We are happy to announce that the volume “Supplemental Applications” has been added to our database, Society of Colonial Wars in Massachusetts Membership Applications, 1560-1970. This update contains 12,400 pages, 136,123 records, and 324,844 names.
Since its founding in 1893, the SCWMA has combined fraternal good fellowship with a dedication to promoting patriotic values and a knowledge of colonial American history, particularly its military dimension.
This database provides records that includes the applicant’s name, their colonial ancestor, and the birth, marriage, and death information for each generation of descendants on the application. In addition, the membership numbers for the state and the general society are displayed.
The page number for the applications are in the format [MA state member number]:[supplemental number]:[page number].
Please note: This database is available to Individual-level and above American Ancestors members only. Consider membership.
