That's what I was thinking just couldn't find the buckle anywhere and I wasn't for sure what it meant

What would the "u" stand for? Maybe united?

I'm with Kuger on this. United Knights of Templar. Great find.

Thanks guys!! Do yall know what time period this is from?

 

[Bryanhashemi]

Late 1800's to early 1900's. I've found a similar buckle(not same fraternity) but close in looks.

This might piece might be associated with the Uniform rank of the Knights of Tabor fraternal group. Here is an image of a button from the Waterbury site and also some other informational links about the group.
