I guess what I'm trying to get after is, how/when did pinnings start?

Pinnings go back a long time. One story passed through ZTA is that one of our Founders was given a Pi Kappa Alpha pin by a potential suitor. She lost the pin, though. So that goes back to sometime around 1898.

I received a lavalier and pin from my now husband before we got engaged. I still treasure them both. His lavalier is now on my charm bracelet and I still wear his pin below my badge!
