Ann Arundel Chapter, NSDAR

Welcome

The Ann Arundel Chapter,  NSDAR, was organized November 13, 1911. The chapter was named for Lady Anne Arundell, wife of Cecilius Calvert, 2nd Lord Baltimore. As the chapter was named for the daughter of Lord Arundell Wardour, and not for Anne Arundel County, it was decided to use the name "Ann Arundel." At the 7th Annual State Conference on November 16, 1911, the new chapter was introduced as "Ann Arundel" with the accent upon the first syllable of the surname (Air'-un-dell).

The Ann Arundel Chapter, NSDAR, has a special mission of preserving and protecting an historic eighteenth century building, the Rising Sun Inn (pictured above).
