I.O.O.F. Independent Order of Odd Fellows Patriarch Matriarch Sword
Returning swords can lead to heartbreak. In this case, it looks like generations have gone by.

Not something I would bother to do....these things are everywhere and they are not of great value, which is why the family disposed of it to begin with. People often comment that they'd like to give it back to whatever Lodge the person was in....they don't want them back, either, from what I understand.

I'm in Idaho too although 6 hours North.
Met another member recently from the Boise area, based on our low population here I'd say we might have a disproportionate number of Sword Hoarders, ahem, enthusiasts, in our state!

Jon Well we got three so far, pretty sure they're was at least one or two more in previous years. But we get so many "here and gone" members it's hard to say lol. Which member did you meet up with? I'm from Boise area, specifically Emmett, what town/city are you located in? |

I'm way up in Moscow.
Not sure if I'm supposed to "out"" anyone here, but there is a member just south of me in Lewiston that I have bought several swords from and I'm planning on meeting up with a guy from Kuna next month.

I'm actually on the Jersey coast, I'm not sure how it ended up here. I have emailed back and forth with his 3rd G-Niece in California. I found Percy through a Genealogy search which connected to his family tree.

Nice, college town lol! Not bad, at least some Idaho representation here. I swear when I joined 14 years ago I think I was the only one. |
