You are exactly right, sir. I did a little research, and found that the Scots Charitable Society is the oldest charitable organization in the Western Hemisphere. It was founded in Boston, in 1657. My ancestor is listed as being a member in Boston, in 1657, so it would appear that he was one of the founding members. Thank you so much for the information; you've made my day!
