On a RootsWeb Message Board for Cook County, Illinois, a lady sent in a Directory of Secret Societies in Chicago, Illinois for the years of 1861-1864

Sons of Temperance; Conductor, Thos. Moulding.

I'm pretty sure that he belongs to my tree, as they were living near there, then. Have found out that a Conductor is one who gives Sunday Services in this Movement. I was told that this is what Thomas did on Sundays, on my visit to the area in 1984. This is a group of people who live in a Colony-like style. Don't know any more than that. I was pretty excited when I found that out.
