March 1, 286: Roman Emperor Diocletian raises Maximian to the rank of Caesar. Diocletian was determined to restore greatness and stability to the Roman Empire. He was far more concerned about the Christians whom he saw “as the sole cause of the dissolution of the Empire, on account of their persistent struggle against the Roman state religion and their zeal for conversion” than he was about the Jews. When he attempted to unify the empire by ordering all of those under his reign to accept his divinity and “bring sacrifices to his cult,”Diocletian exempted the Jews. The only negative note of import surrounding Diocletian and his Jewish subjects had to do with accusation that they had mocked him because of his early origins as a swineherd. Judah III, the Patriarch, actually had to appear before the Emperor while he was in Tiberias to answer the charge. Judah assured him that while some may of spoken disrespectfully of Diocletian the swineherd nobody had uttered any words of criticism against Diocletian, the emperor. The explanation assuaged Diocletian but it has been used an example of the dangers of speaking L’shon Hara.[1]
March 1, 293: Roman Emperors Diocletian and Maximian appoint Constantius Chlorus and Galerius as Caesares, thus beginning the Tetrarchy. This move on the part of Diocletian was part of an attempt to ensure a smooth transition of power after Diocletian resigned as Emperor. The plan would fail and would result in 19 years of turmoil that would end only when Constantine took the throne. For the Jews, this would mean an end to great Yeshiva at Tiberias. Those who could would flee to Caesarea where they would a haven at the yeshiva begun by Abbahu.[2]
March 1, 317: Crispus and Constantine II, sons of Roman Emperor Constantine I, and Licinius Iunior, son of Emperor Licinius, are made Caesares. Lucinius and Crispus would be killed, the latter by his father Emperor Constantine I. Constantine II would continue the anti-Jewish policies of his father. Among other things, he decreed that any Christians who converted to Judaism would forfeit their property to the state.[3]
AD 321 - Edict of Constantine -first law concerning Sunday observance
“Let all judges and townspeople and occupations of all trades rest on the Venerable Day of the Sun [Sunday] ; nevertheless, let those who are situated in the rural districts freely and with full liberty attend to the cultivation of the fields, because it frequently happens that no other day may be so fitting for ploughing grains or trenching vineyards, lest at the time the advantage of the moment granted by the provision of heaven be lost. Given on the Nones [seventh] of March, Crispus and Constantine being consuls, each of them, for the second time."-Recorded in the Code of Justinian, Book III,title 12, law 3. [16] [4][5]
AD 321 - Epistle of Constantine to the Bishops not present, concerning the need for one religion and one day of worship; apart from the Jews which he views as the murderers of Christ.
“Constantinus Augustus to the Churches. “Viewing the common public prosperity enjoyed at this moment, as the result of the great power of divine grace, I am desirous above all things that the blessed members of the Catholic Church should be preserved in one faith, in sincere love, and in one form of religion, towards Almighty God. But, since no firmer or more effective measure could be adopted to secure this end, than that of submitting everything relating to our most holy religion to the examination of all, or most of all, the bishops, I convened as many of them as possible, and took my seat among them as one of yourselves; for I would not deny that truth which is the source of my greatest joy, namely, that I am your fellow-servant. Every point obtained its due investigation, until the doctrine pleasing to the all-seeing God, and conducive to unity, was made clear, so that no room should remain for division or controversy concerning the faith. “The commemoration of the most sacred paschal feast being then debated, it was unanimously decided, that it would be well that it should be everywhere celebrated upon the same day. What can be more fair, or more seemly, than that that festival by which we have received the hope of immortality should be carefully celebrated by all, on plain grounds, with the same order and exactitude? It was, in the first place, declared improper to follow the custom of the Jews in the celebration of this holy festival, because, their hands having been stained with crime, the minds of these wretched men are necessarily blinded. By rejecting their custom, we establish and hand down to succeeding ages one which is more reasonable, and which has been observed ever since the day of our Lord’s sufferings. Let us, then, have nothing in common with the Jews, who are our adversaries. For we have received from our Saviour another way. A better and more lawful line of conduct is inculcated by our holy religion. Let us with one accord walk therein, my much-honoured brethren, studiously avoiding all contact with that evil way. They boast that without their instructions we should be unable to commemorate the festival properly. This is the highest pitch of absurdity. For how can they entertain right views on any point who, after having compassed the death of the Lord, being out of their minds, are guided not by sound reason, but by an unrestrained passion, wherever their innate madness carries them. Hence it follows that they have so far lost sight of truth, wandering as far as possible 48from the correct revisal, that they celebrate a second Passover in the same year. What motive can we have for following those who are thus confessedly unsound and in dire error? For we could never tolerate celebrating the Passover twice in one year. But even if all these facts did not exist, your own sagacity would prompt you to watch with diligence and with prayer, lest your pure minds should appear to share in the customs of a people so utterly depraved. It must also be borne in mind, that upon so important a point as the celebration of a feast of such sanctity, discord is wrong. One day has our Saviour set apart for a commemoration of our deliverance, namely, of His most holy Passion. One hath He wished His Catholic Church to be, whereof the members, though dispersed throughout the most various parts of the world, are yet nourished by one spirit, that is, by the divine will. Let your pious sagacity reflect how evil and improper it is, that days devoted by some to fasting, should be spent by others in convivial feasting; and that after the paschal feast, some are rejoicing in festivals and relaxation, while others give themselves up to the appointed fasts. That this impropriety should be rectified, and that all these diversities of commemoration should be resolved into one form, is the will of divine Providence, as I am convinced you will all perceive. Therefore, this irregularity must be corrected, in order that we may no more have any thing in common with those parricides and the murderers of our Lord. An orderly and excellent form of commemoration is observed in all the churches of the western, of the southern, and of the northern parts of the world, and by some of the eastern; this form being universally commended, I engaged that you would be ready to adopt it likewise, and thus gladly accept the rule unanimously adopted in the city of Rome, throughout Italy, in all Africa, in Egypt, the Spains, the Gauls, the Britains, Libya, Greece, in the dioceses of Asia, and of Pontus, and in Cilicia, taking into your consideration not only that the churches of the places above-mentioned are greater in point of number, but also that it is most pious that all should unanimously agree in that course which accurate reasoning seems to demand, and which has no single point in common with the perjury of the Jews. “Briefly to summarize the whole of the preceding, the judgment of all is, that the holy Paschal feast should be held on one and the same day; for, in so holy a matter, it is not becoming that any difference of custom should exist, and it is better to follow the opinion which has not the least association with error and sin. This being the case, receive with gladness the heavenly gift and the plainly divine command; for all that is transacted in the holy councils of the bishops is to be referred to the Divine will. Therefore, when you have made known to all our beloved brethren the subject of this epistle, regard yourselves bound to accept what has gone before, and to arrange for the regular observance of this holy day, so that when, according to my long-cherished desire, I shall see you face to face, I may be able to celebrate with you this holy festival upon one and the same day; and may rejoice with you all in witnessing the cruelty of the devil destroyed by our efforts, through Divine grace, while our faith and peace and concord flourish throughout the world. May God preserve you, beloved brethren.” [17] [6][7]

March 1, 1349 (Adar 10): Riots broke out in Worms (Germany). Many Jews fled to Heidelberg. Others in desperation set fire to their homes or were murdered. An estimated 420 people died that day. Their property was seized by the town.[9]
March 1, 1349: Three thousand Jews were killed in Black Death riots in Efurt Germany. This was one of only a series of wholesale murders of Jews that took place in Germany in 1349. The Jews provided a convenient scapegoat for the Black Death. In some places they were accused of poisoning the wells which supposedly caused the plague. Since The Black Death provided an interesting excuse of murdering Jews, the following few summary will prove useful when we get to it our study of Jewish History during the Middle Ages. "A Genoese trading post in the Crimea was besieged by an army of Kipchaks from Hungary and Mongols from the East. The latter brought with them a new form of plague. Infected dead bodies were catapulted into the Genoese town. One Genoese ship managed to escape and brought the disease to Messina, in Sicily. From this time forth the disease became an epidemic. It moved over the next few years to northern Italy, North Africa, France, Spain, Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, Germany, the Low Countries, England, Scandinavia and the Baltic. There were lesser outbreaks in many cities for the next twenty years. An estimated 25 million died in Europe and economic depression followed."

1349: After a mob marched into the Jewish quarter in Erfurt, Germany, carrying a flag with a cross the Jews tried to defend themselves. Over a hundred Jews were killed and much of the ghetto burned.[10]

March 1, 1781: Virginia was the only state to ratify the Articles by the 1778 deadline. Most states wished to place conditions on ratification, which Congress refused to accept. Ten further states ratified during the summer of 1778, but small states with big neighbors and no land claims--Delaware, New Jersey and Maryland--still refused. Maryland held out the longest, only ratifying the Articles after Virginia relinquished its claims on land north of the Ohio River to Congress. The Articles finally took effect on March 1, 1781.
The problematic Articles of Confederation remained the law of the land for only eight years before the Constitutional Convention rejected them in favor of a new, more centralized form of federal government. They crafted the current U.S. Constitution, which took effect in 1789, giving the federal government greater authority over the states and creating a bicameral legislature.[35]
March 1, 1784: "In Tyrone Township, Fayette County, Pa., Charles Harrison’s neighbors were: William Harrison, William Crawfordd, Tom. Moore—_single, Tom Git, Nicholas Dawson, Uriah Springer and Joseph Vance." (Pa. Arch. S. 3, Vol. 22, p. 50) This quotation is quite enlightening, because it shows that Charles Harrison was still with his own relatives. To clarify this statement, each name will be mentioned: William Harrison was his nephew, the very famous Major William Harrison who was burned at the stake by the Wyandotte and Moravian Indians, that massacre, under Colonel William Crawford, who led it, June 11, 1782, and was also killed. Major William Harrison had married Sarah Crawford, a daughter of Colonel William Crawford. Following the death of Major William Harrison, his widow, Sarah (Crawford) Harrison, married Uriah Springer, who had come from Virginia to Fayette County, Pa. Colonel William Crawford, from Westmoreland County, Virginia, was a son of Hugh Crawford and his wife, Honore Vance. Colonel Crawford was authorized by George Washington to select, as his surveyor, favorable sites for himself and his brothers, Samuel and John Augustine Washington. [36]Thomas Gist was a son of Christopher Gist who was visited by George Washington. Christopher Gist was a member of the Ohio Company in 1753. His 2309 acre estate, known as "Mount Braddock," in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, was inherited by his son, Thomas Gist and after his death, was acquired by Colonel Isaac Meason.[37]After the death of Thomas Gist, his family went to Kentucky. Tom. Moore was the Captain Moore who married Mary Harrison, born 1761; died February 7, 1836, a daughter of Lawrence and Catheren Harrison. He was born in Kent County, Maryland in 1745; died October 20, 1823, in Harrison County, Kentucky; buried next to his wife in Poindexter Village, near Cynthiana. Joseph Vance, whose connections have not been gone into, was no doubt a relative of Honore Vance who married Hugh Crawford. All goes to show these families stuck together in early times. It appears that when the exploitation of lands in the Virginia County of Augusta, later Fayette County, Pennsylvania, was over, a number of persons, including Harrisons, went down the Ohio River to Limestone, now Maysville and up the Licking River to Cynthiana and Paris, Kentucky. They are found in Louisville and south of it on the Salt Licks and Salt River. To prove this, it is noted, in looking over the will of Major William Harrison, nephew of Charles Harrison, dated May 16, 1782; proven March 1, 1784: "It is my further will that the four thousand acres of land located in my name on Licking Creek, in the State of Virginia, be divided and distributed in manner, viz: First, I do give and bequeath unto my much beloved wife, Sarah, five hundred acres during her natural life, at the expiration of which, I desire they be sold and the money equally divided amongst my children or heirs of their body lawfully begotten." (Union-town, Pennsylvania, Court House, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, Orphans Court, Book 1, Page 6, transferred to Book, Page 3.) This will says further: 500 acres to my brother, Benjamin Harrison and the remaining three thousand be divided amongst his children. This land, described as in Virginia, eventually turned out to be located in Kentucky. [38]
March 1, 1784: Major William Harrison’s will (5th great grandfather) was dated May 16, 1782; proven March 1, 1784; and recorded in Uniontown, Fayette County, Pa. [39]
Following his death, his widow Sarah (Crawford) Harrison, married Uriah Springer, who came to Fayette County, Pennsylvania, from Virginia.[40]

March 1. Jefferson submits to Congress his Report of a Plan of Government for the Western Territory, establishing procedures for the entrance of new states. In it, Jefferson proposes that slavery be abolished in new states by 1800. Congress rejects this part of the plan and passes the revised Ordinance April 23. Jefferson blames Southern representatives for Congress's rejection of his original plan. The Ordinance of 1784 marks the high point of Jefferson's opposition to slavery, which is more muted thereafter. Printed Resolutions on Western Territory, March 1, 1784[42]

He was chief owner of the land and donated many lots to the county, under condition that their proceeds be devoted to public improvements. Joseph Vance[49] and George Fithian were the first settlers. [50] By the third section of the act which fixed the limits of the county, the house of George Fithian, in Springfield, was made the temporary seat of justice, at which place the first term of the Court of Common Pleas was helde. The officers of the court were Francis Dunlevfy, President Judge; John Reynolds, Samuel McCullough and John Runyon, Associate Judges; Arthur St. Clair, Prosecuting Attorney; John Doughterty, Sheriff, ; Joseph C.
