The Order of St John is widely believed to have been started in the year 1080 in Jerusalem. This was during the First Crusade where St John members were known as the Knights Hospitallers (or Knights of St John). The Order of knights worked closely with the Knights Templar and provided assistance to injured soldiers and pilgrims during the Holy Wars. The Order of St John was later sanctioned by Her Majesty Queen Victoria and made a Royal Order of Chivalry with a Royal Charter. Even today, the Order of St John is one of the oldest and most well known organisations around the world.
I meant to say said from a passage "French knights formed the knight hospitalers".
I think you mean Knights Hospitaller. They were a Christian organization that began as an Amalfitan hospital founded in Jerusalem in approximately 1080 to provide care for poor, sick or injured pilgrims to the Holy Land. After the Western Christian conquest of Jerusalem in 1099 during the First Crusade, it became a religious/military order under its own charter, and was charged with the care and defence of the Holy Land.
Protection of all poor and weary pilgrims travelling from Europe to the Promised Land occurred after the First Crusade in the 11th century. Hughes de Payen, a Frankish knight, petitioned Bernard of Clairveaux to ask the Pope to create a military order. Originally it consisted of nine knights who took a pledge to give up their families and their wealth in order to become warrior monks. Their code was written by Bernard who modelled it after the Cistercian order's. Patrols around Jerusalem and the rest of Palestine were made by two knights at a time. Originally the name of the order was The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon.
Religious orders like the Knights Hospitallers provided medical care to pilgrims, knights, and soldiers during the Crusades. The Knights Templar were a military order that protected pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem. Both orders played a significant role in the military and humanitarian aspects of the Crusades.
Terence V. Powderly was the Grand Master Workman of the Knights of Labor, during the height of the movement. Originally called the Noble and Holy Order of the Knights of Labor, the words Noble and Holy Order were dropped in 1882 to avoid any resemblance to freemasonry.
