WOW, great post!
Over the years, there have been many absorbstions and Mergers.
In years of Yore, many smaller Local Groups found they just couldnt make it and decided to merge which promigated their Lives as Viable Organization.
I know of at least two LXA Brothers who are trying catalog Badges and Pledge Pins of said Groups who merged with us.
It is a huge undertaking for sure.
But as life goes on, it gets harder and harder.
LXA requires that each Local gives a Badge and Pin for IHQ.
I cannot say how long this has gone on as I can only relate to My Local in 1965.
As I said, I have a Local Badge from Aburn that has been scanned and kept in a data bank.
Thanks to techzbt for showing these Badges.
