Order
of Descendants of Ancient Planters The term "Ancient Planter" is applied to
those persons who arrived in Virginia before 1616, remained for a period of three
years, paid their passage, and survived the massacre of 1622. They received the
first patents of land in the new world as authorized by Sir Thomas Dale in 1618
for their personal adventure. Order of Descendants of Ancient Planters is an
incorporated non-profit society whose purpose is to honor and perpetuate the
memory of the Ancient Planters; to promote historical and genealogical research;
to inspire patriotism; and to enhance fellowship among those of similar
interests. The Order of Descendants of Ancient Planters was
founded October 13, 1991 in Raleigh, North Carolina. Membership is limited to
descendants of Ancient Planters. Persons unknown to members of the Society may
submit the name of their ancestor with a letter of endorsement. An invitation
may then be issued. An invitation is valid for one year from the date it is
issued. Persons under the age of 21 may become Junior Members
upon the approval of application papers and payment of application fee. They pay
no yearly dues. List of Approved Ancient Planters
