Affiliated with the Democratic Party, its first chapter was formed in Grant Parish, Louisiana and neighboring parishes, made up of many of the Confederate veterans who had participated in the Colfax massacre in April 1873. Chapters were soon founded in New Orleans and other areas of the state. Active during the later years of Reconstruction, it was one of the paramilitary groups described as "the military arm of the Democratic Party."
