List of Freemasons

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Neodammerung (talk | contribs) at 18:02, 26 September 2008 (→C: added Lodge name to José Miguel Carrera's reference). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a list of notable Freemasons. Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation which exists in a number of forms worldwide. Throughout history some members of the fraternity have made no secret of their involvement, while others have not made their membership public. In some cases, membership can only be proven by searching through the fraternity's records. Such records are most often kept at the individual Lodge level, and may be lost due to fire, flood, deterioration, or simple carelessness. Grand Lodge governance may have shifted or reorganized, resulting in further loss of records on the member or the name, number, location or even existence of the Lodge in question. In areas of the world where Masonry has been suppressed by governments, records of entire Grand Lodges have been destroyed. Because of this, masonic membership can sometimes be difficult to verify.

Standards of "proof" for those on this list may vary widely; some figures with no verified Lodge affiliation are claimed as Masons if reliable sources give anecdotal evidence suggesting they were familiar with the "secret" signs and passes, but other figures are rejected over technical questions of irregularity in the Lodge that initiated them. Where available, specific Lodge membership information is provided; where serious questions of verification have been noted by other sources, this is indicated as well.

Note on flags: The Flags in this article are based upon where the individual is/was a Mason, and not their nationality or citizenship. For example, an individual who is/was a member of a Masonic lodge in the United States should be given the US flag, regardless of his citizenship in some other country. In cases where an individual is/was a Mason in multiple countries, please give all that apply. In choosing which flag to use with the entry, please attempt to be as historically accurate as possible.

Furthermore: "the masonic lodge, which Glauer had joined at Bursa in 1901, may have been a local cadre of the pre-revolutionary Secret Society of Union and Progress, founded on the model of Freemasonry by Salonican Turks to generate liberal consciousness during the repressive reign of the Sultan." (Goodrick-Clarke, op. cit., 139).
