The Strange Things Thread

The Case Of Brother 12

Edward Arthur Wilson name doesn't ring many bells but he was much better known as Brother XII or Brother 12. His father claimed that as a child in England he was visited by angels. In the South of France he claimed to have a vision in 1924. This I when he changed his name to Brother 12 and started The Aquarian Fpundation. He was a better con man than a religious leader and convince many reach people to donate Monet to his cause. He a.c. umalated enough money to buy an island off of British Columbia called De Courcy Island where he set up shop. The cult grew and Brother 12 developed quite a following. Trouble grew when Brother 12 claimed he was the reincarnation of the Egyptian God Of Osiris ... of course cheating on his wife and misusing funds did not help things either lol. Eventually in 1929 the Aquarian Foundation dissolved... but Brother 12 still had loyal followers. And found another lady called Madam Z He acummaleted large amounts of gold over 50 mason jars filled with gold. Again Brother 12 was a much better con man then a religious leader... but still things were strange. Again follower revolted and Britsh Columbia brought charges against him. At the trial he had followers faint on command to disrupt the trial... perhaps even stranger the judge for the trial went crazy. Brother 12 burnt all the buildings on the island he owned and left ... presumably with the gold. The gold has never been found. Supposedly he died in Swirzerland but no one believes that cause the death cerificare was signed by one of his followers. There is an account of him from his son being in San Fransisco

So who was Brother 12 ...ultimately in my mind just a con man who could prey on peoples fears and hopes a manipulator... a Jim Jones. Perhaps even more dangerous then that. The gold is perhaps still out there though i doubt it.

Thanks. Just stories i have collected from the net and various shows.

Odd thing about Brother 12 is he always had a fair number of peeps loyal to him no matter what. Despite all the treachery and deceit.
 
I had never heard of Edward Arthur Wilson, but it is clear that he had a talent that I lack: The ability to convince people to give him their money. 💰

Yea I lack that ability as well lol. With price of gold these days if there is anything left of his treasures someone will be very rich.

Perhaps I am being too cynical, but I picture his last girlfriend running off with the gold about half an hour after he died.

Lmao :laughhard: Me as well. Gold never sticks around long. You can put curses, traps or whatever somebody poor enough will come along to take it.

Brother 12 had that ability. Super scary levels of it too. I think he convinced the judge to go crazy so he could avoid jail.
 
Strange Thing - How come I can see when Mils is on the SSF but not when Kurch is?
 
I don't see the little green icon which shows that the member is online for either of you. I have no idea why.
 
Weird I see my my own and I see yours Mils but not Kurch.
Must have to do with our settings.
 
I do recall NOT selecting that I want to be hidden when online. Maybe that's why mine is visible.
 
"Settings" "Privacy" "Show Online Status." My box was unchecked so I checked it. Maybe now you'll see me.
