If anyone connected with the Knights Templars actually were there to lie low for awhile and maybe hide some things, I hope some of it was records and/or other artifacts-those would be far more valuable in a historical sense than any gold, silver, etc, since they might explain some of the history of that group that has been open to speculation for centuries.
I worked for an engineer friend of mine until 2015, when he was taken by a brain tumor. One of the customers we did a lot of work for was a real estate attorney who was actually a member of a Knights Templar group that had a lot of interesting rituals and theories-he said he and all the members all claimed ancestors who had been Knights Templars-it sounded like Freemasons on ‘roids, but very interesting...
I am so glad to have someone of like thoughts
