Grand Lodge of Ohio History
The Grand Lodge of Ohio was formed on January 4-8, 1808 by five of the six masonic Lodges then meeting in Ohio. The convention was held in the statehouse at Chillicothe, and on January 7th, Rufus Putnam was elected Grand Master of Masons in Ohio.
The Grand Lodge of Ohio is governed by the Grand Master, and the line of officers that are either elected or appointed to those positions. Six members are elected into the Grand Line, and six are appointed by the Grand Master. The picture above is of the current Grand Lodge officers.
