: : any info. on them/Indiana Magazine of History, Volume 61 pub. 1965 2nd article titled: Carrington and the Golden Circle Legend In Indiana During the Civil War. Will be having additional information in the next two weeks. Might check anything written on or by Henry B. Carrington, Colonel in military (Ohio adj. general, lawyer, politician, and writer) Appears that the Knights were promoted by a man named George W. L. Bickley, described in this article as a charlatan extraordinary and whimsical wanderer. Send e-mail and as I find information, will send. Am writing a paper that touches on Knights of the Golden Circle and the possibility that they were forerunners for the Klu Klux Klan.
