Taken from the historical research done b y DG Murray Glotzer in 1982 and listed in his directory of that year, we are able to list the DGs who have served in our area from 1915 to 1957 under the District numbers previously assigned to our area prior to 1957. Also included in this list is Walter D. Head, who later became a member of the Teaneck Club, but served as a Governor of another District while a member of the Montclair Club, and Walter Lindel, who later became a member of the Paterson Club, but served as a Governor in another District while a member of the Elmira, New York Club.

It is noted also that while the Paterson Club was chartered in 1913, the club does not appear to have been assigned to a District until 1915.
