The Australian Natives’ Association was one of many friendly societies operating in Australia in the 19th century. The ANA was an exclusively Australian organisation established in Victoria on 24 April 1871 by a group of young, white Australian-born men. Meetings were open to all and membership did not involve rituals or regalia. Federation of the Australian colonies became an ANA goal in 1884. By 1910 membership had reached 28,844 and was broadly based across all occupations and social classes. Source https://www.nma.gov.au/defining-moments/resources/australian-natives-association 1.
