Pauls Valley, Oklahoma

The Masonic Lodge of Pauls Valley is the oldest enterprise in Pauls Valley in continuous existence. Valley Lodge #6 was chartered on September 7th, 1875 by the Grand Lodge of Indian Territory and has met continuously since that time. Silas Rogers was the first Master of Valley Lodge #6.

Three members of Valley Lodge have gone on to be Grand Masters. John Coyle was a charter member of the Lodge and later served as Grand Master of Mason of the Grand Lodge of Indian Territory. B.A. McCurley and Dee Brown both served as Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of AF&AM of the State of Oklahoma. The Grand Lodge of Indian Territory and The Grand Lodge of Oklahoma Territory merged in 1909 and thus became the Grand Lodge, AF&AM of the State of Oklahoma. The Lodge now has 123 members and plans are underway for their 125th anniversary next year.

The building built in 1906 was restored in 1978 by the Historical Society and now houses the Chamber of Commerce.
