2 unusual facts about R. Swinburne Clymer


R. Swinburne Clymer

He succeeded Edward Holmes Brown (1868-1922) as Supreme Grand Master of the FRC (Fraternitas Rosae Crucis) in 1922, and served until his death in 1966, when he was succeeded by his son Emerson Myron Clymer (1909-1983).

A co-founder of FUDOFSI, which recognized the FRC (Fraternitas Rosae Crucis) - rather than the AMORC (Ancient Mystical Order Rosae Crucis) - as the authentic Rosicrucian organization, Clymer tried to rekindle FUDOFSI after the death of its leader Constant Chevillon (1880-1944) during World War II.
