What Every Candidate Should Know
Freemasonry is the oldest Fraternal organization in existence. Written records date back to 1390, and the traditions of Masonry are even older. The Grand Lodge of Virginia is the oldest independent body in the United States. A roster of Masonic membership reads like a study in American history. It is led by George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Chief Justice John Marshall, Edmund Randolph, and a host of signers of the Declaration of Independence and the United States constitution. Since those early years of our country’s history, Masonic membership has continued to include many famous Americans, including United States Presidents, Congressmen, State Governors, and other well known men in leadership positions. The Masonic Fraternity includes men from all walks of life; professionals, tradesmen, and laborers.
