==History==
The DAR Museum was founded in 1890 (the same founding year as the National Society Of Daughters of the American Revolution) as a way of depositing and displaying family heirlooms. As a part of the NSDAR, the museum sought to promote historic preservation and patriotism through collections and displays of colonial era artifacts. Thanks to several DAR organizational, member, non-member, and purchased acquisitions, the museum's collection expanded to more than 30,000 items over the years.
