Researchers: Ancient human remains found in Israel
AP – Professor Avi Gopher from the Institute of Archeology of Tel Aviv University holds an ancient tooth that …
By DANIEL ESTRIN, Associated Press Daniel Estrin, Associated Press – Mon Dec 27, 6:13 pm ET
JERUSALEM –
Israeli archaeologists said Monday they may have found the earliest evidence yet for the existence of modern man, and if so, it could upset theories of the origin of humans.
A Tel Aviv University team excavating a cave in central Israel said teeth found in the cave are about 400,000 years old and resemble those of other remains of modern man, known scientifically as Homo sapiens, found in Israel. The earliest Homo sapiens remains found until now are half as old.
"It's very exciting to come to this conclusion," said archaeologist Avi Gopher, whose team examined the teeth with X-rays and CT scans and dated them according to the layers of earth where they were found.
He stressed that further research is needed to solidify the claim. If it does, he says, "this changes the whole picture of evolution."
The accepted scientific theory is that Homo sapiens originated in Africa and migrated out of the continent. Gopher said if the remains are definitively linked to modern human's ancestors, it could mean that modern man in fact originated in what is now Israel.
Sir Paul Mellars, a prehistory expert at Cambridge University, said the study is reputable, and the find is "important" because remains from that critical time period are scarce, but it is premature to say the remains are human.
"Based on the evidence they've cited, it's a very tenuous and frankly rather remote possibility," Mellars said. He said the remains are more likely related to modern man's ancient relatives, the Neanderthals.
According to today's accepted scientific theories, modern humans and Neanderthals stemmed from a common ancestor who lived in Africa about 700,000 years ago. One group of descendants migrated to Europe and developed into Neanderthals, later becoming extinct. Another group stayed in Africa and evolved into Homo sapiens — modern humans.
Teeth are often unreliable indicators of origin, and analyses of skull remains would more definitively identify the species found in the Israeli cave, Mellars said.
Gopher, the Israeli archaeologist, said he is confident his team will find skulls and bones as they continue their dig.
The prehistoric Qesem cave was discovered in 2000, and excavations began in 2004. Researchers Gopher, Ran Barkai and Israel Hershkowitz published their study in the American Journal of Physical Anthropology.[1]
FYI: There are twelve individuals that have joined the Goodlove/Godlove/Gottlober etc. surname project. Three show their families country of origin as Poland, Two show the Russian Federation, three are from Germany, three are unknown but have “German” names, one is from (Austria)Hungary. Eight have the J1 haplotype, two have the J2 haplotype, and one is another type.
January 7, 1325: Alfonso IV becomes King of Portugal. During the early 14th century, more than 200,000 Jews lived in Portugal, which was about 20 percent of the total population. This period was part of what is known as “Portugal’s Golden Age of Discovery, in which Jews made a major contribution to Portugal’s success.” During the reign of King Dinis, Alfonso’s father, the clergy invoked the restrictions of the Fourth Lateran Council in an attempt to get the monarch to restrict the role of Jews in Portuguese society. . The clergy, however, invoking the restrictions of the Fourth Council of the Lateran, brought considerable pressure to bear against the Jews during the reign of King Dinis I of Portugal, but the monarch maintained a conciliatory position. Alfonso remained faithful to his father’s policies. The position of the Jews of Portugal did not begin to deteriorate until the last decades of the 14th century as can be seen by the decree of King Joao I forcing Jews to wear special clothing and obey a special [2]curfew.
January 7, 1502: Birthdate of Pope Gregory VIII, famed for the creation of the Gregorian calendar, a method of tracking time has had a unique impact on Jewish historians trying to match events that occurred before 1752 (5512) on the Jewish calendar with the civil calendar.[3]
January 7, 1516: Representatives of several towns including Frankfort and Worms attended a Diet at Frankfort to discuss how the Jews might be banished and never allowed to return.[4]
January 7, 1536: Catherine of Aragon, the wife of King Henry VIII of England, passed away. She was the daughter of the two monarchs who created the Spanish Inquisition and drove the Jews out of Spain. The Spanish monarchs would consent to their daughter’s marriage if Henry’s father would promise that no Jews would ever live in England. Ironically, it was Catherine’s inability to provide a male heir that led to the England’s break with the Catholic Church which would play in an indirect positive role in the return of the Jews to England.[5]
Monday January 7, 1754
George Washington and his guide Christopher Gist arrive in Wills Creek (present day Cumberland Maryland) "after as fatiguing a journey as it is possible to conceive, rendered so by excessive bad weather: From the first day of December to the 15th there was but one Day but it rained or snowed incessantly and throughout the whole Journey we met with nothing but one continued Series of cold wet Weather," (George Washington). [6]
January 7, 1768: Birthdate of Joseph Bonaparte, brother of Napoleon Bonaparte. As King of Spain, he abolished the Inquisition.[7]
No. 3.—William CRAWFORD TO George WASHINGTON.
SPRING GARDEN,[8] January 7, 1769.[9]
Sir:—By Valentine Crawford I received your letter dated November 13th,[10] and the inclosed twenty pounds Pennsylvania money. I wrote you by Mr. Harrison.[11] He told me he gave Mrs. Washington my letter, as you were not at home. At my return from Frederick, [12] over the mountain, the surveyor was running land out for such as were ready to pay him. Immediately I got him to run out your land. I have done it as if for myself, taking all the good land, and leaving all that is sorry, only some joining the mill-seat. It came out in locations as other land, but was all run out in one body. The surveyor will be paid for every three hundred acres, notwithstanding he run the whole in one body. He says it is the rule of the office. There are in each survey three hundred and thirty-two and three hundred and thirty-three acres; so I had good measure.
The land you were to have of my brother, John Stephenson,[13] when the surveyor came was located. He will lose all that is good, without he can purchase the man’s right. This he intends to do, if he can, hut I doubt it, as people from Pennsylvania hold land high.
You mentioned that the lines of’ the colonies would be extended soon, or, at least, that such a plan was on foot,[14] and that the officers would obtain their lands agreeable to His Majesty’s proclamation.[15] I am at a loss where they will lay it oft’ (as the land to the southward of Penn’s line[16] is very sorry, except in some spots), unless it is laid off as you, in a letter, before wrote me.
I have not been down on any part of the Little Kanawha,[17] but have conversed with numbers that have been from the head to the mouth. They tell me there are no large bodies of good land on it. It is chiefly mountains and broken land, with here and there a very good piece.
In a few days, I intend going up the Monongahela, to run out some land there. The draft I shall bring down with me to your house, about the first or middle of February. I should have gone before, but I was stopped by the road I had to finish. I have found out a piece or two more of good land in Penn’s lines, which you may have. I have taken them good for you, if you choose them. I could have taken more if I. had thought they would have been lessened, as it is from a half-penny to a penny an acre.
As soon as I return from up the river, I am to go over the Monongahela to look at some land two men have found on. A stream called Ten-mile creek; [18] and, if I like the land, you shall have any of it you may want. I shall he better able to satisfy you when I see you. I am, etc.
P. S.—by the commanding officer at Fort Pitt, there is a negro woman sent me who was taken, during the last war, [19] from a place called Draper’s Meadows, [20] then the property of one Major Winston.[21] He is since dead. There were twenty-two taken in all from him, but several got away and reached their master again. I understand the colony paid for theni; if so, she now belongs to Virginia. If it is not too much trouble for you, I should be obliged to you to inquire and find out the truth of the matter. I wish you to purchase hei’ of’ the colony for me, provided they will wait a time for the money. It would be doing me a great favor. There are three more, I believe, I can get from the Indians with some trouble. The wench I have, ran away from them, amid came to Fort Pitt. I am afraid there are some scheming already to purchase her.[22]
January 7, 1773
Wednesday, rode 7 miles to Mr. Stevenson’s & preached. The hearers mostly Virginians. Preached in the open air. Several present, appeared almost intoxicated. Christmas & New Year holly days, are seasons of wild mirth & disorder here.
Rode to Mr. Vance’s-to Hugh Bay’s-to Sam’l Newels-to Joseph Erwine’s.[23]
1773
In this log house where church services may have begun, following the times they met under the tree, holding their rifles under their arms, evidence points that the following were married here: Dr. Knight and Polly Stephenson; John Minter and……….Stephenson; John Crawford, his first wife Frances Bradford;Francis Hickman to Sallie Massey and Others.[24]
January 7, 1774: In Prague, Empress Maria Theresa banished the Jews. A few weeks earlier, Frederick the Great took Prague in the Wars of Succession and the populace ransacked the ghetto. He soon left and the Croats returned. They accused the Jews of treason and again their quarters were sacked. At this point and then again January 7, Empress Maria Theresa banished all the Jews of Bohemia and Moravia. Due to the protests of the Jews and the governments of England and Holland, the decree was dropped everywhere but in Prague. To put this in perspective, this happened five months before the outbreak of the American Revolution. In other words, while the Old World was continuing to find ways to persecute Jews, the New World was about to enjoy a new birth of freedom that would include the Jews.[25]
January 7, 1775: For the second time in two months, Empress Maria Theresa banished all the Jews of Bohemia and Moravia.[26]
January 7, 1777: Valentine Crawford[27] dies of pneumonia.[28] He was a Colonel in the Virginia Militia December, 1776, where he served as Wagon Master General. He also acted as secretary and assistant to George Washington. He died January 7, 1777 in Fayette County, Pennsylvania. While returning home from a battle with Indians, he fell through thin ice and drowned (some sources say he died of pneumonia after falling through ice). His brother, William, recovered his body and brought it home for burial near his mother, Honoria Grimes Crawford. He is buried at Bullskin Creek in Shepardstown, West Virginia.
Colonel Valentine Crawford is the compilers 6th great granduncle.
January7, 1777: “nearly 12,000”?
Colonel Lambert Cadwalader estimated “our Army in the jersies altogether must amount to near twelve thousand.” [29]
On January 7th, 1780 a northwester came up, during which the sea rose so high that one could call it a half a storm.[30]
Moore to Irvine
PHILADELPHIA, January 7, 1782.
Sir:— I wrote you a few days since by Messrs. Proctor and Meason, two of our assembly men, from Westmoreland county, who had an order on the treasurer of Lancaster couhty for five hundred pounds specie to be delivered you for the purpose of recruiting. From their information and the gentlemen of the council for the western frontiers,[31] we are in hopes you will be able to get a considerable number of recruits. As it is difficult for want of opportunities, as well as hazardous, to send you money hence, if you can get any persons in your parts to advance specie for drafts on council, for the purpose of recruiting, you may be assured of punctuality in honoring them, having laid by in the treasury, separate and apart front all monies, a considerable sum for the purpose of recruiting only. We have begun this business here under the superintendence of Colonel [Richard] Humpton [of the sixth Pennsylvania regiment], who has sent recruiting parties into most of the counties of the state. Our line[32] is very thin. General Washington is very desirous of having a respectable army in. tile field by the first of March. I hope we shall not be behind-hand with our sister states in their complement of men, and that every exertion will be used for that purpose.[33]
January 7, 1815
On the evening of January 7, Pakenham issued orders for an all-out assault on Line Jackson early the next morning. Despite the three prior clashes in December and January, this fourth engagement is the one generally referred to as the Battle of New Orleans.[34]

Jeff,
yah, its all very interesting of course, and, just like you suggest at the bottom of the email, we most certainly have a link somewhere, and it may take 20 generations to figure it out. based on the Y-DNA, I would have to assume its on my Weber Surname, and unfortunately I dont have anything beyond Self>Joseph(1931)>Glenn(1909-1981)>Joseph(1868-1933>Charles Weber(1840-1902) I just dont have anything at all more to go on for that line, I'm at an absolute brick wall. That was of course what I had hoped for in a long shot on FTDNA. anyways, talk at ya later, I thin i had emailed you originally because 23andMe had sent a special offer thing to my waife since she had done that method.
bye for now

Don, The chances we have a common ancestor 12 generations back in about 1560 at 71.83% and 16 generations back in about 1450 at 89.8% and 20 generations back in about 1330 at 96.78 % and because our Jewish ancestry (Cohen Modal Haplotype) tells us that Jews did not have last names but were given them or chose them the 17th century we can determine that we had a common ancestor between 1560 and 1330. Later our families each chose or were given different last names. It was probable that both our families were forced to convert or converted sometime after 1560 because otherwise we would have had the same last name. Each of our families came to America from Germany but prior to that it is probable they had come from Poland and Russia, and before that back to Israel where the Cohen Modal Haplotype indicates we are from a "Priestly family" that indicates lineage back to Aaron, Moses' brother. That's it in a nutshell, we just have to fill in a few blanks!
Knowing that Mr. Gerol L. Goodlove and Donald R. Weber could not have had a common ancestor in the last 4 generations, their 37 marker comparison shows that the probability that they shared a common ancestor within the last...
4 - 8 generations is
37.05%
12 generations is
71.83%
16 generations is
89.8%
20 generations is
96.78%
24 generations is
99.08%
28 generations is
99.75%

[8] Spring Garden was one of the names by which Crawford designated his home upon the Youghiogheny.
[9]Colonel William Crawford brought his family from Virginia to Stewarts Crossing, the site of New Haven, Pa., in 1769. He had spent several years in preparing a place for them, which he called “Spring Garden”.
[10] The letter here referred to has not been preserved. Crawford’s reply, however, is so full as probably to indicate all its important points.
[11] 4 Lawrence Harrison. His son, William, married Sarah, one of the daughters of Crawford.
[12] 5 By “Frederick” is meant Frederick county, Virginia, the former home of Crawford. His residence was upon Bullskin creek, in what was afterward Berkeley County, Virginia— now, Jefferson County, West Virginia.
[13] A half-brother of Crawford. He had five half-brothers, sons of Richard Stephenson: John, Hugh, Richard, James, and Marcus.
[14] The lines of Virginia were greatly exceeded after the treaty, in 1768, at Fort Stanwix; in the end, to the Mississippi. At least, such was the extent she claimed. She afterward relinquished her sovereinty over all territory west of the Ohio and Big Sandy, and the Cumberland mountains.
[15] At the commencement of the Seven Years’ War, in 1754, Governor Dinwiddie, of Virginia, to stimulate enlistments, issued a proclamation, granting two hundred thousand acres of land on the Ohio to officers and soldiers. This grant was afterward confirmed by the king. As an officer in that war, Washington was entitled to his share of land.
[16] By “Penn’s line” is meant tile southern boundary line of Pennsylvania, west of the Alleghanies.
[17] Little Kanawha is a river of West Virginia. It is a tributary of the Ohio, entering that stream on tile left, at Parkersburgh, one hundred and ninety miles below Pittsburgh.
[18] Ten-mile creek empties into the Monongahela on tile left, at Millsboro, Washington county, Pennsylvania.
[19] Pontiac’s War of 1763—’64.
[20] Afterward Smithfield, Montgomery county, Va., the home of the Preston family.
[21] William Winston, Uncle of Patrick Henry.
[22] The Washington Crawford Letters, by C. W. Butterfield, 1877
[23] Diary of David McClure, Doctor of Divinity 1748-1820 with notes by Franklin B. Dexter, M.A. 1899. pg.107.
[24] Since Rev. McClure mentions Frances Bradford as John Crawford’s first wife, the author is inclined to believe that John was married to his second wife at that time. Rev. McClure judged him to be married there, but John was really married in 1764 and this takes him back to Virginia. Effie Grimes was the second wife to John Crawford and it appears that second marriage took place before 1773, the year of Rev. McClure’s arrival. This being the case, Lt. John Crawford (son of Col. William and Hannah Crawford), was married previously to Frances Bradford, long enough to have two Sons (Moses and Richard), loss of his wife Frances, and be married again to Effie Grimes; all before Rev. David McClure’s arrival to that locality in 1773. (See John Crawford’s marriage date in the records of the old Bradford Bible). John Minter married Elizabeth, the daughter of Valentine Crawford, and Dr. Knight married Polly, daughter of Richard Stephenson, Jr. (half—brother to William and Valentine Crawford). Since Rev. McClure was not present when these marriages took place, he would be justified in using the term, ‘evidence points’ to a good advantage. From River Clyde to Tymochtee and Col. William Crawford pg. 58-59.

[27] Valentine was supposed to be two years younger than his brother William, and then must have been born c. 1724, not 1734 at most as most sources have. He died Jan 7, 1777. He was a Colonel in the Virginia Militia. He married Sarah Morgan, daughter of David Morgan. They had nine children. (Ancestors of Forrest Roger Garnett, Page 908.9)
