Fraternal Orders
The first fraternal order of American origin was the
Improved Order of Red Men, established in 1773, which included in
its ritual many Native American customs. During the latter half of
the 19th century the number and size of fraternal orders in the U.S.
greatly increased. A mark of their influence was the adoption of the
lodge form of organization by a number of trade unions. A notable
fraternal association of the time, organized in behalf of workers,
was the Jefferson Lodge Number 1 of the Ancient Order of United
Workmen, organized in Meadville, Pennsylvania, in 1868. Many
other fraternal orders was further limited by the increasing
urbanization of American life that became especially marked during
the first decades of the 20th century. As cities and towns grew,
they offered a multitude of social activities with a consequent decline in
then need for the social functions performed by the fraternal
orders. Nonetheless, fraternal orders are still numerous and
have millions of members. Among the large orders, in addition to the
Freemasons and the Odd Fellows, are the Order of Eastern Star, the
Modern Woodmen of America, the Benevolent and Protective order of
Elks, the Knights of Pythias, and the Knights of Columbus.
