The Judah P Benjamin and Albert Pike connection is an interesting development.

Albert Pike and Judah P Benjamin were also Freemasons and many southern Masons had a connection to the KGC.
Is it a coincidence that during the escape after the fall of Richmond,that Benjamin,John C Breckinrige would come to Ocala,Florida by way of CSA blockade runner Hubbard Hart's riverboat,with the aid of CSA Capt J J Dickinson,to stay shortly with CSA Brig General Robert Bullock and CSA Capt John M Martin (member of CSA Congress)? All were Freemasons.
Also,after the War of Northern Aggression,Albert Pike traveled to many states in the south and west,including Florida.
Was pike's travels connected to the KGC?

As I wrote in another thread in this section, Albert Pike spent a lot of time in the Natchez, Mississippi area before he headed west. He was close buds with John C. Calhoun while there. Before the War of Northern Aggression, there were more millionaires per capital in the Natchez area than anywhere else in the country.

As a small side note..........there is a large James family contingent still living in a couple of nearby counties. Does that mean anything special.........I don't know. It's just another tidbit to consider.

There are a LOT of treasure stories in the Natchez area, also. Everything from pirate booty, to outlaw caches, hidden around the county ( Adams County ). Some are connected to the thieves from the Natchez Trace.......others connected to the river pirates and hidden in the Devil's Punchbowl. There were little known gang activity in the Catherine Creek area, south of Natchez. The REAL Phillip Nolan actually lived in Natchez back when the Spanish still owned the lands up to the western bank of the Mississippi River. THAT Phillip Nolan was not the one in the book. The Phillip Nolan in the book, Man Without a Country, was a pure fictional character invented by the author. Sad to say, there have been amateur treasure hunters who actually thought the book character was real and the Nolan in Natchez was he. Just one more excellent example of how NOT to get caught short on your research. One MUST verify leads and "break throughs" with independent sources.

There are so many stories about "Confederate Gold" and such. THERE WAS NO CONFEDERATE GOLD. The Confederate Government existed on credit, because they had no hard cash. Blockade runners made a lot of money, it's true -they were paid in various currencies. For example, when the CSS Alabama commerce raider was excavated, divers found Brazilian coins. While it is true that Jake Summerlin amassed a fortune by running cattle BEFORE and AFTER the war, but the Confederates paid him in useless paper currency, so he ended up hiding the cattle for the last 8 or 9 months of the war, so that they could sell the cattle in Cuba for GOLD. There are some treasure wrecks in the Keys, and perhaps two ships from the treasure fleet may have sunk north of St Augustine, but all the other stories have proven to be "tall tales". People really, really want to believe in this stuff, but it's just a pipe dream.

The Confederate government had the bankers in the south turn in their gold and silver coins.The CSA also had $15,000,000 in gold and silver by selling bonds to investment houses and speculators,plus the gold and silver from the New Orleans,Dahlonega,and Charlotte mints.
So yes, THOMMY,the CSA had gold-I do not know why you think different.

"Instructions"...? WHERE...?

 

[fronjm05]

Look for a DRIED UP old well on the Marshall Plantation; MAY be @ 2 million dollars worth of GOLD coins in it, at the bottom of the well; with skeletons of "slaves" on top of it all; as spirits guarding it (they buried it, and were killed... to hide "it").

These instructions above! Why not go get that gold out of there. A side note, I have enjoyed reading your posts thus far, I have been going through the KGC forums, there are tidbits of good info here if you can learn to skip over the arguments people have haha.

All one has to do is search the blood connections of the early pioneer families post Seminole Wars of Florida and there ties to the KGC and service to the CSA during the War of Northern Aggression,and the flight after the fall of Richmond,April 2,1865.One will find blood relatives,relations by mariage,a son in law and nephew of a US general and future US President that was a commandant at Fort King(Ocala),families from Abbeville,SC who aided in the escape of Benjamin,Breckinridge,and Wood from the Union,And Jefferson Davis's baggage train that made it to Archer,Florida,but Davis was captured in Georgia.
