We meet quarterly in October, January, March and May, usually on a Saturday at 2:30pm. We also do hybrid meetings so that members, speakers and guests can attend from anywhere! We have fun through social activities and participate in service projects and outings to honor our Civil War ancestors throughout the year. We invite you to contact us to arrange a visit to our next meeting to get to know some wonderful ladies. We can help you with your application if you decide to join us! Our DUVCW members are female lineal descendants of Union Veterans of the Civil War who were honorably discharged or died in service to our country. The Daughters of Union Veterans of the Civil War, 1861 – 1865 is a not-for-profit organization formed to unite the daughters, granddaughters, great granddaughters, and all female direct lineal descendants of honorably discharged Union Veterans of the Civil War in promoting our principle mission which is: to perpetuate the memories of our ancestral fathers who served in the Civil War, to honor their loyalty and their unselfish sacrifices to preserve the Union, and to keep alive the history of those who participated in that heroic struggle for the maintenance of our free government.
