I find it difficult to read names that are inserted in blanks even though the writing is pretty clear. But it looks like the document is for Yocucpa Toierovoka. It has No. 4934 stamped on the bottom left and a red embossed stamping on the bottom center. On the right corner is a stamp that looks like Cymm$300. Can you please help me learn what this is?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8029355823264054932.post-12826805056103503202015-03-16T18:29:33.938-04:002015-03-16T18:29:33.938-04:00Good question.

In the edition of the database I had access to, there was a single deceased member where "Lodge City" was indicated as McKeesport (Lodge 171), but directories of RBO lodges show Lodge 171 was actually in Manifold, near Washington, Pa. Death claims for other members of that lodge were entered as Manifold, although there are others where Lodge 171 is identified as in Chicago, Illinois. HOWEVER, a 1923 directory of lodges indeed shows Lodge 171 as being in McKeesport, the Brotherhood of the Nativity of the Mother of God. Thanks for prompting me to look into it.<br /><br />McKeesport had many other fraternal organization lodges represented among the local Carpatho-Rusyn immigrants: Greek Catholic Union, United Societies of the USA (founded & HQ'd in McKeesport), Ruskij Narodnyj Sojuz - later Ukrainian National Association, United Russian Orthodox Brotherhood of America (UROBA), and perhaps others.Rich Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826555565508596486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8029355823264054932.post-27954355593316382222015-03-15T16:53:06.407-04:002015-03-15T16:53:06.407-04:00I noticed there was no listing for McKeesport in P...I noticed there was no listing for McKeesport in PA.?
