Captain Matthew Flinders Chapter, NSDAR
Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
In 1983, the first chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR) was established in Sydney, Australia, with members from all over the country. The Captain Matthew Flinders Chapter NSDAR includes membership from Daughters who have relocated from USA to Australia and Australian native Daughters who, through their own ancestry research, discovered their connection to a patriot.
In 1987, the chapter in Melbourne was formed and the Captain Matthew Flinders Chapter NSDAR was formally recognized as the second chapter in Australia.
The Captain Matthew Flinders Chapter NSDAR holds quarterly meetings on the fourth Sunday in February, May, August, and November. The November meeting is a Thanksgiving meeting, with all the family and friends invited to share a traditional Thanksgiving dinner.
Currently, the chapter has selected two Australian organisations. These are the Royal Flying Doctor Services and Guide Dogs of Victoria.
