St. John's and Robert Tomlinson
editMackey is incorrect on two counts. The Robert Tomlinson who chartered the Lodge was the second Grand Master of the precursor to the current Grand Lodge of Massachusetts, and therefore it was not "chartered by a group besides the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts." Secondly, the GL of MA was constituted in 1792 by the merger of two GLs and took the earlier constitution date. Therefore, the Lodge was actually chartered by either the Massachusetts Grand Lodge or St. John's Grand Lodge; I don't have the dates handy to say which offhand.
