In 1883 Irish immigrant Thomas Taylor set about realizing his dream of founding a Catholic benevolent society. Accompanied by two Jesuit priests of Chicago's Holy Family Parish, Taylor presented his plan for "Fraternalism in Action" to 42 men gathered in the parish hall. Each man paid dues of $1 to become a charter member of a society of that nature…seven of these pioneer members applied to the state of Illinois for a charter to establish an association for "the promotion of fraternity, unity, and true Christian charity; the establishment of a fund for the relief of the sick and the distressed members" and of a widow-and-orphans' benefit fund for the surviving dependents of a deceased parent.
…COF opened in many other states and grouped them into State Courts bearing the name of each state. In 1888 COF received a charter to open a court in Canada.
