Daughters of the Republic of Texas

American nonprofit organization

The Daughters of the Republic of Texas (DRT) is a lineal association dedicated to perpetuating the memory of the founding families and soldiers of the Republic of Texas. The Daughters of the Republic of Texas is best known for its former role as caretakers of The Alamo.[3] In early 2015, Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush officially removed control of the Alamo to the Texas General Land Office.[4] The DRT were also the custodians of the historic French Legation Museum until 2017, which is owned by the State of Texas and is now operated by the Texas Historical Commission. In addition, they operate a museum in Austin on the history of Texas.

Membership is limited to descendants of ancestors who "rendered loyal service for Texas" prior to February 19, 1846,[5] the date the Republic ceased to exist and Texas handed over authority to the United States.

Beginnings

The Daughters of the Republic of Texas was formed in 1891[6] by cousins Betty Eve Ballinger&#
