Another Valley Charters                A KSA Chapter

HUNTINGTON (WV) has become the latest Scottish Rite Valley to Charter a Knights of St. Andrew Chapter. Ever expanding, the KSA is serving more Valleys and enhansing the Scottish Rite experience of Masons across the country.

Pictured above, the Knights of Youngstown (OH) Valley celebrate the issuance of their charter as presented by Active Member of the Supreme Council, Ill, Phillip R. Elliot, Jr.  

Huntington and Youngstown are two of most recently Chartered KSA Chapter... and there are more to come.

Knights of St. Andrew Information Center

Greetings and welcome to the National Knights of St Andrew (KSA) informational web site.  We hope that this collection of materials will be helpful to you, your Chapter and Valley. We are not trying to standardize the Knights across the country because you each have your own goals and agendas as well as different financial resources. We are striving to inform you of activities in other Valleys and Chapters.   If you see any section of these pages you would like us to enhance, correct and improve, please feel free to write us.  If any of the Valley/Chapter links are incorrect please contact us and we will correct the link.  Also, if you know of a Valley with a KSA Chapter that is not listed, please inform us.

October 4, 2024  there are 185 Chapters:

154 Chapters in 36 States within the Southern Masonic Jurisdiction

 31 Chapters in 9 States within the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction 

Mission of This Site

This site is intended to be an information exchange center for Knights and Chapter Officers of the Scottish Rite Knights of St. Andrew. The site is not financially sponsored by or directly linked to any particular Chapter but is intended to become a communications link for all Chapters. The Knights who have volunteered to create and maintain this site wish to promote the Knights of St. Andrew for better service to the Scottish Rite Valleys and the Charities supported by KSA Chapters.

You can make this a "Brag Site" for your Chapter. Share your projects, news and photos. Knowing what  Chapters are doing helps others with encouragement and project ideas. Send your information to the Liaison or Webmaster- links below and at the left.

Suggestions and recommendations are appreciated. Send news, photos, questions and comments to the Liaison or Webmaster- links in the left column

Only mobile-friendly websites are included in search results on mobile devices. Visit this site on your Smart Phone, iWatch, iPad or other mobile device.

It may be confusing to some that, across the country, our Chapters are known by several names. As "Black Cap" service organizations, most Chapters are known as KNIGHTS OF ST. ANDREW. However, each Chapter may select their own name, attire and functions to best serve their Scottish Rite Valley. Other names for the same service group include: Order of the Thistle, Scots Guards, Scottish Knights of St. Andrew, Scottish Rite Guards.... Regardless of the name adopted, we are a service group promoting the work of our individual Valleys. "A KSA Chapter by any other name will just as truly serve..."
