History of Estelle Taylor Court No. 2

Supreme Deputy Lady Clara V. Bens did not stop after Clare V. Bens Court No. 1 was established. She saw the need for a second Court of Amaranth. Estelle Taylor Court No. 2 was chartered on October 18, 1957. This Court was named after past Grand Matron Estelle Taylor. This honor was given to Sister Estelle Taylor for her foresight in bringing to Maryland the first Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star, under the Ancient Free and Accepted Masonic affiliation.

Throughout the years, Estelle Taylor Court No. 2 continues to follow the virtues of truth, faith, wisdom and charity. Estelle Taylor Court No. 2 was noted for their rainbow tea's and fashion shows. For many years, the first Tuesday in November was friendship and hospitality night, where the ladies invited family and friends to fellowship.
