Rebel - KGC,
Thanks for the response. It is something that I've been curious about. The man in the photo is an ancestor born during the Civil War. (His father died in the war.) Older people in the family that knew him and have since pasted away always said that he was a member of an organization that he wouldn't talk about. A great-aunt of mine remembered a group of men coming to him in the night and them going out to dig up an iron pot that no one knew that he had buried on the property. The men took away the contents but he never spoke of it. That incident would have been most likely between ww1 and ww2 so it would be very late for the KGC from what I know.
I'm curious if the hand gesture in these two photos are a known hand signal of any kind. Sorry for the poor quality but I don't have the originals.
