My friends - In today's post, I am listing the Masonic lodges which were established in the JP region in the middle 19th century, with their lodge numbers. In a second posting shortly, I will give a short background on each lodge and then follow that with a third posting showing the membership in these lodges in the 1860 -1880 time frame. The lodges are as follows: Benton Lodge # 205 Birmingham Lodge # 290 Baltimore Lodge # 361 Cynthiana Lodge # 18 Cynthiana[sic] Lodge # 77 Dublin Lodge # 237 Columbus Lodge # 173 Clinton Lodge # 131 Feliciana Lodge #172 Hickman Lodge # 120 Wadesboro Lodge # 105 (this lodge moved to Murray after Murray became county seat) Murray Lodge # 105 Mayfield Lodge 146 Mayfield[sic] Lodge # 302 Moscow Lodge # 200 Massac [McCracken Co.] Lodge # 360 New Concord Lodge # 188 North Ballard Lodge # 332 Paducah Lodge # 127 Pleasant Grove Lodge # 318 Shiloh[Temple Hill] Lodge # 276 Some of these lodges were consolidated into other lodges over time, some disappeared, and, in some cities, additional lodges were added as the cities grew in population. -B +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
