Freemasonry was introduced from Britain to the United States and continues as a major secret society to the present day. It is a fraternal order that brings men together (and women through its auxiliaries) to gain friendship and opportunity for advancement and community progress. There has been a decline in members of the Freemasons since the 1960's.
