Taken directly from my copy of Baird's Manual:
First Men's Fraternity: (undisputed of course) Phi Beta Kappa 1776
First Women's Fraternities (three by category):
Alpha Delta Pi (the Adelphean Society) 1851 - The first sisterhood.
Pi Beta Phi (I.C. Sorosis) 1867 - first organization of college women established as a national college fraternity.
Kappa Alpha Theta 1870 - first Greek-letter society for women.
Hope that clears some things up!
