Chapter History
Peterstown Chapter #118, Order of Eastern Star, was chartered October 28, 1928 and was constituted October 3, 1928, with 30 charter members. In 2005, membership increased to our highest level when Silver Leaf #5 of Hinton merged with our chapter.
Many of the furnishings for the chapter room were built by a Past Worthy Patron, Merlin Rarick. Those items are the Star Point pedestals; the treasurer’s desk with padded foot bench; padded foot bench for the secretary’s desk; the registration table for the entry; the podium in the hallway; the podium in the hallway; and the storage cabinet in the anteroom. Our chapter is quite proud of the furnishings.
Trixie Martin served as both Instructor and Deputy Instructor for 15 years, and Jean Clark is our present Deputy Instructor.
