That would have been interesting, but the answer is unfortunately no. The Steve Miller who is Glenn's son was adopted when Glenn was in the AAF, so he had no real contact with his father and had no musical inheritance*. At one point he was employed as a gunsmith. (*) The musical genes run strongly in the family. Glenn's brother Herb was a trumpeter, his nephew John now leads Herb's orchestra, and niece Wynne is a dancer and entertainer.

Was Winston Churchill a freemason?
Yes, Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill was a Master Mason in the Studholme Lodge No. 1591 under the United Grand Lodge of England. He was initiated into the Lodge in 1901 at the age of 27. However, he felt that he could not keep up his committment to the Lodge due to his burgeoning political career and responsibilities so he resigned from his Mother (first) Lodge in 1912. However, it is rarely reported that he still remained active visiting as an "unattached" brother and was even involved in the Petition for the formation of 2 new Lodges in 1917 again in 1918. This included writing two letters to the Grand Secretary. His last recorded visit to a Lodge was in December 1928 to the Royal Naval Lodge No.29 as a guest of a Bro. Bernau. The rumour that he was a 33rd degree master mason is unfounded and totally untrue as he never joined the Ancient & Accepted Rite of Freemasonry.

Why was Glenn Miller's name left off of the songwriting credits for Room 1411 on the Benny Goodman album A Jazz Holiday?
"Room 1411" has always been shown to be written by Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman. It says so on the Brunswick 78 label from 1928 and when it was re-released in the 1940s. It should be noted that session work by a contributing musician *can be substantial enough to merit a co-writing credit, it's the actual copyright filing that reveals the originator of the material. To be completely sure, check www.loc.gov or harryfox.com to ascertain the songwriting and publishing assignment of the work. Glenn Miller was not, however, a "contributing musician" or session player but a member of the band, Benny Goodman's Boys. Here is a website that shows that Glenn Miller co-wrote the song: http://www.siue.edu/lovejoylibrary/musiclistening/NRJA/collections/NRJA_records/titles_p-r.htm Here is another website that shows that Glenn Miller was the composer: https://www.alibris.com/search/music/track/Room%201411%20%5BMiller%20Goodman%5D
How do I join Freemason in Nigeria?
Joining the Masons in Cameroon is the same as joining it anywhere. You need to know personally one or more members of the order and have their recommendation to join. You need to express your interest in joining the Lodge to people who are members of the Lodge already.
What does suffolk lodge mean?
In Britain, a Lodge is a small country home with only a few rooms, the equivalent of what would be a cabin or cottage in North America or a dacha in Russia. If you have one of these in Suffolk, it would be a Suffolk Lodge. Or, Lodge is the name of a group of Freemasons, so Suffolk Lodge could be (and in fact is) the name of one such group. Or, Lodge is often used to describe a home for the elderly or infirm, so one of these might be called Suffolk Lodge.
