Those eligible for active membership are boys and girls from birth to the Annual General CofC Convention (July) after their 18th birthday who are blood descendants, lineal or collateral, of men and women who served honorably in the Confederate Army, Navy, or Civil Service, or gave material aid to the Cause or those who are lineal or collateral descendants of members of the United Daughters of the Confederacy whose papers are acceptable by the present requirements for membership. Adopted children are not eligible for membership by virtue of the adoptive parents’ bloodline, but solely by virtue of the natural or biological parents.

How do I join UDC. I have many relatives maternal and paternal grandfathers who served in the civil war. Is there a chapter in or around Huntsville, AL or Lincoln County, TN?
