All of our ties will start with Capt. Thomas Beale of the Orleans Riflemen. To avoid some confusion this is not Beall's Sharpshooter from Pennsylvania. You will find that of the 22 men that survived many have ties to Jean Lafitte, starting with his 2 lawyers Edward Livingston and John R Grymes. And of course the "connexions" run much deeper. I will give you what I have on the Orleans Riflemen at the end of my post. I have proven that this reachs into the family of Stephen Girard of Philadephia and the families of Ward and Sherman of the Lynchburg area. I have some documents that Ive ordered copies of but need to gather more. Please note this is the beginning of gathering the documents that cements the historical events that our unknown author has written as his version in the Beale Pamphet AKA Job Print. There is also a coinsidental historical event with one of our people that has written a code that was lost in a fire then rewritten and again was burned.
Also I am NOT saying in any way that I have solved the codes. They are still out there to be solve. I am also not saying that I have any remote clue as to any if it even exist type of buried treasure. I wish those who wish to find the gold and silver the best luck.
To a respected researcher Reb, the Shermans will tie into the war between the states. That Yankee General.
The other captive “RIFLES,” did not fare so well. They were taken to the BRITISH FLEET THEN LYING OFF SHIP ISLAND, and subjected for some time, as prisoners of war, to many hardships. We have mentioned among the names of those prisoners those of JOHN LYND and KENNY LAVERTY. LYND was a notary public, a quaint, sedate and solemn-visaged, but very shrewd and sagacious person. Upon the strength of his profession, having been connected with the administration of law, the British founded the humorous conceit, which has been recorded in several publications, that in the CAPTURE OF THE TWENTY-TWO MEMBERS OF BEALE’S RIFLES, they had actually taken PRISONERS ALL THE LAWYERS AND NOTARIES OF NEW ORLEANS. Such a capture would have deprived JACKSON of no less than five aids who were really the LEADING MEMBERS OF THE BAR OF THE CITY, to wit: EDWARD LIVINGSTON, JOHN R. GRYMES, ABNER L. DUNCAN, DEVEZAC and P.L.B. DUPLESSIS. (my note: Pierre LeBarbier Duplessis aka Peter, who was a U. S. Marshal, born in Philadelphia, PA, whose father by the same name, was a Frenchman and 33rd degree Mason in Philadelphia during the time of George Washington) LYND and LAVERTY, the latter on account of a most alarmingly treacherous brogue, and the former for his sanctimonious gravity, became frequent butts for the gibes of the British officers. Unfortunately, however, for their reputation as wits, they obtained but few victories inn their encountersPg 182
