History Of Our Chapter

Mary Fell Stevenson NSDAR was organized June 5, 2014, and on April 10, 2015, a charter was granted to the chapter by the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR or DAR).   The founders chose the name Mary Fell Stevenson to honor the first woman to settle in the Enumclaw area in 1852.   Our Chapter is incredibly special, because we enjoy sewing colonial costumes, recognizing our young people for their educational efforts, assisting in the maintenance of our local cemetery, and working within our community (alongside community leaders) to make a difference.  

There were 12 organizing members, plus 10 charter members.  As of July 2022, we have 70 members.
