3100 BC: The earliest known Mesopotamian tablets were found at the site of Uruk in today’s southern Iraq. They were not found where they were written, or archived, but had been used to level a temple area known as Leana for later construction. Among these archaic tablets , the very earliest are designated, “Uruk IV”while the slightly later and developed texts and somewhat more abstracted signs are “Uruk III.”

By 2900 B.C. the patchwork of Mesopotamia’s thirty or so city states hardly comprised a cohesive empire. Each had its own King, its own patron God or Goddess, and a competing area of agriculture fields. Rival cities formed alliances to bolster their own independence or to conquer their neighbors. Distances between these cities were actually quite small. Because these agricultural lands were so valuable the cities were contantly at war with one another for the smallest of advantages.

• Even the Black Death, or bubonic plague (1348-1351), which carried off a third of Europe’s population, was put into the service of killing Jews. Before the Black Death swept Europe, it had hit Mongolia and the Islamic Empire. Mongols, Mohammedans, and Jews had all died together without anyone having thought of blaming the Jews. But to medieval man it did occur. [1] The bubonic plague wreaked destruction in the Near East Before spreading to Europe, wiping out a third or more of its population. Jews were often blamed for spreading the disease by poisoning wells and were often tortured until they confessed their complicity. Pope Clement IV moved to quash the absurd charges, blaming the scourge on the devil in a paple decree, but to no avail.

Sunday, August 13th, 1775.
Mr. Berwick was kind enough to let me ride his horse to Fort Pitt, where I am to deliver him to a certain Mr. John Meddison. Left Mr. V. Crawford’s and with him I left my watch, Buckles, Breast Buckles, Stock Buckle and silver buttons, with a paper directing how I would have them disposed of if death should happen to my lot, as everyone tells me that I am running a great risk of being killed by the Indians. I m not afraid of meeting with had usage from them. Got to Mr. John De Camp’s at night.

Fifth Regiment General Stevens Brigade, William Crawford was promoted to lieutenant-colonel. He served until August 14, 1776. He was promoted to colonel at Trenton, NJ, December 26, 1776, of the Seventh Regiment which he headed 1776-1778. It was raised largely by William Crawford in the district of West Augusta. It was accepted by Congress February 29, 1776 and was taken on the Continental Establishment June 17, 1776. It seems to have been attached to General Woodford’s Brigade during its entire term of service. The Regiment was nearly cut to pieces in the defeat at Brandywine. Evidently it was largely recruited after that date, as the rearrangement in September 1776. The Seventh Regiment alone of the first nine regiments maintained its separate existence, not being combined with any other. It was renumbered the Fifth Regiment under the following commands. Colonel William Dangerfleld, February 19, 1776 - August 13, 1776, resigned. Colonel William Crawford, August 14, 1776 - March 4, 1777, resigned. Colonel Alexander McClenhan, October 7, 1776 - May 13, 1778, resigned. Thirteenth Regiment 1776-1778. This was the fourth of the six regiments of October 1776. It was raised in West Augusta District, largely through the efforts of Colonel William Crawford of the Seventh Regiment. It formed part of Muhlenberg’s Brigade in September 1778, it was renumbered the Ninth Regiment. \

At Mount Yernon : " The great object for the accom-
plishment of which I wish to see the inland navigation of
the rivers Potomack and James improved and extended is
to connect the western territory with the Atlantic states.
All others with me are secondary ; though I am clearly of
opinion that it will greatly increase our commerce and be an
immense saving in the article of transportation and draft
cattle to the planters and farmers who are in a situation to
have the produce of their labor water-borne. ... I have
already subscribed five shares to the Potomack navigation ;
and enclosed I give you a power to put my name down for
five shares to that of James river." Washington to Edmund

August 13, 1792: Michael Spaid, born October 1, 1795, Married Margaret Godlove (Gottlieb )(born August 13, 1792) in 1816, daughter of George Godlove, (Gottlieb) German lineage, born in Hampshire county
August 13, 1813: Zachariah Connell came here a few years later. (Connellsville, after 1770) For a time he lived with the Crawfords on the New Haven side but in 1778 moved over to the Connellsville side, taking up a tract embracing the old borough limits and designated in the survey as "Mud Island." His first cabin stood a short distance from the river banks but he later built a stone house in West Fairview Avenue and reside there until his death in August 13, 1813. His body is buried just east of the city limits, surrounded by graves of a few relatives.

In 1816 he married Margaret Godlove (Gottlieb, in German) who was born in the same county as himself, August 13, 1792. She was a daughter of George Godlove and wife,


"The Spaid Family in America", author Abraham
Thompson Secrest. Published privately November 1920, Columbus, Ohio.
Christine Spaid, the oldest child of Michael and Margaret Spaid was two years old when she was brought by her parents to the wilderness of Ohio.
The writer's Grandmother, Christina Spaid Dyson, said her parents, Michael and Margaret Spaid, remembered their German as long as they lived, used it in talking to travelers and once in a while to each other when they desired to make a remark and did not want the children to know what they were saying, for they did not teach their children the language.
In 1819 the Spaids moved from Hampshire County to Guernsey County; in 1819 Francis son Joseph left Hardy County and the next record I have found for him was in Guernsey County. I think that Secrest or his source, researching the descendants of George Spaid,
mistakenly gave Michaels father-in-law the same first name as his father.]

Early Fall 1914: By early fall 1914, the activities and membership of the Buck Creek Church had so expanded that Chalice thought the time propitious to investigate the possibility of securing a resident pastor. He argued that his duties in the two churches, Hopkinton and Buck Creek had become very heavy and quite divergent. For progress to continue, he argued, it was necessary for each to have its own pastor. This also was an explicit recognition of what moswt of his parishioners already knew, that the two churches, despite sharing a single pastor, served two quite different communities. Although it served rural residents along with those from town, the aHopkinton church was still atown church whose community building effors would nee to be different from those of a church located in the open country. This had the result of pulling the single pastor in two directions. Although Chalice attempted to maintain a façade of neutrality, it was clear to all that his greater sympathies lay in the project he had begun in Buck Creek Church doubted whether they would be able to raise the necessary revenue to go it alone. Nonetheless, Chalice was able to convince church leaders that a complete canvassing of families in the Buck ‘Creek area would provide a relatively quick and effective way of determining the feasibility of the plan. To accomplish this, Chlice organized five teams, made up of ten men each, and carefully trained them in the art of canvassing. Considering the survey conducted earlier, the canvassers already knew that approximately 520 persons composing 130 families lived within the area served by the Buck Creek Church. These figures are roughly consistent with the populations of Union Township reported in the U.S. Censuses of 1910 and 1920. Of these, roughly 160 persons were under and 360 over the age of twenty one. Fourhundred and ten were Protestants of various denominations (including 100 who were already members of the Buck Creek Church), and 110 were Roman Catholics. The 4:1 ratio of Protestant to Catholic appears high, perhaps indicating that the survey excluded the almost completely Catholic southernmost tier of sections in Union Township and included the several sections in Hazel Green Township nearest to the Buck Creek neighborhood. Families were asked how much they were willing to pledge yearly for retaining a resident pastor. Existying church members pledged $1,040 and “outsiders and constituents” pledged $247. A similar canvass was conducted in Hopkinton with less beneficent results, but they were able to obtain pledges sufficient to increase the Hopkinton salary to $1,000.

Provided a way could be found to build a parsonage, the Buck Creek Church would have its own pastor and was prepared to pay a salary of almost $300 more than that offered in Hopkinton. Having accomplished thisw feat, raising the money to buy the sixteen acre plot of land admjoining the church from the “old bachelor” who lived there was relatively easy. Chalice had already organized a small group of men into an adult Bible class that met each Sunday and again for a “social time” once each month. The men in this group functioned as deacons in the church. Included were several of the wealthier farmers in the area. They agreed to advance the $5,000 needed to by the land and to build a new parsonage, with the understanding that the church membership would repay the debt. Within a year the debt had been retired.
Fall 1914: CREEK CALLS A RESIDENT PASTOR
By this time the duties of Buck Creek Church were becoming very heavy for the pastor, who was still performing all the duties of the Hopkinton charge. It was becoming a physical impossibility to give the people of Buck Creek Church adequate pastoral attention, because there were constantly greater demands upon hisa time in the town.
He distributed among the congregation some literature which told of the achievements of rural pastors of distinction in Iowa and MJichigan. In a campaign of education, he emphasized the need for a pastor to live among his people. The BUCK CREEK MESSENGER, a little papert which the pastor published, became his chief assistant. For it not only kept before the people of the community the activities of the church, but also made it possible for the pastor yto keep in touch with the non church going people of his parish, and created sentiment in favor of a resident pastor.
This publicity campaign had been kept up for some time, when the matter of a non-resident pastor was brought to an issue be the young folks ofv rhe church, who came to the pasytor with the request that he give thrm an evening service. This was impossible, and the pastor took up the matter with his District Superintendent, who, in turnb, laid the situation before the Offical Board of the Church, with the suggestion that they secure a resident pastor.
The difficulties, however, were great.
“We had better leave will enough alone.” The conservative element said “for we could never finhane a proposition like that.”
Even the pastor thought that there might be some truth in this, for up to this time there had always been a financial deficit at the end of the year. Apparently it hid been difficult to raise $400 a year. Those who were doubtful rechoned with out the young people of Buck Creek, for they remained persistent in their demands for an evening service, and finally offered to finance it themselves.
The pastor suggested that the whole community be canvassed in order to determine whether it would support such an undertaking. For this purpose five teams, made up of ten men each, were organized and carefully trained in the art of canvassing. The one hundred and thirty families among whom were one hundred and sixty persons under trwentyu one years of age, and three hundred and sixty persons under twenty one, represented fourhundred and ten Protestants of several denominations, and one hundred and ten Roman Catholics. They were carefully divided into groups of members, constituents and non-church attendants. Some objection was raised in regard to calling upon everybody in the community, but the pastor contended that all of these people were deriving benbefits from the church and should, therefore, be prepared to support it. Each of the teams was given a list headed in theis fashion:
NUMBER WHO WILL PAY FOR
TWO SERVICES ON SUNDAY
WITH RESIDENT PASTOR

NUMBER WHO WILL PAY FOR EVENING SERVICE ONLY

The canvassers themselves were the first to sign the lists. Three signed for $75 a year; for for $50; and three for $25, This was the result of the canvass:

Before Canvassing
4 members $100.00
96 members $100.00
Ladies’ Aid $100.00
Young People $50.00
Total $350.00

After Canvassing
100 members $1,040.00
Outsiders and Consituents 247.00
Total $1,287.00

The salary of the janitor and the expense for fuel were usually provided for out of the loose collections.
The same method was adopted in the town appointment. There an increase was secured from $800 to $1200. Before the canvass the circuit paid $1,200 and house in the country; making a total of $2,200.
Buck Creek Church was to have its own pastor! The officials of the church met and decided upon whom they should “call”. Imagine the surprise of their own pastor when they called upon himn and asked him to come on over to Buck Creek to live.
At first he was tempted to shun the task, because of his inefficiency, for much of his trime had been spent in city work, with the exception of a few months on the Canadian prairies for the Home Mission Board of Canada. But here came a call from the country! The pastor had always been impressed with the idea that the country people generally have been a bit neglected and needed men who would consecrate themselves to that partivular work.
In spite of much effort to persuade him against accepting, and so depriving his family of the advantages of town life, the pastor and his wife decided together to accept the call. It took some time for them to adjust themselves to the new surroundings and the new work; but it did not take the people of Buck Creek long to become accustomed to the new order of things.

A German regulation orders the confiscation of all radio sets possessed or owned by Jews. The radios are to be turned in at police stations.
August 13, 1942
An assistant to Eichmann, Rolf Gunther, answers Ahnert’s August 11 telex. As to the meaning of “adequate proportions” of children to be deported, Gunjhther specifies that the children “can be distributed little by little on the anticipated convoyus in the direction of Auschwitz. However, in no case must a transport made up exclusively of children be sent off.”

Soon afterward, a Franco-German meeting is held in the Paris offices of the Gestapo’s Jewish Affairs Department at 31 bis Avenue Foch. Taiking part in this working session are Dannecker; Rothke, who keeps the minutes of the meeting; and Leguay and his staff chief, Thomas Sautsx. (This will be Dannecker’s last official action in the Jewish Affairs Department; he being transferred and will continue his work in Bulgaria, Hungary, and norther Italy.)

Leguay describes the plan for the arrival of trains from the Vichy Zone on August 17, 26, and 29. (In fact they will arrive on August 25,29, and 30.) The Gestapo officers and Leguay agree on details of the children’s deportations; they will be mingles with adults on the trtansports in a maximum proportion of one child for each adult. The reason is doubtless simple, the SS wants French and German railway workers and any others who may see the trains to believe that the children are being dep;orted with their parents.

Dannecker and Rothke remind Leguay that 13 convoys should leave Drancy in August and 13 in September. No doubt they have been informed by Drancy that there were only three children among the 2,791 Jews who arrved from the Vichy Zone on August 7, 9, and 12; they suggest to Leguay that Jewish children now be delivered for deportation with adults. Anxious to receive trainloads from the Unoccupied Zpone as quickly as possible to fulfill the conoy schedule for September they ask Leguay to send those due for that monyth’s deprtations as early as the end of August. Leguay promises to do all that he can and to raise the matter immediately with Vichy. Further the
Germans suss to Leguay that Frnch authorities in the Ocupied Zone could turn over Jews found guilty of crimes or misdemeanortrs and that in the Vichy Zone thay could begin arresting and delivering Belgian and Dutch Jews.
August 13-14, 1942: Jews lacking Belgian nationality are seized in Antwerp and sent to the Malines camp.
