Freemasonry in Bermuda

Source: Lodge Civil and Military No. 726, G.R.S.

Introduction

As a result of an unusual administrative history Bermuda is fortunate to have lodges holding charters issued by Scottish, English and Irish Grand Lodges.

The history of Freemasonry in Bermuda dates from the late eighteenth century. Bermuda boasts the earliest charter issued by the Grand Lodge of Scotland for a lodge outside of the British Isles and a charter from the United Grand Lodge of England from approximately the same time.

A state of open fraternal camaraderie exists between Freemasons in Bermuda and the side-by-side differences in ritual and membership are generally thought of as adding to the great and rich diversity of interest and understanding of the Craft.
