2 FROM THE EDITOR S DESK The timeframe during which this issue covers is has many notable events that take place. Obviously, the most important is the commemoration of the Declaration of Independence. We also celebrated Memorial Day as well. Granted, this is typically a slow time of year as far as events go, and I suppose that is due to vacations and other things during the Spring and Summer months. That being said, we had several SAR related events take place. We have had great submissions that provide ample coverage of these commemorations. Keep them coming, we rely on you, our members, to drive the content of this publication. My thanks to you. Recently, being a registrar, I gave a presentation to my chapter (Colonel George Waller) on genealogy. The title was - Genealogy, what every SAR member should know. I expected this to be quite boring to the general membership. I was pleasantly surprised when it became apparent that the members not only were learning something from it, but that they actually were enjoying it. Andy, Callie, Nolen, and Lori Doss I don t know about you, but of late, I find members getting frustrated or even discouraged over the increasingly difficult requirements for proving bloodlines. Granted, I understand what the SAR goals are. And yes, I also find myself banging my head sometimes over what may seem to be petty requirements regarding documenting things. I decided to take the opportunity to stress how these stricter standards are creating bloodline proofs that will stand up to scrutiny when used by future generations. How these new standards, are helping to fix poor and sketchy documentation that may have been used in the past. Frankly, I looked back at some of the old applications that are online at Ancestry.com, and I can see that many of those members would never have been members today by using some of the source material listed. I think that as SAR members, it is important that each of you understand what the application process entails. I encourage each of you to ask your registrar about it. If you are the registrar, then please, lead a discussion with your fellow members about what you do and why things are the way they are. Sure, we will always have to bang heads with the State Registrar over things (right, Jack?), but I have learned that when necessary, the State Registrar will go up to bat for you when it comes down to it. We are all a team here, and we are all working towards the same goal. All my best, Andy S. Doss FOR REGISTRARS - NOTES FROM JACK SWEENEY Mike Taimi reporting from Congress, stated that effective with the end of the current NSSAR Congress, 24 Jul 2014, the application fee cost of regular Supplemental applications is increased from the current $40 to $60 and the application fee cost for Supplemental applications submitted as additional members of a family plan is increased from $20 to $30 each. For example, in a family plan supplemental application package the lead member s application fee cost is now $60 and each additional family member s application fee is now $30. 2

4 OLD DONATION PATRIOTS REMEMBERED - DR. J. THOMAS WHETSTONE On the gloriously sunny day of Saturday, May 17, 2014, Norfolk SAR and Lynnhaven Parish NSDAR dedicated a new grave ledger in the Old Donation Episcopal Church Cemetery for Colonel Edward Hack Moseley ( ), veteran of the Colonial Wars and the American Revolution. Rector Robert Randall and Old Donation Church were most gracious hosts, providing a worship service before the dedications and most delicious food and warm company at a reception for all attending. In addition, Norfolk and Lynnhaven Parish joined with Virginia Society Order of Founders and Patriots of America, Virginia Society of Colonial Wars, Suffolk Chapter Colonial Dames of the XVII Century, Fort Norfolk Chapter US Daughters of 1812, Society of the War of 1812 in the Commonwealth of Virginia, and Cavalier Society Children of the American Revolution in dedicating a bronze plaque memorializing thirteen founders, patriots, and veterans buried in the historic church cemetery or the surrounding area. The men honored are church founder Cpt. Adam Thorowgood ( ); six Colonial War veterans; three Revolutionary War veterans: Col. Edward Hack Moseley ( ); Col. Adam Thoroughgood (1755s-1780s), and Cpt. Thomas Walke IV ( ); and three veterans of the War of Father Randall initiated the day s celebration with a worshipful Colonial Morning Prayer service using the Anglican Book of Common Prayer, The church choir sang and provided leadership for a robust singing of The Star Spangled Banner after the combined color guard had presented and posted the colors. Pete Owens and the church s Historic Traditions Committee, in Colonial attire, served as guides and ushers, and Church Historian Bob Perrine presented a biography of Colonial Moseley and an overview of the history of the church (founded in 1637). Ann Callis, a lineal descendant of church founder Captain Adam Thorowgood ( ), also spoke, and in a most engaging manner. Norfolk SAR Chaplain Robert Hitchings closed the dedication ceremonies with a benediction after participants laid their organizations wreaths. - continued on page 5 4

6 NEWS FROM FAIRFAX RESOLVES CHAPTER - BY BILL PRICE Robert R. Newlen, the Library of Congress Assistant Law Librarian for Legislative and External Relations, was awarded the Silver Good Citizenship Medal on May 17, 2014 during the annual Chapter Spring Banquet. The presentation was made by Chapter President William W. Bill Price in recognition of Mr. Newlen s 35+ year career in the field of library science and his current efforts to coordinate the November 2014 exhibit Magna Carta: Muse and Mentor; 800 Years of a Great Tradition. The Chapter also presented Newlen with a $600 donation to support the planned exhibit. Next year (2015) is the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta, sealed by King John at Runnymede in June It is very exciting to be associated with this exhibit celebrating Magna Carta and the origins of the rule of the law as well as the appreciation for and preservation of original historical documents said Newlen. I see the same enthusiasm for these activities in the Fairfax Resolves and the SAR. I am honored to have received this award. Magna Carta provides the first exemplifications of basic human rights and liberties that stand at the heart of English and American Law. Magna Carta: Muse and Mentor opens at the Library of Congress on November 6, 2014, and will include L-R :Mr. Robert Newlen and Chapter President William "Bill"Price treasures that the Library has preserved in its own collections.

7 DAN RIVER CHAPTER GOOD CITIZEN - BY BERNIE BAKER Edward Troy Lewis of Danville received the Bronze Good Citizenship Medal from the Dan River Chapter of the Sons of the American Revolution. Lewis was named the Child ID Program coordinator in 1996 for the 38th Masonic District. He stepped down in During his ten sure, nearly 12,000 children were fingerprinted with the help of his leadership and area Masons. Lewis started out with a few ink pads and cards the first year. The program s support grew as fingerprinting child was a part of Wal-Mart s Back to School Week and the local National Night Out Activities. Lewis said the program would not have been successful without the support of his fellow Masons. He added it did matter if only 7 children were fingerprinted or nearly 900, parents, it was important for families to have this type of record. Lewis was honored for valuable providing a community service.
