Order of Saint Januarius - Structure of The Order

Structure of The Order

Originally the order had four principal officers whose duties were to administer its affairs:

  • Chancellor
  • Secretary
  • Treasurer
  • Master of Ceremonies

These duties were limited by a reform of August 17, 1827 to certain ceremonial roles at the installation of knights, and no successors were appointed to the then holders of these offices.
