NOTE ON HISTORY
From Proceedings, Page 1896-192, Centenary History of Cincinnatus Lodge:
In 1808 there was another Lodge formed, the members of Cincinnatus and other Masons residing in Bethlehem, Loudon and Sandisfield uniting. This Lodge was named "Rising Sun," and held meetings for a few years in the towns of Sandisfield and Tyringham. In 1820 they asked permission to sit a part of the time in New Marlborough.
