		The Grand Lodge of Scotland honored this request and on December 1, 1755, granted the Lodge at Port Royal a charter, with the rather cumbersome name of "Kilwinning Port Royal Crosse Lodge." This was the first charter granted by the Grand Lodge or Scotland to a Lodge in the American colonies.
		When, in 1786, the newly-formed Grand Lodge of Virginia assigned precedence to existing Lodges, Port Royal Kilwinning Crosse Lodge was assigned the number 2, after the Norfolk Lodge, successor to the Royal Exchanged Lodge of Norfolk, which had received a warrant from the Grand Lodge of England in 1773 and a charter in 1741.
		In 1864 the Lodge room was broken into by a Yankee soldier, who stole the silver officers' jewels, originally a gift to the Lodge from Brother David Crosse, a member of Kilwinning Lodge in Scotland and the father of the John Crosse who wrote the letter requesting the original charter.
