The Independent Order of Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) was a fraternal, non-profit organization founded in 1843 in the United States. The group was also known as the Triple Link Fraternity, referring to the order's "Triple Links" symbol, alluding to its motto "Friendship, Love and Truth". They also had an affiliated group called the Daughters of Rebekah, also known as the Rebekahs, originally for women only. The North English lodge had members in both groups.
