I've never contacted the Moose, but the Mason's have been a wealth of information for me. Unable to find the death date of my great grandfather, but knowing his son and grandson to have been Masons, I contacted the organization at the state level, by calling the local chapter and getting the phone #. I called, and,he had indeed been a member. The supplied his death date, which enabled me to get his death certificate, and as they say, "the rest is history"...so,call your local Moose and see what they have to say.
