The Noah Coleman Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution was organized October 3, 1909 and was granted its Charter on December 21st of the same year.  The Chapter was named for the Revolutionary Ancestor of the first Chapter Regent, Mrs. Harriet Coleman Forbes.  Mrs. Forbes was the granddaughter of Surgeon Noah Coleman, III who served in the infantry during the Revolutionary War from 1777 until 1781 in the 2nd Regiment from Connecticut.  His honorable discharge was signed by George Washington.

     On October 30, 1909, the State Regent, Mrs. Samuel Green of St. Louis visited the Chapter at the home of Mrs. Forbes to install the first officers.  The first yearbook was dated 1909-1911 and had twenty chapter members listed; all of whom are deceased.

     Today, the Noah Coleman Chapter has grown and still cherishes the values of its first members.  We still follow the same rituals and beliefs of our Charter Members; to be a part of our communities, to support and help our families in need, our youth, educators, veterans, and service members through donations, scholarships, correspondence, and awareness.
