of the American Revolution, also has much information available at their Texas SAR website. Use their “About Texas SAR” tab to find several links to Officers, Committees, Interested in Joining, History, Fees and Constitution. Use their “Joining Info” tab for more information.

Many SAR Compatriots and Daughters of the American Revolution have already undergone this application process. Their lineage to their patriot ancestors has been recorded in the SAR National Database Patriot Search and DAR Ancestor & Descendants Search DAR Patriot Search. Many times, a prospective member can save time and effort by seeking and using a compatriot’s Record Copy from SAR or DAR for lineage and proof of patriot service. Otherwise, proof of your patriot’s service is required.
