Dear Jeff,



It was so nice to meet you last Sunday at M's party. I think I know someone who can translate the material you gave me. She does this professionally and I will contact her to see if she is available. If so, I'll give you her email address and you can communicate directly with her. She has worked at the Yiddish Book Center and is fluent in Yiddish as well as many other languages.



Best regards,



L





L, I was my pleasure in meeting you at the party. Thank you for taking the time to contact someone who would be able to translate this work of Abraham Baer Gottlober. It has been about one year since I started this project and it has been difficult to find someone who could translate what seems to be Russian Yiddish. I don't know if J has told you but this was written by the ancestor of someone that I have a DNA match with, therefore we have a common ancestor.

This DNA is a rare type called the Cohen Modal Haplotype. Much has been written about this DNA and it is very exciting to find an author who also would have had the same DNA and might shed light on what life was like a long time ago. I have learned so much in past year and I have been blessed with those who have helped me in this journey. I look forward to hearing from you. Jeff Goodlove





In a message dated 12/9/2010 4:26:05 P.M. Central Standard Time,

Hello again, dear Jeff. Below is my correspondence with L who, as you can see, is happy to be of help. I'll drop off the copy of your material for her on Saturday.

Good luck and keep me updated on your progress.

L



L, Thank you for taking the time to help. It is deeply appreciated. I will let you know how things go and perhaps soon I can send you a translation! Jeff Goodlove

This Day…

December 1095: In December 1095 the Jewish communities of northern France wrote to their co-religionists in Germany to warn them that the Crusading movement was likely to cause trouble to their race. There were reports of a massacre of the Jews at Rouen. It is unlikely that such a massacre in fact occurred; but the Jews were sufficiently alarmed for Peter the Hermit to bring off a successful stroke of business. Hinting, no doubt, that otherwise he might find it difficult to restrain his followers, he obtained from the French Jews letters of introduction to the Jewish communities throughout Europe, calling upon them to welcome him and to supply him and his army with all the provisions that he might require.[1]

About the same time Godfrey of Bourillon, Duke of Lower Lorraine, began his preparations to start out on the Crusade. A rumor ran round the province that he had vowed before he left to avenge the death of Christ with the blood of the Jews. The terror the Jews of the Rhineland induced Kalonymos, chief Rabbi of Mainz, to write to Godfrey’s overlord, the emperor Henry IV, who had always shown himself a friend to their race, to urge him to forbid the persecution. At the same time, to be on the safe side, the Jewish communities of Mainz and Cologne each offered the Duke the sum of five hundred pieces of silver. Henry wrote to his chief vassals, lay and ecclesiastic, to bid them guarantee the safety of all the Jews on their lands. Godfrey, having already succeeded in his blackmail, answered that nothing was further from his thoughts than persecution, and gladly gave the requested guarantee.[2]



December 10, 1777

Abstracts of Old Virginia Wills: John Vance, of Yohogania County in Virginia, dated Dec. 10, 1777, attested by William Crawford[3], Benjamin Wells, Samuel Hecks; proved Yohog. Co. March 23, 1778: Bneficiaries, wife Margaret, sons David, William (land on waters of Raccoon Creek joining Crohan's line) Moses; daughters Mary, Elizabeth.[4]



December 10, 1777

Another theory that has been suggested is that after the death of Margaret, Joseph Howard Sr. may have no longer needed to keep Eleanor's birth secret. However, Eleanor was never mentioned in his will written December 10, 1777 (after the death of his wife Margaret and shortly before Eleanor's marriage to John) or in the disposition of his estate. Therefore it appears unlikely that this theory has merit.



Also, it could be argued that if she learned of the content of Joseph Howard Sr.'s December 1777 will and that she was not included, this could have been her motivation for declaring it on the marriage license.



In light of the evidence found which applies to both Eleanor McKinnon and Eleanor Howard and the fact that no evidence found contradict the assumption that Eleanor McKinnon are the same, it is a reasonable conclusion that they are in fact the same person.


Unfortunately, the above still leaves many questions open such as when and by whom were they married, what happened between 1778 and when they arrived in Hamilton County, Ohio in 1795, why William had the middle name Beal, etc. But, a s anyone experienced in research knows, all questions are rarely answered.[5]



December 10, 1778

1793 - December 10 - By act of the General Assembly, the town of Cynthiana was established on the east side of the South Fork of Licking opposite the mouth of Gray's Run, on land of Robert Harrison in Bourbon County.

December 10, 1793: Acts of the Second General Assembly of Kentucky in 1793. An act to establish a town, on the lands of Robert Harrison, in the county of Bourbon, was approved December 10, 1793. Said town to be established by the name of Cynthiana and the property thereof vested in Benjamin Harrison (a representative in the legislature from Bourbon County) Morgan Van Matrte, Jeramiah Robinson, John Wall, Sr and Henry Coleman, trusatees; a majority of them directed to sell lots in the 100 acre tract, Robert Harrison to issue deeds in fee.

The Town was laid out in half acre lots, the purchaser was required, within four years of purchase, to have built a house no smaller than 16 X 18 feet, house to have a masonry chimney. If these conditions were not met, the trustees were empowered to resell the lot for the best price and turn the money over to the town.[8]

By an act of the same assembly, Harrison County was formed from parents of Bourbon and Scott Counties and named for, in honor of, Benjamin Harrison, chairman of the board of trustees. Cyntiana was made the County Seat and named in honor of Cynthia and Anna, daughters of Robert Harrison, who gave the County Court Square. The square originally extended from the first cross over (later named Pike Street), To the second cross over (later named Pleasant Street.[9]

December 10, 2009,

Jeff,

I have contacted the German Historical Institute in Washington, DC to confirm or deny the statement of Rev. Schroeder regarding Count von Donop.

Hopefully, they can help.

I'll keep you posted.

Bob



Bob, another place I have visited and you may have luck with is the Johannes Schwalm Historical Association. They might have something already published or have some information for you. I was a member of their organization for a while and they have published quite a bit on Hessian historical information.



Jeff





Jeff,

Can you print out the pix for me so I can put it in a frame so I can keep in the barn? I have the pix printer to do it. Thanks. We're closed today from over 12 inches of snow. I'm working on a painting project for a customer instead. Always keeping busy here.

Jenn



Jenn,

‘I just read the thermometer and it says zero with 20 below chill factor! Why couldn't our ancestors have landed in the Caribbean! Will try to print pic, if my car door is not frozen shut. Jeff





Jeff,

I got to the book but it looks like it's all written in Hebrew--thought it was Yiddish--My friend can translate Yiddish but not Hebrew

Susan





Susan,

I think it is Russian Yiddish, written in Hebrew. Yikes! Thanks for trying. Jeff

Jeff
