Many of us have some family ancestry that has left us with skeletons in our closets? For Lindsay, that family ancestry included the Doan Gang. The Doan Gang was no small entity. There were at least 60 members of this gang and many of them were from the Doan family, hence the gang's name. Some went to prison, some escaped and some were executed. Despite being Quakers, they took part in a variety of crimes, including espionage during the American Revolution. This made them an enemy of America. There are a few legends and myths connected to the Doans, including stories of secret cave hideouts and hidden treasure. And some of those legends include some ghost stories. Suggested by Lindsay Doane-Large.
