Lesser
Known & Interesting Lineal Organizations
There are a multitude of heredity societies ranging
from the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company of Massachusetts
founded in 1637 to the National Society Sons and Daughters of
Antebellum Planters founded in 1997, and in between we find such
interesting groups as the Associated Daughters of Early American Witches
and the Descendants of Illegitimate Sons and Daughters of the Kings of
England.
These societies
can be extremely useful for someone who is doing family research.
Many of the larger societies publish lineage books which list family
lines for several generations. We will explore the benefits and
necessary qualifications of a variety of hereditary societies.
