The Daughters of the American Revolution Library in Washington, D.C. offers far more than resources for Revolutionary War descendants. As one of the nation’s premier genealogical research libraries, it provides a wealth of materials for anyone exploring their family history.

This presentation will introduce the wide range of resources available both at the library itself and through its free online collections. Whether you conduct research on-site or from home, you’ll discover how these tools can support and enhance your work—and perhaps even uncover connections to your own family story.
