Chapter History

 Liberty Bell of the West Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution(NSDAR), was organized in July 2002. When the chapter was founded, the members decided to name the chapter after the Liberty Bell of the West, because of its steep historic importance. The founding members are active participants in the Randolph County community and are dedicated to the NSDAR's mission for promoting patriotism, preserving American history and securing America's future through better education.  The original 15 founding members are:
Theresa Margaret Prest Albers
