"The Daughters of Rebekah is a women's group associated with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.). The Rebekahs group was founded in 1851, making it the first women's auxiliary connected to any American fraternal order."

Today, Rebekah lodges continue to be active in community and charitable projects, with a creed "To live peaceably, do good unto all, as we have opportunity and especially to obey the Golden Rule, Whatsoever ye would that others should do unto you, do ye even so unto them." These beautiful pieces would be a welcome addition to a collection or for today's Daughters of Rebekah member. Please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions, thank you!
