Scope and content

ca. 1926. Architect's model of Masonic Home, Des Moines, WA. George Gove of Heath, Gove and Bell, Architect. At the turn of the century, state Masons acknowledged the need for a safe haven for aged Masons, wives, widows and widowed mothers. The first Masonic Home was located in Puyallup, but the need soon outgrew the facility. In 1924, 82 acres were purchased in Zenith (now Des Moines) for approximately $79,000. On June 21, 1927, the $750,000 facility was dedicated. The current address for the Home is 23660 Marine View Dr. S., Des Moines, WA. (TT 6/21/1927, pg. 5) (filed with Argentum)
