First National Organization to be founded on the Pacific Slope.
They were in states such as:
Cal, Colo., Ill., Washington, Pittsburg, NY, Wis., Minn., Ohio, Ks., Neb., Iowa,, Oregon, and some others.
Pretty far reaching in those times.
LXA and KDRho were the first Fraternitys to colonize in Cal. and AKL is the first to be Founded there.
Remember, LXA was founded in Boston in 1909!
Also know the history of LXA/TKN merger. There were actually more Chapters than that, but the times were very tough!
I would have to check up on Brother Joiner but he is also very knowledgeable for our History!
