Oddfellow
« on: Monday 27 April 09 12:41 BST (UK) »
My ur-ancestor, emigrated to NZ in 1840 and amongst other things spent his time setting up Oddfellow lodges, so I presume he was an Oddfellow before he left.  Does anyone have a clue where I could look to find out his providence?  I think he was a Worshipful Master.  He lived in Holborne.
