1762
Katherine the Great or Katherine II (1729-1796) who was a German Princess came to Russia and married Peter the successor to the throne of Russia in 1745. He was weak and incompetent. He became Emperor of Russia in 1762 and was quickly deposed by Katherine and her friends and she succeeded to the throne. She encouraged German people to come to Russia by offering them free Homesteads because she felt that they were more industrious than the Russian farmers. It was during her reign that many German people went to Russia and formed their own German communities.



She promised them many advantages and promised that their young men would never have to join the Russian Army. During her reign, she extended the frontiers of Russia and acquired most of Poland. After her death, her promises to the German people were soon forgotten and soon as many as could started to emigrate to the United States.[7]

Irvine to Washington, Fort Pitt



…Baron Steuben had some time ago directed Colonel Gibson to re-form his regiment[9] also into two companies, retaining with him the staff of the regiment; and to send all the supernumary officers down into Virginia. The re-formation was so made; but the officers were so distressed for want of clothing and other necessaries, that they were not able to proceed. …The whole of the troops, here, are thrown into four companies. I have been trying to economize; but everything is in so wretched a state, that there is very little in my power. I never saw troops cut so truly a deplorable, and at the same time despicable, a figure. Indeed, when I arrived, no man would believe from their appearance that they were soldiers; nay, it would be difficult to determine whether they were white men. Though they do not yet come up to my wishes, yet they are some better.

…I presume your excellency has been informed by the governor of the state of Virginia, or General Clark[10], of the failure of his (Clark’s) expedition.



December 2, 1799: On 2 December citizen Murat, a lieutenant eneral, was named commander in chief and inspector general of the new Guard. (He remained in this post only a few weeks.) ...[11]



The decree organizing the Guard of the Consuls was dated 13 nivose year VIII (3 Jan 1800)." (Lachoque - "The Anatomy of Glory" p 7)[12]



Joseph LeClere, my 5th great grandfather was one of Napoleans bodyguards. His family would eventually move to Dubuque, Iowa.

Napolean’s Imperial Guard was the world’s most elite fighting force during this period. These fearless infantrymen, or artillerymen, and cavalry troopers, handpicked by the emperor to serve in his personal bodyguard, were the best-trained, best-equipped, and toughest troops in Napoleon’s formidable army. All men in the unit had served the emperor from the beginning, and at the time of Waterloo many of these soldiers were ten and twenty year veterans. Their flawless tactical maneuvering and almost fanatical devotion made them feared and respected by armies across Europe.[13]

1860 - Spencer repeating carbine patented.

Introduced at the start of the Civil War, Spencer repeating guns were technically advanced, used cartridges (a recent development), and could fire 7 shots in 15 seconds. But the Army didn't want a repeating gun, fearing that soldiers would fire more often, constantly need fresh ammunition, and overtax the supply system. But in 1863, President Lincoln test-fired a Spencer. His approval led to the purchase of 107,372 Spencer repeating carbines and rifles (of 144,500 made), and the Spencer became the principal repeating gun of the Civil War.[17]

On August 14, SS Heinrichsohn composed the usual telex to Eichmann in Berlin, the Inspector of Concentration Camps at Oranienburg, and the Commandant of Auschwitz. He informed the addressees that on that day, at 8:55 AM, train #901/14 left with 1,000 Jews from the station at Drancy for Auschwitz, under the supervision of Feldwebel Kropp. A very important detail is indicated: Heinrichsohn states that “…for the first time, there are children (under 12)…”, (“darunter erstmalig kinder”).



Documents related to this convoy are XXVb-120 (of August 7), and XXVb-121 (of August 10.



Upon their arrival in Auschwitz, 115 men were selected for work (there were exactly 115 men between ages 18 and 42. All the others—at least 875 people, were immediately gassed. Neither woman nor child entered the camp. The 115 received numbers 59229 through 59343.

[9] The seventh Virginia regiment, afterward the first. This regiment, previously the ninth, was originally the thirteenth Virginia. It was raised west of the mountains largely through the exertions of Col. William Crawford, and was known on the border as the “West Augusta regiment;” so called from the district of West Augusta, Virginia.


[10] Of Clark, Washington wrote, “I have not the pleasure of knowing the gentleman; but, independently of the proofs he has given of his activity and address, the unbounded confidence which I am told the western people repose in him, is a matter of vast importance; as I imagine a considerable part of his force will consist of volunteers and militia, who are not to be governed by military laws, but must be held by the ties of confidence and affection to their leader.”
