S02E08 – Daniel Duke

Jesse James and the Lost Templar Treasure

The Knights Templar are a fascinating group from antiquity. The life of Jesse James is one that is shrouded in infamy and mystery. The two narratives have never crossed paths, until now. Lost Origins is pleased to present the exclusive first look at the work of Daniel Duke – researcher and author of Jesse James and the Lost Templar Treasure. Daniel’s research is built upon the alternative historical timeline of Jesse James having faked his death in 1882, only to live out a long and law-abiding Texan life until the of 93.

Duke’s research suggests that in addition to the staged death, Jesse James also made a surprising contribution to the legacy of the Knights Templar. After becoming a Free Mason, James worked to distribute lost Templar treasures across the United States through the use of coded maps that outline a mind-bending connection to the Old World, the mystic Kabbalah, King Solomon’s Temple of ancient Jerusalem, and much more.

“Having inadvertently fallen down one of the many hidden wells of esoteric knowledge dotted across the North American landscape, author Daniel J. Duke–the great-great-grandson of the outlaw Jesse James–weaves a wonderful tale of Southern intrigue and mysterious treasure. His familial connection enables him to explore the ancient mysteries within the Tree of Life and Veil templates and their connections over time to the Freemasons, the Knights Templar, the Knights of the Golden Circle, Francis Bacon and the Rosicrucians, and Sovereign Grand Commander Albert Pike. Where he travels next on his personal journey of discovery will be the key.” – William F. Mann, author of The Knights Templar in the New World
