Brethren,

Announcement: Our Unstated Zoom Meetings will resume in January. Stay tuned for details!Here is our latest installment of research papers from Virginia Research Lodge No. 1777. If you would like to be added to the list, or have a friend who would like to be on the list, just send me an email or message. This week’s submission is from Wor. Christopher S. Tripp, entitled “On the Antiquity of Washington’s Lodge” which was presented to George Washington Lodge of Research No. 1732 on September 8, 2019.

This well-researched paper explores the oldest recorded minutes of Fredericksburg No. 4, dated September 1, 1752. There is some conjecture this was the first actual meeting of the Lodge, but the author presents several arguments against that possibility. The paper also discusses the oldest recorded Royal Arch Degree conferred in the world on December 22, 1753 also in that Lodge. An interesting point about these first minutes is that the Worshipful Master’s name was stricken, and efforts to interpret whose name was blacked out are discussed.

If you enjoy these weekly papers, I highly recommend attending one of Virginia’s premier Research Lodges. Hearing a paper presented in person by the author, with the discussion afterwards, is a far superior experience to simply reading it for yourself. Also, there are papers presented in a Research Lodge that will never be made available online.
