The klan of that era was never stronger than they were here in the north. Primarily centered on Illinois I believe.

A while back I found that my great grandmother’s uncle was in the Antrim County Klan here in Michigan right around that time.

Indiana. And it was in the 20's. But at it's height the Klan was as big in the North as it was in the South.

my mother said that there were klan people in the Southern Tier of NYS decades ago.....they burned a cross on top of this hill and my mom said that the local Knights of Columbus went up there and beat them up....have no idea of the verity of this story but my mom seemed to know a lot...

I have a stack of old newspapers from Jackson, Michigan. I was looking through it, and there were ads for a Sunday Klan outing at a park. Potluck, pie contests, games for children. Was a pretty mainstream event for the area. I was surprised.
