November 26, 1426

On November 26th, 1426 the city of Strassburg askes for the assignment of the physician Master Balthasar.[1]

1430s

By the beginning of the 1430s… the Spanish church began to denounce “New Christians” as heretics and blasphemers, for many of the New Christians secretly practiced Judaism and, in the presumed safety of their homes, trasmitted it to their children. Outwardly Christian but often secretly Jewish, New Christians also incurred the wrath of the nobility because of their frequent social prominence as well as their influence upon the gonvernance of the realm. In addition, the general population despised them because of their success as financiers and their service as tax collectors.[2]

1432 Jews expelled from Savory.[3]

1435
The second sentence is incomplete, and the full sentence is not
available on Google Books. But here is what I was able to reconstruct:

'One also finds in these sources a Jew by the name of Gottlieb /
Gutleben, who first [appears in the sources (?)] as a Jew from
Mülhausen in 1409 and 1435...'

Ferner begegnet in den Quellen noch ein Jude namens Gottlieb bzw. Gutleben, der
erstmals 1409 und 1435 noch immer als Mülhauser Jude nachweisbar

Good luck with your research,

Philippe[4]
1438 Jews expelled from Mainz.[5]

1439 Jews expelled from Augsburg.[6]

November 25, 1741

On November 25, 1741, Andrew Harrison, (6th greatgrandfather) Thomas Chew and Martha, his wife, conveyed to Battaile Harrison, for fifteen pounds sterling, 200 acres of land in St. Mark’s Parish, Orange County, being part of a patent for 1000 acres granted to Martha Chew in September 1728, and by said Thomas Chew sold to said Andrew Harrison, as by deeds May 17 and 18, 1736.[7]

c1742

Ann (Crawford) born to Elizabeth Vance.[8]



1742

In the year of 1742, Ann Steward became the wife of our William Crawford….[9]

Ann Stewart lived at Summit Point. At this point, numerous questions may arise and doubtful statements and suggestions result from this newly discovered record and it may create a surprise in the historical circles, but it is true and above reproach.

The plantation of James and Ann (Crawford) Connell, was located on Braddock’s old road, about two miles north of the Youghiogheny River. Ann Connell’s latter years, she lived as a widow. Her husband James (brother to Zachariah), is said to have been born in 1742 and served in the Revolutionary War, though the information concerning James, has been very scarce. The children of James and Ann are as follows: John, James, William, Polly and Nancy.[10]



1742

The court records of old Frederick County, Virginia, reveal that Richard Stephenson (Stintson) and his family were living in that county in the year of 1742, when the first deed was dated. This is the earliest date on record of Richard Stephenson to be found to date. This is recorded in the court house at Winchester, Virginia.[11] Richard Stephenson became a partner in a bloomery near Charles Town, (West) Viginia, where the first iron west of the Blue Ridge was made.[12]

George Washington Journals, November 26, 1770:

` November 26, 1770:. Came to Killams on Georges Creek.

November 26th: 1770:.—Reached Killmnan’s, on George’s creek, where we met several families going over the mountain to live; some without having any places provided. ‘The snow upon the Allegheny mountains was near knee deep.



November 26, 1777

On the 26th of November the Hessian hospital ship had the misfortune to run into a stockade and was damaged considerably. These miserable hospital ships have killed many a soldier. Of five sick in my company only one has recovered. A hospital is now being built in Philadelphia. Many of those wounded at Red Bank have returned to their companies. On the other hand, Captain Wagner died on the 22nd of November and Lieutenant von Gottschall on the 25th, both having been severely wounded. Colonel von Donop had a negro boy about thirteen years old whom he bequeathed to your Lordship. Chaplain Koster of von Donop’s Regiment has given him instruction in the German language and also in the Christian religion. When the Chaplain was transferred to the grenadier brigade, he gave something for the boy’s maintenance and left him behind with the understanding that he should be sent to Hesse at the first opportunity. All the Hessian troops in General Howe’s army, noncommissioned officers as well as the rank and file, have received new shoes.[13]



To THE PRESIDENT OF CONGRESS -[14]



Head Quarters, November 26—27, 1777.



Sir: I was yesterday Morning honored with your Favors of the 22d Inst.[15] I wish the measures Congress have adopted may effec­tually suppress the disturbances in the Western Department.[16] Should they prove Successful and the Savages and wicked de­luded Inhabitants receive a severe check, it is probable they

will not be induced again to take a part against us, or at least for some considerable time. Colo. Crawford set out yesterday evening and will be with Congress, I expect, in the course of wo or three Days to take their Commands.

I was much obliged by the Foreign intelligence you were [eased to transmit me. It is agreeable and interesting and I ~artily wish there may be an early declaration of Hostilities between France and Britain. From these advices, things seem be getting in a proper train for it, and it is not easily to be received, that it can be much longer delayed. However, our expectations have not been answered in this instance, and they iay yet be held in suspence. The Political reasons that lead to elay, on the part of France, I do not perfectly understand: As Britain, her honor is lost in the Contest with us, and the most idignant insults will scarcely be able to draw her attention ‘om her present pursuits. The account of Mr. Lee having effected the purposes of his embassy at the Court of Berlin, is of great importance, if it be true. In such case, administration owever desirous they may be, will probably be disappointed in their schemes of further mercenary aids against us.[17]

I must take the liberty to request the decision of Congress on he case of the Nine First raised Virginia Regiments as early as circumstances will permit. If the plan proposed for reinlisting them is Judged expedient, one capital inducement to that end suggested by the Officers, will cease, if it is longer delayed. It is matter of considerable importance, and of which I wish to be satisfied as soon as possible. I should also be happy in their determination respecting the Marquis de laFayette.[18] He is more and more solicitous to be in actual service, and is pressing in his applications for a Command. I ventured before, to submit his Sentiments upon the measure, and I still fear a refusal will not only induce him to return in disgust, but may involve some unfavorable consequences. There are now some vacant Divisions in the Army, to one of which he may be appointed, if should be the pleasure of Congress.

I am convinced he possesses a large share of that Military ardor, which generally characterises the Nobility of his Country. He went to Jersey with Genl. Greene and I find he has not been inactive there. This you will perceive by the following Extract from a letter just received from Genl Greene.



By a Letter from Geni. Howe[19] to General Burgoyne which passed thro’ my hands, he hinted that liberty might probably be granted for the Prisoners to embark at Rhode Island or some part of the sound. This Indulgence appearing to me inadmis.. sible, I immediately wrote to Geni. Heath to prevent him giv­ing the least countenance to the measure in case it should be requested, and also to the Council of Massachusetts State and Genl.Gates,lesthe shouldextend his applications to them. The reasons I am persuaded will at once occur to Congress for my conduct in this instance, as well as GenI. Howe’s; and I have been induced to mention it here on a supposition that Genl.

Burgoyne may address them on the subject. If the embarka­tion is confined to Boston, it is likely that it will not take place before some time in the Spring, or at least till towards the end of February, whereas if it were allowed at either of the other places, it might be made this Month or the beginning of next and the Troops arrive in Britain by the Month of January. A circumstance of great importance to us, as the moment they get there, the most scrupulous and virtuous observance of the Con­vention, will Justify the Ministry in placing them in Garrison and sending others out to reinforce Geni. Howe, or upon any other expedition they may think proper to undertake against us. Besides, compelling their Transports to perform a long coasting voyage, at a tempestuous season, may bring on the loss of many and be the means of deferring the embarkation for a long time.

I must request you to transmit me a Number of blank Com­missions as soon as you have an opportunity to do it. There are several vacancies yet to fill, and the officers entitled to them are anxious to be appointed. The Commissions I want should be under your signature and not Mr. Hancock’s. I mention this, lest you should send any of the latter that might remain. Those signed by you will be competent to all cases. Those by Mr. Hancock only to such as happened during his Presidency and of those I now have some.[20]



November 26, 1861

A convention in Wheeling in western Virginia votes to secede from Virginia and create a new state called West Virginia[21]

November 26, 1862: Dr. William McKinnon Goodlove (1st cousin, 3 times removed) and the 57th Ohio Volunteer Infantry at the Tallahatchie March, November 26-December 13.[22]

November 26-27, 1863: William McKinnon Goodlove (1st cousin, 3 times removed) and the 57th Ohio Volunteer Infantry Pursuitto Graysville November 26-27, 1863.[23]

Sat. November 26[24], 1864

Cloudy commenced raining at 2 pm

Was received at 3. Capt Nott came to regiment

At night from home



Captain Knott of Company H bore the brunt of many jokes as the weary members of the 24th gathered around their campfires to make coffee. After being wounded, Knott had succeeded in escaping the Rebel onslaught by hiding in a dirty crevice on the creek bank. ‘the confederates often passed his hiding place but never saw him. The standard joke was that the Rebels in their hast departure were “unable to tell which was dirt and which was Knott.” Knott was indeed lucky since the prisons to which most of the regiments’s captives were taken were truly equal to that suffered at by any prisoners during the war. Private George W. Palmer, a member of Companmy I, after his capture at Cedar Creek, was placed first in Libby Prison and later in the open enclosure known as Salisbury Prisonl. Palmer preferred Libby because it, at least, had a building and, located on the James River, the sanitary conditions were much better than Salisbury Prison. At Libby rations consisted of a piece of corn bread almost every day, but at Salisbury the prisoners were gradually starved to death. Three small slces of corn bread and two small bowls of rice soup were served each twenty days, fifteen of which were fast days. Palmer weighed about 220 pounds when he was captured, but he weighted only 70 pounds when he was released. [25]



November 26, 1864: Salisbury Prison Camp, Salisbury, NC

Ancestor Job Kirby is still alive…

Salisbury Union Prison, Salisbury, NC. Faced with death from starvation, the Union prisoners became desperate: on 26 November thousands of them rushed the prison gates in a futile bid for freedom. The guards cut them down with a volley musketry and point blank artillery fire, "killing," the commander of the guard noted, "between forty and fifty." After this single blast, the officer assured his superious, "everything then quieted down." For the prisoners, the dying continued, and in December another 1164 succumbed.[26]



November 26, 1903

Wm. Goodlove and family spent Thanksgiving with his daughter, Mrs. Dr. Gray, of Anamosa.[27]

October 1940 to January 1941

The deaths of people badly cared for, undernourished, and exposed to the elements during the rigorous winters of 1940, 1941 and 1942, were in fact deliberate assassinations. The Vichy government, “anti-France”, in the words of Dr. J. Weil, whose work on concentration camps is considered authoritative, has shown itself guilty of these crimes. What other name can be given, for example, to the mortality in the camp of Gurs? There were 15 deaths in October, 1940; 180 in November; 270 in December; 140 in January, 1941…

At Gurs on November 26, 1940, Julius Gottlieb, born December 24, 1852 from Ebernburg, died.

• Julius Gottlieb, born November 24, 1862 in Ebernburg. Resided Altenbamberg . Deportation:

• 1940, Gurs. Date of death: November 26,1940, Gurs (last known whereabouts.)[28]

Also at Gurs on March 23, 1941 Johanna Gottlieb born May 24, 1859, from Ebernburg, died.[29]



November 26, 1940

The Germans begin construction of a Jewish ghetto in Warsaw, Poland. [30]

I Get Emails!



Jeff,



Thank you for the information.

Ewald is the most reliable source I've found.

He was a brilliant soldier and doesn't get half the credit he deserves.



>>Here is the information on the artillery you requested. Let me >>know if you need anything else. Not sure about the “Grenadiers >>putting on their caps upon reaching the Fort”.



CANNON:



Ewald's count seems to be the one most quoted. SIX 3 pdr. Battalion guns, TWO 6 pdr. cannon and TWO English Howitzers, making a grand total of TEN cannon total.



This is the other mystery of the battle I have been researching.

That of the "missing" cannon which supposedly never made it back across the river to Philadelphia.



The burial ground where those who died on the retreat was searched by order of Gen. Washington. Later, Frank Stewart, who recovered the cannon displayed at the fort, searched Big Timber Creek for them but found nothing.



I am working to get a Ground Penetrating Radar survey of the burial ground to put the matter to rest.



GRENADIER CAPS:



Their was an erroneous mention in, 40 Minutes By the Delaware, by Lee Patrick Anderson, about the "Jaegers" putting on their iron mounted caps upon reaching Fort Mercer.



Since Jaegers didn't wear "caps" this would mean the Grenadiers carried their caps on the march and put them on upon reaching the Fort. This is more for reenacting purposes than research.

Any small tidbit like that helps us to better portray the average Hessian soldier of the time.



I believe Mr. Anderson took much of his first hand account of the battle from Ewald.



>>I live near Chicago.



>>Also, I was thinking that they could do a reconstruction of the >>face using the skull and see if the face matches the painting of >>Von Donop. Of course DNA would be the best and most >>conclusive method of knowing for sure if the skull is Von >>Donop’s or not.



I have done my own overlay of an existing portrait of the Count with the skull and it's a fairly good match although an actual reconstruction would be best AND a DNA test with one of his direct descendents.



Alas, Carl von Donop has not returned my emails.



There was another direct ancestor of the Count living in Washington, DC who would have been very interested in my research, but he passed away a few years ago.



And Rutgers doesn't care to verify the authenticity of its relic.

So I guess the skull (whomever it is) shall remain in a cardboard box for the time being.



I will endeavor to seek more information regarding Rev. Schroeder and his account.



>>Are you aware of the microfilm out there somewhere of all the >>Hessian regimental records? If so, do you know where I could find >>it?



I will ask my Hessian compatriots and let you know.



Regards

Bob

Bob, Have you checked the FTDNA Surname Project? They might have something for Von Donop already going.



Jeff
