Saint Margaret of Scotland (c. 1045 – 16 November 1093), also known as Margaret of Wessex and Queen Margaret of Scotland, was an English princess of the House of Wessex. Born in exile in Hungary, she was the sister of Edgar Ætheling, the short-ruling and uncrowned Anglo-Saxon King of England. Margaret and her family returned to England in 1057, but fled to the Kingdom of Scotland following the Norman conquest of England of 1066. Around 1070 Margaret married Malcolm III of Scotland, becoming his queen consort. She was a pious woman, and among many charitable works she established a ferry across the Firth of Forth for pilgrims travelling to Dunfermline Abbey, which gave the towns of South Queensferry and North Queensferry their names. Margaret was the mother of three kings of Scotland and a queen consort of England. According to the Life of Saint Margaret, attributed to Turgot of Durham, she died at Edinburgh Castle in 1093, just days after receiving the news of her husband's death in battle. In 1250 she was canonised by Pope Innocent IV, and her remains were reinterred in a shrine at Dunfermline Abbey. Her relics were dispersed after the Scottish Reformation and subsequently lost.

Biography

Early life

Margaret was the daughter of the English prince, Edward the Exile and granddaughter of Edmund Ironside, king of England. After the Danish conquest of England in 1016, Canute had the infant Edward exiled to the continent. He was taken first to the court of the Swedish king, Olof Skötkonung, and then to Kiev. As an adult, he travelled to Hungary, where in 1046 he supported Andrew I's successful bid for the throne. The provenance of Margaret's mother, Agatha, is disputed, but Margaret was born in Hungary around 1045. Her brother Edgar the Ætheling and her sister Cristina were also born in Hungary around this time. Margaret grew up in a very religious environment in the Hungarian court. Andrew I of Hungary was known as "Andrew the Catholic" for his extreme aversion to pagans, and great loyalty to Rome, which probably could have induced Margaret to follow a pious life.

Return to England

Still a child, she came to England with the rest of her family when her father, Edward, was recalled in 1057 as a possible successor to her great-uncle, the childless Edward the Confessor. Her father died soon after the family's arrival in England, but Margaret continued to reside at the English court where her brother, Edgar Ætheling, was considered a possible successor to the English throne. When the Confessor died in January 1066, Harold Godwinson was selected as king, Edgar perhaps being considered still too young. After Harold's defeat at the battle of Hastings later that year, Edgar was proclaimed King of England, but when the Normans advanced on London, the Witenagemot presented Edgar to William the Conqueror who took him to Normandy before returning him to England in 1068, when Edgar, Margaret, Cristina and their mother Agatha fled north to Northumbria.

Journey to Scotland

According to tradition, the widowed Agatha decided to leave Northumbria with her children and return to the continent. However, a storm drove their ship north to Scotland, where they sought the protection of King Malcolm III. The spot where they are said to have landed is known today as St. Margaret's Hope, near the village of North Queensferry. Margaret's arrival in Scotland in 1068, after the failed revolt of the Northumbrian earls, has been heavily romanticized, though Symeon of Durham implied that her first meeting with Malcolm III may not have been until 1070, after William the Conqueror's harrying of the north.

Malcolm was probably a widower, and was no doubt attracted by the prospect of marrying one of the few remaining members of the Anglo-Saxon royal family. The marriage of Malcolm and Margaret took place some time before the end of 1070. Malcolm followed it with several invasions of Northumberland, probably in support of the claims of his brother-in-law Edgar. These, however, had little result beyond the devastation of the province.[1]

Family

Margaret and Malcolm had eight children, six sons and two daughters:
1.Edward, killed 1093.
2.Edmund of Scotland
3.Ethelred, abbot of Dunkeld
4.King Edgar of Scotland
5.King Alexander I of Scotland
6.King David I of Scotland
7.Edith of Scotland, also called Matilda, married King Henry I of England
8.Mary of Scotland, married Eustace III of Boulogne

Religious life

Margaret's biographer Turgot, Bishop of St. Andrews, credits her with having a civilizing influence on her husband Malcolm by reading him stories from the Bible. She instigated religious reform, striving to make the worship and practices of the Church in Scotland conform to those of Rome. She was considered an exemplar of the "just ruler", and influenced her husband and children, especially her youngest son, later David I, also to be just and holy rulers. She attended to charitable works, serving orphans and the poor every day before she ate, and washing the feet of the poor in imitation of Christ. She rose at midnight every night to attend church services. She invited the Benedictine order to establish a monastery at Dunfermline in Fife and established ferries at Queensferry and North Berwick to assist pilgrims journeying from south of the Forth Estuary to St. Andrews in Fife. A cave on the banks of the Tower Burn in Dunfermline was used by her as a place of devotion and prayer. St Margaret's Cave, now covered beneath a municipal car park, is open to the public.[2]

Death: Site of the shrine of St. Margaret, Dunfermline Abbey, Fife

Her husband, Malcolm III, and their eldest son, Edward, were killed in a fight against the English at the Battle of Alnwick on 13 November 1093. Her son Edmund was left with the task of telling his mother of their deaths. Margaret was ill, and she died on 16 November 1093, three days after the deaths of her husband and eldest son.

Veneration: St Margaret's Chapel, Edinburgh Castle

St Margaret's Church in Dunfermline

Sainthood: Saint Margaret was canonised in 1250 by Pope Innocent IV in recognition of her personal holiness, fidelity to the Church, work for religious reform, and charity. On 19 June 1250, after her canonisation, her remains were moved to Dunfermline Abbey.[3] The Roman Catholic Church formerly marked the feast of Saint Margaret of Scotland on 10 June, because the feast of "Saint Gertrude, Virgin" was already celebrated on 16 November, but in Scotland, she was venerated on 16 November, the day of her death. In the revision of the Roman Catholic calendar of saints in 1969, 16 November became free and the Church transferred her feast day to 16 November.[4] However, some traditionalist Catholics continue to celebrate her feast day on 10 June. She is also venerated as a saint in the Anglican Church.

Churches: Several churches are dedicated to Saint Margaret. One of the oldest is St Margaret's Chapel in Edinburgh Castle, which was founded by her son King David I. The chapel was long thought to have been the oratory of Margaret herself, but is now considered to be a 12th century establishment. The oldest building in Edinburgh, it was restored in the 19th century, and refurbished in the 1990s.

Others include the 13th-century Church of St Margaret the Queen in Buxted, East Sussex,[5], St Margaret of Scotland, Aberdeen and the Church of England church in Budapest.[2]

1095: By 1095 Alexious Comnenus was ready to contemplate action against the Turks. For the moment his European lands were quiet; and in Asia the Seldjuk power was declining. Malik Shah died in 1092, Tutush in 1095; and Tutush’s sons, Ridwan of Aleppo and Duqaq of Damascus, were fighting aghianst each other or against the atabeg of Mosul, Kerbogha, the most formidable of the younger Turkish chieftains. In Palestine the Fatimids were advancing against the sons of Orgoq. The Anbatolian Turks would get little support from their kinsmen in Syria. But Alexious was short of manpower. He needed recruits for his army. His finances were in better order; he could afford to hire mercenaries, and the best mercenaries came from the West. [3]

November 16, 1272: During their absence from England, Henry III died on November 16, 1272. [4]

November 16, 1491 : On November 15, 1491, six weeks before the fall of Granada and two months and two months before Columbus was given his authority, an auto-de-fe was held outside Avila. The condemnation of Benito Garcia and his Jewish co-conspirators, Torquemada insisted, must be read from the pulpits of churches throughout Spain, accompanied by a warning to conversos not to associate with Jews, lest their minds be contaminated again by Jewish superstitions.[5]

Friday November 16, 1753:—The next day set out and got to the big fork of said river, about ten miles there.[6]

November 16, 1758: Daniel McKinnon placed the following advertisement in the November 16 1758 Maryland Gazette:

"Whereas I've lately begun to keep School at London Town, I give Public Notice, That I will Teach Grammer at four Guineas per Annm and all Gentlemaen who may be pleased to favour me with their Custom, may depend upon being served with Condour and Fidelity by Their most Jumble Servant

Daniel M'Kinnon[7]

(Londontown is in All Hallows Parish, Anne Arundel County and is located on the south shore of South River about halfway between the Chesapeake Bay and the head of the river.) [8]

Educational facilities in earlier days were very meagre, hence, the Rev. Daniel McKinnon had to rely upon his own ingenuity to supply missing needs. Mrs George Rogers, of Morgantown, West Virgina, has a valued relic, much faded and worn, a text book, prepared by the Rev. Daniel McKinnon, containing arithmetic tables, grammar rules, hymns, prayers, and quotations, in his own writing, for use in teaching his children.

Torrence documents only three female children born to the Rev. Daniel. It is our unproved contention that there were also sons, probably at least Joseph, Daniel, and Benjamin.[9]

November 16, 1770: Got within 13 Miles of the lower cross Creeks—13 Miles.[10]

November 16, 1770; Directing the canoe at the mouth of the creek I set out with Capt. Crawford on foot to take a view of the land.[11]

November 16, 1776: REGIMENT VON MIRBACH

(MIR plus company number)

The Regiment V. Mirbach departed on March 1, 1776 from Melsungen. It embarked from Breznerlehe on May 12, 1776 and reached New York on August 14, 1776. The regiment was part of the Hessian First Division and took part in the following major engagements:


-- Long Island (NY, August 27, 1776)

-- Fort Washington (upper Manhattan, NY, November 16, 1776)

-- Brandywine (PA, September 11, 1777)

-- Redbank (Gloucester County, NJ, also known as Fort Mercer, October 22-November 21, 1777)

The regiment departed from New York on 21 November

1783 and arrived at Breznerlehe on April 20, 1784.

They returned to their quarters in Melsungen on May 30, 1784.

November 16, 1776: From the Draper Collection, 11E, 44-46, can be found a letter from Wm. McCormick to Mr. Draper, dated June 24, 1845, in which he states “My father and mother both died in Fayette Co., PA. The first died in 1818 and my mother in 1821. The former was of the age of nearly 80 and my mother was nearly 74. Mrs. Springer, the widow of Major Harrison was younger than my mother and John Craford was younger than both.” This would indicate that Effie was the oldest child of William and Hanna, being born in about 1746-7, then Sarah ca. 1748 and John in May of 1750. These dates fit all the known proven facts.”[13]

November 16, 1776

2,900 Americans stood against a massive force of more than 30 regiments, including the renowned Black Watch and Coldstream Guards, Welsh Fusileers, and Hessians, supported by Light Dragoons and Royal Artillery. Lt. Battaile Harrison was killed on the second day of the assault, November 16, 1776, when Fort Washington was overrun. [1]

Lt. Battaile Harrison, was the compilers 6th great granduncle.[15]

Battle Harrison (Lawrence, Andrew,2 Andrew1), was doubtless christened Battaile, the family name, but as it was pronounced Battle he probably adopted this manner of spelling. He is listed a Lieutenant Battle Harrison, of Rawling ‘s Maryland and Virginia Rifle Regiment killed at Fort Washington, November 16, 1776.f The Muster Roll of Captain Hugh Stephenson’s Company of Riflemen of 1775-76, included Battle Harrison as a private In the battle of Fort Washington, Lieutenent Battle Harrison was the only officer killed, November 16, 1776.

November 16, 1776

Their first contact with the enemy occurred at Fort Washington on November 16 and resulted in seven killed and 13 wounded. Following the battle the regiment marched back to New York. After a short short stay in

Perth Amboy it was quartered in Elizabethtown, New Jersey. On January 9, 1777 it returned to Perth Amboy. It was then moved to a camp on Staten Island when it was ordered to cover the right flank against American units positioned near Morristown. The unit remained in camp until October 20, 1778 when it boarded ship and sailed for Pensacola, Florida. Five ships of the line, 12 frigates and about 110 transport ships set sail on 3 November (November 3), stopping once en route at Kingston, Jamaica. The armada arrived at Pensacola on January 17, 1779. The first Waldeckers to be taken prisoner fell into the hands of the Spaniards on Lake Pontchartrain because they were ignorant of the state of war between Spain and

England. When Baton-Rouge capitulated, the first 53 prisoriers were joined by nearly half of the 1400-man garrison. The rest of the Waldeckers were sent to New York after the fall of Pensacola, having pledged never to fight the Spaniards again (May 1781). The Waldeckers encamped during September 1781 in Newtown, Long Island, in October 1782 in New York and on November went into winter quarters in Flatbush. A transport of recruits stayed in Halifax, Nova Scotia. On January 21, 1783 the regiment received new flags. The Waldeckers remained in Flatbush until the summer of 1783 and the return voyage from New York began on 25 July 1783 (July 25). [20]

November 16, 1777: FROM THE DELAWARES

[Rev. David Zeisberger to General Hand. 3NN81-84—Transcript.]


COOKING,[24] November 16, 1777.

Dr. SIR—As Capt. White Eyes is going to the fort, I will not omit to acquaint you how matters are here now with us. Since my last we have been quiet, & not any warriors have passed by here except a small party of Mohickons & now 8 days ago, 14 Wyandotts & two white men with them who came from Detroit; & as much as we know went to Weelunk [Wheeling], John Montour being in their company.

Some time ago, as we heard, 50 Frenchmen came over the Lake to Cuyahoga[25], & gave the Delawares and Muncys who live there the tomahawk, & desired them to go with them to Ligonier.[26] Capt. Pipe not being at home, they consented, & 40 men went with the French, but Pipe met them on the road, reproved the French for deceiving his people in his absence, & told them that they were only servants, & had no power to hand the tomahawk to them: Nobody could force him neither to take it—whereupon the greater part of the Indians turned back.

Capt. John Kilibuck & Pipe are gone to Detroit— upon what business Capt. White Eyes can tell you better. They did not desire me to write for them, so I suppose they did not approve of what you proposed to them.

The Shawanese—Cornstalk’s people, perhaps, will move from their place & come to Cuchachunk this winter. They lately sent messengers who consulted with the chiefs here about that matter; & as no messengers from hence are on their way thither, we shall soon hear what they are resolved to do.

Of the Mingoes we have heard nothing since the Half King [27]was here; & it seems as if they were tired of going to war, or rather frightened. We heard that after their last ret’1. they went over the Lake & asked the Wyandott Chief’s counsel & advice what they should do, because the Virginians would soon be upon them. The Wyandot Chief answered them, that they had begun the war, & had always encouraged others to go to war; they had now brought it to pass what they always had wished for; he therefore could give them no other advice than to be strong & fight as men.

Capt. White Eyes intends to stay at the fort two or three days, & wish you would let him return again as soon as possible, for none of the Counsellors are at home to do business, if any thing should happen; but if occasion should require to detain him longer, please to let the people here know of it that they may not be uneasy about him, for some apprehend because the Cornstalk is taken fast at the Kanhawa, White Eyes may be served so too: If he therefore stays out above the time he has appointed them, they will surely think so. The letter Gen’. Hand had sent to me last, the messenger lost. I suppose you will by this time have some news from before—if you can favor me with any you will much oblige Sir, Your Hble. Servt.

1781

Three-quarters of a mile from Yorktown, on Temple Farm, is the’ old Moore house, where the papers for the surrender of Cornwallis were drawn up and signed. Part of this house is very old indeed, and was the residence of Colonel George Ludlow, one of the regicide judges. Furthermore, the house stands on the site of one built more than a century before the Revolution, the home of Captain Nicholas Martiait, ancestor of Washington and Nelson, prominent in the first “rebellion against tyranny” in Virginia, when, in 1634, the colonists deposed from office the unpopular Governor, Sir John Harvey, and shipped him out of the country. Captain Martiau died in 1657. Here lived Lucy Smith, granddaughter of Lawrence Smith. . . . Lucy married Augustine Moore, said to have been a grandson of Governor Spottswood. Temple Farm was chosen, by the Royal Governor of Virginia, as a residence, probably on account of the beauty of its situation.[31]

Lucy Smith is the compilers 1st cousin, 9 times removed.

On Temple Farm, Yorktown, Virginia, Home of the Royal Governor Spottswood. In this house the articles of agreement between the Americans and the English were drawn in 1781. [32]

1781:

Here is a little history from Berks County, PA. On the east side

of Reading I came across a historical marker. It is just west of

Schwartzwald Hill, where Schwartzwald UCC and Lutheran Churches are.

The marker reads

HESSIAN CAMP

After Burgoyne’s surrender, 1777, German mercenaries, mostly Hessian, were held prisoners at various places until the end of the war. Those brought to Reading, 1781, were encamped until 1783 in huts on the hillside a quarter—mile to the north.

Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission 1948

The closest road that winds up the hill is Hessian Road (what else).

About 1/4 mile up the road it splits. Most of the houses on a

side road are built in the style of the German A er

(exposed wooden beams)[33]

1781

At the time of the American Revolution, the Landgrave was living with his second wife. He was about sixty years old, and seems to have become comparatively steady in his habits. He was a good man of business. His troops, drilled on the Prussian system, and recruited in a measure among his own subjects by conscription, were good soldiers. His army in 1781 numbered twenty-two thousand, while the population of his territories was little above three hundred thousand souls; but many foreigners were enticed into the service, and a few of the regiments were not kept permanently under the banners, but spent the larger part of the year disbanded, and met only for a few weeks of drill ("Briefe eines Reisenden.") Frederick took a personal interest in his army, and corresponded with his officers in America, making the hand and eye of the master usefully felt. He took pains with the internal affairs of his country, leaving, indeed, a full treasury at his death. He founded schools and museums, and, like all his family, loved costly buildings. When he sent twelve thousand men to America he diminished the taxes of his remaining subjects, and though these were sad and down-trodden, though they mourned their sons and brothers sent to fight in a strange quarrel beyond the sea, we may linger for a moment regretfully over Frederick of Hesse-Cassel, for he dealt in good wares, he showed some personal dignity, and he was one of the least disreputable of the princes who sent mercenaries to America. [34]

1781

1781 Colonel William Crawford resigns his position in the Army. He sat as Justice for Youghiogheny Co., VA.

February 5, Colonel William Crawford was to attend meetings on February 5 and May 8. He did not attend.[35]

Carl Philipp Gottfried von Clausewitz[1] ( /ˈklaʊzəvɪts/; July 1, 1780 – November 16, 1831[2]) was a Prussian soldier and military theorist who stressed the moral (in modern terms, "psychological") and political aspects of war. His most notable work, Vom Kriege (On War), was unfinished at his death.

•Clausewitz espoused a romantic conception of warfare, though he also had at least one foot planted firmly in the more rationalist ideas of the European Enlightenment. His thinking is often described as Hegelian because of his references to dialectical thinking but, although he probably knew Hegel, Clausewitz's dialectic is quite different and there is little reason to consider him a disciple. He stressed the dialectical interaction of diverse factors, noting how unexpected developments unfolding under the "fog of war" (i.e., in the face of incomplete, dubious, and often completely erroneous information and high levels of fear, doubt, and excitement) call for rapid decisions by alert commanders. He saw history as a vital check on erudite abstractions that did not accord with experience. In contrast to Antoine-Henri Jomini, he argued that war could not be quantified or reduced to mapwork, geometry, and graphs. Clausewitz had many aphorisms, of which the most famous is that "War is the continuation of Politik by other means" (Politik being variously translated as 'policy' or 'politics,' terms with very different implications), a description that has won wide acceptance.[3]


Name

Von Clausewitz's Christian names are sometimes given in non-German sources as "Carl Philipp Gottlieb" or "Carl Maria", because of reliance on mistaken source material, conflation with his wife's name, Marie, or mistaken assumptions about German orthography. He spelled his own given name with a "C" in order to identify with the classical Western tradition; writers who wrongly use "Karl" are seeking to emphasize his German identity. "Carl Philipp Gottfried" appears on Clausewitz's tombstone and thus is most likely to be correct.[37]

[24] A mistranscription of the Indian term for Coshocton, which the German Moravians spelled in several different forms. It was the chief town of the Delawares during the Revolutionary period. See Rev. Upper Ohio, p. 46, note

73.—ED.




[25] The early Indian history of Cuyahoga River is obscure. Some of the Six Nations seem to have removed thither at an early date, and probably occupied the village denominated on Evans’s and Hutchins’s maps as “Cuyahoga Town.” It would seem likewise to have been the site of an Ottawa village and a French trading house; and may have been the “Rivière Blanche,” so frequently mentioned in the reports of the French officials, 1742-53. See Charles A. Hanna, Wilderness Trail (New York, 1911), i, pp. 315-339. George Croghan had a trading house in the vicinity in 1747, which seems to have been abandoned by 1750 for one on the Muskingum. During the French and Indian War there was an entire readjustment of Indian villages, but the Cuyahoga town is still shown on later maps. It would seem, however, to have been the abode of Delawares rather than of Mingo, and the inference from this letter is that it was the headquarters of Captain Pipe before his removal in 1778 to the Sandusky region. The Indians reported in the autumn of 1777 that the British were building a storehouse at Cuyahoga to supply the neighboring Indians with goods; but during the later years of the Revolution the region seems to have virtually been deserted. in the late autumn of 1782, Maj. Isaac Craig was ordered out from Fort Pitt on a reconnoissance to the mouth of the Cuyahoga, to discover if the British were there building a post. He reported on his return that there was no sign of occupancy—Washington Irving Correspondence, pp. 137-139; Draper MSS., iNNiii, 4SIo. In 1786 the Moravian Indians lived for a short time at the old Ottawa village, on the east side of the stream, just north of Tinker’s Creek, in Independence township; but the following spring they removed to Sandusky Bay. The preceding year, by the Treaty of Fort Mcintosh, the Cuyahoga had been made the dividing line between white and Indian territory. With the exception of an occasional wandering trader, this locality appears to have been unvisited thereafter until the settlement (in 1796) of the Western Reserve—ED.


[26] Fort Ligonier was built during Forbes’s campaign in 1758, on the site of a well-known Indian town, probably of Shawnee origin, on Loyalhanna Creek, just west of Laurel Hill. While the advance of the army was encamped there, the enemy attacked them, after having inflicted (Sept. 14, 1758) a severe defeat upon Grant’s skirmish line that had penetrated to the neighborhood of Fort Duquesne. The attack upon Ligonier was repulsed, and was the last battle between French and British in this section. A garrison was maintained at this point until after Pontiac’s War, when Fort Ligonier was besieged, and relieved with much difficulty. About 1765 the permanent garrison was withdrawn, and in 1766 Capt. Harry Gordon reported that the fort was much shattered and rotting away. He also mentions some inhabitants clustered about the fort. More would come, he says, if right of possession was secured—Hanna, Wilderness Trail, ii, p. 40. In 1769 a land-office was opened at Ligonier and settlers flocked in rapidly. The land on which the fort stood was patented to Gen. Arthur St. Clair. The ravages of the Revolution did not reach the Ligonier Valley until the summer of 1777, when Col. Archibald Lochry set about establishing a stockade fort at Ligonier, probably on the site of the former British fort. This was officially known as Fort Preservation, but ordinarily received the well-known appellation of Fort Ligonier. From this date until the close of the Revolution, Ligonier Valley was constantly exposed to the Indian ravages. Nov. 7, 1777, it was reported that all of the settlers had fled to a distance forty-two miles from Ligonier—Frontier Forts, ii, p. 245. The party to whom allusion is made in this letter is doubtless the one that attacked Fort Wallace: see ante. Palmer’s Fort, in LigonierValley, was likewise attacked and eleven persons killed and scalped, among whom was Ensign Woods; Penna. Archives, v, p. 741.—ED.


[27] In his Narrative, pp. 160, 161, Heckewelder describes a visit of Half King (for whom see Rev. Upper Ohio, p. g,, note 24) to the Delaware towns in August, 1777. The Wyandot having sent to the Delawares the war-belt, which the latter had refused, next dispatched thither their head-chief and a deputation of 200 warriors. The Delawares, especially the Christian Moravian Indians, were much alarmed at their approach; but all ended well, for the Half King made a covenant with the Christian Indians and acknowledged their chiefs as “Fathers”. He likewise agreed to leave the Delawares in peace, and permit them to retain their much-prized neutrality. ED.
