The establishment of Estanislao Chapter 58 occurred on June 21, 1958. The inaugural meeting took place at the historic Tulloch Flour Mill in Knights Ferry under the direction of Noble Grand Humbug W.S. 'Walt' Hargrove. There were forty-eight founding and charter members present. Named after Yokut Chief Estanislao and sponsored by Matuca Chapter 1849, the charter was granted by Grand Council Decree. The territory was limited to Stanislaus County and in 1962 was extended to include Merced County. Today, Chapter 58 membership numbers in the thousands.

Referred to as Clampers, our principal objective is the preservation of our historical heritage and perpetuation of interest in our area. Monuments are erected to commemorate events in the chronicles of our past. Scholarships are awarded to history majors of local schools and charitable work is performed for local entities.

On this our golden anniversary we honor Knights Ferry, the citizens of the area, the Historic Tulloch Flour Mill, and California's longest covered bridge.
