COLONIAL DAMES STARTS YEAR OFF RIGHT
The Princess Amelia Chapter Colonial Dames of the XVII Century started 2022 off right by donating two books to the Fernandina Beach Branch Library. These genealogical books deal with the 17th century.
Colonial Dames of the XVII Century is an international, lineage-based organization of women with documented ancestors who lived and served in one of the 13 original American Colonies before 1701. With over 11,000 members in 46 states and Canada, its primary mission is the preservation of historic sites and records, promotion of heraldry and coats of arms, support of charitable projects, and the education of the nation’s children.
