FURTHER NOTES
 
 
 
 
The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR) publishes a Patriot Index, a list of persons whose honorable service in the cause of independence during the American Revolution renders their female descendants eligible for membership in the NSDAR. Several ancestors of Sen. Lugar appear in the Patriot Index, including:


    Michael Braun (number 134)
    Jacob Echols (number 132)
    Adam Lugar (number 64)

While Sen. Lugar is not eligible for membership in the NSDAR (by not being female), he is eligible for membership in the equivalent organization for men, the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution.
