Excerpt from A Masonic Register for 5855: Containing a List of All Lodges, Chapters, Councils and Encampments, With the Membership of Each, in the State of New York
IN the early part of December last the compiler of this little book was advised by several of the leading masons in this city to publish a Masonic Register of the State of New York-and knowing well the value of such a work, especially to the Country Lodges, he addressed a private circular to several prominent brethren in the State an nouncing his intention and soliciting their views and ad vice. Hc received from every quarter the assurance that the Register would meet a ready and warm recep tion - and commenced his task of collecting material for its pages with the beginning of the Masonic Year. Several of those brethren who are ever ready and willing to aid in the dissemination of light and knowledge promptly replied, and furnished all the statistical in formation respecting their Lodges.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extract from the proceedings of the Masonic Order of New York State in 1855. For the first time in its history, the Grand Master of the Order requested all subordinate lodges to submit detailed reports on their membership, finances and other aspects. This compendium contains the responses from 138 lodges covering all aspects of the order's business across the state. As of 1855, the order contained 14,239 members across the 138 lodges. These proceedings provide valuable references for historians and family historians, as there are few records of the early Masons in the 18th and early 19th centuries.
