Our Mission. The UDC has not changed much since the day it first began; with core objectives
still maintaining historical preservation, benevolence,
education, memorialism, and patriotism. The UDC answers
the call of duty, not only to honor American Veterans,
but to serve our current service men and women who
put their lives on the line for our freedom everyday.
Chapter Origins
Seattle - UDC Centennial Ball.
The Seattle United Daughters of the Confederacy,
Robert E. Lee Chapter #885 was chartered
March 21, 1905. At that time, many members
were real daughters and wives of Confederate
Veterans. The Robert E. Lee Chapter of
Seattle celebrated their Centennial Anniversary
with a ball held in the Wilsonian Ball
Room on University Avenue on March 12,
2005.
Our Book, "A Chapter in Pacific Northwest History."
This documents the hundred year history
of the United Daughters of the Confederacy,
Robert E. Lee Chapter #885 in Seattle,
and its numerous contributions to the State
of Washington. Written by M. A. Reeves,
this book is an excellent resource for genealogists and
historians alike.
