Society of Colonial Wars

The Society of Colonial Wars is a hereditary organization founded in 1893 that celebrates and preserves the history and legacy of America's colonial period (roughly the 1600s and early 1700s). Membership is typically limited to descendants of individuals who participated in or contributed to the colonial struggles before the United States became independent. The society promotes historical research, education, and patriotic activities related to America's colonial heritage. It emphasizes patriotism, historical preservation, and recognizing those who helped establish the early colonies that laid the foundation for the nation.
