Administrative history
Eldorado Lodge No. 32 A.F. & A.M. was a masonic lodge in Wine Harbour/Port Hilford, Guysborough County, Nova Scotia that was established under a Scottish warrant shortly before Queen's Lodge No. 34 A.F. & A.M. was established in Sherbrooke in 1864. In the movement for the formation of the Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia in 1866, Eldorado Lodge took an active role and was represented by W. Bro. A. McLean at the Convention of Representatives from the Scottish Lodges in the Province, held at Halifax, 16 January 1866. In March of 1866 the Grand Lodge of Nova Scotia was formally organized and new warrants were issued. Eldorado was assigned No. 7, but was eventually renamed No. 32.
In 1910, Eldorado Lodge affiliated with Queen's Lodge and a number of Masons from Eldorado transferred membership to Queen's Lodge.
