Iowa - Patriarchs Militant

  • 759.png
The Patriarchs Militant is the uniformed branch of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, established in 1885. It represents the highest degree within the IOOF, focusing on ceremonial and fraternal activities. Patriarchs Militant lodges are referred to as Cantons. Sometimes the Patriarchs Militant is referred to as “the Canton”, due to the Canton being the name used instead of “Lodge”.

Fun Facts:
IOOF lodges use “tracing boards,” illustrated charts with symbols like the heart-in-hand and skull, to teach moral lessons during rituals, helping members visualize the order’s values of sincerity and justice.
