Grande Loge Haitianne de St. Jean des Orients D'autre-mer

The Grande Loge Haitianne de St. Jean des Orients D'autre-mer whose intent is to unite the many Haitian lodges within the United States is centered in the New York- New Jersey area. It was incorporated as a fraternal organization, non-profit (Non Profit Organization), Department of State of the State of New York May 3, 1983.


Haiti has played a significant role in the development of Freemasonry in the Americas, especially of the Haute Grades or Higher Degrees Scottish Rite, which was developed from the Rite of the Royal Secret of Estienne Morin, first established in the New World in Saint Domingue in the 1740s which was in a few decades to become the Republic of Haiti.
