EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, members of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows proudly make their way down Market Street in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, South Wales, during an August summer day in 1910. Dressed in their distinctive costumes, the Odd Fellows, a masonic-style friendly society, don suits, bowler hats, and flat caps adorned with the Order's emblems. Some wear aprons and sashes, while others push prams or pull carts, adding to the lively scene. The townspeople of Haverfordship stand watching from the pavements on either side, their curiosity piqued by the procession. Children in hats and caps, some blinds drawn in the shops, and a baby in a pushchair add to the historical tableau. The Odd Fellows' steps and the cornmarket in the background provide context to this moment in time. The Independent Order of Odd Fellows, also known as the Odd Fellows or the Oddfellows, is an international fraternal organization that originated in England in the late 18th century. Its members, who follow the principles of friendship, love, and truth, have a rich history and continue to thrive in various communities around the world, including in Wales. This photograph is a testament to the vibrant history and traditions of Haverfordwest and the Odd Fellows, offering a glimpse into the past and the camaraderie that has endured for over two centuries.
