Several of my ancestors fought in the American Revolution and have been certified by the DAR. If you happen to already have a detailed family tree going back to your fifth or sixth great-grandfathers, they can look on the DAR list and see if you qualify as having an ancestor in the war. If you don’t have that, you certainly won’t know in an hour if you do. Ancestry studies is great fun, but it can easily consume hundreds of hours, and you need to know your way around a computer.
