Membership Eligibility Requirements

Due to the deep history of the organization, there are eligibility requirements.  All female blood relatives, ten (10) years of age or over, of honorably discharged Union Soldiers, Sailors and Marines of the Civil War, 1861 to 1865, also ex-army nurses of that War, are eligible for membership. Most importantly, however, is the desire to honor the past through education and preservation.
Dues are subject to the Circle (or local group) in which you are joining.  Application paperwork accompanying your dues should be sent to the Circle Secretary.   A Department or Circle Under National can be found on the “Roster” page.
