Ladies of The Maccabees was a society which sprung up after the Civil War and was organized in the mid-1880s.. The Maccabees provided insurance as well as pleasant social gatherings. It was consolidated with The Knights of Maccabees.  Their fraternal activities ended in 1962 when they formed a life insurance company.
