M>I'm a MM and I'm into genealogy.  Many people find membership of
M>their ancestors in our organization facinating.  I have toyed with
M>the establishing of an index of Masonic membership from about 1940
M>on back.  The information on petitions and normal memberships
M>records would be excellant sources for people looking for their
M>ancestors.  The index itslef would only have names of lodges bu
M>city, town, whatever, the name of the person and maybe some dates.
M>If a person finds a name they're looking for thay can contact the
M>lodge or GL9if the lodge doesn't exist anymore) to get more
M>information if they have it.

M>Question:  Would Brethern object to this type of disclosure?


I can't for the life of me see why anyone would object.  It would
make a lot of geneology minded brothers lives a lot easier.
