Welcome to the official website of the
National Society
Colonial Daughters of the Seventeenth Century.
Celebrating over 120 years of historic education, service and philanthropy

Dear Daughters,
I will never forget my first General Business Assembly with President General Kathryn Albertson presiding. It was awesome and I knew I wanted to be a part of this Society. Next came the day my membership certificate arrived, I was so nervous opening the package, my heart was racing. Little did this new member ever dream or think what April 2018 would have in store for her. Thank you for the confidence you have placed in me and in our leadership, your officers are working to uphold this high honor.
As we have moved forward from the General Society in 1906, to the National Society in 1948, we still have miles to go before we sleep. It will take much work by all to keep us up front as we cherish our past and honor our ancestors.
We have been blessed with many wonderful Presidents' General and their projects. The project for this administration will be historic Jamestowne. Please also remember our past projects are most worthy of our support!

Together we can and will work to bring honor to those who had the vision and the insight to bring Colonial Daughters of the Seventeenth Century into fruition, so we could partake in and enjoy our beloved Society today.
Your board is always open for "your" input. We covet your thoughts and prayers as we set our sights on the future of our Society and soar with the Eagles!
Blessing on each of you and those you love,
Ann Scott Garner
President General
