The United Daughters of the Confederacy is the outgrowth of many local memorial, monument, and Confederate home associations and auxiliaries to camps of United Confederate Veterans that were organized after the War Between the States. It is the oldest patriotic organization in our country because of its connection with two statewide organizations that came into existence as early as 1890 — the Daughters of the Confederacy (DOC) in Missouri and the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Confederate Soldiers Home in Tennessee.
The Sterling Price Chapter was organized in Stockton, California on April 27th, 1911. We are the fourth oldest chapter in the California Division. Our chapter is named in honor of Major General Sterling Price of the Confederate States Army, 1861-1865.
Sterling Price Chapter #1343 belongs to the California Division of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. The California Division belongs to the General Organization of the United Daughters of the Confederacy headquartered in Richmond, Virginia.
