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. McCain appear in the Patriot Index, including:


    Valentine Allen (number 134)
    Richard Fenner (number 42)
    Nathaniel Scales (number 66)
    John Wright (number 96)
    John Wright (number 192)
    John Young (number 72)

While Sen. McCain 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.
