Administrative History
Women in the late 19th century were often excluded from patriotic organizations, so a group of women in the nation's capital founded the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) on October 11, 1890. Since its founding, the DAR has admitted more than 950,000 members. The DAR, Joseph Hart chapter, Columbus, Indiana was organized on June 9, 1921.
