Private Family Collection

***Born 1762; died 1830. King of Great Britain. February 6, 1787, in a Special Lodge, the Duke of Cumberland, Grand Master, made George IV, then Prince of Wales, a Freemason. The Duke of Cumberland died in 1790 and the Prince of Wales was elected Grand Master on November 24. Lord Moira became Pro Grand Master. In 1805 George was elected Grand Master of Scotland. He became King in 1811 and the Duke of Sussex was elected Grand Master of England, the King taking the title of Patron.

***King William IV (1765–1837) became a Freemason in 1786. The following year he was given the honorary title of Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of England, one of two governing bodies of Freemasonry in England in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century. In this portrait he is wearing the collar of the Master, or Ruler, of the Prince of Wales Lodge No.259, a position he held from 1827 to 1830. The Lodge was established in 1787 and was named after William’s brother, George (1762–1830), Prince of Wales, later George IV. Unlike other Masonic lodges in England, it has its own unique regalia, identified here by the ostrich feather crest of the Prince of Wales. The original of this portrait is owned by the Lodge.
