The Separation Act of 1848 gave the Turk Islands some autonomy from Bahama. Soon afterwards, Frederick Forth became the first president. After he was replaced in 1854, he founded this Free Mason’s Lodge. Initially it was called the Turks Islands Forth Lodge. This historic building is easy to find at the intersection of Front Street and Freemason Alley. Just look for the Freemasons’ unmistakable symbol: the letter G inside of a compass and square.
