Jeff:



I sent you a correction on this immediately after I sent it: Philip's last name was recorded as GOODLOE, but I mistyped it as Goodlove.



"Eva Goodloe Briscoe died 5 May 1924. Her father’s name was given as Philip Goodlove."



Jim, Thanks for setting me straight on that. I made the correction to the October 1st entry. Jeff



October 4, 1535: Augustinian friar and translator Myles Coverdale finishes the first complete English Bible, including both the Hebrew Bible and New Testament.[1]

Coverdale’s famous bible was printed in 1535, the same year Tyndale was confined at Vilvorde Castle.[2]



October 4, 1753

1753 William and Hannah Crawford purchase 64 acres of land from Elijah Teague, October 4, 1753, on branch of the Shenandoah River, called Cattail Run (present Jefferson County, West Virginia)[3]. Deed Book B (3?), page 134, Frederick Co., VA.[4] Standing in lot 1 with George Fairfax’s line, Crawford and Teague were both represented as being from the Colony of Virginia and county of Frederick at Winchester, Va. Witnesses to this deed were: Thomas Wood and Coriter R. Rutherford.[5]

At this time, 1753-1754, our William Crawford was living on his own plantation, on Cattail Run (present Jefferson County, West Virginia), with his wife Hannah and their three children, plus one daughter Ann (who was born to William by his first wife, Ann Stewart). William, at this time, about thiry-two years of age. He would of course, be expected to fight for his English Government, as war clouds were then hovering the colonies.



Wednesday October 4th, 1775

Left Mr. De Camp’s, lost my way several times, but got to V. Crawford’s in the evening.[6]



October 4, 1777

… a month later, last October 4, Brady—and Col. Crawford, too— fought in the Battle of Germantown, six miles from Philadelphia. Even though the Americans lost and had 1,000 men killed, Sam Brady was again conspicuous for his bravery and received a brevet promotion to captain. For the first time he came to an impressed Col. William Crawford’s attention. The courageous young man seemed to be leading a charmed life and was obviously approaching that status of “great warrior” that his mother had predicted.[7]



John Vance, 1754. (or 1746 according to his pension application). He was married in October 1773, by his uncle Col. Wm. Crawford in southwestern PA, to Nancy ?. John served in the Rev. war as a sargeant major and was wounded at Germantown. Both John and his wife recieved pensions for his REV war service (W. 6338). [8]John died February 8, 1827. The place of his death is uncertain from the pension file. Nancy filed for her widow's pension from Pendelton Co, not WVA. She died February 8, 1845. [9]



October 4, 1777



On 4 October Rueffer noted reports by residents of Wilmington, which may have been planted by Washington to hold those crown forces away from Philadelphia, and on the next day gives a report on the Germantown battle. “4 October - Many residents from this place, who have traveled inland fifteen to twenty miles, have brought dependable information. There are 8,000 to 10,000 rebel militia about ten miles from here, who are on the march from Lancaster to attack us. As a precaution all our pickets have been extended outward and all planks on the Brandywine Bridge have been loosened so that they can be taken up at first alarm, Toward evening we could already see large groups and complete regiments working steadily on defensive positions on the heights which are across from our camp. The approach of darkness prevented more exact observations.[10]



October 4, 1777



Colonel Musgrave, who was posted a little further to the rear with the 40th Regiment under orders to support the light infantry in case of attack, then advanced, But he saw the light infantry, continually charged by the enemy, withdraw quickly toward Germantown. Thus he was in danger of being cut off by the enemy columns deploying to the right and left, and so resolved to throw himself and the regiment into a stone house [11] on the right side of the street. Having accomplished this, he barricaded the doors and windows on the ground floor (the windows also had strong shutters).

On this floor he posted as many men as were necessary to hold back with the bayonet any who might gain an entrance to the house. With the rest of his men he went to the second floor, from which he fired with great effect upon the troops now completely surrounding the house. They, however, cannonaded the building with four 6-pounders and were determined to push the attack with all their strength. This and our especially courageous defense delayed their advance an hour and a half, Although cannon balls had torn open both outside doors, the bayonets kept the enemy from entering. In this attack they lost over one hundred men killed and one hundred and fifty wounded.

By this time the entire army was in motion and formed as follows: The 1st and 2nd Brigades, leaving the Abington road on their right, marched toward the road leading to the Frankford Creek bridge. The 3rd and 4th Brigades and the Hessian Leib Regiment advanced from their encampment and took position in Germantown, Von Minnigerode’s Grenadier Battalion remained at its post on the left to support the jagers, who were to be reinforced by von Linsing’s Grenadier Battalion from Philadelphia. Similarly, the English grenadier battalion advanced to strengthen/ the right wing. Von Donop’s Regiment marched a little to the front and to the right toward the town to maintain communication with the left wing and support the pickets of the 3rd and 4th Brigades on that side of Germantown and also the Leib Regiment and von Donop.[12][13][14]





October 4, 1777

Their killed and wounded, which are estimated at about eight hundred, are said to include several generals [15] and staff members. There are some forty officers among the three hundred and eighty prisoners. Von Linsing’s and the English battalions which had come from. Philadelphia to reinforce the army returned to the city, where the 23rd English Regiment and von Lengerke’s Grenadier Battalion had been stationed during their absence.

Although everything has remained quiet in Philadelphia, several inhabitants were arrested because they had aroused suspicion of being well disposed toward the enemy. Later it was announced in the city and in the country that everyone must surrender his arms within a definite time, those failing to do so and later found with arms in their possession being threatened with very severe.. punishment. We are told that a great quantity of arms has already been surrendered. [16]

John Godlove was born about 1781, probably in Pennsylvania, although Virginia is listed as his place of birth in the 1850 and 1860 censuses. John died in Washington County, Iowa, on October 4, 1864 and is buried in Riverside Cemetery. He was a farmer. [19]

1781 Washington formed from Westmoreland & Yohohengia CO.[21]



By 1781 the hatred between the Whites and the Indians was beyond words. The Indians were being swindled, murdered and driven from their land. And they were striking back with extraordinary ferocity -- killing, kidnapping and scalping men, women and children alike.

The white man’s intrusions across the Ohio River were the latest of many transgressions. As more whites crossed the Ohio River and extended their range into the Ohio Valley, the Indians knew it was only a matter of time until they would be driven from their homes. The Indians were intent on staying at their villages in Upper Sandusky and the more the Whites trespassed into the Ohio Valley, the more the Indians escalated efforts to turn them back. Becoming allies with the “Red Coats,” the Indians regularly sent the British shipments of white men’s scalps to demonstrate their grim triumphs.

In his book “That Dark and Bloody River,” Allan W. Echert quoted a letter sent to the King of England that accompanied a shipment of some 954 white scalps taken by the Indians. The letter explains how the Indians carefully mounted scalps on hoops and color-coded them for easy identification.

The 954 scalps in this particular shipment included 98 scalps taken from farmers killed in their houses. The farmers’ scalps were mounted on red hoops with a hoe drawn on them to mark their profession; 88 scalps taken from women were mounted on hoops with their hair braided in an Indian fashion to show they were mothers; 198 boys’ scalps of various ages were mounted on green hoops with a tear drawn in the middle; 211 girls’ scalps were mounted on green hoops with a hatchet, knife or club drawn on them to show the means of death; 29 infant scalps were mounted on small white hoops with a knife drawn on them to show they were ripped from their mother’s belly.

Indians generally received $5 for a scalp; a high price by the standards of the day.[22]

PETITION OF JOHN VANCE;To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislature of the State of Virginia,

Gentlemen, Your petitioner humbly sheweth that in the year seventy-six I turned out a Volunteer under Captain Stevenson as sargeant and Clerk to the Company and marched to Williamsburg, and then joined the eighth Virginia regiment commanded by Colonel Peter Milinsky and marched from there to Charles Town in South Carolina, and the Company I belonged to, with two more companys, was sent to assist at the Battle of Sulivans Island, from thence we marched to Sunsberry in Georgia under General Lee and remained there untill our time of service was out. I then returned to Fort Pit and then joined the 13th Virginia regiment commanded by Colonel Crawford in Captain Robert Bell's Company, and acted as Sargeant Major to the said regiment, and part of the said regiment was sent down to join the main army at Philadelphia under General Washington where I then acted as Agetant for said regiment for three months, was at the battle of Brandywine, and at the Battle of Germantown, wounded through the cheek with a bayonet, and sometime after the Battle General Milinsbuy gave me a very honorable discharge, which I took good care uf until my house was burned down by accident, and so lost it, and the wound I received in my leg still continues to run and so disables me to walk that I am not able to labour for my support, being now sixty-seven years of age, and as I served in our Revolutionary War for Liberty, I hope and trust that your honorable body will take my poor and distressed situation under your serious consideration, and grant me as a poor old soldier such relief as may support me in my old age. And you Petitioner as in duty bouned shall ever pray,

John Vance
