Rebecca Smythe Eisenman THIRD VICE PRESIDENT GENERAL The office of the Third Vice President General is focused on stewardship of our beautiful headquarters building. Some of the anniversaries that relate to our beautiful home at 1300 New Hampshire Avenue NW include the following: In 1885, the first residents moved into their wonderful new home. At that time, the DuPont Circle area was young and the three-story building with its tower, bay window, and mansard roof made a striking appearance. The Entrance Hall, Reception Room, Sitting Room, Music Room, Kitchen, Museum Room, President General’s office, Textile Room as well as all Bedrooms and Powder Rooms are currently housed in this portion of the building. The Vault, Genealogist’s Office, Mailroom, Furnace, Microfiche and Records and Family Name File Room are in the garden level.

38 In 1901, a new owner decided to expand with a two-story addition that now houses the Drawing Room, Dining Room, Flag Room and Ballroom as well as the Office and Library in the Garden level. It is difficult to imagine the Headquarters without these places to mount the extensive collection of Coats of Arms, Flag displays of each State Society, or accommodating busy researchers pouring through the volumes of genealogical material. During Mrs. Gupton’s administration, the “Fund for the National Headquarters” was created and received its first donation $200. These ladies made the 1957 building selection and purchase possible. In 1958 at the Thirty-Fourth Conference, Mrs. Burkett dedicated the building with the following quote that still speaks so powerfully today: “We are gathered here today to dedicate this - the first National Headquarters of the National Society Colonial Dames XVII Century, and we welcome you. It will not only provide a meeting place, a library, and a repository for valuable records and papers, it is a monument to the memory of our esteemed forefathers, the Founders of our wonderful country, for their wise vision and noble objectives - which is our richest heritage. We are grateful to the members whose efforts and contributions have made this Dedication today possible. We pay tribute to the leaders of our Society, past and present, whose inspiration, and labors of love and sacrifice have built the foundation of our beloved Society. We honor them today. To us they have handed the Torch for future generations. May we merit this responsibility, and prove worthy of our trust.” As we carry that Torch, it is our task to continue to preserve and improve the Headquarters building which has meant so much to so many for such a long

time. As can be expected with any building of a certain vintage, the Headquarters needs our continual and vigilant attention. Let’s prove worthy of that trust. Please consider donations to the Headquarters Maintenance and Endowment Funds as these funds provide for the care so desperately needed to keep this home attractive and functional. If you have any questions about Headquarters, please feel free to contact this officer or our capable Headquarters Supervisor. Try to plan a visit to see our Headquarters, the Museum collections, and do research in the library. As Dames, we are very fortunate to have such a lovely home.

REGISTRAR GENERAL Greetings from your Registrar General. This officer is looking forward to working with you, to receiving your applications and supplementals and to increasing our membership. Please review the Guide to Preparing Applications prior to submitting applications. If you will carefully follow these instructions, we should be able to approve applications and supplementals quickly. Previously approved applications numbered higher than 22,000 will be accepted unless these applications rely solely upon proof from the unacceptable sources that are listed in the Registrar’s Guide to Preparing Applications found on the National website: When you are related to a member of the Society, you may copy the members’ lineage after your generations which connect you to your relative. Please remember: proofs for your all of your generations must

The National Number of your relative, the name of your common ancestor and the sources of proof for your relative’s generations must be listed on your application form to show the correct lineage. You will not need to provide copies of the proof for your relative’s generations. We will not require that proof of service be sent if that proof was sent with a previously approved application. PROOF REQUIRED TO SHOW LINEAGE: We are a lineage society. As a result, proof of lineage is required. The child to parent link must be proven using primary sources such as birth, death and marriage records, census records from 1850, Bible records, cemetery records, wills, or deeds, if such sources exist. If a primary record for the child to parent link cannot be found, we ask that you provide us with evidence that you have performed a reasonably exhaustive search for proof of the links. To do that, we ask that you provide us with a list of the sources that you have consulted. Then, please let us know why you think that this links exist. IS there, by chance, a contemporary record that provides these links? In the absence of a primary source of proof, acceptance of these links will be made on a case-bycase basis. THE 1850, 1860 AND 1870 CENSUS RECORDS WILL BE ACCEPTED: If a child appears in the 1850, 1860 or 1870 census, has a last name that is the same as the head of household, and is an age to be child of the head of household, then that relationship will be accepted. ABSTRACTS OF WILLS WILL BE ACCEPTED HOWEVER ABSTRACTS OF WILLS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO PROVE LAND OWENERSHIP BY A WOMAN: We will accept abstracts of wills unless the abstract of the will is being used for proof that a woman is a

landowner. An abstracted will may say a wife is to receive land when the full text indicates that she is only receiving dower rights as required by law (dower is use of the property not ownership). ACCEPTABLE SOURCES OF PROOF: Please refer to the Registrar’s Guide to Preparing Applications for acceptable and unacceptable sources of proof. ADOPTIONS: Adoptions are not a bar to membership PROVIDED applicants make full disclosure and document their biological parentage.

HISTORIAN GENERAL It is an honor to serve our Society as your Historian National. If you are a new State/Chapter Historian please take a moment to review the National Bylaws and Standing Rules Revised and Amended 2014 and Handbook 2017 eleventh Edition as well as your State and Chapter Bylaws for information about your position, especially where these documents relate to your duties as Historian. You can find copies of our National Bylaws and Handbook on our national website. Our Society holds a wonderful Historical Document Collection which contains a collection of original papers and signatures. Donations of original documents and books from the Colonial Period are always welcome as are signatures of Colonial Governors or the first Governor of your state. Please do not send items until they have been approved. Please use the State Historian annual report form to submit a program or manuscript for further consideration. Financial contributions to the Historic Documents Fund are also appreciated and encouraged and these contributions should be sent through your Chapter and State Treasurer using the annual donations or special gift form. Historical programs should be part of each meeting. At some meetings, members provide the program. Others prefer outside speakers. Some employ a combination of both. Whichever method you prefer this provides an opportunity to preserve our history. You

47 may not know this but we have over 150 programs or manuscripts are available for the state and chapter use on our national website. There are many subjects available depending on the range of interest of your members. Some of the topics are early colonial life, cooking, court systems, education, ethnic groups, gardens, ghosts, and witchcraft, heraldry, colonial holidays, landmarks, medicine, music, needlework and crafts, famous men and women, famous trails and more. To review the programs, simply log on to the National website and select the members tab at the top and from the dropdown menu select “Programs” Additions to our program and manuscript library are always welcome and highly encouraged. Please email your submissions to the Historian General for further consideration. Chapters or states may wish to encourage students in grades 6 through 12 to participate in the National History Day contest. More information on this contes can be found at www.nationalhistoryday.org. Additionally, sponsoring your own essay contest with a chosen theme for the essay and presenting awards for specific grade levels is a great way to establish a connection with your community and aid in the education of youth in our country. It is extremely important to keep a history of our chapter. Some chapters prefer a traditional hard scrapbook. However, with the advent of digital photography, saving photos and newspaper articles in the flash drive is now the preferred method. It is portable and can keep the mementos of your chapter for long periods of time. Photographs fade and newspaper yellows but items on a flash drive do not have a shelf life. It is also easier to pass down to new Historians and does not

take up much room. I would like to request that when the President General visits your State Society, please send photos, newspaper articles and other mementos of her visit to the Historian General to be included in her scrapbook. This is presented to her at the end of her administration and is a memento of her administration. A wonderful booklet available on the “Commemorate Historical Patriotic Days 2016.” It contains a brief ritual of remembrance to use at your meetings on National Patriotic Days. Chapter Historians, please remember to submit your annual report form to your State Historian by January 15. State Historians, please remember to submit your report form to the Historian General by February 15. You may email your reports or send them via USPS. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I look forward to working with you. Cheryl “Cher” Miller Sesma LIBRARIAN GENERAL It is a pleasure to work and cooperate with each member for the improvement of our National Library and our Society.

NATIONAL OFFICERS BY APPOINTMENT

ASSISTANT REGISTRAR This Officer is looking forward to working with the Registrar General Courtenay Stanley, and also with our Society members. The Assistant Registrar also oversees the Genie Sessions during the time the Genies are present and working supplemental applications at National Headquarters. Genie Sessions are held in January, June and August. Kimberley Smith Calaway ASSISTANT LIBRARIAN After a year being unable to work in the Library, Marsha Mason, Library Chairman, and I have been able to start work again. We have been met with

many new books for the collection and the new computer access of the inventory by our members. This is all excellent and we look forward to more improvements. Having the inventory accessible to our members means that anyone who would like to donate a book can check first to see if we already have it. Any books that come in that we already have a copy of are put on the sale cart at a reduced price because we do not have room for duplicates. If you have been in the library, you know how small the space is and why we have this policy. There are gaps in our inventory however, and we welcome donations of books concerning birth, marriage and death (vital statistics) records from towns and counties of the original thirteen colonies/states. In some states such as Pennsylvania those records are found in churches, and they are also welcome. The vital records from later states can also be helpful and we welcome those as well. We do not need family histories, as interesting as they may be. Our aim is to build the inventory in the most helpful way for our “genies” as well as those who visit and do research. If you want to donate a book please contact our Librarian General, Karen Landers, or me. We will be compiling a list of needed titles later this year to help you in your choice. Thank you all who have contributed so many useful and helpful books. Janice Ilene Welch

Certificate Engrossing The committee prints certificates for New Membership, Approved Ancestor Supplemental or for 25- and 50-Year Membership.

Because of limited space, try to include no more than 4 names on the membership line. These may be the member’s given name, middle, maiden and married name. New Membership certificates are printed and mailed out monthly to new members. Ancestor Supplemental: A member can request a certificate for an approved supplemental ancestor. This form is found on the National website and is mailed to Headquarters. Please make sure all information is correct.

Colonial Heritage, Research and Records The Committee for Colonial Heritage, Research and Records speaks to the heart of our beloved Society as we strive, as individuals and collectively, to preserve our heritage. We spend hours in research leading to find records and record-keeping. This, Dear Members, is who we are! While a State Chairman for this Committee, I found that chapter oftentimes would like to have solid ideas of what they can do to forward this important work. Some chapters are small and unable to undertake a big project. Others are large and welcome a challenge. I encourage you to celebrate Colonial Heritage Day, Week or Month. Here are a few ideas: Your chapter might be interested in placing their members’ family research in a local library under the library’s Family Files. This could, of course, be edited to exclude living generations. (Check first with your library to make certain they collect family files.) This can be very helpful to future researchers! 1. Perhaps a member’s ancestor was instrumental in settling the community. If so plan a Heritage Hour at your historical society, library or community center. 2. Host a Genealogy Day at a local library for prospective members. 3. You might choose to set a goal of recording tombstones in an abandoned or old cemetery and five that information to a local library. (Not all tombstones have been recorded. I can testify to that!) 4. Consider obtaining permission from a church to copy their old records and place the copy in a

Directory & Directives 2021-2023

134479_Goldenrod.indd 51

6/23/21 8:50 AM

52 library or house it with a genealogical or historical society. You would be surprised home many churches to not have an extra copy at an offsite location. Old Bible records can likewise be copied. 5. Colonial Heritage Month could be celebrated by setting up a display at your library historical society or city hall. If your community has a long history, you could create a poster or timeline of its development. 6. Do you live near a historic fort, trail or roadway? If so, give a program about it. Talk it up at meetings of your other organizations. You might also present this to a school class or community group. You live in the Southwest? Perhaps your ancestors traveled by one of those old trails or roads. 7. Host a “Grandmother’s Heirloom” Day. Members and prospective member can bring an item to a meeting and tell its family significance. Do you have a very old letter, and item made by an ancestor, or a piece of jewelry? Perhaps a few members can wear a costume from the ear of their ancestor. REMEMBER: DO NOT send research material to this committee or headquarters. Chapters wishing for more program ideas are encouraged to look online at the programs available through our headquarters. The order form is in the Summer Packet. Keep a copy or list of all records and material donated to local libraries, historical societies or genealogical societies. Be sure to save a copy of publicity for your events. If your chapter has a program that is well received, please include information

about it on the back of the report form. I’d love to know if your chapter presents a program on an old fort, trail or roadway! I look forward to hearing from you and learning what exciting ideas you may have! Marilynn Pratt Holmquist

Order of placement of Insignia on the Official Ribbon is listed in the National Handbook, which is available

on the Members Only website for your convenience. Please contact me with any insignia questions you may have. Brenda Noble Cheuvront

Junior Membership A goal for every chapter should be to encourage members to recruit and retain their young family members and friends between the ages of eighteen (18) and thirty-six (36) to join, and assist with its projects. Juniors are essential for the growth and continuation of the Society. Chapters need to support their Junior Members, making it possible for them to actively participate in events and to learn more about Colonial Dames XVII Century at every level. A Junior Membership application fee is one-half of the regular application fee. Junior membership dues are one-half of regular dues, until, but not including, the year that she turns thirty-six prior to January one. Thus, in the year when her thirty-sixth birthday will occur prior to January one, she is no longer eligible for the reduced rate. All Junior Members are eligible to purchase and wear a Colonial Dames XVII Century Junior Member pin. To recognize the work of outstanding young Dames, the Committee sponsors an Outstanding Junior Member Contest annually. The contest is designed to reward outstanding achievements in many fields. Chapters should recognize their hardworking Juniors as their “Chapter Outstanding Junior Member,” nominating them for “State Outstanding Junior Member.” Each State Society is encouraged to name a winner of their State’s Contest and present that young lady with an award at their State Conference. The State winner will then be entered in the National competition. From among the State winners, one National winner shall be selected to receive an award at the National Conference. Make this recognition, even

Long Range Planning As established in Article VIII, Section 14 of the National Bylaws, the duties of the Long-Range Planning

Committee are two- fold. First, the Committee is to “determine the important priorities of the Society over a period of ten (10) to twenty (20) years.” Second, the Committee is to “research these priorities and determine if they are feasible for the Society.” Throughout this administration, this Committee will continue to look at the overall needs of our Headquarters Building while prioritizing issues including ongoing necessary repairs, climate control and space demands in the Library and Office. Our beautiful Headquarters Building was constructed in 1884. When dealing with a property of this age, repairs are constant. The four-story Building is nearly 7000 square feet in size and consists of 23 rooms which house our Office, Library, Museum collection, furnishings and many artifacts. Over the years, the building has begun to show wear, and renovation is becoming essential in certain areas. The library collection has continued to grow, again through the generous donations of books from members and chapters. During the past administration, additional shelving was installed in the rear of the library to house our growing collection. But this shelving is only a temporary measure. A plan to redesign and maximize space for the library is needed. The Library and Museum collections are instrumental to the Society’s maintaining its tax-exempt status. The Office square footage on the Garden Level is very limited. The digitizing of files and records is helpful to maintaining more available storage space in the vault. Future needs include redesigning the Garden Level to maximize an efficient working environment for our staff. As Chairman of this Committee, I welcome your thoughts and ideas. As

58 we all work together to promote the National Society Colonial Dames XVII Century, our Society will continue to grow and flourish for generations to come. Nancy Smith Ackerman Marking And Preservation of Historic Sites Our revered Society is based on history and heritage. One important and vital way to keep history alive and relevant is to mark and preserve historic sites for the purposes of education and enjoyment for today's generation and all future generations. Historic Preservation is one of President General's Dorothy Thompson National Projects. As Colonial Dames we have the opportunity and responsibility to facilitate sharing our nation’s history through site marking, preserving properties and fostering education of our designated properties. Let's promote and encourage these objectives by visiting marked sights, investigating new sites and volunteering at established sites. SELECTING A SITE: A site must be of historic significance to the community in which it is located. The site need not necessarily be of the colonial era, just be a site of historical significance. Approval cannot be given to a site which honors only an individual. A person's name may appear on the marker if it describes the site or a historical event. Photographs of the site or structure will enhance the application and be appreciated. 1. After the site has been selected, written permission to mark the site must be secured from the owner, manager, or the municipality responsible for the site. 2. The Requesting Chapter shall determine the location and type of marker most suitable for the site. The requestor shall complete a “Request to Mark” application form and compile a package of all necessary supporting documentation prior to acquiring the

Chapter President’s Endorsement signature. The endorsed form with site permission letter and required supporting documents shall be provide to the State Marking Chairman. It is advisable for the Chapter to keep a copy of all documents for their records. 3. The State Marking Chairman reviews the 'Request to Mark' application package to verify all necessary information is present and the application form contains a description of the site and its historical significance, a description of the site, its historical significance, a description of the marker including the wording for the marker, and that a site marking permission letter is attached. The State Marking Chairman shall sign the Request to Mark Form and submit the application package (“Request to Mark” form, Permission to Mark Letter, photographs, and support documentation) to the National Marking Chairman. 4. The National Marking Chairman, shall assign each ‘Request to Mark’ application a unique identification number. Each package shall be reviewed to ensure the site an requested marker are compliant with National Guidelines. The National Marking Chairman will work with the Requesting Chapter/State to resolve any issues or concerns prior to recommending approval to the President General. (Allow 30-45 days for official review and approval.) Upon approval by the President General, the National Marking Chairman shall notify the Requesting Chapter/State, at which time ordering of the marker may proceed. 5. After receiving email confirmation of approval, the marker may be ordered from Classic Bronze Resources LLC

59 www.classicbronzeresources.com (513) 600-9048 or any other marker manufacturer. Should another marker company be used, the emblem must be reproduced correctly. The Lady's bonnet must appear in exactly the correct position. 6. After the marker company confirms the order and advises the delivery date, the dedication ceremony may be planned. 7. After the marking ceremony has occurred, The Requesting Chapter should submit an article with photos to The Review. NATIONAL MARKER DIRECTIVES: The National Society's emblem must be placed on the top center or top left of the marker. NOTHING may be placed above the emblem. The marker must include the name of the State Society or Chapter and the words "Colonial Dames XVII Century". The insignia or emblem of another society is not permitted on a CDXVIIC marker. For joint markings, the emblems of other societies may not be used and the names of the other National Societies shall be listed on the marker in the order of the organization of the National Societies. MATERIAL APPROVED FOR MARKERS: Markers may be made of bronze, wood, aluminum, granite, marble, or other suitable materials. All lettering must be raised or engraved and lettering must be a suitable size for reading from a short distance. Markers may be installed indoors or outdoors. PRESERVATION: Describe the preservation efforts made to preserve a site and provide the exact location of the site. Report the financial support and time spent on the project including any work on grounds or existing marker. Photographs are encouraged. REPORTING: Please use Form II "Annual Report" for reporting the Marking Event. The Chapter Marking Chairman's Report must be submitted to the State Marking

Chairman by January 15th. The State Marking Chairman's Report must be submitted to the National Marking Chairman by February 15th. Attachments may be included when necessary. I look forward to working with all Chapter and State Marking Chairmen. Please contact this Chairman if you require any additional information or assistance. Together we'll be integral in preserving and marking our Nation’s history. Suzanne Bell Fichter

Membership As Membership chairman for the Thompson administration, I want to encourage chapters to continue to recruit new members, reach out to our local communities advertising the good deeds of our Society and keep meetings/programs interesting and fun. Ask all new prospective members about daughters or sisters who could join as applying for more than one person in a family is a very easy and quick way to increase membership. Invite friends from other organizations you have met and have genealogy workshops. Be open to prospective members even if they are not sure of their lineage as there are many twigs in our genealogy tree to follow. Challenge yourself to think outside the box and be on the leading edge with new ideas! After membership chairmen have been appointed in chapters and state, please forward your names and emails to me. This committee would like to recognize those membership chairmen for the creativity and hard work at the annual conference so please send in your Membership Form by the due dates; 15 January chapter chairmen to State Chairman and 15 February to the National Chairman with that information. Please feel free to contact me at any time with any questions or problems with applications as every prospective member is important. Let’s make this year better than ever for our Society. The Membership committee challenges

60 chapters to try to have multiple new member applications from the same family (i.e. daughter, sister, aunts etc.) and to have a 10% membership increase this year. We will be acknowledging states who have increased membership by 10% and states who reach the newest members in the same family in relation to their state size. Looking forward to a productive year and administration Jessica Whetsel Moralez

Museum The National Chairman of the Museum has the responsibility of keeping inventory of all artifacts which have been donated to the Headquarters Museum and Textile Room. She records a full description of the item, the date received, the name of the donor and the Chapter through which the donation has been made. This chairman is responsible for descripting the artifacts and display of the Museum artifacts in a binder. Our Museum Room has been updated with new paint and reorganization of artifacts. Suitable glass front cabinets are used to display and preserve the artifacts and treasures presented to the National Society, depicting the colonial heritage of our Nation. State Societies and Chapters are encouraged to promote the Museum and Textile Room through funding and donations. When proposing an item for the Museum and Textile Room please submit the Museum Gift Form and photo to this Chairman for approval before sending any item to National. The Museum Chairman and /or Decorating Committee will send a confirmation of its acceptance to the donor. This form is included in the Report Packet and available on the Member Only National Website. This Chairman looks forward to any item proposed and thanks our Dames for their generous support Jane Duxbury Schleinzer

Music These are some things to do to promote music within your chapter and state: 1. Recruit Dames to sing in State Chorus, and National Chorus. Singing for 3 years in each respective chorus qualifies a chorister to purchase a pin (for both the State and National Chorus). 2.

If a state does not have a State Chorus, help organize one.

3.

To be considered for a National Music Award, submit a report describing special musical events, projects, and/or music programs (informational or performance) that took place in chapter during the year.

4.

Write informational music programs that can be placed on-line and shared with other State Music Chairmans.

5.

Present informational programs on 17th century music to chapter.

6.

Encourage the chapter vicepresident to include a music program during the two years she is in office.

7.

Invite local music organizations, churches, private and public schools, to present music programs.

8.

Encourage all chapters to sing the National Anthem at every meeting. If needed, an accompaniment CD is available from the current National Music Chairman.

9.

Identify Dames who are pianists who can share their keyboard talents by accompanying chapters for singing the National Anthem, additional patriotic songs, and also accompanying State Chorus and National Chorus.

National Defense The National Defense Committee shall: a. inform members regarding policies for legislation which protect, strengthen, or weaken our Republic: b. preserve the ideal for which our country was founded as stated in the Constitution of the United States of America. The Department of Defense was founded and shortly known as the “National Military Establishment.” Its main responsibilities are to control the Armed Forces of the United States. DoD was established in 1947 and divided into three major departments Army, Navy and Air Force. There are many agencies that have evolved under DoD as our country’s security has been threatened. Last year legislation was approved to create the United States Space Force to protect our national interest in outer space. Another that has evolved as our technology has changed is Cyber security. The United States Cyber Command is one of the eleven unified combatant commands of the DoD. Its mission is to direct, synchronize and coordinate cyberspace planning and operations to defend and advance national interest in collaboration with domestic and international parties. Cyberspace is a domain of conflict alongside the air, land, sea and space domains. The history of Department of Defense Departments/Agencies (DoD) have become a necessity because of changing ways required to protect our country. This chairman would suggest that all chapters have a program selecting a DOD department and research how it evolved, why was it established for our defense. Please contact this chairman if you require assistance. January 15 is the due date for the Chapter Chairman to report to the State Chairman and February 15 is the due

date for the State Chairman to report to the National Chairman. Renee Closs

Printing And Publications The duties of the Printing and Publications Chairman include responsibility for the printing of the Goldenrod and Summer Packet, working directly with the President General, Corresponding Secretary General, Seventeenth Century Review Chairman and Technology Support Chairman to complete this publication. The Goldenrod is mailed out with the first Review of the new administration as a supplement to the Review. The first half of the Goldenrod is a Directory of National Officers and Chairmen. This information comes from the Corresponding Secretary General to the Printing and Publications Chairman. The second half contains all the directives for National Officers and Chairmen. Information for this section is first sent by the National Officers and Chairmen to the President General for her approval. Once the material is approved by the President General it is forwarded to the Printing and Publications Chairman. Directives can be forwarded as each are approved. The directory and directives are assembled by the Printing and Publications Chairman to create the Goldenrod. Once the final draft is ready and has been approved in its final format by the President General, it is forwarded by the Printing and Publications Chairman to the Seventeenth Century Review Chairman to be included in the mailing to with the Review. The approved final draft must be received by the Seventeenth Century Review Chairman before June 1. The Summer Packet is basically the same material as the Goldenrod except that it includes forms and headings on each a page. The Printing and Publications Chairman will strive for uniformity in appearance, font style,

62 type size, etc. The information is uploaded to the website under each respective National Officer or National Chairman’s section by the Technology Support Chairman who will make the forms “writable”. The information is then consolidated into one continuous word document for the online version of the Summer Packet. It is the Society’s goal to have all directives and forms available online no later than August 1 during the first year of the new administration. Nancy McBride Wark

Public Relations This committee is dedicated to helping chapters and state societies educate members as well as our communities about CDXVIIC objectives and accomplishments. Positive communication is important to the success of our organization. Our society has always done great work but many who are qualified to join, have never heard of our group or understand why they would want to join. Proactive communications is essential to success in promoting public awareness and increasing membership. Share stories of meetings, markings and good works. The friendships and fun of Colonial Dames 17th Century are also important stories to tell. Promoting CDXVIIC to Your Members: Start with your own chapter. Members who are informed feel more connected and become more active. Active members are more likely to bring in new members. Take the time to evaluate the tools you are using to make all members feel important. Do you have newsletters, yearbooks, emailed meeting reminders, phone trees and Facebook pages? Are you using the national pamphlets, junior membership pamphlets, or pamphlets created by your state or chapter? Are you meeting at times convenient to working women? Today’s members and prospective members are busy, and club work does

not play the role that it did for their mothers and grandmothers. Are we making our organization meaningful to them? These communication tools are also vital at the state level. When the members leave their chapter and state meetings, and do they feel that they have learned something and have had fun? Promoting CDXVIIC to the Public: Reaching out to local news outlets can be difficult. Make sure that you are professional and persistence with well written press releases. Are your articles and photographs showing your work in the community? Print and broadcast media are not your only avenues. Social media is also an important tool to consider with websites and Facebook. Strive to make an impression on everyone in your community. Distribute brochures at historical societies, libraries, historic homes, and museums. Be visible in parades, community festivals, genealogical conferences, and in schools. Remember that all that we do is a form of public relations. Please submit your reports from the chapter to the state chairman by January 15 and state chairman should submit their reports to national by February 15. I look forward to hearing how you are telling the story of Colonial Dames 17 Century. Following this directive are our Facebook Guidelines. Kathy Stoess Kessinger

Facebook Guidelines There is a private Facebook (FB) Group called Colonial Dames XVII Century that is open only to current and prospective members and a public FB page called National Society Colonial Dames 17th Century that anyone can see. Facebook, gives members the opportunity to exchange ideas, share State and Chapter events and photographs, and participate in discussions and activities of interest to all members across the nation, enriching our Society and Objectives.

State/Chapter Scholarship States and Chapters are highly commended for awarding scholarships to students to assist them in attaining their educational goals. The State or Chapter Scholarship Chairman should use the required reporting form when awarding a scholarship. The State/Chapter Scholarship form is available on-line and in the summer packet. All information on this form should be complete, including the amount of the scholarship and the school of choice of the recipient. The form is then sent with the check to the State Treasurer. The State Treasurer deposits this check into the State Treasury and then sends a State check to the Treasurer General. The reporting of these funds through the office of the Treasurer General allows the National Society to retain its non-profit status with the IRS. The State/Chapter Committee Chairman is responsible for keeping a record of the scholarships given by States

and Chapters, respectively. It is from these records that this chairman’s report is made each year at the National Conference. It is hoped that States and Chapters will report their scholarships to this committee chairman so that they will receive the recognition that they so deserve. This can only be accomplished if the awarded money goes through the State Treasurer and if the reporting form is completed correctly. States and Chapters are encouraged to provide additional scholarships as funds permit. The youth of today become the leaders of tomorrow. A scholarship can make a significant difference in the lives of our future leaders. Please know that your State/Chapter Scholarship Chairman always stands ready to provide assistance.

Veterans Service Our Veterans have served their nation

with honor and distinction making great sacrifices along with valiantly and selflessly devoting themselves toward the defense of the United States of America and our freedoms. State Societies and Chapters can do something to show Veterans how much we appreciate their service by providing voluntary assistance to these heroes. This is one way to show your patriotism on behalf of our organization which was founded on our love of country and of our ancestors who fought for our precious freedoms. We and encourage states to have VAVS (Veterans Affairs Voluntary Service) Representatives and Deputy Representatives at their federal facilities. Remember you have to be appointed by our President General to become a VAVS Representative or Deputy Representative. Please contact me to get the proper form (2021-2023). A VAVS Handbook is available through our Society’s Headquarters. It explains the program along with other helpful information in serving our Veterans. There are medical centers/clinics, state Veterans homes, nursing homes, and military hospitals which need volunteers. If you do not have a federal facility in your area, you can serve Veterans in your local nursing/assisted living homes. We encourage youth volunteers as this helps the students learn how to be successful and the more likely they will volunteer later in life. You can have them make greeting cards, do favors for trays, visit nursing homes, do comfort kits, etc. Veterans love young people! Dames can adopt Veterans for special holidays, give parties, clip and send manufacturer coupons to military families overseas (Before sending make sure the facility is still open and accepting coupons.), send greeting cards for all special holidays, send cancelled stamps to assist with physical therapy, provide comfort kits, assist at Stand Down (Homeless Veterans Program), make

70 donations to assist with special programs, feed needy Veterans and their families, National Salute to Veterans Week *It is celebrated during Valentine’s Day week.), etc. Each state should have a Veterans Service Manuel as a reference tool. We continue to celebrate the 50 th Anniversary of the Vietnam War (March 29 of each yar-National Vietnam War Veterans Day) and why not honor a female veteran with a luncheon or afternoon tea. As the years progress, we are seeing more and more female Veterans who need assistance and let’s remember them, too. The next two years will be ones of joy honoring our Veterans’ memories as we seek to serve them as well as those serving in their footsteps. Please remember to use the current forms (2021-2023) for reporting. Patricia “Ann” Scott Garner

SPECIAL COMMITTEES Gravestone Preservation The Gravestone Preservation Committee’s purpose is to preserve and restore our ancestral gravestones and cemeteries. Genealogy research can’t be done in cemeteries if the stones can’t be found or read. We want to educate members and the public on the proper procedures for cemetery care for all cemeteries. Whether you are cleaning gravestones, organizing cemetery records, adding photos to a website like Find A Grave, planting flowers, mowing a cemetery, serving on a cemetery board, or many other ways to help, all count as service hours for this committee. Also marking projects are an opportunity to obtain public relation coverage and the exposure and involvement may encourage others to want to be a part of our society as well as take care of their area cemetery. Here are just a few examples of ways that

Dames have used to honor those individuals whose lasting legacy of virtue, courage and patriotism molded the character of this nation as well as showcase Colonial Dames 17th Century Dames. Dames march in parades and lay a CDXVIIC wreath at cemeteries. Some Dames post cemetery information on Find a Grave. Dames are part of a cemetery group, which presents “Stories Behind the Stones” – A Historic Tour of Fairview Cemetery. This yearly event has raised funds to restore the New Albany founding families’ gravestones, the cities original holding vault and created a great deal of awareness for the entire community about the 125 cemeteries in the county. They now do a yearly “Find Your Ancestor Day” in the cemetery. We may not be able to go where our colonial ancestors are buried but preserving the past is definitely an important goal of Colonial Dames 17 th Century. These are a just a few of the ways that members have contributed in their own hometowns. If requested by the family, the US Government provides headstones for veterans. Monument companies may donate services or provide a reduced cost. Contact the responsible cemetery personnel for acceptable methods and procedures. Our older cemeteries are full of illegible gravestones and unmarked graves. State or local societies or individual members are encouraged to place or repair headstones to the graves of missing or illegible ones with the purpose of preserving our records and our ancestral heritage. There is a plethora of sources online – but here are few to get you thinking: www.cem.va.gov/hmm/ www.in.gov/dnr/historic/3744.htm www.gravestonepreservation.info/term www.stonehugger.com/resources.html

Protocol Protocol is guidance in the ceremonial forms and courtesies that are established as the proper and correct etiquette for recognizing and honoring those in positions of leadership, remembering always that the fundamental principles of protocol are dictated by ethics, courtesy, good manners, and common sense. The National Colonial Dames XVII Century Handbook, available on the secure Member’s Section of the National Society’s website, provides invaluable information for protocol applicable for National, State, and Chapter meetings and special events, including seating charts for meetings and meals, processionals, receiving lines, and courtesies for speakers and special guests. Keep in mind that following protocol is important so that meetings and functions run smoothly, while also ensuring that all courtesies are kept. There are some helpful “Protocol Tips” that may help Members prepare for both National Society and State Society functions. At National Society meetings and meals, Members should always stand when the President General is presented, is introduced, or enters a room. Likewise, the same is true at State Society meetings and meals, when the

State President is presented, is introduced, or enters a room. When a processional enters a room, all Members should stand. All should salute and follow the Flag of the United States of America any time it moves. When presenting a report, address the presiding chair only, i.e., do not address everyone present in the room. For example, begin a report simply by saying, “Madame President General,” “Madame State President,” or “Madame Chair.” Always remember to follow the example of the presiding officer, i.e., the President General or the State President, to determine if gloves should be worn in a receiving line. Similar rules of decorum should be followed on the Chapter level, especially when the State President visits. It is appropriate to let speakers, as well as guests and Members, know ahead of time what attire is expected. When wishing to have the President General visit your State Society or Chapter in Unorganized States, issue a written invitation as soon as possible, after the National Conference at which the President General was elected. Keep in mind that providing more than one date is appropriate. If it is not possible to coordinate a visit of the President General during a state conference, the State President should arrange a luncheon or dinner meeting where all members are invited. The written invitation should include: the exact date/times of meetings and when the Presidential General is scheduled to speak as the Guest of Honor. Please provide the President General the name of the hotel where she will be staying and who her hostess is, along with the pertinent address and telephone information. It is a courteous gesture to place flowers, fruit, and snacks in her hotel room prior to her arrival. If the President General is unable to attend and another National Officer attends in her place, extend the same courtesies to her official representative. Upon request, the

74 National Public Relations Chairman will send a biography and picture of the President General, and copies of all publicity should be sent to the National Public Relations Chairman to be include in the President General’s album.

Roommates The National Society wants to assist more of our members to attend National Conference. If you are interested in sharing a room with someone and the expense of the room, please contact me. I will do my best to find you a roommate. This will depend on the number of members who wish to share. Vickie Cowsert Wilson Tellers The Tellers Committee for the National Society is appointed by the President General and performs its duty whenever a ballot vote is taken. The Committee is responsible for the preparation of the ballot box and the ballots, and for providing the instructions for voting that are appropriate for the vote being taken. The committee members distribute, collect and count the ballots; the chairman reports the vote.
