My 92 year old mother, Irene Drew Worthington, has lived in Rushford most of her life.  I showed her the Rushford Masons picture and she was able to readily identify all five gentlemen. 

 

Top left is Will Bush who had a dental office upstairs in the building that is now the Rushford Library.  He lived in the large house that is on the corner of Lewellyn and Church Streets.

 

Top right is Howard Butler

 

Bottom left is Homer Thomas who owned a store on the old Brick Block which burned in 1921(?).  My mother believes Mr. Thomas was a jeweler.

 

Bottom right is Judge Lanning .  His home was the large white house next to the current post office. 

 

Bottom center is John Benjamin who was the local undertaker.
