[The two societies (Sons of the American Revolution and Sons of the Revolution) are alike in their aims and objects. These are fostering among themselves and their descendants the patriotic spirit of the men who in the naval, military or civil service of the colonies assisted in advancing the independence of the United States, and to collect and preserve the history of the revolutionary war and to promote intercourse and fraternal feeling among the members. Eligibility to membership in each is confined to male descendants from an ancestor who as a soldier, sailor or civil official assisted in establishing American independence during the war of the revolution.]
