  • Anthony Sayer (c.1672 – 1741), on 24 June 1717 (the Feast of St. John the Baptist), at the formation of the first Premier Grand Lodge of England of freemasons at London, the members present elected as their first Grand Master "Anthony Sayer, Gentleman". He further served Grand Lodge as Senior Grand Warden under John Theophilus Desaguliers. Apart from being London's first, he is also the Grand Master "about whom less definite information is known than any of his successors in that high office." He seems to have fallen on difficult times, probably falling foul of the "South Sea Bubble", like many of his contemporaries. He petitioned Grand Lodge for charity in 1724, 1730, and 1741. He also twice received assistance from the Old Kings Arms lodge, which he served as tyler, or outer guard. His death is recorded in the minutes of that lodge in the month prior to 6 January 1741/2. Whatever his difficulties, he retained a great deal of respect amongst his brother Freemasons. The newspaper report of his funeral, in January 1741/2, states - "A few days since died, aged about 70 years, Mr. Anthony Sayer, who was Grand Master of the most Ancient and Honorable Society of Free and Accepted Masons in 1717. His corpse was followed by a great number of Gentlemen of that Honorable Society of the best Quality, from the Shakespears Head Tavern in the Piazza in Covent Garden and decently interr’d in Covent-Garden church."

Dai membri della massoneria presenti fu eletto come primo gran maestro della gran loggia Anthony Sayer. Nonostante la sua rilevante importanza all'interno della massoneria, Sayer ebbe sempre un animo umile e da gentiluomo. È il gran maestro di cui si hanno le informazioni più scarse.Nulla si sa della sua vita, se non che era spesso in ristrettezze economiche, tanto da essere costretto a richiedere degli aiuti economici alla gran loggia il 21 novembre 1724, il 21 aprile 1730 e il 17 aprile, 1741 e anche ricevendo degli aiuti dalla loggia Old King's Arms il 2 febbraio 1736 e il 3 marzo 1740. Fu nominato gran primo sorvegliante (Senior Grand Warden) nel 1719 dal gran maestro John Theophilus Desaguliers.Fu fatto un reclamo per un suo comportamento irregolare, di cui non si conosce nulla, nel dicembre 1730, dal quale fu completamente scagionato.Fu membro della Apple Tree Tavern, Charles Street e delle logge Fortitude and Old Cumberland No. 12, Diacono (Tyler) della Old King's Arms Lodge No. 28 La sua morte viene registrata nel verbale della loggia Old King's Arms , come verificatasi il 6 gennaio 1742 e fu seppellito nella chiesa di Covent Garden.
