Today, the Sons of Confederate Veterans is preserving the history
and legacy of these heroes, so future generations can understand the motives that animated the Southern Cause.
The SCV is the direct heir of the United Confederate Veterans, and the oldest
hereditary organization for male descendents of Confederate soldiers. Organized at Richmond, Virginia in 1896, the SCV continues
to serve as a historical, patriotic, and non-political organization dedicated to insuring that a true history of the 1861-1865
period is preserved.
Membership in the Sons of Confederate Veterans is open to all male
descendents of any veteran who served honorably in the Confederate armed forces.

"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we will commit the vindication of the cause for which we fought. To your
strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation
of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles which he loved and which you love also, and those ideals which made him
glorious and which you also cherish."
United Confederate Veterans,
New Orleans, Louisiana, April 25, 1906.
