Message:: Why is there such secrecy in your organization? As a child I've always wondered why a supposedly good christian organization would want to be so elusive. Thank you, Natileigh Nichols

[web-master's note:1) Who told you we are secret? We aren't. What do you want to know about us, our symbols, our aims, our teachings? Why do you think I have 20 Mbytes of material up on my web-site?
1a) Following the custom of the mediaval trade guilds, we have certain ordinary words and gestures and designated them as "tokens" of our craft, which we only teach to our initiates. So those few words are secret, but that would only matter to someone who was planning to pretend to be a Mason when they weren't. It's a custom we keep from the days before faxes, laminated IDs, and such, when a new workman at a building site had to easily prove his skill level (apprentice, journeyman, etc.)
2) We are NOT a "good christian organization". We are an organization of good men of EVERY religion. This does seem to really p.o. a small subset of christians, but in general, the people that it bothers don't get along well with folks who aren't exactly like themselves anyway, so it's no big loss.]

[Web-master's note: Hi. The e-mail address doesn't look like it's gonna work, but this is a test message. You can find out something about all those adoptive orders your dad belonged to from the Pointers page at my website. They are mostly what are called "side bodies" associated with Masonry. I will be posting more information about the organization of these bodies in the near future.]

Message:: Some lodge brothers believe that the Masonic Order is a replacement for church. This has caused a lot of conflict through the ages. Their is One God and One Son (Jesus Christ) and One Holy Spirit (3 in 1 or the Trinity). Our faith in Jesus as our Saviour is the only way to heaven and Salvation. I am sorry if I offend our Jewish Bros., but I believe what I believe because I am a Christian (Southern Baptist). I would be glad to correspond with others on this subject.

Message:: I am looking for information about my Grandfather, William Chester Harwood. His "Blue Lodge" was in Ferndale, MI and he was supposed to have been a member of Lodge No. 133 in Detroit, MI sometime in the late teens and early 1920's. I also believe he transfered to a Lodge somewhere in Indiana sometime around 1913 or 1914, but do not know where in Indiana. He was born August 4, 1886 in Alport, PA and died August 5, 1955 in Jacksonville, FL. I am also trying to find his first child by his first wife. The childs name at birth was Ethel Harwood and I believe she was born in Detroit sometime around January 1917. If she or her mother Flossy are still alive, they have a very LARGE family in the south that would like to get in touch. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, Wendy Harwood

Message:: My gggrandfather, Jonathan Worhty Jordan, and Joseph Kennedy, according to family info, started the first lodge in either Columbia County, Hot Spring County or Garland County. Jonathan Jordan was a Mason in the Georgia Encampment of the 100F sometime before 1853. He moved to Magnolia, Columbia County, AR in 1853; then to Hot Spring County in 1860. In 1873 Garland County was formed and Jonathan became the first circuit court judge, from 1874-1876. Would like to know where I can get information on the formation of the lodges in the counties mentioned, if it exists.

[Web-master's Note: I recommend John Robinson's Pilgrim's Path to read while you wait for your initiation. Also, see if the lodge can help you find Carl Claudy's excellent 3-short-volume set Introduction to Freemasonry (sadly now out of print) for reading after each degree. Also quite good is Allen Roberts's The Craft and its Symbols -- and NOTE if a member of your lodge belongs to the Southern California Research Lodge, the SCRL will send them a free copy of the Roberts book for presentation at your 1st degree.]

Message:: Researching family name, "BERRY." About 1980-81, there was an article in our Masonic magazine which refers and quotes an incident occuring in 1861. An officer in the Army of the Potomac wrote a letter to John Smallwood BERRY, Most Worshipful Master of the Grand Lodge of Maryland, about return "jewels" of a Lodge which had been destroyed in military action and which was in the officer's possession. The Maryland BERRYs are prominent in my lineage, as is the SMALLWOOD family name. I believe John Smallwood BERRY to be my ancestor. This "widow's son" would sure appreciate some help with discovering more about the Mason, John Smallwood Berry. Any help, direction, suggestion ... greatly appreciated. Thanks much! Jim
