About the Society: The Irish National Foresters Organisation/Friendly Society is a mutual aid society, which was established to help members in distress and the relatives of members who are deceased. It began in 1877 as a breakaway from the Order of Foresters, which was originally set up in England by medieval serfs. As they were not permitted to meet openly, their meetings were gathered in dense forest and they took names associated with forestry and applied them to their leaders (e.g. Chief Ranger, Assistant Chief Ranger, Woodward and Beadle). The I.N.F grew rapidly and soon became the largest friendly society in Ireland. It is non-sectarian, non-political and is not divided by class. It supported Irish nationalism and its constitution called for 'government for Ireland by the Irish people in accordance with Irish ideas and Irish aspirations'. The INF group are non-political and non-sectarian. The Society is also not based on class distinctions. <a href="http://museumvictoria.com.au/collections/items/250056/sash-irish-national-foresters-after-1877">http://museumvictoria.com.au/collections/items/250056/sash-irish-national-foresters-after-1877</a> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Unknown Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived State Library of New South Wales Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available State Library of New South Wales Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource ca 1930 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource State Library of New South Wales Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource Hyperlink; Black and white photograph; PDF Language A language of the resource English banner float floats Foresters fraternities fraternity friendly societies friendly society Ireland Irish Irish National Foresters Irish National Foresters Friendly Society nationalism nationalist New South Wales non-political non-sectarian NSW parade parades Patrick's Day procession processions Saint Patrick Saint Patrick's Day societies society St Patrick St Patrick's Day St. Patrick St. Patrick's Day street Sydney
