Roughly one Sunday a month...
Maria Cole, a member of the Maryland Toaping Castle chapter of the DAR, has traced her ancestry back to two black Revolutionary War soldiers. She said she joined the DAR in 2004 because she felt that the “very least” she could do was honor her ancestors by joining the organization...
