The Sons of the Revolution in the State of New York, Inc. (SRNY) is a nonprofit society composed of descendants of those who served in the American Revolutionary War. Since 1883, the organization has worked to preserve the memory, history, and principles of the American Revolution. It is known for its stewardship of Fraunces Tavern, a historic landmark located in the downtown Financial District of Lower Manhattan. 

Each membership application traces a member's descent from a Revolutionary War patriot, offering a wealth of genealogical and other historical details, including:

  • Birth, marriage, and death information
  • Places of residence
  • Correspondence and certificates
  • Biographical detail on both everyday New Yorkers and notable figures such as descendants of the Astor, Hamilton, Morgan, and Roosevelt families
  • Records of SRNY's activities and the stewardship of Fraunces Tavern

This collection was preserved and made accessible online through the NYG&B's Digitize New York Initiative.
