More totally unrelated trivia unrelated to the subject of Templars on Oak Island.
The "famed Shepherdess Parchment" never mentions the Templars, but mentions Poussin, which Baigent, Leigh, and Lincoln force fit his Acadia painting into their pulp HBHG unproven alternative cryptohistory, which others attempt attaching to their Templar voyage to Nova Scotia premise without any solid documented connection beyond imagination.
Umm, the Shepherdess Parchment also predates Baigent, Leigh, and Lincoln's 1982 book, and Marie's Stele was, at the least, created 76 years earlier.
And, it mentions David Teniers as well as Nicolas Poussin, Poussin having been known as "the keeper of secrets". The parchment also invokes "the horse of God", which appears in the Teniers painting that shows an exact location near Annapolis Basin!
I did notice the spelling of "Acadia" you used, does that mean you now agree that Poussin, with his "Et in Arcadia Ego" painting, was attempting to point that direction? Or perhaps you will edit it by putting the "R" back in that Poussin had the kneeling Shepherd pointing to.
But, I digress, as of yet the only part of the story I can show proof of is a Templar visit to Oak Island.
