Biographical History

The Society of the Cincinnai was organized after the American Revolution by officers of the American army to perpetrate their wartime associations and as a form of protest for lack of pay. George Washington was elected first president and served from Dec., 1783 until his death in 1799. The concept of the society probably originated with Maj. Gen. Henry Knox.

From the description of Certificate of membership in the Society of the Cincinnati for Captain Thomas Edwards, 1784 May 5. (Maine Historical Society Library). WorldCat record id: 189835971
