Attention: Members of the National Society Daughters of Colonial Wars (NSDCW) and potential members of same. The latest national newsletter contains an announcement that the President's Project will be the wall covering restoration and the preservation of the gallery section of the 120-year-old structure newly renamed the National Pilgrim Memorial Meetinghouse. The General Society of Mayflower Descendants (GSMD, aka The Mayflower Society) bought it recently, as it is on the site of the actual meetinghouse built by the Mayflower passengers who arrived there in 1620. Qualifications include being a female and having an ancestor somewhere in the 13 Colonies between Jamestown (VA, 1607) and the Battle of Lexington (MA) in 1775 - AND who served in the military or held a civic office during one of the many battles that went on. (There are more of them than you'd think.) If you are reading this and are a female, the chances are excellent that you qualify.
