Squid, still working on this. LOL68 moved from Ballymaclose to Roses Lane Ends in 1908.

At that time the W.M. was a Bro. John Cuddy and the D.M. was a Bro. William Bell - are either of these surnames familiar to you?

Hi Mark, these names don't mean anything to me unfortunately. The other sash is a Black 357 which I think may be Ahgalee? The only name around that area that I would be linked with would be Edward Stitt who married my Grandmother Georgie Armstrong, I hail from Ballymacash.

Just an update on this, I had an opportunity recently to show the picture to a prominent member of Ballinderry District. They are of the opinion it is a relation of a 'John Armstrong' who was originally from the Ballinderry area and moved to Ballymacash, either John himself or John's father perhaps? I am still waiting on a list of Past Masters to try and tie this connection down. What relation is John to yourself?

Not quite sure yet, possibly my Grandmother's Uncle, Brother of my g g/father Robert Armstrong from Moneybroom. I'm going to Derriaghy church on Fri and hope to get some information. I also plan to get to the records office at some time this year, not easy as I live in England. Thanks for your efforts.

Hi fmni,

I'm trying to ID the man in this picture, it was in amongst my Father's photo's.
It looks like he was WM of the Lodge, I'm wondering if there would be a list of WM's held somewhere, you mentioned the Stitt name which was the name of my Father's step dad who lived at Roses Lane ends, problem is the photo doesn't match any others we have. Sorry if this seems a bit of a mess.

Any info I have came from the 1911 census. It would make sense that they were married in Derriaghy church as that is where Robert & Sarah are buried, unfortunately their headstone was removed some years ago by one of their daughter's in law (who is now buried in the same grave) and I can't trace it.
Is there a place for old headstones?

I am planning to check the church records the next time I am home (live in England).

Thanks for your replys

hi, could any one help me get in touch with the above lodge as far as we know is ballinderry. as we found a photo of one of our ancestors wearing the sash also he was wearing the black sash no 357 which we think is agahlee. we would like to see if they have any info that could help us. we think the man may be g.g.grand dad thomas maxwellor g.grand dad armstrong.   
   

Hi Lauren,
I also have that photo and I think it is possibly Edward Stitt who was your G Grandfather Thomas Maxwell Armstrong's brother in Law married to my Grand Mother Georgina Armstrong, they lived in Ballinderry.
The Armstrong's are more likely to be associated with Knocknadona LOL 159 which they still are to this day.
