Just out of curiousity, was wondering if anyone here knows if there have been any Masonics in our family lineages, any of the Livingston or MacLea lines Here in the Seattle area we have at least half a dozen Scottish Rite Masonic centers and a few of them were of course holding dinners the other night in celebration of Robert Burn's Birthday Thanks, Suzanne

Jerry, Had the pleasure to visit this lodge some years ago and was given a "token" (small penny type object) and it bears the lodge name and No and the crest of the lodge showing Dr. Livingstone. Tommy
