My grandfather was a Mason, my dad was a Mason, and I was a DeMolay, but
never joined a lodge. How does one get someone to introduce me to a lodge?

Look up your local masonic lodge and go over and speak to them, petition to
become a mason. That's it. 2 b 1 ask 1

Again Lance, you need to specify where you live.
I suggest that you go here first:

http://www.grandlodgeoftexas.org

At this site, you will find some neat stuff as
well as links to every grand lodge in the U.S.
Then contact that grand lodge and request a petition.

Lance,
I was in your shoes 2 months ago. Father , grandfather, De Molay, all
of it.
all you need to do is ASK a mason for a petition. It's that easy. You
can get your father or grandfather or any mason of 3rd degree or
above, who has known you for a year to sign one spot, but it will take
a member of the lodge you wish to petiton to sign the second spot.
We didn't think I knew a mason at 397 Rossville where I am a
candidate, but they went over their roster with me.A few names rang a
bell, but I wasn't sure. They invited me to meet with a few of the
members on Saturday mornings for a year for breakfast at Hardees in
our small town, if ther e was no other alternative. Luckily I found a
name on the list that I had casually done business with off and on
over the last 10 years who had only recetly received his 3rd degree.
Best wishes,
Bob

do a search for the grand lodge in your state it will have a list of lodges in your area with contact info then you can call them and get an application
or find out when they meet they have dinner before the meeting that is open to the public go in and talk to them if you join there lodge they will be your brothers so don't be shy
