Seventh Florida Masonic Lodge









The Grand Lodge of Georgia chartered Florida’s seventh Masonic Lodge on March 8, 1824 and it was Montgomery Lodge #30 which met in St. Augustine.
The dates of chartering indicate that we had two Masonic Lodges at that time working in St. Augustine, Florida.
One was a Spanish speaking lodge and the other an English speaking lodge.
The records do not tell us when Montgomery Lodge #30 went defunct but it would have been before 1830, when the Grand Lodge of Florida was organized.
