George Robinson Elliott

Brother

(16 November 1873 - 1921)

Temple Lodge, No.33

At present we do not know a lot about Brother George Elliott.

Temple Lodge, No.33 records show that George R. Elliott, age 42, occupation: Mill Manager, made a Petition for Initiation which was received at the Regular Lodge meeting of 14 September 1914 and the following Investigating Committee appointed: Wor. Bros. William Dwyer and John H. Peterson and Bro. George H. Savage.

His application was balloted on and he was duly elected a member of Temple Lodge, No. 33 by Initiation.

He worked through the chairs and was Junior Warden of Temple Lodge, No.33 in 1920 and Senior Warden in 1921. He would likely have been Worshipful Master of the Lodge in 1922 had he not died in 1921.

Here is the information we have uncovered so far about Brother George R. Elliott. We will post more information on Brother Elliott as we discover it.
