Not really treasure related but in yalls research have you come across the 3 degree names or any ritual information about the Lone Star? It is said that the KGC was born out of this group.

They were a filibustering group led by John Quitman. They wanted to kick Spain out of Cuba. The Lone Star refers to the Cuban flag of Narciso López. We know there were three degrees based on the constitution and by-laws but we have no idea about any of the rituals, passwords, handshakes or names of the degrees. Texas Ranger Rip Ford was a member.

Anyone find any symbolism or ritual of this group besides their motto?
