The 1st Lt. David Richard Reynolds Chapter is an active "Virtual Chapter" in the Descendants of Confederate Veterans, a Texas Association. This simply means that we meet by Zoom, and do not have a regular meeting place where we meet face to face. What is a Chapter you may ask, well much like a Freemason's Lodge, Boy Scout Troop etc., a Chapter is not a building or place of meeting but the physical body of the local membership.
While here, why not listen to our Association Song, "Descendants of Confederate Veterans", written and produced by our 1st Lt. David Richard Reynolds Chapter Associate Member, Harry King and sung by Hal Roper.
The Descendants of Confederate Veterans is an organization preserving the history and legacy of Confederate Heroes, so future generations may understand the motives that galvanized the Southern Cause. Organized at Ennis, Texas, on May 15th, 2005, the DCV continues to serve as a historical, patriotic and non-political organization dedicated to ensuring that a true history of the 1861-1865 period is preserved. Membership in the Descendants of Confederate Veterans is open to all male or female descendants of any veteran who served honorably in the Confederate armed forces.
Membership can be obtained through either direct or collateral family lines and kinship to a veteran must be documented genealogically. There is no minimum age for membership, however, you must reach the age of 18 before you can vote or hold office. If you are interested in perpetuating the ideals that motivated your Confederate ancestor, the DCV needs you. The memory and reputation of the Confederate soldier, as well as the motives for his suffering and sacrifice, are being consciously distorted by some in an attempt to alter history. A unique part of our nation's cultural heritage will cease to exist unless the descendants of Southern soldiers resist those efforts.
If you have a Confederate ancestor, and are interested in becoming a member of or any DCV Chapter please contact Joe Reynolds. If you are unsure if you had a Confederate ancestor or not, but are interested, let me help you do the research and find out if you have one.
