[5] Poindexter served as secretary to Thomas Forsyth Hunt, who authored How to Choose a Farm: With a Discussion of American Lands,[6] as well as The Cereals of America.

[7] He would serve as a Virginia delegate to the Association of American Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations Convention.

[11] The group met every two weeks at 421 North Albany Street, where Poindexter roomed.

[11] Poindexter felt the group should serve the cultural and social needs of the black community and not be an elite secret society.

[10] In December 1905, Poindexter organized a meeting of students which included Murray, Ogle, Morgan T. Phillips, Chapman, Kelley, Callis, Tompkins, and Tandy.

[9] In his absence at a meeting the fraternity idea was pushed for a vote by Murray and was seconded by Robert H Ogle.

[14] One month later, in January 1907, Poindexter resigned from the fraternity when he took a new job in Hampton, Virginia.

[17] Euguene Kinkle Jones who joined the group in October 1906 was given the title of a founder in 1952, while James Morton was removed because he was not a member of the school.
