Abstract:	Presented here are the preliminary results of a survey which identifies 38 stars as likely members of the R CrA T association. This more than doubles the number of well-established member stars that were previously known in this region. Using a combination of ROSAT imagery with new ground-based VRI photometry and classification spectroscopy, the likely optical counterparts to 17 X-ray sources seen in the vicinity of the star R CrA are identified. Seven of these counterparts are believed to be previously undiscovered association members. New VRI photometry and spectroscopy were also obtained for 39 stars with uncertain membership status from previous Hα/near-IR surveys of this region. Seventeen of these stars are now considered to be likely association members.
