Welcome to Descendants of Confederate Veterans Website

The Descendants of Confederate Veterans is an organization preserving the history and legacy of Confederate Heroes, so future generations may understand the motives that galvanized the Southern Cause. Membership in the Descendants of Confederate Veterans is open to all male and female descendants of any veteran who served honorably in the Confederate armed forces. or Confederate Government.

While here, why not listen to our Association Song, "Descendants of Confederate Veterans", written and produced by our 1st Lt. David Richard Reynolds Chapter Associate Member, Harry King and sung by Hal Roper.

Membership can be obtained through either direct or collateral family lines and kinship to a veteran must be documented genealogically. There is no minimum age for membership, however you must have reached the age of 18 in order to vote or hold office. If you are interested in perpetuating the ideals that motivated your Confederate ancestor, the DCV needs you. The memory and reputation of the Confederate soldier, as well as the motives for his suffering and sacrifice, are being consciously distorted by some in an attempt to alter history. A unique part of our nation's cultural heritage will cease to exist unless the descendants of Southern soldiers resist those efforts.
