Former WVSSAR state president Steven Hart has won the prestigious Stewart Boone McCarthy award this year.
This award is in recognition of his hard work in the preservation of United States history and the encouragement of its teaching in our schools. Compatriot Hart has long been a strong advocate of SAR youth outreach programs and is well deserving of this honor.
Thanks to the hard work of state registrar Louis Ruf, the West Virginia Society has won the Genealogist General’s award for being one of the top three states with the lowest percentage of pended applications.
