General Info
When the United States purchased the two Territories of Florida from Spain in the year 1821 it gave the Supreme Council of the Southern Jurisdiction automatic jurisdiction over the new territories. The two territories were consolidated into the Territory of Florida in 1822 and together they would become the 27th State of the Union in 1845. Brother Edward Rutledge Ives is credited with the establishment of the first bodies in the Orient of Florida and our Supreme Council History, records a Lodge of Perfection; a Council of Princes of Jerusalem, and a Chapter of Rose Croix as being organized in the City of Alligator, Florida In compliance with petitions dated April 22 and 27, 1853. The name of the City of Alligator was changed to Lake City on January 15, 1859. Brother Ives was recognized as organizing the St. Johns Lodge of Perfection, a Council of Princes of Jerusalem, and a Chapter of Rose Croix, in Jacksonville, soon after the end of the War Between the States. On January 15, 1870 Illustrious Brother Ives passed away. Buried in the Oakland Cemetery of Lake City, his grave is marked with a monument with the emblem of the Double Eagle at the top and the Square and Compass beneath the lettering. In 1901, the one hundredth anniversary of the Southern Jurisdiction of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, charters were issued to the following bodies in the Orient of Florida: Alpha Lodge of Perfection No.6 at Gainesville; Tau Lodge of Perfection No. 7 at Tampa; Bruce Council of Kadosh No. 1 at Plant City; McLean Council of Kadosh No. 2 at Jacksonville; Tampa Consistory No. 1 at Plant City; and Florida Consistory No. 2 at Jacksonville. In the year 1919, the Supreme Council charted Venus Lodge of Perfection No. 12, to meet at Lake Worth, Florida. Two years later, in 1919, permanent charters were issued for the Akairous Chapter of the Rose Croix No. 6 at Lake Worth. In 1923, charters were issued for Menthra Council of Kadosh and Lake Worth Consistory, both to be located in Lake Worth. In the early mid-fifties, to comply with Supreme Council Statutes, all bodies in the Orient of Florida changes their names to the name of the city or town where they held their meetings.Company Rating
