      Okay, in terms of the last century, the last Masonic president was Gerald Ford. Makes sense that voluntary fraternal organizations would peak at mid-century and then start dwindling because of changing social mores. 1960s/1970s probably pivot point.

          Sidebar: Bob Dole was a Mason, and back in 1996 I got to listen to a long recitation of Dole-related Masonic conspiracy theories from a guy sitting next to me on a plane. I was in law school and he saw I was reading a legal text. Never brought a law book on a plane ever again.

          This reminds me of a ride to law school with a sovereign citizen Uber driver. Did you know that the font on tombstones *must* be in all caps because... Never mind. It’s too stupid.

          That's a great fun fact about Gerald Ford

          around two-thirds of my father's male classmates in high school (class of 53) became masons, including my dad. only one of my classmates from high school did (class of 79).
