Following is what's belived to be a complete listing. It is believed that during the gaps between these locations, the Society's materials were in storage.
===Villa Augusti===
Located in Daggett, California, a few miles east of Barstow, the Villa Augusti was a collection of buildings, formerly used as a home and chicken breeding station, and later as a drug manufacturing and sales location. Headquarters from _____ January 1999 through April 2007.
===Boron===
 
Headquarters from March 1998 through January 1999.
===Oroville===
 
Headquarters from June 1997 through March 1998.
===Sartori Avenue, Torrance===
 
Headquarters from _____ through June 1997.
===Cravens Avenue, Torrance===
The Cravens Avenue address was the Society's first public headquartersfrom November 1976 through _____. It contained the [[Library]], a few [[Museum]] items, office space, storage, the [[Chapel of the Rose]], and quite a bit of heraldic decoration. One rather suspects that a significant amount of material continuted to be stored at the San Pedro location.
===San Pedro===
The San Pedro location was the detached garage of [[Founder|Rodney Hartwell's]] home in that cityfrom July 1974 through November 1976. Because it provided isolation from his residence, it permitted volunteers to visit and contribute to the programs of the Society.
===Hermosa Beach===
The Hermosa Beach location was a very crowded spare room in the Hartwell home in that cityfrom February 1971 through January 1974. It just barely permitted of visitors, and one can imagine that storage also occupied other areas of the home.
===Faysmith Avenue, Torrance===
The Faysmith Avenue location was the boyhood home of our [[Founder]], which he shared with his mother. It was also the site of a house fire that erased much of the early history of the Society.It served as headquarters from April 1959 through November 1969.
