Yes, I am looking for confirmation of the name changes, both of which I assume were not done through legal channels.<br /><br />How challenging for you regarding your grandparents' information. Thankfully, DAR will take into consideration other documentation, but even so, that must be along acceptable lines. Please do stop by here again and keep us updated on your application and progress. There are a number of us here who are going through the same process.Jacqi Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03471698670217119444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-13747521581482660202012-10-09T17:55:58.440-07:002012-10-09T17:55:58.440-07:00I assume you're looking for a name change, rat...I assume you're looking for a name change, rather than for a maiden name? And you say there may not be a document. I wish you the best of luck in this journey, and I hope to read about how you find the answer. I'm just finishing up my application to the DAR now. You are right that they can be very, very picky. They may very well count "clues" in your little brown book, though. So far, the local DAR chapter has accepted my grandparents' letters of proposal and acceptance to prove their marriage month. But we await the ruling of the national DAR.Mariannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09543003593158696611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5034998384799920884.post-51826876445845580372012-10-08T22:16:22.495-07:002012-10-08T22:16:22.495-07:00Glad you--and all your photographs--are back from ...Glad you--and all your photographs--are back from your trip to the lake.
