January 17, 1287: King Alfonso III of Aragon invades Minorca, making Minorca a part of Spain, a status that has survived into the 21st century, despite a brief period of British rule in 18th century. Judah Bonsenyor, Notary-general of Aragon, whose language skill enabled him to serve as an interpreter, was among those who accompanied the king during the invasion. Minorca has had a large Jewish population The Letter on the Conversion of the Jews by a fifth century bishop named Severus tells of the conversion of the island's Jewish community in AD 418. A number of Jews, including Theodore, a rich representative Jew who stood high in the estimation of his coreligionists and of Christians alike, underwent baptism. An act of conversion brought about, in fact, within a previously peaceful coexisting community by means of the expulsion of the ruling Jewish elite into the bleak hinterlands, the burning of synagogues, and the gradual reinstatement of certain Jewish families after the coerced acceptance of Christianity and its supremacy and rule in order to allow survival for those who had not already perished. Many Jews remained within the Jewish faith while outwardly professing Christian faith. Some of these Jews form part of the Xueta community. When Minorca became an English possession in 1713, the English willingly proffered an asylum to thousands of Jews from African cities[citation needed]. A synagogue was soon erected in Mahon.[1]
January 17, 1377: Pope Gregory XI, the prelate who had ordered the burning of Jewish books a year earlier, ended the Avignon Papacy when he moves the Papacy back to Rome from Avignon.[2] End of Babylonian Captivity as papacy moves back to Rome, , Pope Urban VI elected, as well as Pope Clement VII, Return of Papacy to Italy when Catherine of Siena persuades pope to return, but Gregory XI died soon after, center of music returns to Rome from France with Pope [3]
January 1754. — Washington lands on Wainwright's Island in the
Allegheny river. — Recommends that a fort be built at the
"Forks of the Ohio." [4]
January 17, 1754: The route of Washington‘s October 31, 1753 to January 16, 1754 journey to Fort Leboeuf is
shown on the map (Figures 0432, 0437) that accompanied the January 17, 1754 ―Journal to the Ohio‖ that George Washington wrote from his trip notes. The purpose of the trip is described in the 1760 edition of Smollett‘s ―Continuation of the Complete History of England…‖ as follows:
The French having in a manner commenced hostilities against the English, and actually
built forts on the territories of the British allies at Niagara, and on the lake Erie…in the
mean time the French fortified themselves at leisure, and continued to harass the traders
belonging to the British settlements. Repeated complaints of these encroachments and
depredations being represented to Mr. Dinwiddie, governor of Virginia, he, towards thelatter end of this very year, sent major Washington with a letter to the commanding
officer of a fort which the French had built on the Riviere au Beuf, which falls into the
Ohio, not far from the lake Erie. In this letter Mr. Dinwiddie expressed his surprize that
the French should build forts and make settlements on the river Ohio, in the western part
of the colony of Virginia, belonging to the crown of Great Britain. He complained of
these encroachments, as well as of the injuries done to the subjects of Great Britain, in
open violation of the law of nations, .and of the treaties actually subsisting between the
two crowns. He desired to know by whose authority and instructions his Britannic
majesty‘s territories had been invaded; and required him to depart in peace without
further prosecuting a plan, which must interrupt the harmony and good understanding
which his majesty was desirous to continue and cultivate with the most Christian king.[5]
January 1754: Many secondary sources state that William Trent began building the British fort at the Forks of
the Ohio on February 17, 1754. William Trent‘s January 1754 appointment reads as follows:
Rob‘t Dinwiddie Esq‘r His Majesty‘s L‘t Gov‘r Comd‘r in Chief and Vice Admiral of his
Colony and Don‘n of Virg‘a —

27 Year of His M‘y‘s Reign, annoq Dom. 1754.[6]
January 17, 1754: The earliest written use of the phrase ―Turkey Foot‖ that we have encountered is on the maps
[7]
that accompanied George Washington‘s January 17, 1754 ―Journal to
the Ohio‖. Washington composed his journal from notes he took during a journey with
Christopher Gist to the French forts. The journey took place from October 31, 1753 to January
16, 1754. He went to deliver a message and to surveil the French forts.
January 1756
As will be seen in chapter on Winchester, the town was fully established when Maj. Washing ton appeared before the court in Jan., 1756, with his authority to organize the Militia, and anounce his plans. he necdcd officers to form companies for his expedition against the Indians; and after stating tile emergency, the Court, upon this recommendation, designated the following, men to serve as Captains in the Virginia Regiment; George Mercer, Robert Stewart, Thomas Cocke, William Bronaugh, Joshua Lewis, John Mercer, William Peachy, and David Bell. Walter Stewart, John Williams, and Augustine Brockenbraugh, were Lieutenants; and Charles Smith, Lehaynsius DeKeyser, and William Crawford, Ensigns. This is more fully treated in the sketch of the French and Indian War. All took the required oath to His Majesty the King of England.
The sudden disclosure to the Justices caused consternation; and as stated elsewhere, they ordered an adjournment to the house of Enoch Pearson. The Grand Jury failed to appear, owing to the Indian forays in the mountain sections to the West; they were excused. Following November Court, Captains Thomas Swearingen, William Cocke, John Funk, Cornelius Ruddell, and William Vance presented claims before the Court for public services for themselves and detachments sent under their command on an expedition to protect outlaying settlements. The court promptly allowed their payment. Some of the officers mentioned here figured in the Revolution. [8]
January 1759:
1759 MAP OF THE COUNTRY BETWEEN WILLS CREEK AND FORT DUQUESNE, from The Grand Magazine of Universal Intelligence and Monthly Chronicle of Our Times, January 1759, London: R. Griffiths & J. Hoey. This map is based upon a drawing by Capt. William Orme, an aide-de-camp to General Braddock, showing the march to the French Fort Duquesne (Pittsburgh) in 1755 that ended in disaster. It includes southwestern Pennsylvania, northern Virginia and western Maryland. Wills Creek is at Cumberland, Maryland, and the Virginians built a fort there that was the jumping off point for expeditions to the west. Numbers along the route of march refer to an explanatory table on a larger scale version of this map which was eventually published in Thomas Jeffrey's A General Topography of North America and the West Indies (1768), along with several others made by Orme. These maps are illustrated in Swift and also in Schwartz (1994). The map has a cartouche with a hanging vine and a compass rose. Longitude is west from Philadelphia, unusual for a map published in England, and indicates the map was prepared in America. Blank verso. Scale:1"=17 miles. Size: 8 x 5 inches. [9]
1759
At this period John of Mishinish resided at the family estate of that name in the northern part of the Island of Mull. He is said to have died there circa. 1759 but there is some reason to suppose that he followed his sons across the Atlantic.[10]
1759
"Among the earliest known records in America concerning the Reverend Daniel McKinnon, are those of Trinity Church, New Haven (now Connellsville), Pennsylvania, wherein, in the year 1880, which marked its hundredth anniversary, the 16th of December was set apart to hold a commemorative service. There were present... the Reverend W. G. Stonex, who read a paper, the subject of which was “Ministers Who Have Officiated In Trinity Church, 1780-1880." In connection with that early day (1759), we meet the name of the Reverend D. Allison (note: Law. Harrison Dr. married an Allison), who is referred to as "the Chaplain of a small detachment of 100 men" who were sent out to open a road-way to this region. This person, who was an undoubted clergyman of the church, and held regular Sunday services, could not have been the first christian minister in these parts. At a later day than this, yet still before the Revolutionary War, we are made aware, that there came to this vicinity, as a Church Clergyman, the Reverend Daniel McKinnon, tho "where he resided cannot be ascertained, nor do we know at what points he ministered, except that his name and labors are associated with the Church at Beaver." [11]
1759: In 1759 the disciples of the strange and sinister prophet Jacob Frank followed the example of their Messiah and converted en masse to Christianity, adhering to Jadaism in secret. [12]
January 1775: Crawford had been a justice of the peace in Pennsylvania since 1771, first for Bedford County, then for Westmoreland County when it was established in 1773. Arthur St. Clair, another Pennsylvania official, called for Crawford to be removed from his office, which was done in January 1775. Beginning in 1776, Crawford served as a surveyor and justice for Virginia's short-lived Yohogania County. [13]

January 1776
After eight monthes of such one-sided precision rifle fire, and evergrowing artillery fire, the British abandoned Boston. As quickly as they left, however, Gen. George Washington disbanded most rifle companies to fill his smoothbore-armed infantry regiments, and with good reason.
The Revolutionary War rifle was agonizingly slow to reload, requiring as many as two minutes to pour powder, force a ball down its constricted bore, charge its powder pan and get off an aimed shot. By contrast, the smoothbore musket was that era’s arm of choice despite its inherent inaccuracy; what the smoothbore lacked in range it compensated with firepower, offering up to four rounds per minujte. Eighteen century tacticians believed smoothbore aremed infantry men won battles by advancing shoulder to shoulder and maintaining drilled discipline while they fired volley after volley after volley.
In contrast to the modern sniper, no matter how carefully a Revolutionary War rifleman stalked, no matter the cleverness of his camouflage or subtlty of his firing position, once he fired, his location was instantly detected. For the second a blackpoder sharpshooter pulled the trigger, his muzzle spewed a six foot sooty plume that lung in the air. Spotting this conspicuous signature, his anamies had almost tow minutes for eight volleys and a quick bayonet assault before the rifleman could reload and fire. Further, unlike a smoothbore musket, the rifle lacked a bayonet, forcing the rifleman to rely on his trusty tomahawk to take on his assaulting foes “Indian-style.”This was no small disadvantage.[15]
General Washington well understood these strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, with Boston secured, he transferred most riflemen to his under-strength smoothbore musket regiments, retaining a few detachments to scout or defend the frontier from British Indian raids.[16]
January 1776
After raising a regiment at his home at Stewart’s Crossings in the Youghiogheny, then in the county of Westmoreland, Crawford did not immediately secure a but was commissioned lieutenant-colonel of the Fifth Virginia in January, 1776. The regiment took the field early in 1776.[17]

January 17, 1779: 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). [19]
January 1781- At the start of this year, a mutiny broke out in the rebel army. Between 2,000 and 3,000 men, under the command of General [Henry] Know, left their winter quarters at Morristown in New Jersey. These malcontents moved from Morristown towrd Elizabethtown, took a sevure position on a height, and demanded their many monthes back pay, in hard cash, better uniform items, and better provisions. Therefore, three Hessian and two British grenadier battalions, the Jaegers, and two British light infantry battalions were transferred from Long Island to Staten Island today, in order to be nearer these malcontents. General Clinton himself went to Staten Island, and commenced a correspondence with them. Reportedly our side promised them all their back pay, if they came over to us. However, they refused this offer, as it was never their intention to cross over to us, but they would remain neutral; and return to their homes. These malcontents have been reconciled with Congress and General Washington, and rejoined the rebel army again as the result of promises, exhortations, and being given part of their pay.[20]
When Nathanial Green arrived in Charlotte, North Carolina to take command of the so called Grand Army of the Southern Department of the United States of America, he found only 1500 men. It was, Green reported “but the shadow of an army, in the midst of distress, wretched beyond description.” Barely half the men were properly clothed or equipped, and when Green arrived they had exactly three days supply of food. For every sorry scarecrow Green could muster, Cornwallis had three well fed regulars. Green responded to his predicament, with the most daring strategy of the revolution. Already outnumbered three to on e, he decided to split his force. By the books this was suicide, but Green believed the gamble would save his army. He sent the frontier general west with six hundred men, while he went east with the rest of the army.
When Cornwallis learned that learned that Green had split his pathetic force, he didn’t believe it, but he took the bait and split his army. On New Years Day, 1781, he sent Tarlton and 1000 men to find Daniel Morgan and crush him. Morgan was near the Broad River in South Carolina when an express rider brought word from General Green.
“Colonel Tarlton is said to be on his way to pay you a visit. I doubt not that he will have a decent reception.”
For several days Morgan let Tarlton pursue him, then he turned and made his stand in a place called the Cowpens. It was a sparcely wooded pasture. It looked like the worst possible place for foot soldier to take on cavalrymen. Cowpens also backed up against the Broad River, leaving his men no retreat. But Morgan had chosen this trap on purpose. Almost half his men were raw militia, likely to run at the first pop of a gun. As Morgan observed, “Men fight as much as they find necessary, and no more. When men are forced to fight, they will sell their lives dearly.”
Daniel Morgan invented a new way to teach how to fight to militiamen and it was to know who could do what and then never ask a men to do more than he was physically capable of doing.[21]
January 17, 1781
Commander in chief of the Southern Army, Major General Nathaniel Greene had decided to divide Patriot forces in the Carolinas in order to force the larger British contingent under General Charles Cornwallis to fight them on multiple fronts—and because smaller groups of men were easier for the beleaguered Patriots to feed. Daniel Morgan took 300 Continental riflemen and 740 militiamen with the intention of attacking the British backcountry fort, Ninety-Six.[22]
On the morning of January 17, 1781, an hour before daylight scouts reported that the British were just five miles away and closing fast. Morgan formed his men in three lines, 150 sharpshooters in front, the militia in the middle, 450 steadfast Continentals. [23]
In response, Cornwallis dispatched Tarleton with 1,100 Redcoats and Loyalists to catch Morgan, whom he feared might instigate a broad-based backcountry Patriot uprising. Morgan prepared for the encounter with Tarleton by backing his men up to a river at Cowpens, north of Ninety-Six.[24]
The riflemen fired first, then the militia fired their two volleys as ordered and withdrew. Mistaking their withdrawal for a retreat Tarlton ordered a charge, and they slammed straight into the line of continentals. When the American line stood fast, Tarleton sent in his Highlanders. Now the Continentals fell back. Tarleton, seeing another apparent retreat, pursued. Suddenly, at a deadly range, the entire American line turned and fired. [25]
The Americans just blew Tarleton away and that is the reason Cowpens is such a great tactical victory for Americans because it is one of the few times in the war you can actually see that the Americans effectively used the linear tactics, and beat the British at their own game. [26]
Daniel Morgan in the space of about 35 or 40 minutes, just delivered, after Washingtons victory at Trenton, the second most decisive battlefield defeat on the British of the Revolution. He has smashed an elite British force and totally crippled them. [27]
Morgan captured or killed nearly 800 men, 90% of Tarleton’s force. [28] American rifles, scorned by Britain's professional soldiers, proved devastatingly effective in this engagement. The British lost 110 men and more than 200 more were wounded, while an additional 500 were captured. The American losses totaled only 12 killed and 60 wounded in the first Patriot victory to demonstrate that the American forces could outfight a similar British force without any other factors—such as surprise or geography—to assist them.[29]
Joseph C. Vance, a Virginian whose Scotch Irish forefears had emigrated to Virginia long before the Revolutionary War, had fought during the war under General Daniel Morgan, married in 1781, and not long after started West, dwelling for a time at several places along the way. About 1801 he moved into Ohio from May’s Lick, Kentucky, finally settling on a farm two and a half miles north of Urbana.[30] In December of 1807 he married Sarah Wilson and they had ten children. Their son Joseph Vance became the Governor of Ohio in 1836. Joseph Coleville Vance who married Sarah Wilson died May 16, 1809 in Champaign County, Ohio. He is the compilers first cousin, 8 times removed.
The Battle of Cowpens, January 17, 1781 was Morgan’s last battle before retiring. It may have been Joseph C. Vance’s as well.
January 1783
January, 1783. The peace is concluded, and the United States have been declared independent. Adjutant General Stapleton4 was sent to the Congress to bring about as soon as possible the return of the prisoners of war, who are scattered around the entire country. The American prisoners of war are to be set free at once.[31]
In January 1785, the representatives of the two sides met at Fort McIntosh at the confluence of the Ohio and Beaver Rivers. The tribes ceded all claims to land in the Ohio Country east of the Cuyahoga and Muskingum rivers. The tribes also ceded the areas surrounding Fort Detroit and Fort Michilimackinac to the American government and gave back captives taken in raids along the frontier.
Problems with the new treaty soon arose. Connecticut's Western Reserve extended west of the Cuyahoga River into the reservation lands. Connecticut had already granted large tracts of land, later to be nicknamed the "Firelands", in the region to Revolutionary War veterans and Patriots who had lost their homes in the war.
Conflict between the tribes and the new settlers soon broke out. Further complicating the matter was that Great Britain also continued to claim part of the region and would do so until the Jay Treaty was signed in 1794. Some British agents in the region, still stinging from their defeat in the Revolution, encouraged tribes to attack American settlements.
The American government sent General Arthur St. Clair into the Ohio Country to reestablish peace. He had been instructed to offer back to the tribes some lands north of the Ohio River and east of the Muskingum River in exchange for the disputed territory. St. Clair however defied orders and instead threatened and bribed several pliable chiefs into a one sided agreement. St. Clair and the chiefs of several tribes signed the Treaty of Fort Harmar on January 9, 1789.
Several nations, most notably the Shawnee who had been excluded from the negotiations, refused to abide by the new treaty and conflict continued. The raids continued until the tribal alliance was defeated at the Battle of Fallen Timbers and the 1795 signing of the Treaty of Greenville.[32][33]

January 16, 1863: Dr. William McKinnon Goodlove (1st cousin, 3 times removed) the 57th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, the 15th Army Corps, under Gen. John A. Logan, “Sherman’s Army,” Moved to Youngt’s Point, La., January 17-21, and duty there till March.[36]
Sun. January 17, 1864
Packed up my goods a pleasant day[37]
January 17th.1865: At 2 o’clock the morning of the 17th our Steamer stopped. We saw flashes of canons and heard heavy firing. At first it was supposed to be a vessel in distress. It was afterwards supposed to be our gun boats off Charleston or Wilmington. At this time the sea was heavy and very windy.[38]
January 17, 1865: General William T. Sherman's army is rained in at Savannah, Georgia, as it waits to begin marching into the Carolinas.
In the fall of 1864, Sherman and his army marched across Georgia and destroyed nearly everything in their path. Sherman reasoned that the war would end sooner if the conflict were taken to the civilian South, a view shared by President Lincoln and General-in-Chief Ulysses S. Grant. Sherman's men tore up railroads, burned grain stores, carried away livestock, and left plantations in ruins. The Yankees captured the port city of Savannah just before Christmas, and Sherman paused for three weeks to rest his troops and resupply his force.
After his rest, he planned to move into the Carolinas and subject those states to the same brutal treatment that Georgia received. His 60,000 troops were divided into two wings. General Oliver O. Howard was to take two corps and move northeast to Charleston, South Carolina, while General Henry Slocum was to move northwest toward Augusta, Georgia. These were just diversions to the main target: Columbia, South Carolina.
As Sherman was preparing to move, the rains began. On January 17, the Yankees waited while heavy rains pelted the region. The downpour lasted for ten days, the heaviest rainfall in 20 years. Some of Sherman's aides thought a winter campaign in the Carolinas would be difficult with such wet weather, but Sherman had spent four years in Charleston as a young lieutenant in the army, and he believed that the march was possible. He also possessed an army that was ready to continue its assault on the Confederacy. Sherman wrote to his wife that he "...never saw a more confident army...The soldiers think I know everything and that they can do anything."
Sherman's army did not begin moving until the end of the month. When the army finally did move, it conducted a campaign against South Carolina that was worse than that against Georgia. Sherman wanted to exact revenge on the state that had led secession and started the war by firing on Fort Sumter. [39]

PASSED AWAY AT RIPE OLD AGE
Wm. H. Goodlove, Another Old Soldier and Settler, Died Jan. 18 A Sketch of His Life
The hand on the dial of life had entered into the section which marked the eightieth year of Wm. Goodlove, who came to the home of Corad [Conrad] and Catherine Goodlove, Oct. 22, 1836 in Clark county, O. He helped to make merry the play life of the two brothers and three sisters and one half‐brother, who had already come into that home. One by one these play mates of childhood days, except one sister, Mary A. Davis of Columbus. O., who has reached the mark of 87 years, have preceeded [preceded] the deceased into the other room of the many mansioned home. The first sixteen years of his life were spent romping over the familiar spots in his native state. In company with his father and step‐mother he came to West Union, Fayette county, Iowa, at the age of sixteen. Only a year were they at that point when they removed to Wild Cat Grove near Marion in 1853. At the time of his majority he took for a life companion Miss Esther J. Winans, Nov. 5 1857. But this life companionship was not to continue long, for during the seventh year of their wedded life and while he was serving his country as one of her bravest and best, she was called to the endless life. He alone survived her. In 1862 Mr. Goodlove put his life on his country’s altar and enlisted in Co. 24, Iowa Infantry. Here as a private soldier he put his characteristic energy and faithfulness into his duties as a true patriot, which terminated in a broken health. About a year after the close of the war he sought the hand and heart of Sarah C. Pyle, and on June 20 1866, in Hastings, Minn. They plighted their faith to each other. To make glad their home six children came: Nettie, Oscar, Willis, Cora, Earl and Jessie. The first to break the ties of the happy group was Nettie, who had married Mr. Gray of San Antonio, Tex., when she departed this life, in September, 1911. Scarcely four years have slipped away since the deceased and his beloved companion came to make Central City their home. They brought their church letters with them and united with the Methodist church by transfer from the Prairie Chapel organization. When a young man, Mr. Goodlove experience conversion and gave his sincere and earnest efforts to the work of the church which he loved and to which he was faithful till death called him to a higher service January 17, 1916. For several weeks past he has been grappling with a disease which he was unable to combat. He fought a good fight, and has gained the crown laid up for those who love the lord. His service to his country in the Civil War endured him to the boys in Blue, and this fellowship which remained till the last, was shown by his loyalty to the Marvin Mills Post of which he was a member. Mr. Goodlove’s christian profession was exemplified in his daily life. He was a true companion to his help mate who was the recipient of his thoughtful and unselfish kindness. His children have the joy and blessing of a loving father to linger with them. He leaves to glory over his victorious life a faithful wife, five children, 20 grandchildren, two great grandchildren, and a host of good friends. The service was held at the M. E. Church Wednesday afternoon in Central City in charge of a former pastor, Rev. Chas. E. Luce, assisted by Rev. Chas. G. Fort. Burial took place a Jordans Grove cemetery.

W. H. GOODLOVE (Died January 17, 1916)
For a period of forty-three years W. H. Goodlove has been continuously identified with the development and improvement of his farm, which is a productive tract comprising two hundred and forty acres, situated on sections 27 and 28, Maine township. During this time his labors have not only advanced his individual interests but have also done much toward public progress and improvement in the locality which has long been his home.
He was born in Clark county, Ohio, October 22, 1836, a son of Conrad and Katharine (McKinnon) Goodlove, the former born in West Virginia and the Iater in Kentucky. They became early settlers of Ohio and in that state the father enlisted for service in the war of 1812. The year 1854 witnessed the arrival of the family in Linn county, Iowa, the father purchasing land in Marion township. His wife had died prior to his removal here, her death occurring in the Buckey state in 1849. He was not long permitted to enjoy his new home in Linn County for his death occurred here in 1861. His family numbered six children only two are now living, the sister of our subject being Mary Ann, of Columbus, Ohio.
W. H. Goodlove was reared in the state of his nativity and acquired his education in the common schools. He had reached mature years when he accompanied his father and the other members of the family on their removal to Linn county and here he assisted in establishing a home in what was then a comparatively new district. He remained with his father until the latter's death and at the outbreak of the Civil war enlisted for service as a member of Company H, Twenty-fourth Iowa Infantry, with which he served for two years. He participated in a number of hotly contested engagements, and, after making a most creditable military record, was mustered out at Davenport. He then returned to Linn county began farming on the old homestead but in 1867 bought the farm on which he has since made his home, embracing two hundred and forty acres on sections 27 and 28, Maine township. He has made the improvements which are now seen on the farm, including a comfortable country residence, a substantial barn and ontbuildings for the shelter of grain and stock. His fields annually yield abundant harvests, for his land is in a productive state, while in the pastures are seen good grades of stock, for he has always made a specialty of raising stock in addition to general farming. He has become a prosperous man, owing to the capable management and unfaltering enterprise which he displays in the conduct of his business interests.
On the 22d of June, 1866, was celebrated the marriage of Mr. Goodlove and Miss Sarah C. Pyle, who was born in Clark county, Ohio, May 15, 1844 and prior to her marriage engaged in teaching. Her parents, John and Catherine Myers) Pyle, were both natives of West Virginia, whence they removed to Ohio in pioneer times, the father there passing away in 1846. The mother made her home with her daughter Mrs. Goodlove, until her death in 1894, when she departed this life at the age of eighty eight years. Mrs. Goodlove is the youngest in their family of six children.
Unto our subject and his wife have been born six children, three daughters and three sons, as follows: Nettie I., the wife of Richard Gray, a resident of San Antonio, Texas; Willis R., of Maine township; Oscar S.; Cora A., the wife of Thomas Wilkinson, also of Maine township. Earl L., who also resides in the same township; and Jessie P., the wife of Richard Boudish, of Maine township.
The parents are members of the Methodist Episcopal church. Mr. Goodlove is a republican in his political views and has served as township trustee and as member of the school board. He is a member of Milon Mills Post, No. 212, G.A.R. He is as loyal to the interests of his country today as he was in the dark days of the Civil war when he followed the old flag on southern battle fields. He is now one of the few remaining veterans and, having spent an upright and honorable life, receives the veneration and respect which should ever be accorded to one of his years.[40]

January 17, 1943: Berlin Bishop Konrad Graf von Preysing, the only top German Catholic prelate who consistently opposes the German government's Jewish policies, threatens Pope Pius XII, saying he will resign unless the collaborative behavior of the other German bishops comes to an end.[48]
A death train that originated in Grodno, Poland, on January 17 erupts in violence at the Treblinka death camp when 1000 Jews armed with boards, knives, and razors attack guards. By morning thousands of Jews who had been on the train are dead, killed by Treblinka SS troops armed with machine guns and grenades.[49]
January 17, 1945: The Red Army entered Budapest and the remaining 120,000 of the original 470,000 Jews would now be safe from any further disaster.[50]
January 17, 1945: Final roll call is taken at Auschwitz: 11,102 Jews remain at Birkenau; 10,381 women in the Birkenau women's camp; 10,030 at the Auschwitz main camp; 10,233 at the Monowitz satellite camp; and about 22,800 in the remaining factories in the surrounding region.[51]
January 17, 1945: SS guards at the Chelmno, Poland, death camp play "William Tell" by shooting at bottles placed on the heads of Jewish inmates who have been engaged in demolishing the camp's crematoria. In the evening, the remaining Jews are led from their barracks in groups of five and shot. One of the prisoners, Mordechai Zurawski, stabs an SS guard and escapes despite suffering a gunshot wound to the foot. A second inmate, Shimon Srebnik, also survives after being shot through the neck and mouth and left for dead. Forty-seven other Jewish prisoners at Chelmno, aware that the SS will shoot them before fleeing west ahead of the Soviets, take refuge in a building that is then set afire by the SS. Jews who run from the blaze are machine-gunned; only one of the original 47 survives. The SS abandons the Chelmno camp later in the day.[52]
January 17, 1945: The Soviet Army entered Warsaw. Only 200 Jews of more than a half a million had survived.[53] Warsaw was a battleground since the opening day of fighting in the European theater. Germany declared war by launching an air raid on September 1, 1939, and followed up with a siege that killed tens of thousands of Polish civilians and wreaked havoc on historic monuments. Deprived of electricity, water, and food, and with 25 percent of the city's homes destroyed, Warsaw surrendered to the Germans on September 27.
The USSR had snatched a part of eastern Poland as part of the "fine print" of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact (also known as the Hitler-Stalin Pact) signed in August 1939, but soon after found itself at war with its "ally." In August 1944, the Soviets began pushing the Germans west, advancing on Warsaw. The Polish Home Army, fearful that the Soviets would march on Warsaw to battle the Germans and never leave the capital, led an uprising against the German occupiers. The Polish residents hoped that if they could defeat the Germans themselves, the Allies would help install the Polish anticommunist government-in-exile after the war. Unfortunately, the Soviets, rather than aiding the Polish uprising, which they encouraged in the name of beating back their common enemy, stood idly by and watched as the Germans slaughtered the Poles and sent survivors to concentration camps. This destroyed any native Polish resistance to a pro-Soviet communist government, an essential part of Stalin's postwar territorial designs.
After Stalin mobilized 180 divisions against the Germans in Poland and East Prussia, Gen. Georgi Zhukov's troops crossed the Vistula north and south of the Polish capital, liberating the city from Germans—and grabbing it for the USSR. By that time, Warsaw's prewar population of approximately 1.3 million had been reduced to a mere 153,000.[54]
January 17, 1955: Submarine USS Nautilus began the first nuclear-powered test voyage. This marked a major milestone in Admiral Hyman Rickover’s vision of a nuclear-powered Navy.[55]
January 17, 1961
President Eisenhower warns of the power of the “military-industrial complex,” in his farewell speech.[56] A fiscal conservative, Eisenhower had been concerned about the growing size and cost of the American defense establishment since he became president in 1953. In his last presidential address to the American people, he expressed those concerns in terms that frankly shocked some of his listeners.
Eisenhower began by describing the changing nature of the American defense establishment since World War II. No longer could the U.S. afford the "emergency improvisation" that characterized its preparations for war against Germany and Japan. Instead, the United States was "compelled to create a permanent armaments industry" and a huge military force. He admitted that the Cold War made clear the "imperative need for this development," but he was gravely concerned about "the acquisition of unwarranted influence...by the military-industrial complex." In particular, he asked the American people to guard against the "danger that public policy could itself become the captive of a scientific-technological elite."
Eisenhower's blunt language stunned some of his supporters. They believed that the man who led the country to victory in Europe in World War II and guided the nation through some of the darkest moments of the Cold War was too negative toward the military-industrial complex that was the backbone of America's defense. For most listeners, however, it seemed clear that Eisenhower was merely stating the obvious. World War II and the ensuing Cold War resulted in the development of a large and powerful defense establishment. Necessary though that development might be, Eisenhower warned, this new military-industrial complex could weaken or destroy the very institutions and principles it was designed to protect. [57]

William Harrison Goodlove (Bk. I, F- 114) was born October 22, 1836, in Moorefield Township, Clark County, Ohio, son of Conrad and Catherine (McKinnon) Goodlove. (Bk. II, F.85) William died January 17, 1916 and is buried at Jordan’s Grove Cemetery. William’s first wife was Ester J. Winans, sister of H. W. Winans, who later served with William in Company H, 24th Infantry during two years of the Civil War. Williaim and Ester were married November 5, 1857. Ester was born in 1836 and died August 7, 1864. No children were born to this union.
In 1862, William enlisted in the service of the Union Army. During his term of service he kept a diary which is very interesting. After his discharge at Davenport, Iowa, he returned to his former home until he married Sarah Catherine Pyle, June 20,
1866, in Hastings, Minnesota. Sarah was born May 15, 1844, in Moorefield Township, Clark County, Ohio, daughter of John Ingraham Pyle and Catherine (Myers) Pyle. Sarah died January 6, 1929 and is buried at Jordan’s Grove. Prior to her marriage, Sarah was a school teacher. To their union was born seven children: Nettie, Willis, Oscar, Cora, Earl, and Jessie, whose twin died at birth.
In 1867, William and Sarah moved to their new farm in Sections 27 and 28 of Maine Township, Linn County, Iowa. It is located three miles southwest of Central City at what is now known as 3974 Pleasant Valley Road. This farm embraced 240 acres, which they farmed until retirement four years prior to William’s death. They moved to their new home in Central City, Iowa, November 7, 1912.
Their retirement home at what is now #53, 5th St., was built by Paul Sigmund, a respected carpenter of those years, at a cost of $2,800. That house stands today with few alterations, as does the house on their farm.
The family was of Methodist faith, having been members of the Prairie Chapel Church and then transferring to the Methodist Church in Central City, upon retirement.
William and Sarah’s children were:
1. Nettie Illini, was born July 18, 1867, married Richard H.
Gray, September 13, 1893, at her parents home. Nettie died
September 15, 1911. Nettie and Richard were both doctors in
Anamosa, Iowa before moving to Texas, where their daughter,
Ruth Johnson lives today. They had a son, Richard, who died
at the age of 6 in July 1908, while the family was visiting
Nettie’s parents. The boy is buried at Jordan’s Grove.
2. Willis Ralph (March 22, 1869-April 8, 1953) married
Myrtle Isabelle Andrews, March 4, 1896. She died August 29,
1962, at age 86 years. Both are buried at Jordan’s Grove Cemetery (Bk. II, F-87). Their children were: Wallace Harold (Bk.
II, F-88), Ethel Vinetta, Bessie Marie, Wilma Laura, Mary lone,
William Paul, Gladys Lavona, and Kenneth Ivan.
3. Oscar Sherman was born October 28, 1871 and married Margie Jenkins on November 16, 1892, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Jenkins. To this union were born a son, Ralph, December 14, 1893, and a daughter, Rachel, born March 1, 1896.
4. Cora Alice (November 1, 1876-December 14, 1960) marriedThomas Wilkinson, April 4, 1907, at the home of the bride’s parents. Thomas died February 1968. Both are buried at Jordan’s Grove. They had three daughters, Nelevene Illini, Kathryn, Dorothy, and one son, Thomas E. "Wendell", who farmed south of Springville for several years.
5. Earl L. (September 27, 1878-December 14, 1954) married Fannie Vesta McAtee, daughter of Frank McAtee (Bk. I, F-il), who lived east of the old Kearns later Pleasant Valley (Bk. II, Schools).
6. Jessie Pearl (July 15, 1882-August 24, 1967) married Richard Allen "Dick" Bowdish, September 17, 1908, at the home of the bride’s parents. Richard died in 1967. They had a daughter, Mary Catherine, born October 13, 1915, and a son Albert, born May 1, 1918. Dick and Jessie lived on the home farm of her parents, which they bought in 1913, until their retirement to Colorado. They wanted to be near the home of their daughter and husband, Merrill Jordan (Bk. I, F-32). Albert married Pearl Engstrom and both were missionaries in India until retirement. They now live in Oklahoma (Bk. II, F-18).
It is interesting to note here that William’s son, Willis, married the granddaughter of Levi Brown Andrews who had also served in the Civil War. (Bk. IL, F-3). Also to note that George B. Aikin (Bk. II, F-I) had also served in the Civil War and to wonder if the paths of these three men had ever crossed or had they ever met during their enlistments. George B. Aikin and William FL. Goodlove were great grandfathers, respectively, of Winton Goodlove, and Levi B. Andrews was his great, great, grandfather.[59]
1992: Mujahadeen guerillas and other Islamic rebels captured the capital city of Kabul and set up a new government. [60]
