Who was Thomas Dunckerley?
Thomas Dunckerley was born on 23 October 1724 and died on 19 November 1795. After a naval career, Dunckerley became a prominent freemason, being appointed Provincial Grand Master of several provinces, promoting Royal Arch masonry, introducing Mark Masonry to England, and instituting a national body for Templar masonry. This was made possible by an annuity of £100, rising to £800, which he obtained from King George III by claiming to be his illegitimate half brother.
