Prince Hall (1748-1807) is the honored founder of the Prince Hall Masons.
Their mission is to disseminate charity; promote the spirit of brotherly love; teach and encourage the idea of peace, harmony and good will among the people and loyalty to the constituted authority of our state and country.
On March 6, 1775, John Batt of the Grand Lodge of Ireland initiated Prince Hall and 14 other free black men into Masonry in Army Lodge No. 44. When the British left Boston on March 17, 1776, Batt authorized Prince Hall and his brethren to form African Lodge No.1 on July 3, 1776. For nine years this Lodge enjoyed limited privileges as Masons, distressed that Prince Hall’s attempts to formally associate with Caucasian Grand Lodges were frustrated by racism.
In 1787, African Lodge received a Charter from the Grand Lodge of England and began the parallel lines of black and Caucasian Freemasonry which existed almost to the present day. Over time, Prince Hall and the original African Lodge established other Lodges. Prince Hall died in 1807.
