THE WEBB BULLETIN BIOGRAPHY, NEWS, UPDATES & RECORDS

From the Administrator Dear Project Members,

I would like to thank Jay Webb for his informative and interesting article about Thomas Smith Webb in this issue of The Webb Bulletin. I had run across several “Webb lodges” in my research [one even in this issue’s “Repository.”], but until now I hadn’t understood their significance and for whom they were named. Thank you, Jay, for this great article on a fascinating Webb!

Family Tree DNA has announced some new pricing for their tests. The new price for the Y-DNA12 test is $49. As you know, this test is not usually detailed enough for our project, but this price could encourage new memberships. The Full mtDNASequence and Family Finder tests are now both $199 until further notice, and the Y-DNA37 + Full Sequence is $368 until further notice. FTDNA has said that these latter tests may go back to the original pricing at some point, but for now they are offering them at this reduced rate.

Looking back further, his great, great grandfather was John Webb, wife, Bethiah Adams, and still further back to his GGGG grandfather who was Christopher Webb, wife Hannah Scott of Braintree, and his GGGGG grandfather who was Christopher Webb, wife Humility Cooper.

Genius of American Freemasonry

Thomas Smith Webb [cont.]

“In 1797 Albany, at the age of 26, he authored his first book “The Freemason's Monitor or Illustrations of Masonry”, that ultimately had seven editions published. It brought him international fame among the Fraternal Order of Mason's and it became the standard of ritual exemplification for many Lodges through out early America.”

THE WEBB BULLETIN Page 2

Thomas Smith Webb was a Printer, Bookbinder, Author and Composer. He apprenticed in Boston with his father as a printer and bookbinder, and after completing his apprenticeship he moved to Keene, New Hampshire. In New Hampshire he started a bookstore and binder business. He lived there for a few years, when in 1790, at the age of 19, he joined the Fraternal Order of Freemasonry at “Rising Sun Lodge of Keene” with a special dispensation. He then moved to Albany, New York where he started a business manufacturing wallpaper with great success.

"The earliest account of the introduction of Masonry into the United States, is the history of a lodge organized in Rhode Island, in 1658, and the first lawful lodge of Masons ever convened in this jurisdiction was the one which met in Newport in 1749“ Thomas Smith Webb joined “Union Lodge #1 of Albany, New York.” He moved through the chairs and became its Worshipful Master, then helped form the “Temple Royal Arch Chapter” to become the High Priest.

In 1797 Albany, at the age of 26, he authored his first book “The Freemason's Monitor or Illustrations of Masonry”, that ultimately had seven editions published. It brought him international fame among the Fraternal Order of Mason's and it became the standard of ritual exemplification for many Lodges through out early America.

In October 1797, he married Martha/Patty Hopkins in Boston. The marriage is said to have produced five children. Three died young. Following the death of his wife perhaps in 1808, Webb then married her sister, Mehitable (Hitty) Hopkins, with whom he had four more children.

Thomas, now 28 years old, moved to Providence, Rhode Island in 1799. His reputation was well known, and soon after his arrival he was invited to join “St. John's Lodge #1 of Rhode Island”, and started a school of Masonic instruction. As a member of Rhode Island Lodge he attended Grand Lodge and on his first visit he was appointed a member of a committee to revise the Masonic Constitution.

Brother Thomas Smith Webb was elected Grand Master of Rhode Island in 1813 and 1814 and was nominated again in 1815 but declined. In 1814 a British man-of-war appeared off Newport, and in Providence, like other coastal cities, they were fearful of possible invasion. The State House in Providence called for volunteers to erect breastworks to protect the town, and Webb who was Grand Master at the time, called a special meeting of the Grand Lodge, instructing the brethren to bring shovels, spades or axe and one day's provisions. After closing the Lodge the brethren marched to Fox Hill and by sunset had erected 430 feet of breastworks, 10 feet wide, and 5 feet high, and gave it the name of Fort Hiram. The Governor confirmed this breastwork that evening. This was one of only two Masonic Forts ever erected in this country.

Brother Webb was invited to join Providence “Royal Arch Chapter” and was elected to High Priest from 1804 to 1814, and with others he organized the “General Grand Royal Arch Chapter of the United States” and guided the operation as Deputy Grand High Priest until his death on July 6th 1819.

The “General Grand Chapter” is now the oldest National York Rite Masonic body in America.


On one of his travels to the Midwest, Webb found that in Kentucky and Ohio the Grand Lodges had sole power to charter Royal Arch Chapters, but he was able to influence them to permit the formation of Grand Chapters that would be subservient only to the General Grand Chapter. During this same period, Webb’s untiring Masonic zeal accomplished the formation on August 11, 1802, of St. John’s Encampment of Knights Templar, now St. John’s Commandery No. 1 of Providence, the ranking body of all Templar organizations in America. Webb provided the ritual and ceremonial procedure of the Templar Orders and was elected its first Eminent Commander. He was elected annually until 1814 when he declined re-election. In 1805, with others, he organized the now Grand Commandery of Massachusetts and Rhode Island and presided therein until he retired in 1817. The achievement, which has been declared the crowning glory of Webb’s Masonic career, was the formation of the “Grand Encampment of Knights Templar of the United States” which he accomplished in 1816 in New York City. One of Freemasonry’s most dedicated workers passed with a record of accomplishment second to none, and a Lodge, a Council, and a Commandery bearing his name perpetuate his memory in Rhode Island. The Grand Lodge of Rhode Island erected a monument to the memory of Thomas Smith Webb at the North Burial Ground in Providence. Mr. Webb is regarded as the creator of the American Masonic system of Chapters and Encampments and the founder of the York Rite, which includes three bodies (Royal Arch, Council of Royal & Select Masters, and Knights Templar) that a Master Mason may join to obtain advanced degrees. Thomas Webb was also a poet and composer. He was also the first President of the Psallonian Society, and in addition, Mr. Webb was a founder of the Handel and Haydn Philharmonic Society. Masonic Lodges named in honor of Thomas Smith Webb. In Augusta, Georgia, Thomas Smith Webb was so respected they named there Lodge in his Honor. Originally charted as Webb Lodge #19, the lodge was created after a meeting of Social Lodge #18 that was held on November 5th, 1819. A petition was then sent to the Grand Lodge for creation of Webb Lodge, and in the petition it stated that James A. Black was recommended as Worshipful Master, Augustin Slaughter to be the Senior Warden, and J. W. Wilder to be the Junior Warden.

The first meeting was held on November 25, 1819 for organization of the lodge. It was not until September 21st, 1821 that the By-Laws were read for the first time. They were then adopted and confirmed on April 19th, 1822. Webb Lodge #19 was destroyed by fire many times, and the official history of Webb Lodge ends in 1968 when the present Masonic Temple was relocated on Wrightsboro Road, Augusta Georgia. At that time the Lodge number was then changed to Webb Lodge #166. Thomas Smith Webb Lodge #43, Cranston, Rhode Island. Thomas Smith Webb Chapter #16, Providence, Rhode Island. Thomas Smith Webb Commandery #51, Providence Rhode Island. Webb Lodge #24, Richmond, Indiana, that was chartered on October 27, 1823. Webb Lodge #182, Sigourney, Iowa. Webb Commandery #1, Lexington, Kentucky. Webb Chapter #14, Cleveland, Ohio, was organized in 1836. There was no greater Man of Freemasonry then Thomas Smith Webb, who stands a “Just and Upright Man among Men and Masons Forever”
