The American Assassins were the branch of Assassins located in and around the United States.
The American Assassins existed since at least the early 16th century. In 1510, the Assassins in Florida welcomed the refugees Alonso Carlo and his adoptive son Miguel Ramón Carlo de Lugo, who had become enemies of the Templar-influenced Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León.[1]
Miguel Ramón was taken into the Assassin Order, and was sent in 1521 to stop De León from continuing his search to find the Fountain of Youth. Miguel halted De León, though De León was struck with poisoned arrows fired by several Assassins when he did not heed Miguel's warning.[1]
The American Assassins also became heavily involved in the American Revolution in the later half of the 18th century.[2]
In 1865, after the American Civil War, the Assassins hunted down and killed John Wilkes Booth after he assassinated President Abraham Lincoln.[3]
