Chapter History

Mrs. Samuel Meredith Ragland organized the Lone Star Chapter National Society Daughters of the American Revolution of Texarkana, Texas, in October, 1909. The chapter was named for the Lone Star State as proposed by Mrs. W.T. Hudgins. With Texarkana being in Arkansas and Texas, the chapter received members from both states and grew rapidly. Soon, our Arkansas sisters withdrew and organized a chapter for the State of Arkansas, naming it the Texarkana Chapter NSDAR.

Mrs. Andrew Rose (Bessie Williams), a charter member of the Lone Star Chapter NSDAR, served as Texas State Historian from 1912-1914 and the Texas State Regent from 1914-1916.

The 16th annual State Conference of the Texas Society Daughters of the American Revolution was held in Texarkana at the Central Christian Church and the Huckins House. This 1915 meeting was hosted by the Lone Star Chapter and chaired by charter member, Susan Ferguson Sanderson (Mrs. Noah P.).
