Great report! In answer to your question about picture023.jpg, that's a Shriner's symbol.

Great! Thanks! I thought it might be, but I was not sure. There were many many markers with the Masons and (for the ladies) is it eastern star? I guess being a Mason or Shriner or OddFellows is a dying breed.

I'm sure some day there will be a question posted on a message board asking about this peculiar LoT symbol on a grave marker.

Also, one cool remnant of LA's past is the line of Palm trees through the cemetary. According to the historian in our group, the Red Line ran a car through the cemetary and had a regular stop along the palm tree route for those attending services at Rosedale. It was from what I gather a regular stop, but all the remains are the line of palms.

Perhaps not for long

The palm tree is an icon I would not be sad to see disappear. What a worthless piece of foliage

Masons for the men
Eastern Star for the ladies
DeMolay for boys 13-21
Jobs Daughters for girls 13-? - for the girls with Masonic ancestory
Rainbow for Girls for girls 12-? - for the girls without Masonic ancestory (though I knew many Rainbow girls WITH Masonic family members).
Shriners are for men, but I am not sure what the exact relationship was with Masonry

I was a very active member of DeMolay for many years. I was knighted, so you can call me Sir Kev.

There are different "paths" one can follow within Masonry if one chooses Scottish Rite and York Rite are the big ones, I believe. There are also related organizations within Masonry - sort of like clubs for masons. Shriners (Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine) is one, Eastern Star (which accepts men and women as members) is another.

This is about all I know, based on the placemats at the local masonic center. Because of school I haven't been too involved.
