The siege/battle for NO started Dec 12th 1814. To become a member of the Daughters or Sons of the War of 1812 you must have served from 1812 through this time. Also the US govt recognized all soldiers during through the time of the Battle of NO as soldiers who participated in the War of 1812. By ginving them land bounty grants for their service.
BTW if it was not for the soldiers who came down from TN the British would have won that battle. The local residents had no chance.
