1917 I.O.O.F. Lodge 345, The lodge was rebuilt after the block was partially burned after a fire in 1913. You can see a garage on the corner. The gas pump is just on the other side of the car. A barbershop is two doors down.
The Yorktown Mt. Pleasant Historical Alliance and Museum occupies the space below the I.O.O.F. in downtown Yorktown. (2021) We want to thank the I.O.O.F for their generous support of the Alliance and Museum.
The stated purpose of the I.O.O.F. is: to improve and elevate the character of mankind by promoting the principles of friendship, love, truth, faith, hope, charity and universal justice.
