∙ 10y agoFreemasonry was brought to the United States in the early to mid 1700s in the colonial period. Military units from Britain stationed in the American colonies often had members who travelled with a Lodge warrant which entitled them to initiate men wherever they went. In this way numbers of Americans were brought into the Craft who afterwards set up their own Lodges.
