From this thread: http://www.cassiopaea.org/forum/index.php?topic=809.0
Perhaps this will make a good starting point for you to answer your own questions. I found this by using the search function on the forum. And I am sure a great deal more information can be found using google, wikapedia and a number of other web sources. As it happens, I did ssee the documentary spoken of, above. It IS very interesting. As you research this, and post what you have learned, perhaps that would be a good time to ask for others to comment. Just a suggestion.

Recently there was a program on the history channel called Holy Grail in America.

n 1898, a Minnesota farmer clearing trees from his field uproots a large stone covered with mysterious runes. Now known as the Kensington Rune Stone, it details a journey of land acquisition and murder--in the year 1362. Thought by some to be a hoax, new evidence suggests it could be real, and a clue that the Knights Templar discovered America 100 years before Columbus, perhaps bringing with them history's greatest treasure...The Holy Grail. See how symbols on the Rune Stone match Templar ruins all over Europe. History tells us the Templar were massacred on Friday the 13th, but that a Templar fleet allegedly containing treasure was last seen off Scotland in the late 1300s. Stones with similar markings as the Rune stone have been found on islands across the Atlantic Ocean, as well as in Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. Is it possible the Templar were leaving clues to an incredible journey to the New World?

The two-hour documentary kicks off with an investigation into the authenticity of the Kensington Runestone. In tracing the possible origins of the stone, the program ultimately suggests that the Knights Templar may have discovered America well before Christopher Columbus and may have made a land claim in the process.
The program presents evidence that Columbus was related to the SinClair family who built the Rosslyn Chapel. Anyway, it is worth watching if you ever get the chance. There is lots of hard evidence, and if the Templars also founded the Freemasons, it would explain why most of the forefathers of America were members of the Freemasons.
The Templar story could be a hoax too, but its fun to think on. So, who got there first the Templars, or the Chinese? The world may never know.
