On Friday, October 31, 2025 at the One Hundred and Thirty-Second Annual General Convention, hosted by the Texas Division of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, a presentation was made to the advisor of the Maj. George W. Durant 935 Humble Chapter, Texas Division, Children of the Confederacy.
That adviser is Mrs. Anna Shepeard and is affectionally called Miss Anna. The items presented to Miss Anna, were two activity booklets about Montgomery County and one paperback book on the H. L. Hunley. These items were presented by Eva Rains, representing the Thomas Jefferson Stubbs 2523 Conroe Chapter,
Texas Division, UDC. Miss Anna is the president of the Magnolia Rangers 2544 Humble Chapter, Texas Division UDC.
As the advisor, Miss Anna, will offer advice, answer questions and show the children how to follow the proper protocol at that meeting, but the children hold their own meetings. Once a newborn infant has a birth certificate, the parents can make application for their child to join the CofC and when a young lady
is 16 years of age, she will age out and may join the UDC. At the
minimum of 12 years old, a young man may join the Sons of Confederate Veterans.
