OUR PATRIOTS

The Jacob Gaskins Chapter, NSDAR, proudly honors those whose service and sacrifice supported the cause of American independence. Below, our Patriots are organized by state and then alphabetically by last name. If a Patriot served in more than one state, additional states are noted in parentheses following their rank.
