This study examines a select group of Lazarites who served in the American or French Royal forces during the Guerre d’Amérique (1778-1783) and thus were potentially eligible to become original members in the Society of the Cincinnati. This study further reviews the establishment of the Society of the Cincinnati in 1783 by veteran officers of the Continental Army in America with a special emphasis on the original Society in France (1784- 1792), before it was disbanded during the French Revolution. There are several interesting parallels between the modern Order of St Lazarus and the reconstituted modern Society of the Cincinnati of France.
