Montgomery Lodge I.O.O.F Band

 

Photo from Images of America: Harrodsburg

Above is a photograph of one of several bands formed by members of local organizations in the early 1900s.  This group of 12 men and a young boy made up the band of the Harrodsburg I.O.O.F. (Independent Order of Odd Fellows), Montgomery Lodge, Number 18.  These were prominent businessmen and civic leaders, not musicians, but people had time then to become skilled enough to perform at concerts in the local bandstand.
