 On May 19, 1908, a
group of ladies met at the First Presbyterian Church to organize a new chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution. Sarah Strothers Robins Tappey became the organizing regent.
The chapter
chose its name as a tribute to the original name of
Huntsville. In 1811, Huntsville was incorporated as Twickenham Town
but was renamed Huntsville after the first settler
John Hunt during the War of 1812.
We are a friendly and diverse
group of women of many ages and talents. You will find we look forward to meeting our visitors. Please contact our
Regent
Candace
Krugh
