Dear Jeff,

A chilling posting on an Iranian Revolutionary Guard website describes what will happen when Iran conducts its first nuclear test: "The day after Islamic Republic of Iran's first nuclear test will be an ordinary day for us Iranians but in the eyes of some of us, there will be a new sparkle. It's a good day. In central deserts of Iran, where once Americans and some other Western countries wanted to bury their nuclear waste, an underground nuclear explosion has taken place." According to a study published this week, this awful day could happen in as little as two months!


The fact that Gerdab, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard-run website, published this speculative article is chilling. Though few believe the claim, the government has always denied that there was a military purpose to its nuclear program. But they are enriching uranium to far higher levels than is needed for peaceful energy production, and Teheran has just announced plans to triple its uranium enrichment program. Now this statement that describes the aftermath of a nuclear test appears to be intended to prepare the Iranian people for the announcement that the government has finished their atomic weapons development.

Analysts speculated that the announcement could also be intended to shore up national pride and support for the regime, which lost popularity following the rigged presidential elections and the harsh crackdown that followed. The news could also be aimed at Western governments considering further sanctions against Iran for its continued nuclear work. In any case, there is no question about the intended target for Iran's nuclear weapons program—it is Israel.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad holds to the extreme "twelver" belief that the so-called Hidden Imam will return to place the entire world under Islamic rule...and that this Muslim "second coming" will only occur after a bloody conflict that inflames the world. Ahmadinejad is perfectly willing for millions of his own people to die in the cause of killing Jews and create a world ruled by Islam. Now he is nearing the point of being able to create the apocalypse he believes is a necessity.



Throughout the Muslim world, violent demonstrations erupted as protestors spat, shook their fists and screamed the word "nakba" (catastrophe). They demand that Jerusalem be taken from the Jews to be the next Islamic capital. While the enemies of the Jewish people cursed them, you still have the opportunity to bless the Children of Israel. "I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curses thee." (Genesis 12:3)


Modeh ani l'faneykha, melekh chai vekayam; rabbah emunatekha.

I thank you living and eternal King; great is your faithfulness.

Your ambassador to Jerusalem,

Dr. Michael Evans



This Day…



June 14, 1287: Kublai Khan defeated the force of Nayan and other traditionalist Borjigin princes in East Mongolia and Manchuria. It is quite possible that there were Jewish soldiers serving under the great Mongol warrior who became Emperor of China. According to Marco Polo, Kubla Kahn celebrated the festivals of the Jews as well as those of the Muslims and Christians, indicating that a Jewish community existed that could make itself felt at the highest level of the Empire.[2]



June 14, 1514: Azemmour, a city in Morocco, offered privileges to Jews fleeing from Portugal.[3]

1515: Neil Mackennon of Mishnish was the head of the tribe in 1515.[4]

Friday June 14, 1754

Captain James Mackay with the Independent Company of South Carolina arrives at The Great Meadows with 100 men. These men are welcome reinforcements as they are regular, well trained British soldiers. Problems of rank almost arise between Mackay and Washington. Mackay's rank is lower, but, obtained from the Crown and it takes precedence over Washington's Colonial rank. However Washington will not agree to turn over command of his men. The two men agree to essentially share leadership through consensus. [5]



June 14, 1656: Directors of the Dutch West India Company sent a strong letter to Peter Stuyvesant in New Amsterdam ordering him to give "more respect" to the "Jews or Portuguese people" in his city. A principle shareholder in the company, a Jew named Joseph d'Acosta had assisted in obtaining this statement.[6]



“June 14, 1777 - During the evening the entire army received orders to move out. The heavy baggage and the wives were shipped to Brunswick and remained there [7]



Bardeleben, as usual, provides more details of the movement into New Jersey than the diarists who were actually present. “June 14 - * During the past night the army at Brunswick had to strike their tents and form two columns with the intent of drawing nearer to the enemy, who was in camp at Bound Brook.

“Lord Cornwallis’ column marched in the following order: the Hessian and Ansbach Jaegers, two battalions of English Light Infantry, of which however, four companies under Major Gray had to be transferred to Lieutenant Colonel Twisleton, the English Grenadiers, Lieutenant Colonel [Thomas] Stirling’s Brigade, Lieutenant Colonel Calder’s Brigade, the Hessian Grenadiers, the 16th Dragoon Regiment, of which one officer and sixteen men remained in Brunswick, and two light 12-pound cannons and four 6-pound cannons.

“General von Heister’s column, with Generals Stirn, Vaughan, [Charles] Grey, and Brigadier Generals [James] Agnew and [Alexander] Leslie, followed the other column with four companies of Light Infantry under Major Gray, the Light Infntry Company of the Guards with the English Jaeger Company, all under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Twisleton, a corps of pioneers Lieutenant Colonel Trelawney’s Brigade, Stint’s Brigade, the 2nd, 4th, and 3rd Brigades which have two light 12-pound cannons and eight 6-pound cannons with them, and the 17th Dragoon Regiment, mounted and on foot.

“General Leslie’s Brigade had the lead and followed immediately behind General Cornwallis.

“The regiments left their tents and baggage behind and were allowed to take only two wagons per battalion for the provisions and to carry the officers who were at the head of each brigade.

“In addition to these wagons, the army had 300 others loaded with salted meat and rum, which traveled between the columns.

“General Mathew’s Brigade remained behind with the 7th English Regiment, the Combined Battalion, and the Koehier Grenadier Battalion to cover Brunswick.

“At eleven o’clock yesterday evening the army set out in the previously described order and marched along the road to Princeton. After two hours it had to halt before everyone had begun to march. Because the enemy had destroyed the bridge near Kingston and the bridge near Rocky Hills over the Millstone River, the first column had to move farther to the right and take the road over Middlebush to Hilisborough, where they arrived, unhindered, after a two hour march and camped there. [Marginal note- at ten o’clock this morning] The right wing stretched along the Millstone River and above Hillsborough formed an angle.

“Captain [Carl August von] Wrede with the 1st Jaeger Company and a part of the Ansbach Jaegers was posted forward where the abatis began, and Captain Ewald and the remaining jaegers on the left to cover that flank.

“The pickets of this column formed the chain between both Jaeger companies and extended as far as the bank of the Millstone River.

“The enemy had strong detachments in the woods, which lay before this column. They moved these detachments toward the main picket on the left, from which an officer and thirty men were detached to both the left and right. The enemy moved forward to attack these two posts with about 200 men and because the mentioned detachments were in danger, they were pulled back a short way and at the same time the captain of the main picket moved forward to support them, driving the enemy back again. Two grenadiers of the Minnigerode Battalion were wounded during this action.

“The second column moved along the road to Hilisborough to Middlebush in Somerset county and took the left road through this place which the Guard Battalion with the Light Infantry and also the English Jaeger Company followed on the road to Brunswick. The von Donop and the von Mirbach Regiments had formed a straight line. The Leib Regiment formed a blunt angle to this road, which from there on made the flank with the English regiments to the 64th Regiment. The second line connected with the first and had a front toward Princeton which ran over Middlebush through the 71st Regiment of Scots, behind which stood the 17th Dragoon Regiment, the Artillery, the Engineers, and the Pioneer Corps, and joined the first line, and with this column formed a five-sided angle. In addition the 4th Regiment was so posted on the road to Bound Brook that the left wing had its pickets joined with those of the Leib Regiment on the right wing and also an abatis.

“The English Jaegers with the Light Infantry covered the left flank and that of the 4th Regiment between which they were joined with the pickets of the other regiments of the first line and covered the right flank.

“The pickets of the 64th Regiment and those of the other lines, according to the way they were camped, were placed a half mile ahead of their front.[8]



June 14, 1777

Congress adopts the official American Flag[9] in the Declaration Chamber of Constitution Hall in Philadelphia.[10] Betsy Ross has been credited with making the first American flag at the request of General George Washington and the Congressional Flag Committee.[11] Brother John Ross, husband of Betsy, was a member of Lodge No. 2 Philadelphia.[12]



June 14, 1782



Next day, I made a due East course which I generally kept the rest of my journey. I often imagined my gun was only wood bound, and tried every method I could devise to unscrew the lock but never could effect it, having no knife nor anything fitting for the purpose,[13]



This massacre was bitterly repaid in the defeat of Col. William Crawford's force of 480 mounted men in June, 1782. They started from the old Mingo town on the west side of the Ohio with the object of attacking the Moravian Indians, as well as the Wyandots, in the same neighborhood. The Indian towns were found deserted, and the force pushed on after the retreating foe. Col. Williamson was second in command. The whites were fiercely attacked on the Sandusky plains (now Wyandot County), forced to retreat, and suffered a humiliating defeat. The Indians killed or captured the majority of the force, and among the latter were Col. Crawford and his son-in-law, Maj. Harrison; but, by some decree of Providence, Williamson was allowed to escape, and the innocent left to suffer the penalty of his cruel murder of the Moravian Indians. Col. Crawford and Maj. Harrison were put to death. The latter was squibbed to death with powder at Wapatomika (Logan County), while Crawford was burned at the stake in what is now Wyandot County. The burning of Col. Crawford, as related by Dr. Knight, was one of the most horrible scenes in the annals of Indian warfare. It took place in a low bottom west of Upper Sandusky, and eight miles from the mouth of Tymochtee Creek, on the east bank of that stream. His hands were fastened together behind his back, a rope tied to the ligature binding his wrists and then made fast to a stake close to the ground, giving him sufficient length of rope to walk around the stake twice and back again. His ears were cut off, seventy charges of powder fired into his body from the neck down, his blistering skin punched with burning poles, and as he walked around over a bed of fire, the inhuman devils would throw hot coals and ashes upon him. Thus for three hours this awful scene went on, ending by scalping him and throwing coals of fire upon his bleeding head as he lay dying upon the ground. His body was then thrown into the fire and burnt to ashes.

Col. Crawford was the great-grandfather of Theophilus McKinnon, who died at London, Ohio, in April, 1882. Mr. McKinnon's parents settled in Clark County in 1803, whence he removed to Madison. His mother was the daughter of Maj. Harrison, who was squibbed to death with powder at Wapatomika. Soon after settling in Clark County, four Indians called at her house one day for dinner, and, while eating, informed her, in answer to some questions, the manner and place in which her father suffered death ; also that two of the party had been present at the execution of her grandfather. Throughout the campaign, this was the fate of nearly all captured males, few escaping death in some form peculiar to the devilish ingenuity of the savages. Dr. Knight and the guide, Slover, who were also captured with Crawford and Harrison, were intended to be put to death in a similar manner. The former escaped from a young Indian into whose care he was given to be taken to a town forty miles distant from Sandusky. Slover was brought to Grenadier Squaw town, stripped for execution, tied to the stake, and the fire kindled, but a terrible storm arose and put out the fire, when the Indians, looking upon this as the manifestation of an angry God, postponed the horrid deed, and that night Slover escaped. [14]

William Harrison was William Crawford's son-in-law. He was killed by Indians on the disastrous Sandusky campaign in 1782, which also claimed the life of his father-in-law.[15]









1782



Colonel William Crawford 1732-1782

Seventh Regiment of the Virginia Battalion

By Professor Bobert D. Chadeayue



At the Museum in Wyondat county is a model reenacting the battle and William Crawfords sword. This sword was found in a field nearby. [16]

In the Grace Goulder “This is Ohio” are many interesting facts of interest. She says,

“All through this county (Wyondat) are Crawford statues and markers, and lore about martyrdom, the tragedy that happened in 1782 and has been the subject of many novels, including one by Ohioan Zane Grey.”

June 14, 1796

On June 14, 1796. Warrant no 21, entry no. 2681, John Crawford (heir) was nonresident, transferred 50 acres to William Winship, for $3.29 Recorded 1805. (on the Ohio River.[17]

June 14, 1796: French forces attacked Frankfurt. An artillery barrage aimed at the Austrian arsenal next to the ghetto struck the Judengasse instead. The subsequent fired burned so much of the ghetto that 2,000 of its inhabitants were left homeless. This forced the city’s senate to suspend the decree forbidding Jews from living elsewhere in the city. The fire effectively marked the end of the Jewish Ghetto in Frankfurt.[18]

June 14, 1800: Question by Bill LeClere: Can anyone help me find the name of the cavalry (horse) regiment which was bodyguard to Napoleon in 1799 in Austria? My ancestor Joseph was one of the few to survive the defeat of this regiment when it was sent forward and cut off by the Austrians in December 1799. The name of the regiment is needed if I am to locate his military records. All help is appreciated.[19]



Answer by Jeff Hannan: In November 1799 Napoleon was in Paris leading the coup d’etat from which he became Consul. Christmas 1799 he became 1st Consul.

As for his bodyguard, there was his personal one “the Guides a cheval”, [Company of mounted guides] formed in May 1796 following a raid by Austrian Hussars at [disputed depends what you read] from which he only just evaded capture.

Once he became 1st Consul he merged the Guides with the Gard du Directoire [Guard of the Directory] and others to become a single unit consisting of infantry and cavalry the Gards des Consuls [Guard of the Consulates] that would later became the foundation of the Imperial Guard. Following the merger the Guides were renamed as the Escadron de Chasseurs-a-Cheval de La Gard Consulair [Company of light cavalrymen of the Consular Guard] then later the Chasseurs a Cheval de la Garde Imperiale [light cavalrymen of Imperial Guard], one of several cavalry units of the Imperial Guard. Early in 1800 Napoleon started his Italian campaign and the Gardes des Consuls would be involved [infantry and cavalry] in the Battle of Marengo(June 14, 1800) from which the Guard became famous and it appears it was the renamed “the Guides a cheval” company that was present during the battle and led one of the final cavalry charges that contributed so much to Napolean’s victory. Perhaps that is the battle your ancestor was involved in. [20]

There is quite a bit to read and the sites below are worth noting for anyone with an interest in the Napoleonic period.
see http://www.napoleonseries.org/index.cfm go to Reference > Military Sources > Organization & Dress > [scroll down to France, Napoleon's Imperial Guard 1892-1915 AND further down to Napoleon's use of the Imperial Guard] Also see http://web2.airmail.net/napoleon/index.html [down page after text are links to detailed information about units]

Between them you should be able to work out exactly what you seek and if he did take part in the Battle of Marengo and was wounded, you may be lucky and find your ancestors name.

Also have a look at "GUARDS." LoveToKnow 1911 Online Encyclopedia. © 2003, 2004 LoveToKnow.
Http://50.1911encyclopedia.org/G/GU/GUARDS.htm you'll have to scroll down [or use browser find facility] about a 3rd of the page to "The sovereigns of France had guards" then in the 3rd paragraph text beginning "The Imperial Guard of Napoleon"

Finally, you may wish to note this site for future reference http://www.memoiredeshommes.sga.defense.gouv.fr/index_en.htm , the French Ministry of Defence "Memorial" site. There appears to be a FULL database of the Imperial Guard and Infantry of the Napoleonic period under construction and although the site is convertible into 4 languages one notice remains in French. My French is not that good but I think it says "Due to ongoing research they are unable to give a definite completion date for this part of the site" If you scroll down the text on the "Guard & Line Infantry 1st Empire you will gain some more insight into how the original records are stored etc.

Not a simple answer but I hope it helps.

At this writing the tombstone of Conrad and Cordelia are in fairly good shape on Lot #13 of the original lot at Oakshade Cemetery in Marion, Iowa.

Burial next to them is Conrad’s son, Joseph, and Mrs. Pyle.

Copy of the receipt for the headstone (Ref #29) reveals that Conrad died June 14, 186l.[24]

June 14, 1906

W. H. Goodlove was in town Saturday. He has been housed up all winter with sciatic rheumatism, but is some better. (Winton Goodlove’s note: W. H. Goodlove would have been 70 years, 8 months, 25 days of age at that time.)



June 14, 1915: On June 14, 1915, Joseph delivered his address in Hopkinton describing the consolidate school movement in Iowa and explaining how the people of the Hopkintron area should go about forming a sonsolidated school. It did not have the desired effect. In commenting on it in her weekly Hopkinton column in the Manchester Press, Mrs. F. C. Reeve simpy noted with out further comment that Joseph and Walker had been in town and that Joseph had given “an address upon school matters, consolidation, etc.” She devoted far more attention to the economic woes of Lenox College: Would it close or be consolidated with Coe, Dubuque, or Parsons College? Or could some way be found for it to continue on its own in Hopkinton? She reported that the college’s local board of trustees was strongly opposed to any such takeover and wanted Lenox and Hopkinton “to continue together as they had done in the past.[27]



June 14, 1917: The United States also crucially reinforced the strength of the Allied naval blockade of Germany, in effect from the end of 1914 and aimed at crushing Germany economically. American naval forces reached Britain on April 9, 1917, just three days after the declaration of war. By contrast, General John J. Pershing, the man appointed to command the U.S. Army in Europe, did not arrive until June 14; roughly a week later, the first 14,000 U.S. infantry troops landed in France to begin training for combat. Though the U.S. Army's contributions began slowly, they would eventually mark a major turning point in the war effort and help the Allies to victory.[28]

June 14, 1917

Wilma, Paul and Gladys Goodlove are entertaining the flu.[29]



June 14, 1917

Mrs. Sarah Goodlove is listed as an annual member of the local Red Cross. $1.00 per year.[30]

June 26, 1917



June 14, 1917: The first United States troops arrive in Europe during World War I, landing at St. Nazaire, France.[31]



June 14, 1917: Rural school consolidation had been dislodged from its position atop the reform agenda of Chalice and his Buck Creek followers by the seductive combination of progress, profits, and patriotism. The issue remained alive but dormant. The annual p[icnic at the Buck Creek country school in June 1917 brought it back into the consciousness of at least one of its frustrated proponents in the Buck Creek Church. In commenting on the loss of the school’s popular teacher who found the “work too heavy,” the Buck Creek columnist for the Hopkinton Leader (probably Mrs. Chalice) noted:



How long before the people of this community will wake up. Its hard to tell, but seeing there is no race suicide in this community the time is coming when it will be positively impossible to house and educated the children in a dinky one reoom school. We shall waken up some of these days to find that whilst other children are making progress intellecturally our children are lagging behind. You may be surprised to hear that teaching a one room school with eight grades and twenty children is hard work, but al you have to do is to try it and you will be convinced. Well, if you want cheap and inadepuate education held on to your litte school.[32]

June 14, 1921: Ottilie set June 14 as the date for the appeal, and this time he notified all the objectors by registered mail.[33] Maintaining that the whole process was a sham, none of the objectors attended the appeal. Instead they retained a lawyer, hoping he could identify grounds to contest the legality of the district should it be approved by the voters. The county bard minutes indicate simply that “the matter of establishing the boundaries of the Buck Creek Consolidated School District in Delaware Co. was brought up gfor discussion and the objections read, the appellants not being present nor represented.” The county board unanimously overruled the objections.[34]

[17] Several questions may require answers at this point, concerning Lt. John Crawford, as well as his estate; for both becomes enshrouded in a veil of mystery. When the warrants and the land involved, are studied, one must conclude that Lt. John Crawford (son of Col. William Crawford). Met an obscure and perhaps a very forceful ending, sometime during the year of 1796.

Needless to state, Lt. Jon Crawford was alive at the time of this transfer in 1796, although this is the last available record of him, in his life upon this earth. Yet it may be clearly assumed, that he was not living when the settlement of his estate occurred, or when his land was transferred into other hands. Records in the Ohio State Auditor’s office in Columbus, show this did happen; and without price. Thus, our Lt. John Crawford was neither made a grantor or grantee in the county records.
