History notes:

The Sousa Band Fraternal Society was formed in 1944, in honor of bandleader John Philip Sousa, who had died the previous decade. The Society was open only to musicians who had made at least one tour with the band during its touring years, 1892-1932. It hosted reunions and celebratory dinners, but did not generally give concerts. The organization ceased to exist when the last member died in 1997.
