The Knight Masons arrived in the United States in May, 1936 when three Councils were chartered in North Carolina by the Grand Council in Ireland. The degrees of Knight Masonry were anciently styled the “Green Degrees”. In the 1960’s control of these degrees in the U.S. passed from the Grand Council in Ireland to a Grand Council in the U.S.A., which meets annually during the Allied Bodies Meeting in Washington, D.C.
Membership is by INVITATION ONLY and is predicated on membership in the Blue Lodge and a Royal Arch Chapter. There are two Councils in the State of Mississippi:
