Sorry, I know its a little late but I have a question on a place called
the Odd Fellows Home, in Stuyvesant NY.... A Thomas Edwards had once
worked there. On his grave head stone is engraved with
three chain links with the intials F L T inside. What does F L T stand
for?? Any history of this meaning????
Thanks, Tom
Chittenango, NY
