Birthdays: Floy Coverdale Mckee 120, Elizabeth A Mckinnon Ernst 189, Nancy J. Plum Mcbride 177, Michael Schwan 54



January 14, 83 BCE: Birthdate of Marcus Antonius, who is better known as Mark Antony (often pronounced Anthony). Mark Antony is credited by some with recognizing Herod as a Jewish leader and elevating him accordingly. Later, he would side with Cleopatra in her attempts to claim some of Eretz Israel for her own.[1]

Feeney provides an intriguing example of the consequences of the new calendar in the person of Marc Antony, who was born in 83 BC on the day after the Ides of January (January 14). In the Republican calendar, January had twenty-nine days and Antony's birthday, since he was born after the Ides, was counted down to the next Kalends. That day was the seventeenth before the Kalends of February. In the Julian calendar, two days were added to January, which now had thirty-one. In 45 BC, celebrating his thirty-eighth birthday for the first time under the Julian calendar, Antony had to chose whether to recognize it on the same date (the seventeenth day before the Kalends), as he always had done, even though that date now was two days later (on the third day after the Ides), or on the same day (the day after the Ides). He chose to observe his birthday on the same day.

But this date did not exist in the calendar of the Republic. When Antony was born, there was no nineteenth day before the Kalends of February, since only seventeen days can be counted back. Nineteen days would be the day before the Ides of January, not the day after. Antony's birthday is the anniversary of the "day" he was born, but it is not the "date" of his birth simply because that day did not exist in the Julian calendar. [2]

76-66 BC: John Hyrcanus II, son of Alexander Jannaeus, High Priest of Israel 76-66 BC.[3]



73 BCE: Herod was born in 73 B.C. and grew up in Judea a kingdom in the hgeart of ancient Palestine that was torn by civil war and caught between powerful enemies. The Hasmonaean monarchy that had ruled Judaea for 70 years was split my a vicious fight for the throne between two princely brothers, Hyrcanus II and Aristobulus II. The kingdom was in turn caught in a larger geopolitical struggle bgetween the Roman legions to the north and west, and the Parthians, historic enemies of Rome, to the east. Herod’s father, the chief adviser to Hyrcanus and a gifted general, threw in his lot with the Romans, who Banished Aristobulus and made Hyrcanus king of Judaea.[4]

70 BC-70 AD


Ossiary and lid. Jordan.[5]

66-63 BC: Aristobulus II, son of Alexander Jannaeus, High Priest of Israel 66-63 BC.[6]

63 BC: In 63 BC, Judaea became a protectorate of Rome. Coming under the administration of a governor, Judaea was allowed a king; the governor's business was to regulate trade and maximize tax revenue. While the Jews despised the Greeks, the Romans were a nightmare. Governorships were bought at high prices; the governors would attempt to squeeze as much revenue as possible from their regions and pocket as much as they could.[7]

Before 63 B.C.: Jews believed that holy men were able to exert their will on natural phenonmena. Thus, in addition to offering formal, liturgical prayers for rain, in times of drought people urged persons reputed to be miracle-workers to exercise their infallible intervention on behalf of the communiytyu. Such a request for relief from their misery is reported to have been addressed to Honi some time begfore the fall of Jerusalem to Pompey in 63 B.C.[8]

63 BCE: In 63, Roman general Pompey is invited to help settle a disputed succession to the throne and ends up occupying Judaea. [9] Roman general Pompey takes Jerusalem.[10]Among the Roman troops are soldiers from all corners of the empire displaying the Roman Eagle. Pompey besieges the Temple, and in three months, breaks down the walls and kills an estimated 12,000 Jews.[11]

63 B.C.: In 63 B.C.E., the Roman general Pompey conquered Jerusalem and greatly curtailed the Jewish territory ruled by the high priests, effectively wiping out the Hasmonean Empire.[12] They granted the Hasmonean king, Hyrcanus II, limited authority under the Roman governor of Damascus. The Jews did not accept the Roman rule well, as evidenced by numerous insurrections. [13] For the larger priesthood, the arrival of the Romans was no less catastrophic. The Cohanim lost their political independence and most of their power; once again their purpose was limited to the sacred.[14]

100 years after the Maccabean revolt the Romans occupied Jerusalem, and eventually hunted down all the remaining Hasmonean royalty. The last King of Israel, Matityahu, son of Judah was exiled to Babilonea, modern day Iraq, where according to some sources, he was executed by a blow to the back of the head which split his skull in two.[15]

63 B.C.: In 63 BC, Judaea became a protectorate of Rome. Coming under the administration of a governor, Judaea was allowed a king; the governor's business was to regulate trade and maximize tax revenue. While the Jews despised the Greeks, the Romans were a nightmare. Governorships were bought at high prices; the governors would attempt to squeeze as much revenue as possible from their regions and pocket as much as they could.[1][16]

January 14, 1129: Formal approval of the Order of the Templar at the Council of Troyes. [17] The Knights Teplar became a monastic order of the Catholic Church, the Order of the Temple of Soloman. The Knights Templar had become monks and joined their brothers, the Knights Hospitaler protecting pilgrims as servants of God. [18] Troyes was the home town of the great Jewish commentator Rashi who died there a quarter of a century before the council was held. At the time of the meeting, Rabbinu Tam, the most famous of Rashi’s grandson was 29 years old and living at the village of Ramerupt, which was just outside of Troyes. The term “Templar” refers to the Temple of Solomon. In its early days, the Order saw itself as a protector of Jerusalem and Solomon’s Temple. When it broadened its activity the members of the order learned about banking from the Jews. Unlike others related to crusading activities, the Templars did not engage in the wholesale slaughter of Jews.[19]

1130: Little is known of the early history of the Mackinnon clan.[7] The 19th century historian William Forbes Skene gave the clan a descent linked to the clans of Siol Alpin. He claimed that the Finguine who appears in the MS 1450 was the brother of the Anrias of whom the Clan Gregor claim descent from in about 1130.[7] [20]Because of the clan's early association with the Lords of the Isles there is no trace of early history of the Mackinnons as an independent clan.[21]

1130: 1130 is one of the driest for the Anasazi in New Mexico. They have survived previous droughts but the population has increased greatly and there is no suitable territory to expand into. It is impossible to grow enough food to support the population. No agriculture means no culture. The Chawko Canyon is abandoned. These ancient Americans cut down the last tree and move on.[22]

1130: Pueblo peoples at Pueblo Bonito, NM, Death of Pope Honorius II, Pope Innocent II elected – Anacletus II becomes the antipope – fails to get secular backing because he is son of a Jew, Roger II crowned King of Sicily at Palermo, Church of Sant’ Ambrogio in Milan, Almohad Dynasty in Morocco to 1169 founded by preacher ibn Tumart, Pope Honorius II dies February 13, Pope Innocent II appointed February 14 (Lorenzo Papareschi, Pueblo peoples at Pueblo Bonito, NM[23]

1131: By 1131 the Crusader kingdom comprised the greater part of Palestine and the coast of Syria. The European invaders, who over time became known generically as Franks, concentrated in the important coastal cities of Latakia, Tortosa, Tripoli, Beirut, Tyre, Acre, Haifa, Caesarea, Jaffa, and Ascalon, as well as the inland cities of Edessa, Antioch, Tiberias, and, most important, Jerusalem itself.

1131: Welsh Tintern Abbey founded for Cistercian Order.[24]

1132: St. Denis Abbey – first gothic church – built by Abbot Suger in Paris, Henry I of France grants charters of corporate towns protecting commerce and industry, Persian poet Omar Kayyam dies. [25]

1133: Lothat III crowned emperor by Pope Innocent II, Diocese of Carlisle founded, St. Bartholomew’s Fair at Smithfield London (722 years). [26]

1134: Emperor Lothar III invests Albert the Bear with the Nordmark, Western façade of Chartres Cathedral built, Robert I of Normandy dies in English prison, Robert, Duke of Normandy dies in England's prison. [27]

1135: Death of Henry I of England, nephew Stephen of Boulogne assumes throne, invoking civil war between Stephen and Plantagenets, death of Emperor Hai-tsung, death of Boleslav III Duke of Poland, King Conrad, Frederick of Swabia, the King of Denmark and the Duke of Poland submit to Lothar III, Foundation of Italian line of the House of Este (until 1803), Henry I of England dies from food poisoning (Lampreys) Daughter Matilda willed to rule but nephew Stephen of Blois (Boulogne) takes Crown – civil war ensues, Henry I's daughter Mathilda to rule, Husband Geoffrey d' Anjou not popular, so son Stephen takes control, Henry I dies - food poisoning, Stephen of Flanders usurps throne, Henry I of England dies wanting daughter Mathilda to rule, husband Geoffrey of Anjou who was unpopular, her son Stephen claimed crown. [28]

January 14, 1301: Andrew III of Hungary dies, ending the Arpad dynasty in Hungary. While his predecessor on the Hungarian throne had approved a variety of ant-Jewish rules and regulations, Andrew took a different tact “when, in the privilegium granted by him to the community of Posonium (Bratislava), that the Jews in that city should enjoy all the liberties of citizens.” Things went downhill for the Jews of Hungary after Andrew’s death and they were expelled from the kingdom in 1349 under the belief that the Jews were responsible for the Black Death.[29]

January 1492: Columbus first presented his plan to Portugal in 1483, where it was rejected. He went on to Spain, ruled jointly by the monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella. The royal pair were engaged in driving the Muslims from Granada but granted him a salary and a position in the Spanish court. Spain gained control of the southern province in January 1492; in April of the same year, Columbus' plan received approval. He began to plan for his voyage.[30]

January 14, 1514: Pope Leo X issued a papal bull against slavery. This is the same Pope Leo who clashed with Martin Luther and who offered protection to the Jews at various times including when he reconfirmed the privileges of French Jews despite opposite from the local bishops and banned the wearing of the Jew badge in France.[31]

January 14, 1601: The Church burned Hebrew books and manuscripts in Rome. These book burnings destroyed priceless parts of the Jewish heritage. One of the puzzling questions is why do Christians have this almost pathological fear of Jewish books.[32]


January 14, 1604

At the Hampton Court conference in 1604, King James I demanded that all dissenters conform to the Church of England; those who refused to do so, he would “harry out of the land.” [33] The Puritans were outnumbered at the conference nineteen to four. The Conference was heavily weighted toward the established Church. In fact, the four Puritans invited to the conference were not even admitted to the sessions until the second day, and then were ridiculed by the King and bullied into silence. [34] James made it clear he did not like any of the previous English Bibles especially the Geneva. The Kings attack on the Geneva Bible came as a surprise the Puritans, since it was the first Bible ever published in Scotland, was dedicated to James in 1579, and the version he quoted from in his own writings.[35] His objection was not so much to the translation itself but to the marginal notes that seemed to contradict his cherished belief in the “divine right of kings.” The note for II Chronicles 15:16 states that King Asa’s mother should have been executed, and not merely deposed, for hier idolatry. “It is supposed that James’ suspicious mind thought that this might react unfavorably upon the memory of his own mother, Mary Queen of Scots.” Such notes insinuating that disobedience to kings was lawful, James considered seditious. As a strong proponent of the divine right of kings, james would use his kingly power to keep the Geneva from becoming the new Authorized Version.[36] The Pilgrims who came to the new world were Puritan separatists who declined to conform to the Church of England. They were willing to brave a treacherous ocean and an uncharted wilderness to find a place of refuge where religious liberty could flourish. Not surprisingly, they did not think too kindly of King James, so the Bible they brought to America was the Geneva Bible, the Bible favored by the Puritans, not the new Bible that bore the name of the king that forced them to leave their homeland in the first place. [37]

January 14, 1639

Roger Ludlow of Connecticut composes the first constitution in the Colonies.[38] The "Fundamental Orders", is adopted in Connecticut. Hartford was one of the four cities that were covered by The Fundamental orders.[39]

January 14, 1739: Convention of Pardo

•The Convention of Pardo was a 1739 treaty between Great Britain and Spain designed to find a solution to the issues of smuggling, the Asiento and freedom of the seas that had strained relations between the two states for the past few decades, and was agreed to try to prevent war breaking out. It is also known as the Treaty of Pardo or the Convention of El Pardo.

Background

Spanish authorities had been trying to enforce a ban on foreign ships trading with Spanish colonies in the West Indies and South America, and had arrested the crews of numerous British ships and tortured some, such as the notable case of Robert Jenkins who had his ear cut off by Spanish Coast Guards. The issue provoked a surge of public opinion in Britain clamouring for a military solution. The Spanish were not in a position to fight, and were keen to avoid war. The British cabinet, dominated by Sir Robert Walpole and the Duke of Newcastle also wanted to maintain peace, and so the two sides met in Pardo to discuss terms.

Convention

Delegates from both sides met at the El Pardo palace in Madrid from late 1738. By January 1739 they had drawn up a basic agreement. The British had initially demanded £200,000 in compensation but ultimately reduced this claim to just £95,000. Spain had initially demanded unlimited rights to search vessels, but they had eventually agreed to territorial limits. Britain was also to pay Spain £68,000 in return for not-payment of proceeds from the Asiento. The signatories also agreed to further discussion of the boundaries of Georgia. The chief British negotiator Sir Benjamin Keene felt Britain had got a good deal from the Convention. It was signed on January 14.

Aftermath

Further information: War of Jenkins' Ear

The Convention met with a very unfavourable reception when it was presented in London. Many of the merchant captains were extremely unhappy that the British compensation claim had been more than halved, while the South Sea Company were concerned by the agreement allowing the Spanish limited rights to search British ships. Within months the situation had turned sharply towards war, and the Convention grew increasingly fragile. By the end of 1739 both Britain and Spain had violated the Convention, and in October 1739 formal war was declared beginning the War of Jenkins' Ear. The war later become submerged into the wider War of the Austrian Succession. The issues that had started the war were largely ignored during the Congress of Breda and the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle that ended it in 1748 as they were no longer priorities for the two sides.

Some issues were eventually resolved in the 1750 Treaty of Madrid, although illegal British trade with the Spanish colonies continued to flourish.[40]

1739-40; Jews expelled from LittleRussia.[41]

Abt. 1740

William HARRISON b: ABT 1740 in Orange, Va.

William worked for and lived with John Vance as a surveyor apprentice.[42]

1740 : Colonel Hugh Stephenson (future resident of the area) was born. [43]

1740: The presumption, suggestive of William Crawford participating in King George’s War, becomes more a reality when a study is made of four years prior to 1744. The Spanish War of 1740 developed between England and Spain, due to the Spanish pressure in Florida, including other troubles. The English colonies furnished about four thousand men for an expedition against the Spanish West Indies; the soldiers suffering from desease, starvation and brutality, only a few lived to return home. This will justify the idea, that the English colonies had abruptly, suffered a loss of man power.[44]

1740: Sarah Vance was born in 1740, to Samuel Vance b. 1691, and Sarah "Blackburn" Vance b. 1709. She later married John Vail in 1755.[45]

1740….


Maria Theresa of Austria
CREDIT: Public domain

Maria Theresa, enlightened despot

Like Catherine de Medici, Maria Theresa of Austria did not have an auspicious upbringing.

"She's basically raised without much training," Pavlac said. "She gets married to her cousin, and they don't expect anything from her."

Nonetheless, she was destined to inherit the Austrian throne. When the kingdom fell to her in 1740, it was broke and under attack from other European sovereigns. Pregnant (as she would be almost constantly over the next 20 years -- she had 16 children), Maria Theresa fought back. She held on to the Austrian Empire and during her 40-year reign would institute reforms in medicine, education and criminal justice.[46]

It was far from safe to criticise the Margrave's conduct. In 1740 one Christoph Wilhelm von Rauber was accused of posting up caricatures and lampoons. For this he was sentenced to strike himself on the mouth, under penalty of having it done for him by the executioner; to see the latter burn his lampoons; and finally to have his head cut off; which last punishment was graciously commuted to perpetual imprisonment and confiscation ("Geschichte des vorletzten Markgrafen von Brandenburg-Ansbach," von Karl Heinrich Ritter von Lang.)

Charles Alexander, son of this murdering Margrave, appears to have been more humane than his father. He was sent in his youth to Utrecht to learn republican virtues, and then to Italy, probably to learn princely graces. He returned worn out with dissipation, the blame of which his father found it convenient to lay on his travelling companion, Councillor Mayer. The latter was imprisoned at Zelle, and his subsequent fate is unknown. According to another story, he was executed at Altenkirchen.[47]

Lawrence and Catherine's children moved to Kentucky. According to the Draper Manuscripts Lawrence was a brother of Benjamin Harrison the signer of the Declaration of Independence and letter therein dated. However the birthdate listed in the IGI indicates some conflict here. Tennessee Cousins states that Lawrence's parents were Andrew Harrison (b. 1666) and Elizabeth Battaile.

January 14, 1772: Lawrence Harrison, Constable, resided in OrangeCo, VA as late as 1754; removed to Frederick Co, VA in 1758; remained until 1762 and removed to Bedford Co PA where he is of record as being Township Supervisor, July 16, 1771. Bedford Co. was erected in 1771 and from it, later Fayette Co was erected in 1783. While the lands which he and his children owned are in what is known as Fayette Co now, they were during his lifetime in Bedford Co, where "Letters of Administration were granted to Catherine Harrison, his wife, and son, William Harrison, January 14, 1772". Sometime following her husband's death Catherine Harrison went to KY and was residing with her sister, Mary (Harrison) Moore, wife of Capt Thomas Moore, where she died 1826. (Deposition of John Cord, of Bedford Co, PA (Ibid). Lawrence Harrison entire history will be found in Torrence & Allied Families, p. 320-325. [S9] [S126] [S9] [S252] [S250]

His father was a cantor who sympathized with the progressive movement, and young Gottlober was educated in that spirit to the extent of receiving instruction in Biblical and modern Hebrew as an addition to the usual Talmudical studies.[53]

Russian Poet and author, Abraham Baer Gottlober, when at the age of fourteen (born January 14, 1811) he married the daughter of a wealthy “Hasid” in Chernigov, and settled there. When his inclination for secular knowledge became known, his father ion law, on the advice of a Hasidic rabbi, caused the young couple to be divorced, and Gottlober, who had joined the Hasidim after his marriage, now became their bitter enemy. [54]

January 14, 1817: George Frederick LeClere was born in Dampier Outré France January 14, 1817. He was a son of George F. and Catherine (Belea) LeClere, who had eleven children. He was a grandson of Joseph LeClere who used to stretch himself to be tall enough to get into the picked cavalry regiment which was the personal body guard of Napoleon

Later on in Austria this regiment was sent ahead on a mission and was cut off from the main army and practically annihilated. He was left on the battle field in two feet of snow with twenty sword and sabre cuts on his head. He was practically scalped.

He watched a man walking among the fallen soldiers with a club killing wounded soldiers as he gathered watches, jewelry and money. He was getting pretty close to him when three Austrian women appeared and picked on him as one whose life might be saved.

He was nursed back to health, but was never well after that. He was a home guard or policeman in Paris for the remainder of his military career, which was during high day of France.

Napoleon would send men into the streets of Paris with a horse cart load of bright pennies which they shoveled off and allowed folks to scramble for.

George Frederick LeClere immigrated with his parents to America in 1828 and settled in Mexico Oswego Co. New York. They settled in heavy timber, some which they cut, piled up and burnt using the ashes as fertilizer, as the soil was thin and rocky, then used the cleared off land to raise crops on.

On April 23 1841 he was married to Miss Louise Katherine Laude, a native of France (Semondaus Doubs France)

They began farming in Oswego Co. New York, where they lived until 1840 when they came to Iowa and settled on a Mineral reserve, an 80 acre farm 8 miles south of Dubuque.

They traveled from New York by the way of the canal and over the Great Lakes to Chicago, which was then swamp. Their emigrant wagons and oxen were put on shore. There were 18 in the party, which helped each other get through the swamp, with wooden poles prying their heavy wagons up as oxen pulled.

By good management and thrift he continued to add to his land until he became the owner of over 1800 acres of land. He accumulated a considerable fortune a goodly portion of which he presented to his children several years before his death.

They moved to Monticello Iowa in 1878. His wife died June 1st, 1897 and was buried in the French Cemetery near Dubuque Iowa. After her death he made his home with his children. He died October 24th 1904 and was buried in the French Cemetery near Dubuque Iowa.

To this union eight children were born. Names are in the following history.

For example to trace use Charles F. LeClere No.I, find Charles F. LeClere with (I) under that you will find all of his children. Take his oldest child No. ( or any other, turn to (9) and find all of Henry C. LeClere’s children etc.

You will find some of the history not filled, but I have tried to find all of the information I could. From year to year you will have to add on yourself.

January 14, 1817

• George F. LeClere, born January 14, 1817

• George F. LeClere. The gentleman whose name introduces this sketch is one of the wealthy retired farmers residing in Monticello. He came to Iowa comparatively a poor man and began farming on a tract of eight acres in Dubuque County. He made a specialty of feeding cattle and hogs,a d as he prospered invested his mony in real estate, until at one time he was the owner of over eighteen hundred acres in this state. He is consequently one of the wealthiest retired famrers in this portion of Iowa and one of its largest landowners, notwithstanding he has given his children considerable property when ready to settle in life.

• Mr. LeClere was born in France, January 14, 1817, and is the son of George F. and Catherine (Belea) LeClere, who emigrated to the United States with their family in the year 1828, landingin New York. They made their home on a farm in the woods of Oswego County, which they cleared, cultivated and lived upon until 1852, when the father died. Mrs. LeClere survivied him until 1872, when she passed away at the home of her son, G. F.

• The subject of this sketch was one in the family of eleven children born to his parents, only four of whom are now living. One is in New York, another in Storm Lake, Iowa, and the third in Dubuque County. Like his brothers and sisters he attended the district school in Oswego County, N.YU. and remained on his father’s farm until attaining manhood.

• In 1841 our subject and Miss Louisa Laude were united in marriage. The lady was born in France and was the daughter of James and Margaret Bourquin Laude. Mr and Mrs LeClere located upon a farm in Oswego County, N.Y. where they lived until 1846, the date of their advent into Dubuque County, Iowa. Here he became the proprietor of eighty acres, which he cultivated in such a profitable manner that he was soon enabled to enlarge his estate, and continued to add to his possessions until he became the owner of one of the largest tracts in the county.

• In 1878 Mr. LeClere removed from his farm to Monticello, where he has since resided in the ease and luxury which his industry so well deserves. To their union there have been born eight children, of whom four sons and two daughters are living. Charles F. is in Prairieburg, Iowa; Eliza C. in the wife of Morris Bebb, and resides in Monticello; George F. is a farmer and minister of the Presbyterian Church and makes his home in Texas; Albert D. is the owner of two hundred and forty acres of fine farming land in Dubuque County; Henry A. Has in his possession three hundred and twenty acres also lying in Dubuque County; Lulu is Mrs. Smith; Emily and Susie are deceased. In politics our subject was in early life a Whig and cast his first Presidential vote for General Harrison. He is now, however, a strong Republican and takes great interest in the success of his party. Religiously he and his wife are devoted members of the Presbyterian Church, and their whole lives reflect great credit in that connection.[56]

[51] Brigadier General John Glover was born at Salem, Mass., on November 5, 1732. There is no record of where John Glover was “made a Mason,” but documents in the archives of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts name him and his brothers Samuel and Johnhathan in “A List of Brothers before the Opening of the Lodge in Barblehead and belonging to the Same Town.” That ladge, constituted March 25, 1760, received its charter on January 14, 1778, and its present name, Philanthropic Lodge, on June 12, 1797 under Grand Master Paul Revere. In January 1775, the Marblehead Regiment of Minutemen elected Glover 2nd Lt. Colonel, its third ranking officer, and its weekly drills sharply increased. With the unexpected death of its Commander in April, Glover assumed command of the regiment. The Marblehead men were fishing on the Grand Banks when “the shot heard round the world” was fired at Lexington and Concord. On their return Col. Glover’s recruiting efforts soon raised a regiment of 505 officers and men,, all but seven being “Headers.” The Northern Light, November 1982, Vol. 13, “George Washington’s Amphibious Commander”, Vol. 13, No. 5, page 14.
