“Lineage Societies" Choices, Applications and Requirements

Choosing to join a lineage society is one way to honor your ancestor. And the variety of societies has increased in recent years to include military, fraternal, religious, heritage, hereditary, ethnic, and patriotic foci, to name just a few. But which one should you join? Are the applications the same for each? What are the requirements? What types of records are they looking for? All of these questions will be answered, and samples of several society applications will be examined in the presentation by Emily Coffman Richardson.
