Consuls vision for the future of the Sub-Groups of The Augustan Society, Inc., is:

Sub-Groups of the Society are of three types:

  1. Senior Sub-Groups
  2. Lineage Groups
  3. Unrelated groups

If the third items seems odd, it is because several organizations with related goals have been given to the Society, and others are widely associated with the Society due to having had common management during the time of our Founder.

Senior Sub-Groups

The senior sub-groups are distinguished by having a variety of requirements for entry, which in all cases now includes membership in the Society in-good-standing, registration of arms with the Society, an entry fee, insignia, and annual dues.

Order of the Augustan Eagle

Noble Company of the Rose

Hereditary Order of Armigerous Augustans

This group was disbanded, and resurrection is not recommended.

Lineage Groups

The lineage groups are distinguished by the requirements for entry, which do not include Augustan membership, and which do include lifetime membership, insignia, and in most cases a proven descent.

Proposal: The Society should name Deans for each of the Lineage Groups, and to encourage them to organize sufficiently that they may contribute to Society programs with more than their entry fees.

Proposal: The Society should consider the creation of additional Lineage Groups in areas not presently served by another organization, and where there is sufficient member interest to suggest that the new group would be a productive part of the Society's programs.

Society of Descendants of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem

Society of Descendants of Ireland

Society of Descendants of Scotland

Society of Descendants of the Conquest

Order of Descendants of Ireland

Renamed Society of Descendants of Ireland.

Order of Descendants of Scotland

Renamed Society of Descendants of Scotland.

These two were merged and renamed Society of Descendants of the Conquest.
