DAR RESEARCH
Class Web Page

Revised 28 April 2007

HOME PAGE

The Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) Research class is given at
the Los Angeles Regional Family History Center (LARFHC) and elsewhere
by instructor Jon Schweitzer.
This is a Web page companion to the class.

Consult my "DAR Research" Red 3-Ring Notebook for additional useful information located to the right of the entrance of the film room at the LARFHC. A copy of this class handout and copies of all the overhead transparencies shown in this class are in this Notebook.

Additional research information may be found in my other Red 3-Ring Self-Help Notebooks such as Military Research - U.S., Revolutionary War Veteran Research and National Archives Research by Mail.

Most of the Notebooks are located in the LARFHC to the right of the entrance of the Microfilm Room in alphabetical order.

See a complete list of my 75 Red 3 Ring Self-Help Notebooks at http://www.larfhc.org/notebooks.htm
