100 Years of Spreading Friendship, Morality, and

Making Good Men Better Men!

In 1922, twenty-three merchants, tradesmen, and civic leaders took to Flanders Road twice a month to attend the Masonic Lodge in Riverhead.  Traveling during the winter months was arduous.  The cold weather and rutted roads re-inspired those dedicated Westhampton Masons to Petition the Grand Lodge of NY to Charter a new Lodge.

The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of New York issued a Warrant to those petitioning to form “Potunk” Masonic Lodge to be numbered as the One Thousand and seventy-first Lodge in the Jurisdiction of NY.  The area of influence the new Lodge would have was from the West at “The Mastics” to the East as “The Ponquogue Road” in Good Ground (later to be known as Hampton Bays), and to the North adjoining the borders of Riverhead Lodge.

The presentation of the Charter, dated May 6th, 1926, by the Grand Master on 5 June 1926, was long remembered by the over 400 brothers who were royally entertained at the famous Banquet Hall at the Howell House.
