The British Rite of the Templar Order was one of the autonomous factions comprising the Templar Order.

By the mid-18th century, under the leadership of Reginald Birch, it held a leading position among the various Templar Rites. Birch became aquainted with the Assassin, Edward Kenway in 1723 whose intention was to acquire Edward's journal containing his research on the First Civilisation sites including the Grand Temple. Two years later Birch orchestrated an attack on the Kenway household, where he hired several mercenaries to kill Edward Kenway and obtain the journal which they succeeded.

With the journal in Reginald's hand he began scouring the globe investigating several leads to the Precursor artefacts and sites. In 1738 Birch inducted Lawrence Washington into the Templar Order whom rose in the ranks and became a Master Templar; Reginald tasked Washington into locating the precursor sites to no avail. Unimpressed with his progress along with the newly established Colonial Brotherhood, Reginald sent another of his agents Colonel George Monro to further their efforts.

In 1750 Monro recruited Christopher Gist, a Frontiersman whom was tasked with exploring the west colonies as well as strengthening the Templars relations with the indigenous tribes in order to secure alliances and commercial lanes. At some point Gist encountered a young thief named Jack Weeks who attempted to pickpocket the explorer, despite Weeks being caught in the act Gist was impressed by his skill and audacious attitude and took him on as an errand boy and began tutoring him upon the suggestion of monro himself.

Eventually in 1751 Gist was inducted into the Templar Order, whom also believed that Weeks should be inducted himself to which Monro strongly agreed with and inducted Jack as well.
