From the guide to the Knights of Malta legal claim, 1590, (L. Tom Perry Special Collections)
The group known as the Knights of Malta was established in Jerusalem in 1048. The Order's original duties were to care for sick and wounded Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land and to assist the poor. But soon after, their duties expanded to include the military conquest of non-Christians. The group has changed its name several times. Since 1961, it is known as the Sovereign Military Hospitaller Order of St. John of Jerusalem, of Rhodes and of Malta, or also, the Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem. In 1870, charters were issued from Scotland for the American Commandery, although it was not formally established until 1889.
