The Common Room / Re: Ancient Order of Druids
« on: Sunday 26 September 21 14:38 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I am trying to find some more information about my great grandfather's involvement in the United Ancient Order of the Druids. I have a collar of deep red velvet decorated with goldwork embroidery. It has the words UAOD 868 and 'Presented to Bro J Penfold for past services' embroidered onto it. My great grandfather lived in Leytonstone in East London so I assume the number is the lodge number. Can anyone confirm this? I was also interested if anyone has any suggestions as to what he would have done to be given this honour. The notice of his funeral in the local paper in 1942/43 mentions he was a member of the United Ancient Order of the Druids and that they also sent flowers.
