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.
