Greetings from the State Regent

On behalf of the members of the Georgia State Society, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the State Society web site. The state of Georgia is proud of the role it played in securing American independence in 1776. Every corner of this state, every town however large or small, has some historical significance; everywhere you may look there is an historic site or landmark to explore. Several signers of the Declaration of Independence called Georgia home; the Georgia State Society is most proud of "Meadow Garden," home of George Walton, the youngest to sign the Declaration.

Georgia Daughters are proud of their Revolutionary heritage and put in thousands of hours a year in preservation activities and in educating visitors and Georgia youth. Perhaps you have a Revolutionary ancestor in your family as well! The Georgia State Society gladly welcomes inquiries about Society membership.

Please visit our site again soon as more information about Georgia history and Georgia State Society activities are in development. We welcome your comments and questions.
