​Welcome! The members of the Governor William Livingston Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR),​ welcome you to our website and thank you for visiting. We are a very active group of women who are dedicated to the service of God, Home and Country.
​
The chapter sponsors the Susan and Henry Livingston Society of the Children of the American Revolution (C.A.R.), which is an organization designed to teach children about patriotism. In addition, the C.A.R. helps children develop many skills which will serve them well, such as leadership, public speaking and public service.

Who Are the Governor William Livingston Chapter, NSDAR, Daughters

What We Do

New Jersey Daughters, descendants of ordinary women and men who achieved extraordinary things, share a common bond of ancestry and are proud of their heritage and the role of their ancestors, who risked their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor in establishing our great country. We honor their sacrifices through the volunteer work of our members in the mission areas of DAR.
