About the Register of Ancestors
The ROA is regularly updated as new information is confirmed. We’re proud to add an increasing number of female ancestors to the ROA as we work toward our goal of having 250 female ancestors in the ROA by the year 2026. Each Colonial State Society maintains and updates its own list of eligible ancestors according to its own list of qualifying services and the provisions of the NSCDA’s Constitution.
