Eleanor Roosevelt was a member of the DAR but quit over the Marian Anderson thing, which really hurt the image of the DAR (but may have been the decision of one person or a handful of people).

The Sons of the American Revolution was founded a year before the DAR--the DAR was founded when the SAR would not let women join.

As far as I know, the issue of women claiming to be men and wanting to join the SAR has not arisen, at least not yet.
