This is a list of notable Freemasons. Freemasonry is a fraternal organisation that exists in a number of forms worldwide. Throughout history some members of the fraternity have made no secret of their involvement, while others have not made their membership public. In some cases, membership can only be proven by searching through the fraternity's records. Such records are most often kept at the individual lodge level, and may be lost due to fire, flood, deterioration, or simple carelessness. Grand Lodge governance may have shifted or reorganized, resulting in further loss of records on the member or the name, number, location or even existence of the lodge in question. In areas of the world where Masonry has been suppressed by governments, records of entire grand lodges have been destroyed. Because of this, masonic membership can sometimes be difficult to verify.

Standards of "proof" for those on this list may vary widely; some figures with no verified lodge affiliation are claimed as Masons if reliable sources give anecdotal evidence suggesting they were familiar with the "secret" signs and passes, but other figures are rejected over technical questions of regularity in the lodge that initiated them. Where available, specific lodge membership information is provided; where serious questions of verification have been noted by other sources, this is also indicated.

117. ^ "British Newspaper Archive". Coventry Evening Telegraph – Thursday 31 October 1940. 1940. "Deputy-Mayor Elect's Busy Public Life: A Pioneer in Motorcycle History. Next year's Deputy Mayor of Coventry, as already announced will be Councillor Alfred Robert Grindlay, J.P., the Chairman of Coventry Progressive Party. Few public men have had a busier life than Mr. Grindlay, the ramifications of whose work embrace practically every phase of civic, social, business, sporting and philanthropic activity. A Coventry man, Mr. Grindlay is principal of three well-known local firms, all of them pioneer industries in a city which has thrived because of its ability to keep in step with the times. He founded Coventry Motor Sundries Ltd. in 1911, the Grindlay (Coventry) Company Ltd. in 1918, and the Coventry Engineering Company in 1936. All motorcyclists of any experience will remember the famous Grindlay Peerless machine, which was turned out by the firm some years ago and established its reputation when a 400 cc model was the first in this country to do a 100 miles in an hour, thus winning a treasured trophy which has gone unwon for a number of years. At the same time was produced the Grindlay sidecar for motorcycles, this, too enjoyed considerable popularity. So far as his record of civic work goes, Mr. Grindlay has represented Greyfriars Ward without a break for 16 years, being elected in May, 1924, and in this connection he holds another record. Within a few months of his election he was appointed vice-chairman of the Waterworks and Fire Brigade committee, and, successively, he became vice-chairman and chairman then vice-chairman and chairman again, these offices extending over a period of 13 years. Nowadays it is customary for a chairman to retain the position for 3 years only. Helping the city's development: During this period Mr. Grindlay took a very prominent part in the big development schemes related to the city's water supply and, of its fire-fighting services. He was also chairman of the Libraries Committee for 2 years, and has served on various other committees throughout his period of membership of the City Council. Mr. Grindlay was appointed a magistrate in 1932 and regularly attends to his duties as a Justice. Of his political interests he says 'I have never taken a very active part in party politics. I am a Liberal in thought, and at present I am chairman of the non-political party, the Coventry Progressive Party.' Mr. Grindlay seems to specialise in the number of local association in which he has had a hand in founding. For instance he is one of Coventry Rotary Club's oldest members, having been associated with the club since the second year of its existence, while he was greatly interested in the old motoring clubs of the city, which years ago, played a very big part in entertainment and money-raising efforts for charity. It was his connection with the Coventry and Warwickshire Motor Club which first brought him into contact with the Coventry and Warwickshire Hospital, and led to his becoming the first and only chairman of the Coventry Carnival Committee. Work for the Hospital: First attending a meeting called to consider what the motor clubs could do to help the hospital by raising money from a public entertainment, Mr. Grindlay found himself chairman of the organisation at the end of the meeting. He also found himself committed to sponsoring the idea of a procession, which has since grown to gain for itself a world-wide reputation. It was from these small beginning that the Coventry Hospital Carnival, as we have known it in recent years, began. The first procession was a comparatively small affair, which had the old Radford aerodrome as its focal point, and since, by stages build up on extremely hard work, the procession has increased and been extended in scope until its record includes two Godiva processions, which attracted visitors to the city from all parts of the world. During this period the Carnival Committee has raised in the neighbourhood of £50,000 for the hospital. Mr. Grindlay's connection with the hospital was subsequently extended to his membership of the House Committee for some years, and also of the General Committee. Another of Mr. Grindlay's interests is his membership of the Council of the Coventry Chamber of Commerce. During the time he lived in Foleshill Mr. Grindlay was attached to the Station Street Free Methodist Church and occupied all the offices it was possible for a layman to hold. Sporting Interests: In the sporting world of Coventry, some years ago Mr. Grindlay was a prominent figure because of his active association in a playing capacity with the famous old Great Heath Association Football Club. Mr Grindlay is a member of Coventry Golf Club, while he is also an enthusiastic gardener, as anyone who has visited his home, Trinity House, Rectory Lane, Allesley, will agree. A Freemason Mr. Grindlay is also a member of the Trinity Lodge and also of Trinity Royal Arch Chapter. Most recently Mr. Grindlay has identified himself most closely with the establishment and organisation of Coventry's Auxiliary Fire Service, which now nearly 3 years old.
