Well I didn't ....while researching St Paul's Anglican Church for one of my By Her Roots webisodes on Roots Television, I discovered that just about every British military or political leader during the 1749 founding of Halifax Nova Scotia was a Freemason. Of course this was the same in all the North American British Colonies but these were most of the earliest Masons oversees.
I also stumbled upon some Masonic Illuminati Conspiracy theories pertaining to the founding of Halifax, Nova Scotia and St Paul's Anglican Church in 1749 but also the devastating Halifax Explosion of 1917 (considered by some to have been a generated crises like 9/11) which actually provided some interesting concepts regarding the supposed purpose behind the One World Government and the decrease in the human population plots. They state that one of the main goals of Freemasonry has always been to infiltrate the Christian church from within by creating a false church. They also put forth that this was to take back the throne from the House of David and place on that throne one of their own from the line of Benjamin. The Merovingian/Templars purpose of the Crusades was supposedly to do just that and which is why there is so much importance put on DNA lineage in Genesis. If you want to read probably the most controversial article on Freemasonry and the Merovingian dynasty here it is. There is a disclaimer at the beginning which I endorse because it was obviously written by a staunch Catholic with very strong feelings but I agree with those who re-printed this article that it does indeed fill in a lot of gaps. The Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian World Through Monasticism.
I chose not to include these theories in this latest webisode and instead stuck to the facts. I had always intended to name the movers and shakers in Halifax at the time as my ancestor Peter Martin, a poor fisherman who was granted a lot of land and fishing rights, was in court with these officials for the last half of his life and then mysteriously died with no death record, no burial and no grave. Family History research brings out the curious detective in everyone so it is no surprise to us when we stumble upon a story that takes us to something provocative even controversial. I do choose though to keep my mind open, as more and more questioning minds out there are also doing. There are still though so many who prefer to believe that all our decision makers, our movers and shakers, hidden away behind closed doors, put the interests of the people they govern before their own. I choose, to placate my own curious mind, to look more closely at information that sheds light on areas that are shrouded in darkness like pulling your head out of the sand and looking into the brightness of a new day.
Here is my By Her Roots webisode #4
