It’s often said that it takes a village to nurture the well-being of a child and build a thriving community. In San Marcos, the Captain Thomas Moore Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution demonstrates how even the smallest efforts can drive transformative change.
Founded in 1923 by Renick Frazier Ansell, the chapter has stood as a beacon of service and patriotism for over a century. Remaining steadfast in their mission to honor the legacy of those who fought for American independence, the chapter continues to uphold the core principles of NSDAR: historical preservation, education and patriotism.
The chapter’s dedication is evident in their impactful initiatives. Members honor our veterans by placing wreaths on their graves, fund food pantries for schools and veterans, and support local schools through serving and donations. Their efforts also extend to participating in patriotic events and preserving local history by maintaining the El Camino Real DAR markers. These acts of service reflect their unwavering commitment to bettering the community and honoring the past.
