Quoting: SAHM Many of the members were politicians, judges/lawyers, and pastors. My relatives were the judges and pastors who had very close ties with some notable politicians. When I looked into the "KGC", it's said to be an imaginary group but it wasn't. It was VERY real and was connected in some way to "The Knights of Pythias." They were involved in some serious shit during the Civil War and many were even tried for treason. My third great grandfather, who was a pastor, used his church as a "castle" for KGC meetings and was accused of smuggling supplies for the Confederacy in crates of hymnal shipments. I'm almost positive he did and I know my relative judges did even more. Anyway, after what I've found and read, I'm thinking Booth wasn't brought to justice. My research led me to a verified will and testament and a sworn statement from one of the heirs. It blew my mind. This is probably old news to veteran conspiracy theorists, but it was new to me (and neat how I found it). I'm still researching, so, if anyone has info to share on this, I'd love to hear it. we've located him. move in Cum dignitatis infixae omnibus humanae familiae partibus et eorum jurum aequalium , quae abalienari non possunt , agnitio constituat et in orbe terrarum libertatis et justitiae et pacis fundamentum |
