The SCV is the direct heir of the United Confederate Veterans, and the oldest hereditary
organization for male descendants 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.
  The Sons of Confederate Veterans are preserving the legacy and history of our
Confederate heros so future generations can understand the Southern cause.

"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. Remember, it is your duty to see that the true history of the South is presented to future generations."
Lt. General Stephen Dill Lee, Commander General,
United Confederate Veterans,
New Orleans, Louisiana, April 25, 1906
