American secret society Nativist organization

The Daughters of America is an American secret society, Nativist organization dating from the late-19th century. It was founded in 1891 as an auxiliary of the Junior Order of United American Mechanics.^[1] Since its heyday in the 1930s, the organization is believed to have shrunk significantly, to the point that it is no longer known whether or not it still exists.

As of July 2022, the organization is still active, though membership is dwindling and new membership almost nonexistent.^{[citation needed]}
