Welcome to the Irondequoit Chapter
NSDAR The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR) is a non-profit, non-political, volunteer women’s service organization comprising 3,000 chapters and over 185,000 members.
The Irondequoit Chapter, NSDAR, was founded in Rochester, New York, on February 15, 1894, under the leadership of Carolyn Crafts Little. There were 16 founding members, one being Louisa Rochester Pitkin. She was the daughter of Revolutionary War patriot, Nathaniel Rochester, founder of our city. The membership grew quickly and among them were eight women whose fathers had served in the American Revolution. One of Rochester's most notable citizens and our most famous member, Susan B. Anthony, was an active member of our chapter. |

Today's DAR is a thriving women's service organization that focuses on work in local communities to promote historic preservation, education, and patriotism. |
