Grand Lodge policies concerning access to membership lists

The information on this chart comes from various sources. If anyone has definite information for additions or changes on this chart, please send email tome at paul@bessel.org so I can update this chart.

Brother George Brooks of Florida surveyed Grand Lodge policies on allowing a new freemason to receive or see a written list of members, if the Craft Lodge allowed it.

He reported that only 5 Grand Lodges reported a policy on this, and the policy was to prohibit any lodge to give or show a membership list to anyone, including members of that lodge. They are:

Grand Lodge of Florida

Grand Lodge of Massachusetts

Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania

Grand Lodge of Virginia

Grand Lodge of Washington
