They say patience is a virtue, so I must be virtuous. For over twenty years I had been patiently waiting to access some of the local Masonic lodge records. Well, the wait paid off. One of the treasures was an old album of various Masons, who each in their own way had an impact on the area, as well as their descendants. Take for instance Morris Asher, whose family still has a major influence in Hollywood. His grandson, William Asher either directed or produced and sometimes both, such TV classics as “I Love Lucy” and “Bewitched.” From time to time we be exploring these Masons.
My Aunt was married to an Asher. This was in Kentucky. I’m 68, and the tale goes back some many years. Just saying.
