Clan / genealogy question

My Grandfather (Douglas Mackay) was involved in the O.S.C. back in the 1950's. He was a member of the Clan MacGregor Chapter, Frankford (Philadelphia neighborhood) PA. From what I understand from my Dad, this was a social organization that also provided some group benifits such as Life Insurance and local business discounts. Kind of like a Scottish Lions Club.

I have a few items that he left to me that include the O.S.C. By-Laws Booklet, a Certificate of Membership, an O.S.C. Past President medal w/ ribbon, a MacGregor Tartan Sash, and a few pictures.

He was also a member of the Perth Lodge of the Scottish Rite Freemasons. I have his original membership certificate from the early 1920's.
