About
the Order of Confederate Rose.....
The OCR
is nonprofit, nonracial, nonpolitical and nonsectarian.
The OCR assists the SCV (Sons of Confederate Veterans)
with their historical, educational, benevolent and
social functions. Special emphasis is placed on the
preservation of Confederate symbols. There are few
rules and restrictions to stifle the creativity of its
members. Each OCR Chapter is free to focus on the
activities important to its local SCV Camp along with
supporting their efforts on the state and national
levels.
As
members of the Belle Boyd Illinois Chapter of the OCR we
are dedicated to preserving, through means of education
and accurate historical representations, the vital
significance and importance of women's roles during the
Civil War. We also have Black Rose Society Members
available for memorials.
*********************************************************************
Our Chapter mourns the loss of our Chapter Founder and
President, Miss Judith Esarove who went to be with the
Lord on Saturday February 13, 2010.
Her memory will live in our hearts forever.
Miss Judith photographed with her husband Lee at our OCR
Tea Party in the Summer of 2007.
Please keep the Esarove Family in your prayers.
