1881_First_Maccabee_Office_OM2.JPG (186701 bytes) "First Maccabee Office 1881." The Knights of the Maccabees was a fraternal and benevolent society founded in London, Ontario, Canada, in 1878. A substantial minority of its membership was in Michigan. The society provided life and disability insurance to ordinary citizens, provided they were white and did not make, sell, or consume alcohol.  The fraternal aspect of the organization ended in 1962, leaving an insurance company.
