How to Become a Member

Membership is by written invitation after an affirmative vote of the State Society. Applicants must be endorsed by two members of the State Society, both of whom are in good standing.  The applicant must present her typed or computer-generated lineage papers to the inviting State Society or State Registrar for examination.

Lineage papers approved by the Registrar, signed by the Regent and Registrar, are forwarded by the State Society to the home address of the National Registrar for verification. A State Society check to cover the examination fee listed in Article VI, Section 1, and the annual national dues listed in Article VI, Section 2 of the National Bylaws must accompany the lineage papers.

Lineage of transfers from the National Society Children of the American Colonists (NSCAC) must be proved in the same manner as those of applicants for membership.  The examination fee for NSCAC transfers is listed in Article V, Section 1 of the National Bylaws.
