The Brotherhood of American Yeomen, founded in 1897, was one of a vast number of fraternal benefit assessment societies established toward the end of the 19th century. The lodges were called Homesteads, and there was a strong Christian element to the rituals and ceremonies, which also praised the Magna Carta and the English language. In 1917, the Yeomen changed its financial footing to assure greater stability, and in 1931 it transformed itself into the Mutual Life Insurance Company.
