‘Masons in the American Revolution’

    

In New Jersey, Bergen250, Bergen County’s commemoration of the semiquincentennial anniversary of America’s Founding, will present Bro. Lee Justo next Wednesday in its Revolutionary War Roundtable program. Lee, who is at labor in Huguenot Lodge 46 in Westchester, will present “Masonic Brothers in the American Revolution.”

This will take place at 7 p.m. at 1 Bergen County Plaza (fourth floor) in Hackensack.

The county’s Speaker Series for 2025 thus far looks like it focuses on military aspects of the American Revolution, which makes sense because New Jersey was the site of the most battles in the war.

If you don’t know Lee, he is, among other things, the Grand Lodge of New York’s coordinator of our Lafayette bicentenary events.

‘Secret History of Huguenot Lodge’

    

The Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite Southern Jurisdiction maintains a monthly podcast titled The Tyler’s Place, and the episode posted this morning concerns historic Huguenot Lodge 46 in Westchester County. Host Maynard Edwards welcomes Lee Justo, who became the lodge’s historian by virtue of delving into long neglected Huguenot records and discovering an amazing past involving a number of giants of New York history, from the Delancey family to Samuel Seabury and more.

Click here to enjoy the twenty minutes of conversation.

This episode was prompted by Edwards’ viewing of Huguenot’s YouTube channel, where the brethren gradually reveal what they learn about their past as they discover it. Click here to see that.


The lodge will meet tomorrow night, with Deputy Grand Master Steven A. Rubin in attendance, to present the story of Freemasonry in Westchester during the Revolution.
