Who knew we've been this close all the time?<br /><br />I would love to be in the Daughters of the American Revolution. It's possible but I first have to prove the connection. I find it cool that history shows the hubs' and my ancestors were all at the Battle of Stone Mountain. I love history!Carra Copelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18372247844024839006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5525938104754000896.post-70367206415075679012012-09-15T16:42:11.686-05:002012-09-15T16:42:11.686-05:00I am so proud of you!

And guess what, my husband and I were married at East Dallas Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)and until then, I lived near McCommas Ave in East Dallas. What a wonderful history your have for your family. I wish I qualified for the Daughters of the Republic of Texas, but I don't. Guess I'll have to be happy I can get into DAR. But I really, really, really wanted to be in Daughters of the Repbulic of Texas. My direct line doesn't qualify, even though lateral lines do.

As you know, the DTR is responsible for the historic shrine. http://texasdruids.blogspot.com Lyn Hornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596495172490672271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5525938104754000896.post-20588673437751086752012-09-13T11:00:20.257-05:002012-09-13T11:00:20.257-05:00Lyn, You are a good friend and a great supporter! ...Lyn, You are a good friend and a great supporter! Thanks for always being there. Yes, I am proud of Amon. He was very civic-minded, but always flew just under the radar. You won't find him in any Dallas history books, except for the fact of his preaching the first sermon.<br /><br />Through genealogy research, I have found quite a few of our relatives' civic support has gone unmentioned like so many other families. People do what needs to be done to make our communities prosper. There's that village thing again.
