Societies I'm eligible for (the dues REALLY start adding up!):
Founders of Ancient Windsor, Founders of New Haven Colony, Colonial Dames, Loyalists and Patriots, Guild of Artisans and Tradesmen, Presidents and First Ladies, Colonial Daughters of the 17th Century, Colonial Clergy, Antebellum Bench and Bar, Winthrop Society, and Daughters of Norway (just found out that one in this thread!).

Societies that I am SO close to being eligible for:
Mayflower (1 generation missing documentation!), Magna Charta, and Descendants of the Illegitimate Sons & Daughters of the Kings of Britain (and I'm sure there are some others as well!)

How do you prove you're a decendant of an illigetimate child? The child would had to have been ligitimatized (?) at some point, right?
