November 1753

November, (GW) leads Virginia expedition to challenge French claims to the Allegheny River[1] Valley. [2]

Saturday November 17, 1753:—We encamped and rested our horses, and then we set out early in the morning.[3]

PLAN OF FORT PITT OR PITTSBOURG, from Mante’s Hi

story of the Late War, London 1772, reproduced in Winsor which is the image shown here; also reproduced in Egle.

November 1759: The Late War is the French and Indian War which ended c1763. This is the form of the fort begun c1759 and the foundations and a surviving blockhouse can be seen today at Point State Park in Pittsburgh. Brown shows a sequence of plans dating from a manuscript sketch of Fort Duquesne in 1754 up to the 'Plan of the New Fort at Pittsburgh', November 1759, which is almost identical to this image. The history of the forts at Pittsburgh is complex. The first fort was a rudimentary one built by Virginians in 1754 and called Fort Prince George. It was destroyed the same year by the French who built Fort Duquesne (see 1761). On December 1, 1758, the ruins of Fort Duquesne were officially renamed and from then on the Forks of the Ohio was called Pittsburgh. A temporary fort was built c1758-59 near the Monongahela River to house troops under the command of Colonel Hugh Mercer, and was called Mercer's Fort, see Brown, No. 35. This was followed by Fort Pitt begun c1759, which took several years to build. It was abandoned by the British in 1772, taken over by Virginians in 1774 and renamed Fort Dunmore. It was again abandoned when the new Fort Fayette was constructed in 1791-92. This newer fort was used by General Anthony Wayne during the Indian wars in the Northwest Territory.[4]

November 17, 1760: Dorothy Peyton Smith[5]10 [Robert Smith9, Charles Smith8, Lawrence Smith7, Christopher Smith6, Thomas Smythe5, Thomas Smythe4, John Smythe3, Richard2, William1] (b. abt. 1730) married Joseph Wyatt (b. 1728).

November 1765: Enacted in November 1765, the controversial act forced colonists to buy a British stamp for every official document they obtained. The stamp itself displayed an image of a Tudor rose framed by the word "America" and the French phrase Honi soit qui mal y pense--"Shame to him who thinks evil of it."

The colonists, who had convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the impending enactment, greeted the arrival of the stamps with outrage and violence. Most Americans called for a boycott of British goods, and some organized attacks on the customhouses and homes of tax collectors. After months of protest, and an appeal by Benjamin Franklin before the British House of Commons, Parliament voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1766. However, the same day, Parliament passed the Declaratory Acts, asserting that the British government had free and total legislative power over the colonies.[7]

November 17. Reachd the Mingo Town about 13 Miles more.

November l7th.—By this morning the river had fallen in time whole, twenty-two or twenty-three feet, and was still lowering. About eight o’clock we set out, and passing the lower Cross creek, we came to a pretty long and tolerably wide and good bottom, on time east side of the river: then came in the hills, just above which is Buffalo creek. About three o’clock we came to the Mingo town, without seeing our horses, the Indian who was sent express for them, having passed through only the morning before ; being detained by the creeks, which were too high to ford.

Here we resolved to wait their arrival, which was expected tomorrow; and here then will end our water voyage along a river, the general course of which from Beaver creek to the Kenhawa is about southwest, or near as I could determine ; but, in its windings through a narrow vale, extremely serpentine; forming on bottom sides of the river alternately necks of very good bottoms, some exceedingly fine, lying for the most part in the shape of a half moon, and of various sizes.

There is very little difference in the general width of the river from Fort Pitt to Ken hawa; Out in the depth I believe the odds are considerably in favor of the lower parts, as we found no shallows below the Mingo town, except in one or two places where the river was broad, and there, I do not know but there might have been a deep channel in some parts of it. Every here and there are islands, some larger and some smaller, which, operating in the nature of locks or steps, occasions pretty still water above, but for the most part strong and rapid water alongside of them. However, none of these so swift but that a vessel may he rowed or sent up with poles.

When the river is in its natural state, large canoes, that will carry five or six thousand weight or more, may be worked against the stream by four hands, twenty or twenty-five miles a day; and down a good deal more, The Indians who are very dexterous, even their women, in the management of canoes, have their hunting camps and cabins all along the river, for the conveninence of transporting their skins to market. In the fall, so soon as the hunting season comes on, they set out with their families for this purpose; and in hunting will move their camps from place to place, till by the spring they get two or three hundred or more miles from their towns; then catch beaver on their way up, which frequently brings them into the month of May, when the women are employed in planting. The men are at market, and in idleness, till the autumn again, when they pursue the same course. During the summer months they live a poor and perishing life.

The Indians who reside upon the Ohio, the upper parts of it at least, are composed of Shawanese, Delawares, and some of the Mingoes, who, getting but little part of the consideration that was given for the lands eastward of the Ohio, view the settlements of the people upon their river with an uneasy and jealous eye, and do not scruple to say, that they must be compensated for their right if the people settle thereon, notwithstanding the cession of the Six Nations. On the other hand, the people of Virginia and elsewhere are exploring and marking all the lands that are valuable, not only on the Redstone and other waters on the Monongahela, but along the Ohio as low as the Little Kenhawa; and by next summer I suppose they will get to the Great Kenhawa, at least.

How difficult it may be to contend with these people afterwards, is easy to be judged, from every day’s experience of lands actually settled, supposing these settlements to be made; than which nothing is more probable, if the Indians permit them, from the disposition of the people at present. A few settlements in the midst of some of the large bottoms, would render it impracticable to get any large quantity of hand together; as the hills all the way down the river, as low as I went, come pretty close, are steep and broken, and incapable of settlement, though some of them are rich, and only fit to support the bottoms with timber and wood. The land back of the bottoms, as far as I have been able to judge, either from my own observations or from information, is nearly the same, that is, exceedingly uneven and hilly ; and I presume there are no bodies of flat, rich land to be found, till one gets far enough from the river to head the little runs and drains that come through the hills, and the sources of the creeks and their branches. ‘This, it seems, is the case with the lands upon the Monongahela and Youhiogheny, and I fancy holds good upon this river, till you get into the flat lands, below the falls. The bottom land differs a good deal in quality. That highest up the river in general, is richest, though the bottoms are neither so wide nor so long, as those below. Walnut, cherry, and some other kind of wood, neither tall nor large, but covered with grape-vines, with the fruit of which this country at this instant abounds, are the growth of the richest bottoms; but on the other hand, these bottoms appear to me to be the lowest and most subject to floods. The soil of this is good, but inferior to either of the other kinds; and beech bottoms are objectionable on account of the difficulty of clearing them, as their roots spread over a large surface of ground, and are hard to kill.

Crawford to Washington[8]

November 17th 1770 letter. “Indians will not run any farther until they are paid for their land. The Indians who lived upon the Ohio (the upper parts of it, at least) are composed of Shawnees, Delawares, and some of the Mingoes, who, getting but little paid of the consideration that was given for the lands eastward of the Ohio, view the settlement of the people on the river with an uneasy and jealous eye, and do not scruple to say that they must be compensated for their right of the people to settle thereon, notwithstanding the cession of the Six Nations thereto. On the other hand the people of Virginia and elsewhere are exploring and marking all the lands that are valuable not only on the Redstone and other waters of the Monongahela, but along down the Ohio, as low as Little Kanawha.”[9]

November 17, 1772: Attended a marriage, where the guests were all Virginians. It was a scene of wild and confused merriment. The log house which was large, was filled. They were dancing to the music of a fiddle. They took little or no notice of me, on my entrance. After setting a while at the fire, I arose and desired the music and dancing to cease, I requested the Bride and Bridegroom to come forward. They came snickering and very merry. I desired the company who still appeared to be mirthful & noisy, to attend with becoming seriousness, the solemnity.

As soon as the ceremony was over, the music struck up, and the dancing was renewed. While I sat wondering at their wild merriment. The Lady of a Mr. Stevenson, sent her husband to me, with her compliments requesting me to dance a minuit with her. My declining the honor. On the principle that I was unacquainted with it, was scarcely accepted. He still politely urged, until I totally refused. After supper I rode about 3 miles to the house of a friend. The manners of the people of Virginia, who have removed into these parts, are different from those of the Presbyterians and germans. They are much addicted to drinking parties, gambling, horse race & fighting. They are hospitable & prodigal. Several of them, have run through their property in the old settlements, & have sought asylum in this wilderness.[10]

November 17, 1775: Brigadier-General Richard Prescott had been captured November 17, 1775, and exchanged September 4, 1776, for General Sullivan.

General Prescott was again captured near Newport, Rhode Island, July

10, 1777, and exchanged April 21, 1778, for Major-General Charles Lee. [11]

November 1776

With the ratification, by the people, of the Maryland Bill of Rights, in November, 1776, the status of the Church in Maryland became radically and permanently changed. The Anglican Establishment and all supremacy were swept away and the Church was left without organization, authority or support. The natural prejudice, then existing against all things English, bore with particular wight upon the clergy of the English Church, whether of English or American birth, for all had taken as a part of their ordination vows the oath of allegiance to the British Government and by their real or supposed adherence to this oath were classed as "Tories", so that a number of them were subjected to proscription or persecution. The result of this was an exodus of those of English birth and, while the departure of Mr. Allen can not be considered a deprivation, it left the parish of All Saints' without a nominal rector. Mr. McKennon, the curate in charge of the Frederick congregation, of English birth, left the parish at some time during the Revolution and, after a short period of service as curate at Annapolis sailed for England but was lost at sea, leaving his family in Maryland. [12]

November 1776

With the ratification of the Bill of Rights in November 1776, the status of the Church in Maryland, became radically changed. The natural prejudices then existing against all English-born, especially, caused an exodus of such. The Governor, Sir Robert Eden was forced to return to England. The Reverend Allen left All Saints' Church without a nominal recotr, the Reverend McKinnon having been sent to preach at St. Margaret's.

"Daniel McKinnon living in Maryland counties and parishes...list of Clergy, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, St. Margaret's, Westminster." [13]

Ernest Helfenstein recites practically the same version as heretofore quoted, and stated to the compiler that his information was from the manuscript "History" by the Rev. Ethan Allen, in 1872. He added, "Mr McKinnon remained here until 1774, when Governor Eden presented him to Westminster Parish; about the beginning of, or during, the Revolution, he sailed for England, and was lost at sea. The Reverend McKinnon has now (1872) five descendants in the ministry, among whom are the Rev. Joseph Rogers Walker, of South Carolina, and his brother E. Tabb Walker, of Virginia."[14]

Educational facilities in earlier days were very meager, hence, the Reverend Daniel McKinnon had to rely upon his own ingenuity to supply milling needs. Mrs George Rogers, of Morgantown, West Virginia, has a valued relic, much faded and worn, a text book, prepared by the Reverend Daniel McKinnon, containing arithmetic tables, trammar rules, humns, prayers, and quotations in his own writing, for use in teaching his children. A page from this book is reproduced here. (Add copy from Torrence.)

November 17, 1793: Isaac Shelby, Esquire, Governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, to all to whom these presents shall come, Greetings: Know ye, that by virtue and in consideration of Land Office Military Warrant No. 906, there is granted by the Commonwealth unto Vallentine Crawford heirs, a certain tract or parcel of land containing one thousand acres by survey bearing the 20th day of July 1791, (July 20) lying and being in the County of Bourbon adjoining James Craig’s Survey on Indian Creek on the east and recorded as followeth to wit: Begining at a buckeye hickory and elm corner to said Craig’s land thence south seventy degrees east two hundred and eighty three poles to a blue ash hackberry and sugar tree on the north side of a ridge thence north twenty degrees east 565 1/2 poles, to a white oak and two sugartree saplings thence north seventy degrees west,two hundred and eighty poles to two white oaks and blue ash trees, corner to Craig’s Survey, thence south 20 degrees west 565 1/2 poles to the begining with its appurtenances to have and to hold the said tract or parcel of land with its appurtenances to the said Vallentine Crawford heirs and their heirs forever, in witness whereof the said Isaac Shelby, Esquire, Governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky hath hereunto set his hand and caused the feat of the Commonwealth to be affixed at Lexington on the 18th day of February in the year of our Lord 1793 and of the Commonwealth the first.

November 1794: Jay Treaty, also known as Jay's Treaty, The British Treaty, the Treaty of London of 1794, and officially the Treaty of Amity, Commerce, and Navigation, Between His Britannic Majesty and The United States of America,[1][2] was a treaty between the United States and Great Britain that is credited with averting war,[3] resolving issues remaining since the Treaty of Paris of 1783, which ended the American Revolution,[4], and facilitating ten years of peaceful trade between the United States and Britain in the midst of the French Revolutionary Wars, which began in 1792.

The terms of the treaty were designed primarily by Secretary of the Treasury, Alexander Hamilton, strongly supported by the chief negotiator John Jay; and support from President George Washington. The treaty gained the primary American goals, which included the withdrawal of units of the British Army from pre-Revolutionary forts that it had failed to relinquish in the Northwest Territory of the United States (the area west of Pennsylvania and north of the Ohio River). (The British had recognized this area as American territory in the Treaty of Paris of 1783.) The parties agree that disputes over wartime debts and the American-Canadian boundary were to be sent to arbitration—one of the first major uses of arbitration in diplomatic history. The Americans were granted limited rights to trade with British possessions in India and colonies in the Caribbean in exchange for some limits on the American export of cotton.

The treaty was hotly contested by the Jeffersonians in each state. They feared that closer economic ties with Britain would strengthen Hamilton's Federalist Party, promote aristocracy and undercut republicanism. Washington's announced support proved decisive and the treaty was ratified by a 2/3 majority of the Senate in November 1794. The treaty became a central issue of contention—leading to the formation of the "First Party System" in the United States, with the Federalists favoring Britain and the Jeffersonian republicans favoring France. The treaty was for ten years' duration. Efforts to agree on a replacement treaty failed (in 1806) when Jefferson rejected the Monroe-Pinkney Treaty as tensions escalated toward the War of 1812.[5] The treaty was signed on November 19, 1794, the Senate advised and consented on June 24, 1795; it was ratified by the President and the British government; it took effect on the day ratifications were officially exchanged, February 29, 1796.[16]

November 1795

Theophilus McKinnon born November 1795, in Harrison County, Kentucky.[17]

November 1799: 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.[18]

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. [19]

November 17, 1834 – The Treaty Party holds its own council at Running Waters, the plantation of John Ridge nor far from Oothcaloga (now Calhoun, Georgia).[20]

1835

In 1835, ancestor and President Andrew Jackson managed to reduce the federal debt to only $33,733.05, the lowest it had been since the first fiscal year of 1791.[20] President Jackson is the only president in United States history to have paid off the national debt. However, this accomplishment was short lived. A severe depression from 1837 to 1844 caused a ten-fold increase in national debt within its first year.[[21]

The 1835 Census of the Cherokee Nation, East (not including the Oconaluftee Cherokee under Yonaguska in Haywood County, North Carolina, who were considered citizens of that state) showed—Georgia: 8946 "Indians", 776 slaves, 68 whites; North Carolina: 3644 "Indians", 37 slaves, 22 whites; Tennessee: 2528 "Indians", 480 slaves, 79 whites; and Alabama: 1424 "Indians", 299 slaves, 32 whites. This made a total of 16,542 "Indians", 1592 slaves, and 201 whites living in the Cherokee Nation East, for a grand total of 18,335 persons overall. This total includes 376 Muscogee living in the Cherokee Nation East, since the Creek War. The estimated number of Cherokee in the West was about 5000.[23]

1835: David Friedrich Strauss published ‘The Life of Jesus Critically Examined in 1835, in which he treated the gospels as “mytho-poetic” writings. Soon after, Bruno Bauer, a German theologian , maintained that Jesus never existed at all in his Critiq ue of the Gospels and History of Their Origin.[24]

1835 - The first Colt revolver.

Samuel Colt developed the first mass-produced, multi-shot, revolving firearms. Various revolving designs had been around for centuries, but precision parts couldn't be made with available technologies. Colt was the first to apply Industrial Age machining tools to the idea. Mass production made the guns affordable. Reliability and accuracy made the Colt a favorite of soldiers and frontiersmen.[25]

November 17, 1863

President Lincoln meets with the Gettysburg architecht William Saunders at the White house. The cemetery was only for the Northern Army who fought for freedom. The Southern army was buried where they fell.[26]

Thurs. November 17, 1864:

In camp got orders to fix up camp

All quiet to day[27]

On November 17, 2007 I was on my way to my niece Lauren Goodlove’s basketball tournament in Rock Island, Illinois when I remembered that William Harrison Goodlove mentioned something about Rock Island in his diary. I had about 30 minutes of light left in the day so I went to the Rock Island Historical Society, (another reason to have GPS, which directed me to the address listed) where they directed me to the Rock Island Arsenal. The last thing she said was “Do not go over the speed limit at the Arsenal! After waiting 10 minutes for a train to passed I was crossing the bridge to the Arsenal and saw a white car coming my way. I looked at my speed, 35, I looked at the speed limit, 15!! I hit the breaks, look at the officer in the car, he looks at me, he drives on. Check point at Arsenal, heavily guarded. Drivers License out, purpose of visit, “family history, confederate cemetery”, as official as I can sound. “Up and and to your left, he smiles. I wonder, to myself, how many people even know about this place?

The Confederate Cemetery, Rock Island Illinois.

The only tangible remains of the Rock Island Barracks is the Confederate Cemetery. The Rock Island Barracks was one of 21 prison camps operated by the Union. From December 1863 to July 1865, 12,192 Confederate prisoners were held at the prison camp. A total of 1,960 prisoners died. Each gravestone identifies the individual soldier, his company, and his unit.

The National Cemetery Administration maintains the Confederate Cemetery. [28]

Among the Confederates who were imprisoned at Rock Island were Anthony Baker (23rd Va. Cavalry) and Lemuel Brill (18th Va. Cavalry), grandsons of Francis Godlove (Franz Gottlob).[29]

In a small box, at the entrance of the cemetery I find a book that list those who are buried at the cemetery, and their location. I find an R B Vance listed as #1440.

I do not know the relationship of R. B. Vance, Co. A, 18 Tenn. Reg. C.S.A. I hope to find out in the future. Zebulon Vance, my third cousin, 6 times removed was the Governor of North Carolina during the Civil War.

A History of the Badge of the Seven Confederate Knights

The order of the Seven Knights of the Confederacy was created in 1863 at Rock Island Union Prison by seven Confederate soldiers as one means of combating desertions among their fellow prisoners. Its members took an oath to stand by each other under all circumstances and to die in prison rather than give in to pressure by their captors to take oath of allegiance to the Union and join the armed forces of the United States. This oath was to be binding so long as the Confederate government was in existence. The oath spoke to the behavior of these prisoners of war in the absence of a formal code of conduct for POW's such as we have today.

The badges were made of pearl, bone, or rubber highly polished. The device was a star with seven points, and our motto was "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori," which means, "It is sweet and glorious to die for one's country." The initial letter of one of these Latin words in each point of the star. In the center of the star was a shield on which were the emblematic letters "C.K."[34]

[35][35] Civil War prison camp on Arsenal

The camp wasn't operating long before a cemetery was needed. The winter of 1863 was exceptionally cold, something Southern soldiers weren't accustomed to.

To make matters worse, prisoners on the first train were infected with smallpox, pneumonia and dysentery. Ninety-eight died within the month. Before spring, the Confederate cemetery held more than 900 graves. Nearly 30 Union guards also died.

The first prisoners to die were quickly buried adjacent to the prison grounds. Not long after, in February 1864, the bodies were moved to the present site to improve sanitary conditions and end the plague. The prisoner death rate then dropped considerably.

In June, the Secretary of War ordered prisoner rations cut in response to conditions Union soldiers faced in the infamous prisoner of war camp at Andersonville, Georgia.

Malnutrition contributed to the scurvy deaths of at least 12 prisoners, and while it remained a problem, the subsequent drop in the death rate belied rumors of starvation.

After the war, prison buildings were razed. Ornate stone officers' quarters were erected along what is now Terrace Drive.

In following years, the camp gained an allegedly unearned reputation as a place of suffering, torture and death. Many referred to it as the ``Andersonville of the North.'' The myth was fed by articles written by Confederate veterans and published in Confederate magazines.

In her epic Civil War novel, ``Gone with the Wind,'' author Margaret Mitchell noted these accounts in a paragraph which claims ``at no place were conditions worse than at Rock Island.'' The fictional character Ashley Wilkes was said to have been held at Rock Island, in the ``hellhole of the north.''

Over the years, families of about a dozen of the dead Confederates moved their relatives' bodies from the cemetery to family plots. Most however, remain in the cemetery. On Memorial Day, a Confederate flag is placed at every grave and ``Taps'' is played.

Through it all, the American flag flies. For the Confederates, it's perhaps an insult to forever lie in the shadow of the flag they defied. However, Mr. Whiteman said it is there to claim them as our own, although they died swearing allegiance to another banner.

He said the men are honored as Americans who gave their lives for a cause they deemed sacred.
