Although, the First Independent Order of Odd Fellows was a fraternal benevolent order, probably founded in England early in the eighteenth century. The ancient guilds had degenerated into social and convivial clubs, and were replaced by workingmen's beneficial societies. They believed in love, truth, friendship, and benevolence. The first Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows was built in Philadelphia in December of 1821.
The Odd Fellows Home/Middletown Home was established in 1924.
