The National Society Daughters of the American Revolution was founded on October 11, 1890. Its objectives are to perpetuate the memory and spirit of the men and women who achieved American Independence;  to carry out the injunction of Washington in his farewell address to the American people, "to promote, as an object of primary importance, institutions for the general diffusion of knowledge, thus developing an enlightened public opinion… " and  to cherish, maintain and extend the institutions of American freedom, to foster true patriotism and love of country, and to aid in securing for mankind all the blessings of liberty.

The President General is the official spokesperson for the National Society.

Spring Creek Chapter was formed on December 7, 1983.  The Organizing Regent was Mrs. Stephen W. (Diana) Pierce.  Our chapter is named in honor of the Texas colonists who received land titles to leagues straddling Spring Creek, the present boundary between Harris and Montgomery Counties.  The Spring Creek surveys began approximately 16 miles west of Tomball and stretched to a place four miles northeast of the city.
