Benjamin Franklin Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution

Benjamin Franklin Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution Welcome to the Benjamin Franklin Chapter of the Ohio Society of the Sons of the American Revolution.

The Benjamin Franklin Chapter is part of the Ohio Society SAR and National Society SAR, and serves the City of Columbus and Central Ohio (including Franklin, Delaware, Union, Madison and Licking Counties). The SAR is a lineage society; each member has documented a direct bloodline to an ancestor who supported the cause of American Independence during the years 1774-1783. The membership page explai

ns the process of becoming a member. The Benjamin Franklin Chapter is named for the founding father who rose from humble roots to become a printer, scientist, statesman, diplomat, political theorist, abolitionist, philanthropist, guiding influence in the creation of the Declaration of Independence, and signer of the Constitution. Chartered October 10, 1896, our chapter is enjoying its 126th year of honoring our Patriot ancestors and the free nation that we enjoy.
