Clarification on recent Prince Hall Masonry edits

edit

I've noticed your recent addition to the article on Prince Hall Masonry. I don't think it was clear as to which masonic body in California you were referring to. As I'm sure you know, there are multiple groups claiming to be the legitimate Prince Hall grand lodge in California, and it would probably be best to clarify. Pepe Oats (talk) 01:32, 5 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello Pepe, It took me a while to get clarification, but the Hannibal Lodge #1 was his first lodge, he then became WM of the Grand Lodge. This has been verified by this reply: My name is Louis L. Garrett, Sr. Worshipful Master Hannibal Lodge #1 in San Francisco. PGM James M Whitfield was a member on Hannibal Lodge # 1 in San Francisco and the Worshipful Master in the 1860's. Doing that time their were four Grand Masters out of Hannibal, This information came from the California Grand lodge history book. Exchange33 (talk) 17:03, 27 December 2019 (UTC)Exchange33Reply

Artwork question

edit

Hello, Exchange33! I just want to confirm that you are the original artist of the painting you uploaded, File:Jude Hall at the Powder House by RM Allen 2021.jpg. The notice you added implies that to be the case. I'm surprised to see the copyright holder of such a work release it under a creative commons license. --Midnightdreary (talk) 00:23, 7 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Yes I painted that and gifted it to the American Independence Museum. It is free for all to use. Thanks for asking. Exchange33 (talk) 14:06, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
