The Common Room / Re: R.A.O.B. or Buffaloes
« on: Saturday 12 February 11 19:30 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I have a medal dated 1897 presented to my GG Grandfather. This is an order of Merit and Honor of knighthood.
The Lodge is inscribed as the Royal Victoria Lodge, probably Stoke-on-Trent, North Staffordshire.
He was given a "buffaloes funeral" and I'm told that the officials from the Grand Lodge attended the funeral in 1920 but have been unable to find out what this means. His name is George Atkin(s).
Do you have any details about the Lodge that would help please.

Hi if anyone on here would like any info on the buffaloes just post on here and I will see what I can get for you (prob not a lot) but could lead you in the right direction .
What I do have are records of where lodge met the Lodge name and number,
so if you find some old jewels or papers from your family just ask.
