I have removed a reference in the introduction to Kenneth Mackenzie being a founder member of the SRIA as being plain wrong. He was an early member but not a founder. --Justificatus (talk) 10:52, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have altered this to reflect the fact that the SRIA has led to the formation of other organisations, not just the SRICF (with which it is still in amity) and the SRIAm (with which it is not).--Justificatus (talk) 10:59, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Given that the SRIA is derived (as a kind of Daughter Order) from the Societas Rosicruciana in Scotia, should there not perhaps also be a link to a wikipage on this venerable and still-existing Order?

The SRIA is not derived from the SRIS. The SRIA is (purported to have) derived from a scottish Rosicrucian order which bore no relation to the SRIS. The modern organisation of the SRIS is in fact formed from the first college of the SRIA to be chartered in Edinburgh - so in actual fact it is the SRIS that derives from the SRIA not the other way round. Please see my remarks on "History." --Justificatus (talk) 10:44, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There is an article, but frankly, as they're both short, they should probably be combined. I'll ask on the Project page. MSJapan04:40, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
My apologies for the comment I made in 2006: evidently the Daughter relationship runs the other way; however it was based on all the information then available to the casually interested Internet user. Is there in fact any evidence for this purported order, or did the SRIA simply pop up in a typically Rosicrucian kind of way?
It's now 2020, and there has come to my attention a piece of information from the SRICF website, which states:-
Scotland’s Society is actually the oldest as Walter Spencer is recorded as having been initiated into the SRIS by Anthony Oneil Haye in 1857, and there are documents in the SRIA archives that show that both Robert Wentworth Little and William J. Hughan were initiated in 1866 & 1867 by Anthony O’Neal Haye. [...] The SRIA later felt the need to charter the current SRIS on October 24, 1873.
Which means there was already a pre-existent Rosicrucian Order in Scotland which was the source for the SRIA in England. But it must not have been a Masonic organisation, so the SRIA issued it with a charter so as to bring it within the Regular Masonic system. But it was evidently substantially the same body.
