It was a complete rabbit hole.. and I ended up in it again the other day... it's been a great way to see the way lodges moved around local pubs, and broken a few myths about the first pub the lodge met in :)

Thanks for your reply !

I will not wish you luck - I will wish you every success !

I spend hours the other might searching lodges in this directory of English Lodges. I may be a sad boring fellow - but it was fun ! ;) https://www.dhi.ac.uk/lane/

Hello Benjamin, I know that was directed at Glen, but we're interested in history.... Which 1926 committee ? "Why do most researchers continue to state that African lodge 459 has the only original English warrant (before the union) still in their archives?" Because it is either established...

Welcome and congratulations Brother :)

It's rare.. but also, I don't see the point of reading something you can read at home being read in lodge. That sort of thing is often more about the ego of the writer (or reader) rather than education. Better to discuss an essay than to have it read. It can make for a good Lodge Meeting - give...

Thanks !

And I am still thinking on him....

Congratulations and Freemasonry will teach you many things if you listen to it :)

Me good ! Hope you are too. How many Freemasons were there in Finland ?

I agree, the wikipedia site seems okay, but only an overview. It would be very hard to go wrong with these ones https://www.grandlodgescotland.com/structure/district-grand-lodges/district-grand-lodge-of-lebanon/

Poor old Gordon Lodge. It has been removed from it's historic building because UGLV deemed it unsafe. Kent and Brendan and others are keen on these RSR and it was approved by the previous MWGM and the Board of General Purposes, which has since "dissolved" itself, and the current MWGM has put a...
