January 28, 814: Charlemagne passed away. The grandson of Charles Martel was one of the greatest European rulers during the Dark Ages. There was nothing Dark about his treatment of the Jews. For the most part, he ignored canon law and the wishes of the Pope and treated the Jews of his realm rather decently.[1]

815-820: His real name was probably Manasseh (in Arabic, Misha). Latin translators named him Messahala (with many variants, as Macellama, Macelarma). Mashallah is a contraction of ma'aha Allah meaning "What wonders Allah has willed." (What hath God wrought.) Flourished under al-Mansur, died c. 815 or 820. One of the earliest astronomers and astrologers in Islam, himself an Egyptian (?) Jew. Only one of his writings is extant in Arabic, but there are many mediaeval Latin and Hebrew translations. The Arabic text extant deals with the prices of wares and is the earliest book of its kind in that language. He took part with the Persian astrologer al-Naubakht in the surveying preliminary to the foundation of Baghdad in 762-63. His most popular book in the Middle Ages was the 'De scientia motus orbis', translated by Gherardo Cremonese.
Text and Translation. The De scientia motus orbis is probably the treatise called in Arabic "the twenty-seventh;" printed in Nuremberg 1501, 1549. The second edition is entitled: 'De elementis et orbibus coelestibus', and contains 27 chapters. The De compositione et utilitate astrolabii was included in Gregor Reisch: Margarita phylosophica (ed. pr., Freiburg, 1503; Suter says the text is included in the Basel edition of 1583). Other astronomical and astrological writings are quoted by Suter and Steinsehneider.
An Irish astronomical tract based in part on a mediaeval Latin version of a world by Messahalah. Edited with preface, translation, and glossary, by Afaula Power (Irish Texts Society, vol. 14, 194 p., 1914. A relatively modern translation of the De scientia motus orbis, the preface is uncritical).[2]

815-912: Between 815 and 912, experts sifted through thousands of stories, creating six collections of Hadith. [3]

• “Then we followed up these messengers

• With Jesus, son of Mary,

• To whom we gave the gospel,

• And we put in the

• Hearts of his followers

• Kindness and mercy”

• Koran 57:27

• January 28, 1077: As a result of an event called the Walk to Canossa, Pope Gregory VII lifted he excommunication of Henry IV, Holy Roman Emperor. This was part of the struggle between the Church and the temporal rulers as to who would be the final voice of authority in Europe. Jews could not have taken comfort in this apparent success of Gregory over Henry. Gregory was hostile to Jewish interest. This can be seen in his letter to King Alfonso forbidding Jews to hold public office or to “have power over Christians.” Furthermore, he ordered the King to have the Jews pay special “Jew Taxes” throughout his kingdom. Henry was protective of his Jewish subjects. He issued charters to the Jews of Speyer and Worms allowing them to trade in these cities and to practice their religion according to their laws and practices. Furthermore, during the Crusades, he defied Christian doctrine and the Pope, by supporting the right of Jews who had been forced to convert “to disregard their baptism and return to Judaism.”[4]

• 1078: Council of Gerona decreas Jews to pay taxes for support of the Catholic Church to the same extent as Christians.[5] Death of Michael VII the Byzantine Emperor, death of Geza I king of Hungary, Nicephorus III becomes Eastern Emperor, death of Michael Psellos the Byzantine Platonist philosopher, Tower of London started. [6]

• 1079: Tutush, the brother of Malik Shahg arranged for Atsiz’s murder and by 1079 was ruler of all Syria south of Aleppo, with his lieutenant Ortoq as his viceroy in Jerusalem. Between them they established a fairly orderly state in the cities. But the roads were still infested by bandits. [7]Frederick of Staufen marries daughter of Henry IV and is made Duke of Swabia, founding of Newcastle, Death of Boleslav II of POL, William begins constructing Winchester Cathedral, son Robert rebels in Normandy, but is defeated, Peter Abelard theologian and philosopher born, Abelard (educator) father of the idea that reason precedes faith is born. [8]

• 1080: By 1080 the whole of Asia Minor was in Turkish hands except for the Black Sea coast and districts in the southwestern corner of the peninsula. Sultuan Suleiman had penetrated to the Sea of Marmora and had established his capital int e venerable city of Nicaea, less than a hundred miles from Constantinople. His territory included most of the centre of the peninsula. [9]

•

• 1080: The most original creations of this time were made in the field of mathematics by Muslims, and the most original genius among those to whom we owe these creations was the Persian Omar Khayyam. It is thus very appropriate to call this time the Time of Omar Khayyam, as Omar is already very well known to a large number of readers. It is probable that his name is more familiar to them than that of any other Muslim scientist. It will thus be relatively easy to remember the title, and I trust that this remembrance will reach to some extent the contents of the following pages. The time of Omar Khayyam was the end of the golden age of Muslim science.

A new Muslim sect, that of the Assassins, an off-shoot of the Ismailiya movement, originated in Cairo about 1080.
They took possession of the fortress of Alamut, which remained their main stronghold for a century and a half. Alamut seems to have been also a center of learning.
The Muslim philosopher who has obtained the largest following in the West, in fact the only one who has become at all popular, is the persian poet and sufi Omar Khayyam. On the other hand, one of Omar's contemporaries, al-Ghazzali, was the greatest theologian of Islam. He might be compared to Thomas Aquinas, to whom he was in many ways superior. Al-Ghazzali was also a Persian and spent part of his life in Omar's native place, Nishabur. While Omar Khayyam is the most popular figure of mediaeval times, al-Ghazzali is probably the noblest.[10]



• 1080: AL-ZARQALI

In Latin : Arzachel. Abu Ishaq Ibrahim ibn Yahya al-Naqqash, the engraver. Better known as Ibn al-Zarqali. From Cordova, lived from c.1029 to c.1080. Astronomer. The best observer of his time (observations dated 1061, 1080).
He invented an improved astrolabe called safiham (saphaea Arzachelis); his description of it was translated into Latin, Hebrew, and many vernaculars. He was the first to prove explicitly the motion of the solar apogee with reference to the stars; according to his measurements it amounted to 12.04" per year (the real value being 11.8").
On the other hand, comparing his observation of the obliquity of the ecliptic with previous ones, he concluded that it oscillated between 23o 33' and 23o 53', thus reenforcing the erroneous belief in the "trepidation" of the equinoxes. He edited the so-called Toledan Tables, planetary tables based upon the observations made by him and probably other Muslim and Jewish astronomers in Toledo (notably Ibn Sa'íd).
These tables were translated into Latin by Gherardo Cremonese and enjoyed much popularity. The trigonometrical introduction (Canones sive regulae tabularum astronomiae) was al- Zarqali's own work; it explains the construction of the trigonometrical tables.[11]

• 1081: In 1081 the throne at Constantinople was taken over by a young general, Alexius Comnenus, who was to reign for thirty seven years and to prove the greatest statesman of his time. [13] The state of the Empire in 1081 was such that only a man of great courage or great stupidity would have undertaken its government. The treasury was empty. Recent Emperors had been spendthrift. The loss of Anatolia and rebellions in Europe had seriously diminished the revenue. The old system of tax collection had broken down. [14] Death of Boleslav II of Poland, death of Nicephorus III as Byzantine Emperor, Henry IV marches into Italy, Robert Guiscard incades the Balkans, rebuilding of Mainz Cathedral, commercial treaty between Venice and Byzantium, Alexius I Comnenus becomes Byzantine Emperor to 1118, Venetians negotiate trade privileges in Constantinople.

January 28, 1119: Pope Gelasius II dies. [16]

January 28th, 1521 - The Diet of Worms begins, lasting until May 25.[17]

January 28, 1547: King Henry VIII dies in the early hours of January 28, 1547. He weighs nearly 400 pounds. Doctors reported that he had badly ulcerated legs, he was unable to walk, his sight was fading, and he suffered from paranoia and melancholy.[18] When seeking to divorce his first wife and marry Anne Boleyn, Henry sought to make use of Biblical law in his fight with Rome. He thought that Rabbis, learned in the matter, might be of some help. Since Jews were not supposed to be living in England, Henry was forced to seek out Rabbis living in Italy. While the Rabbis offered some help, they were loathe to give too much assistance to a monarch in far away England lest they offend and anger the Pope who could make miserable for the Jews of Italy.[19]

January 28, 1573: Articles of the Warsaw Confederation are signed, sanctioning freedom of religion in Poland. The primary beneficiaries of the document were competing Christian groups – Catholic, Lutheran and Orthodox. Jews continued to enjoy the benefits of The General Charter of Jewish Liberties known as the Statute of Kalisz that had been promulgated at the end of the 13th century.[20]

January 28, 1668: Pope Clement IX canceled the humiliating forced races known as the Palio. During the Plaio near naked Jews were forced to run through the streets of Rome during carnival time. In return for the revocation the Jews of Rome had to pay a special cancellation tax of 200 ducats. This tax was paid for almost 200 years.[21]

1669 Jews expelled from Oran (North Africa).[22]


1669: In 1669 new regulations of 59 Articles to the Edict brought new restrictions on the Huguenots.[23]

January 28, 1717: Birthdate of Mustafa III. During his reign, the Ottoman Empire continued to decline as a world power and became less accepting of non-Moslems. Mustafa personally helped to enforce the decrees regarding clothing that could be worn by his subjects. “In 1758, he was walking incognito in Istanbul and ordered the beheading of a Jew and an Armenian seen dressed in forbidden attire.”[24]

January 28, 1772: – A storm on this date was named the Washington and Jefferson Snow Storm since both of their diaries recorded it. The storm left 36 inches of snow (3 feet) in central and northern Virginia and the area that is now Washington DC. Official weather records did not begin until after the Civil War. Therefore, this storm is not listed as the record, but it was the largest snow for this area ever noted.[25]

· January 28, 1777

· After Colonel William Crawford came back to his plantation at Connellsville from an earlier service in the east, he and Colonel Pentecost, and Major Edward Ward became a triumvirate that was able to handle the situation of the western frontier, aided by Colonel David Shepherd in the Wheeling Creek Valley. This district was known as West Augusta in the Virginia military organization, and at an important council of war held at Catfish Camp on January 28, 1777, there were present Colonel Dorsey Pentecost, County Lieutenant, Colonel John Canon, Lieutenant-Colonel Isaac Cox, and Major Henry Taylor, for Yohogania County; Colonel David Shepherd, County Lieutenant, Colonel Silas Hedges, Lieutenant-Colonel David McClure, and Major Samuel McCulloch, for Ohio County; and Colonel Zackwell Morgan, County Lieutenant, and Major John Evans for Monongalia County.

· January 28, 1777: John Burgoyne, poet, playwright and British general, submits an ill-fated plan to the British government to isolate New England from the other colonies on this day in 1777.

· Burgoyne's plan revolved around an invasion of 8,000 British troops from Canada, who would move southward through New York by way of Lake Champlain and the Mohawk River, taking the Americans by surprise. General Burgoyne believed he and his troops could then take control of the Hudson River and isolate New England from the other colonies, freeing British General William Howe to attack Philadelphia.

· General Burgoyne's plan went into effect during the summer of 1777 and was initially a success—the British captured Fort Ticonderoga on June 2, 1777. However, the early success failed to lead to victory, as Burgoyne overextended his supply chain, which stretched in a long, narrow strip from the northern tip of Lake Champlain south to the northern curve of the Hudson River at Fort Edward, New York. As Burgoyne's army marched south, Patriot militia circled north, cutting the British supply line.

· Burgoyne then suffered defeat in Bennington, Vermont, and bloody draws at Bemis Heights, New York. On October 17, 1777, a frustrated Burgoyne retreated 10 miles and surrendered his remaining 6,000 British forces to the Patriots at Saratoga. Upon hearing of the Patriot victory, France agreed to recognize the independence of the United States. It was, of course, France's eventual support that enabled the Patriots' ultimate victory.

· The defeat at Saratoga led to General Burgoyne's downfall. He returned to England, where he faced severe criticism and soon retired from active service.[29]


· January 28, 1780: Up to January 28th the wind remained changeab1e, but we gained more than we lost. About ten o’clock at night, to our great joy, the wind turned NE and the course SW. We sailed five to six miles in one hour. [30]

Robert B. Vance to Zebulon B. Vance

Shelbyville, Tenn.


Dear Brother:

Your letter afforded much pleasure, and bro’t vividly to mind times that are past & gone never to return. In all the ups and downs that have befallen us in this life, I have never forgotten our boyhood. The Old farm & orchard, the roaring French Broad, the rocky mountains, the fishing frolics and mad swimming spells in the river-these all occur to my mind often, and I think how changed things are now. “When I was a child, I tho’t as a child & spake as a child, but now that I am a man, I have put away childish things.” Previous to getting your letter I had written you touching the Brigadiers place, stating that 39th, N.C. was with me.[33]Since then I have also asked for the 60th. N.C. approved Maj Gen McCown & I judge by Gen Cheatam, comdg our corps at present. Iam obliged to you for getting the Legislature to interfere, alth the petition may not carry the point. A letter from you to Genl Bragg would have weight. If it did not get my Brigadier commission, it would at least (I think) keep me in command of the Brigade. We have no news of importance. There was pretty warm firing this morning on the Murfreesboro pike, but what caused it we cannot tell. Morgan, Wheeler, Forrest & Wharton are on the alert & it will be hard to trap them. The Yankees will find it difficult to advance now, as the roads are awful. This shows the wisdom and sagacity of Gen Braggs movements. It would seem as if our falling back was unfortunate, but I think it was wise. The enemy to Murfreesboro had fine pikes from all directions & was closer to his base. Here he will soon strike dirt roads & and the worst in the world, besides the country is eat up. Welll we are of necessity now a defensive army, and when the enemy advances he will have to bring his supplies 55 miles, which is a heavy job and gives or cavalry a chance to give them “fits.” So mote it be. Gen Bragg’s Head qrs /are/ at Tullahonia Tenn. I am very pleasantly situated now-have a nice tent, stove, bedstead, table &c and a fine Adjutant General. John Davidson[34] is near by and is as cheerful as ever. Harvey[35] is at Murfreesboro sick and wounded. I will write again soon. Judge Davidson[36] says never to mind that “waning”; that all will be right. Go ahead as you have began and my word for it all will be right. Tell sister Hattie[37] to write if you are busy.

My love to all,

Affectionately

Robert [38]

My Dear Sir,

The bearer Lt Poindexter C.S.N. has been again to see me about the iron at B[illegible]’s Station. I have offered the Secy. Of the Navy[40] all the iron on your Road from Kinston to New Berne, if they would only go and get it-That , at B[illegible]’s station, I have understood you to say was necessary gfor repairting the roads and have refused to let it go on that accournt-I have referred the Lieutenant to you, if the iron is necessary to the efficiency of oour roads, refuse to let it go, if you can do without it, let them have it. It seems to me though that the GGovernment is able to get up that from below Kinston if half an effort was made.



Truly Yrs

My dear Sir

Yours by Lieut. Commanding Poindexter C.S.N. has been recd. In regard to iron for the completion fo the gun boats on the Roanoke.

The question is an interesting one to me indeed. I have offered the whole of the iron of the Atlantic and N.C. Road within our lines below Kinston, some fifteen miles, but this you say cannot be got for want of transportation

The small amt. at [blank] Station, not enough for your purposes, is held by Col Whitford the Prest. For the repairs of his own and out other roads who have no reserved iron; and our roads as you are aware are fast wearing down under the great amount of running they are compelled to do. Such being the case, you may perceive my embarrassment-I am of course exceedingly anxious for the completion of the boats And the railroad men say to give up this Iron would soon render it impossible for them to repair and in case of such an accident (by no means unusual) as the burning of a bridge they would be powerless to rebuild. I have referred Lt. P. to Col Whitford again instructing him to give up the iron if in his opinion it can be safely done, otherwise to retain it.

I know what else to do for the best.

I am still confident in the opinion that on a proper application to Gen. Smith, the iron below Kinston could be secured and if so the whole difficulty would be solved.


Most Respectfully

& Truly Yrs

Jacob Siler Esq
Agt for Cherokee Lands

My dear Sir

Your letter for the 19th has been received, making enquiry as to the manner of disposing of the funds in your hands under different acts of the legislature.

I am of the opinion that you should meet the appropriation made by the act of the present Session the language of the act itself would seem to imply as much, and the purpose of the appropriation-the repairs of certain bridges-would seem to intend an immediate and absolute expenditure of the money, and not that it should depend on some contingency.

I will sustain you in this construction at all events.



Most respectfully & truly

Z.B. Vance[45]



January 28, 1864: Hunter, Franklin C. Age 18. Residence Linn County, nativity Ohio. Enlisted January 4, 1864. Mustered January 28, 1864. Mustered out July 17, 1865, Savannah, Ga. http://iagenweb.org/civilwar/books/logan/mil508.htm

January 28, 1865: The regiment, after most of the shells had ignited, aided fighting the resulting fires, despite the danger of further explosions. Savannah presented a sad picture the nest morning Six blocks had burned before the fire could be controlled. The city, with its wide oak shaded streets, beautiful homes, and impressive public buildings, boasted of a theater, three academies, thirteen churches, and eighteen lovely parks, all of which had impressed the Iowans.[46]

January 28th 1865: I was detailed to go on picket. We could hear the shells explode in the ruins all day long and several through the night.[47]

It was a very cold night. It froze ice a half inch thick.[48]

Panic stricken women, children and negroes were hurrying frantically from the missiles of death. Although the fragments were falling all about our quarters aq number of women took refuge in them and felt themselves safe. I suppose for the reason that we took the shelling too coolly.[49]

Breaking the Circle, 1904
[51]

1904: Second Aliya (wave of immigration) - young socialist immigrants (1904-1914). Catalyzed by pogroms and a coincidental wave of arrests in Russia preceding and following the 1905 revolution. Herzl dies. Vaad Halahshon founded by Eliezer Ben Yehuda to popularize Hebrew as the language of the Jewish people.[52]



On the history of the synagogue

1904: A synagogue of unknown age was present in Werneck. She was the center of Jewish community life in the place until around 1900. After the dissolution of the Jewish community in 1904, the synagogue was closed. The made of sandstone and in oil paint Aron-HA Kodesh (Tor ash clean) the synagogue Werneck went to the 1906/07 newly built synagogue in Geroda, which was solemnly inaugurated on August 16, 1907. In the destruction of the Interior of the synagogue in Geroda is likely to have been destroyed probably the Wernecker gate buchserstrasse clean.

Address/location of the synagogue: the grounds behind the present building Schönborn Street 3 (former main road 23)

Photos

The former synagogue in Werneck from demolition 1976 (preserved by Manfred Fuchs, Werneck)

To the photo above notes by M. Fuchs with a description of the situation today: "the high building far left still stands, in apartments and a shop are housed at present (2008)." The hidden building also stands in the background also still (today Schönborn road 3). The building in the Center is the House where the synagogue was once housed (address at that time: hauptstraße 23)-it was at the front of the building (Schönbornstraße 3, formerly the main road 22) grown. Most recently it was leased to various private individuals until the cessation approx. 1977-. "The small house under the tree which the former bath house, which was torn down along with the former synagogue."

Chronicle of the Jewish community of Werneck

The "Chronicle of Werneck's Jewish community" is to bookmark in Werneck, in the Town Hall Werneck at checkout or I relate at the Bookstore (all other brochures also). Still the shipping costs (Büchersendung) come in addition to the price of 6.80 € for the 124-page brochure by post. To the information follows the table of contents as well as the persons and places index. I naturally like to give more information. [54]

January 28, 1938: The Palestine Post published a major study on the extent of the 'Octopus of Nazi Propaganda in Syria.' There were two major German propaganda centers in the Middle East: one in Cairo for Egypt, Sudan, Palestine and Transjordan, and the second in Baghdad, for Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. The Germans proved to be masters in the art of propaganda and anti-Semitic incitement spread by their well-trained agents and maintained a number of exclusive, influential clubs in major cities. Large bribes were handed over for the 'Arab victims of the Jewish aggression in Palestine.[65]



January 28, 1941

Helmut Knochen, the SiPo-SD commander in France, asks the German military administration for the creation of internment camps for foreign Jews in the Occupied Zone. Knochen cites the precedent of the Vichy law permitting prefects to detain foreign Jews and the existence of a large number of such camps in the Vichy Zone.[66]

January 28, 1942: For two more days, the two task forces cruised northwest together, the most notable event being Enterprise refueling underway the night of January 28. Under the best conditions - in daylight - refueling underway is a dangerous, exacting task. On this day, the oiler Platte did not finish refueling the other ships in TF 8 until after sunset. Enterprise eased alongside Platte at 1600 that night and steamed at her side for the next five-and-half-hours, the first capital ship in history to refuel underway at night. In another two years, this capability - refined and repeated until it was a matter of course - would enable US Navy warships to operate far from friendly anchorages for a month or more at a time, but on this night minds were on more immediate concerns. (Uncle Howard Snell, Pearl Harbor survivor, was on board the Enterprise this day.) [67]

January 28, 1943: Over the next 3 days, ten thousand Jews from Pruzhany, Belorussia, are deported to Auschwitz.[68]

January 28, 1943: Knochen telexed to all the regional Gestapo offices: arrest all deportable Jews and transfer them to Drancy. Thus, for example, on January 28, 170 persons arrived from Bordeau (XXVc-198);

January 28, 1949: Israel was recognized (diplomatically) by Australia, Belgium, Chile, Great Britain, Holland, Luxembourg, and New Zealand.[69]



January 28, 1986: One minute 13 seconds after liftoff on January 28, 1986, the space shuttle Challenger, engulfed in a fireball of leaked hydrogen fuel, breaks apart and falls to Earth. The crew, including the first “teacher in space” Christa McAuliffe, perishes. Investigators blame a failure of the O-ring on a solid rocket booster and fault NASA for ignoring engineering concers. After 30 years and 134 missions, and the loss of a second shuttle and crew in 2003, the shuttle program is scheduled to end after a final flight in February 2011.[70]

Andrew Dye




·



















Birth:


Jun. 13, 1744
Middlesex County
New Jersey, USA




Death:


Jul. 5, 1835
Miami County
Ohio, USA





Andrew was born in Middlesex County, NJ in either 1744, which agrees with his tombstone, or 1748 based on a record that he was baptized in Christ Church, Shrewsbury, Monmouth County, NJ, 3 Jan 1749, age seven months. He was the son of James and Sarah Dye.

His first wife was Sarah Minor, a daughter of Stephen and Athaliah (Updyke) Minor, who died in PA. Their children were: James, Stephen, John M., Andrew A., Frances, Benjamin, Samuel, Vincent, Rachel, William, and Jany.

His second wife was Ann Lamb Evans, who was born 11 April 1767, and died 7 Jan 1843.

Andrew and his family came to PA in 1771. On 28 March 1780 he was recommended as first lieutenant in the Yohogania Co. militia, but there is no further mention of his position, since by the fall of 1780, Andrew had resettled across the Monongahela on Big Whitely Creek where, where in May 1785, he had warranted to him a tract of land under the title "Sparrows Nest."

During the Revolution he was soldier in the Pennsylvania Line (Penna. Arch. Series VI Vol 3, pp 1367) for which service he received a pension.

[27] Evidently, Mark (Marquis) Stephenson waited until the fulfillment of his obligations to his mother, then he and his mamily also began to plan for a westward move. The sale took place about 1777, when we may calculate widow Stephenson’s death, to be that year or a little before, when she passed away and was buried near her husband, who found his final resting place about eleven years before.

It is here, we find the ‘Old Homestead’ falling into the hands of strangers. The deed describes it to have, houses, buildings, woods, paths, water courses, meadows, trees, orchards and gardens. A place of beautiful memories, with excellent southern culture. A place weathered by wars, births and deaths of the two families, rich in colonial American history; reflectin the Spirit of Seventy-Six from its very core, which penetrated the souls of these two families and the hearts of their descendants to follow, for more than two hundred years.
