March 17, 45 BCE: Julius Caesar defeated the forces of Pompey at the Battle of Monad. Caesar’s victory put an end to the Pompeian attempt to rule Rome. Considering the way Pompey treated the Jews, Caesar’s victory was the preferable outcome.[1]
March 17, 180: Antonius Marcus Aurelius Emperor of Rome passed away at the age of 58. The author of Meditations was known as a wise philosopher-king. However, he had little use for the Jews. While traveling in Judea, he described the Jews as "Stinking and tumultuous." He reportedly expressed a preference for the Teutonic barbarians whom he was fighting on the border between Gaul and Germania.[2]
193 - 211 LUCIUS SEPTIMIUS SEVERUS (Roman Empire)
Numbered as one of the emperors friendly to the Jews. Part of his attitude was in response to the support he received from the Jewish communities in his war against Pescennius Niger, who had once told a Jewish delegation that he was sorry he couldn't tax the air they breathed. In spite of this, Severus forbade Jews from converting anyone to Judaism. Under his reign Jews could be appointed to public offices, but were exempt from those formalities which were contrary to Judaism. [3]
197 A.D.: “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the church,” wrote a Roman named Tertullian, who became a Christian in 197.[4]
End of the Second Century: Two hundred thousand people called themselves Christians.[5] There was no official New Testament. The early Christians fervently embraced a myriad of scriptures, very few of which would be recognized as Christian theology today, and many that advocated what most contemporary Christians would deem heretical. Because many early Christians were pagan converts, some Christian sects believed in multiple gods-two, twelve, thirty.[6]
200 C.E.
Around 200 E.E. a rabbi known a s Judah the Prince collected and edited the oral law into a text that became known as the Mishnah. The Mishnah preserved just the oral law, without providing citations from the scriptures to explain the law. [7] The Rabbinic corpus in the Land of Israel and the east remained oral for a considerable period of time, hence the designation, even today, of this corpus as the Oral Law despite the fact that it is written down. The Mishnah, the earliest rabbinic corpus, was not published until about 200 C.E. but written down only much later.[8]
200 - 275 SIMEON BEN LAKISH (Resh Lakish) (Eretz Israel)
Studied under Judah HaNasi and was known for his mental and physical prowess. According to the Talmud, he had once been a gladiator and was brought back to Judaism by Johanan bar Nappaha. He was outspoken and very independent. He viewed the story of Job as a moral creation or parable, and the names of the angels as being of Persian rather than Jewish origin. [9]
The Ark of the Covenant had been lost for more than a millennium when this third-century carving was made. But the essential idea of the covenant has never been lost: a mutually binding relationship between God and humankind.[10]
The priesthood of Aaron, the Ark of the Covenant, and sacrificial animals are depited in this Dura-Europos fresco dating from the third century C.E. By this time, however, synagogue worship had irrevocably supplanted the sacrificial cult.[11]
3rd Century: But Saturn also had a less benevolent aspect. Another of his consorts was Lua, sometimes called Lua Saturni ("Saturn's Lua") and identified with Lua Mater, "Mother Destruction," a goddess in whose honor the weapons of enemies killed in war were burned, perhaps as expiation.[67] Saturn's chthonic nature connected him to the underworld and its ruler Dis Pater, the Roman equivalent of Greek Plouton (Pluto in Latin) who was also a god of hidden wealth.[68] In 3rd-century AD sources and later, Saturn is recorded as receiving dead gladiators as offerings (munera) during or near the Saturnalia.[69] These gladiatorial events, ten days in all throughout December, were presented by the quaestors and sponsored with funds from the treasury of Saturn.[70] The practice of gladiatorial munera was criticized by Christian apologists as a form of human sacrifice.[71] Although there is no evidence of this practice during the Republic, the offering of gladiators led to later theorizing that the primeval Saturn had demanded human victims. Macrobius says that Dis Pater was placated with human heads and Saturn with sacrificial victims consisting of men (virorum victimis).[72] The figurines that were exchanged as gifts (sigillaria) may have represented token substitutes.[73]
Roman disc in silver depicting Sol Invictus (from Pessinus in Phrygia, 3rd century AD)
The Neoplatonic philosopher Porphyry, however, took an allegorical view of the Saturnalia. He saw the the festival's theme of liberation and dissolution as representing the "freeing of souls into immortality"—an interpretation that Mithraists also may have followed, since they included a significant number of slaves and freedmen.[74] According to Porphyry, the Saturnalia occurred near the winter solstice because the sun enters Capricorn, the astrological house of Saturn, at that time.[75] In the Saturnalia of Macrobius, the proximity of the Saturnalia to the winter solstice leads to an exposition of solar monotheism,[76] the belief that the Sun (see Sol Invictus) ultimately encompasses all divinities as one. Perceived relations among the Mithraic mysteries, the Dies Natalis of Sol Invictus (the "Birthday of the Unconquered Sun") on December 25, and the Christian Nativity as celebrated in December are a matter of longstanding and complex scholarly debate.
The Mishna and Talmud (Avodah Zara 8a) describe a pagan festival called Saturna which occurs 8 days before the winter solstice. It is followed 8 days after the solstice with a festival called Kalenda. The Talmud ascribes the origins of this festival to Adam, who saw that the days were getting shorter and thought it was punishment for his sin. He was afraid that the world was returning to the chaos and emptiness that existed before creation. He sat and fasted for 8 days. Once he saw that the days were getting longer again he realized that this was the natural cycle of the world, so made 8 days of celebration. The Talmud states that this festival was later turned into a pagan festival.[77][78][12]
March 17, 461: On this day in 461 A.D., Saint Patrick, Christian missionary, bishop and apostle of Ireland, dies at Saul, Downpatrick, Ireland.
Much of what is known about Patrick's legendary life comes from the Confessio, a book he wrote during his last years. Born in Great Britain, probably in Scotland, to a well-to-do Christian family of Roman citizenship, Patrick was captured and enslaved at age 16 by Irish marauders. For the next six years, he worked as a herder in Ireland, turning to a deepening religious faith for comfort. Following the counsel of a voice he heard in a dream one night, he escaped and found passage on a ship to Britain, where he was eventually reunited with his family.
According to the Confessio, in Britain Patrick had another dream, in which an individual named Victoricus gave him a letter, entitled "The Voice of the Irish." As he read it, Patrick seemed to hear the voices of Irishmen pleading him to return to their country and walk among them once more. After studying for the priesthood, Patrick was ordained a bishop. He arrived in Ireland in 433 and began preaching the Gospel, converting many thousands of Irish and building churches around the country. After 40 years of living in poverty, teaching, traveling and working tirelessly, Patrick died on March 17, 461 in Saul, where he had built his first church.
Since that time, countless legends have grown up around Patrick. Made the patron saint of Ireland, he is said to have baptized hundreds of people on a single day, and to have used a three-leaf clover--the famous shamrock--to describe the Holy Trinity. In art, he is often portrayed trampling on snakes, in accordance with the belief that he drove those reptiles out of Ireland. For thousands of years, the Irish have observed the day of Saint Patrick's death as a religious holiday, attending church in the morning and celebrating with food and drink in the afternoon. The first St. Patrick's Day parade, though, took place not in Ireland, but the United States, when Irish soldiers serving in the English military marched through New York City in 1762. As the years went on, the parades became a show of unity and strength for persecuted Irish-American immigrants, and then a popular celebration of Irish-American heritage. The party went global in 1995, when the Irish government began a large-scale campaign to market St. Patrick's Day as a way of driving tourism and showcasing Ireland's many charms to the rest of the world. Today, March 17 is a day of international celebration, as millions of people around the globe put on their best green clothing to drink beer, watch parades and toast the luck of the Irish.[13]
465 A.D.: Council of Vannes, Gaul prohibited the Christian clergy from participating in Jewish feasts.[14]
March 17, 1190: The Crusaders completed the massacre of Jews of York England slaughtering 500 Jews on this particular day.[15]
March 17th, 1521 - Portugese explorer Ferdinand Magellan discovers the Philippines[16]
March 17, 1616: In Holland, under the rule of Prince Maurice of Orange, it is decided that each city could decide for itself whether or not to admit Jews. In those towns where they were admitted they would not be required to wear a badge of any sort identifying them as Jews.[17]
March 17, 1654: Alexis Mikhailovich, the second Romanov Czar, issued an edict today instructing “a party of Lithuanian Jews to proceed from Kaluga to Nijni-Novgorod” under the protection of an “escort of twenty sharpshooters.” Read more: http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/view.jsp?artid=1178&letter=A&search=Czar%20Alexis%20I#ixzz1GhwP8x13 [18]
March 1700: Preliminary negotiations took place in 1698 and 1699, but these were to some degree frustrated by the intervention of the English, who sought to keep the Iroquois from negotiating directly with the French. After another successful attack into Iroquoia in early 1700, these attempts at intervention failed. The first conference between the French and Iroquois was held on Iroquois territory at Onondaga in March 1700. [19]

March 1759: George Allen. Appointed Indian Agent at Fort Pitt in March 1759. He was a trader and keeper of the first account ledger kept in Fort Pitt preserved today—dated 1759.[25]
March 17: 1762: The first St. Patrick’s Day Parade is held in New York City. The parade was organized by Irish soldiers serving in the British Navy. “Corned beef and cabbage is the traditional meal enjoyed by many on St. Patrick's Day, but only half of it is truly Irish. Cabbage has long been a staple of the Irish diet, but it was traditionally served with Irish bacon, not corned beef. The corned beef was substituted for bacon by Irish immigrants who came to America and who could not afford the real thing i.e. bacon. According to one version of this tale, the Irish immigrants learned about the cheaper alternative, corned beef, from their Jewish neighbors.” Are we to believe that traif bacon gave way to kosher Corned Beef? Only in America![26]
March 1765: With its enactment on November 1, 1765, most colonists called for a boycott of British goods and some organized attacks on the customhouses and homes of tax collectors. After months of protest, Parliament voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1765.
March 1768
In March 1768, a delegation representing the colonial government of Pennsylvania met with Youghiogheny settlers at Christopher Gist’s home. The delegation meant to persuade the settlers to abandon their lands, because their settlement was illegal. Lawrence Harrison, typical of the Virginian settlers, resisted Pennsylvania’s claim to sovereignty. Lawrence Harrison lived on a tomahawk claim. He did not intend to give up his home. The Indian trader George Croghan[27] noted in his journal that during the 1768 meeting at Gist’s, Lawrence Harrison “treated the law and our government with too much disrespect.” Three years after that meeting, Lawrence Harrison became the first Supervisor for Tyrone Township, in the newly created Pennsylvania County called Bedford.
Both Lawrence Harrison and Charles Harrison lived near Stewart’s Crossings in the frontier country that Pennsylvania first placed under jurisdiction of Cumberland County, then Bedford County, later Westmoreland County, and finally Fayette County. Virginia considered Stewart’s Crossings to be within Augusta County, later West Augusta District, and finally Yohogania County.
A community of English Colonials, Ulster Scots, Highlanders, and Germans pioneered the land near Youghiogheny, where it was said that “every settler was a warrior.” For nearly two decades, including the years of the Revolution, Youghiogheny settlers drove Indians off the land, and quarreled with competing Pennsylvanian and Virginian jurisdictions. A discussion of the merits of claims of several tribes of Indians to the land near the forks of the Ohio, and of the governments of Virginia and Pennsylvania, is a complex matter, well beyond the scope of this study.

March 1775: That early in the month of March 1775 this affiant enlisted as a volunteer rifleman for one year under Captain Hugh Stephenson[31] at Shepherdstown, then in Berkley, now Jefferson County Virginia and that he marched from thence as well as he recollects on the 10th or 11 day of the same month in Stephensons Company to the siege of Boston, passing through Frederick Town Maryland passin through Little your Lanhaster & Bethlehem PA crossed the Delaware at Easton the Susquehannah at Wrights ferry, passd through Newjersey throu Hartford Connecticut and remaind at Roxbury near Boston remaind there about eight months when early in March our company marchd from Roxbury & we took our station in the night on Dorchester point near Dorchester hight where we were not discovered by the enemy until about day brake next morning, by which time we had by the hard labour and great exertion of a strong…trenching party and by all means in our power requisite to screen our selves as much as we could against an…attack of the enemy in the morning. This was so far effected that night, that it was not in the power of the eney to dislodge us from our position although they made great exertions to do so (to the best of my recollection, fierd on us…(our fortifications sudenly erected) (a brisk fire of cannon the first morning, from their fleet, fortifications floating batteries Blakhouses) more profusely than at any timeI recollect of, during the siege of Boston.[32]

Thirty-seven were between the ages of 50 and 60, six had only one eye, four were weak and thin, one had no nose, and was lame from an ankle wound and could not march. [34]
March 1776
In March of 1776, Richard Stephenson, Jr. made his will and its settlement began about April of that year. Thus, we understand that he too, did not live long after his will was made. Our William Crawford (who had already moved across the Alleghenies) [35]

March 17, 1776
On March 17, 1776, St. Patricks Day, the British presence in Boston ended after 145 years. General Washington had won his first victory. [36] On Evacuation Day, British troops, government officials, and loyalists sail out of Boston Harbor, never to return.[37]
The colonists, who had convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the impending enactment, greeted the arrival of the stamps with outrage and violence. Most Americans called for a boycott of British goods, and some organized attacks on the customhouses and homes of tax collectors. After months of protest, and an appeal by Benjamin Franklin before the British House of Commons, Parliament voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1766. However, the same day, Parliament passed the Declaratory Acts, asserting that the British government had free and total legislative power over the colonies.[38]
At the siege of Boston in March 1776, Greene was assigned to General Washington's brigade and a lifelong friendship between the two men began. Shortly after several American losses in and around New York in the summer and fall of 1776, Greene was promoted to major general of the Continental Army under Washington.
After leading troops into several successful battles, including the Battle of Trenton in December 1776 and the Battle of Germantown in October 1777, Greene succeeded Thomas Mifflin as quartermaster general in March 1778. Greene was named commander in chief of the Southern Army in October 1778; he commanded troops on the battlefield throughout the rest of the revolution. After twice turning down offers to become secretary of war, Greene retired from the military in 1785. Less than one year later, in June 1786, Greene died at his Georgia home.[39]
In the spring of 1777. The Elector went so far as to cut off provisions to transports carrying Hessians, and put cannons into position to enforce his right to visit the transports to search for his subjects. [40]
Opposition was carried to a point where, when a Hessian deserted at Coblenz, by jumping in the river, the Regency refused to return the deserter to his unit, and he was received in the Austrian Ambassador’s home. Nevertheless, Sir Robert Murray Keith still reported to London that the Emperor was in sympathy with the English cause. The English government did confess to being disappointed by the actions of the Austrian representative at Coblenz. However, expressions of disappointment must be taken as nothing more than diplomatic verbage, as Cressener had reported in 1775, that Austria had ordered her ministers to oppose English recruiting for the Royal Americans. The Court of Vienna also had written to the other German princes to take similar action. [41]
On March 17, 1778, four days after a French ambassador informed the British government that they had officially recognized the United States as an independent nation with the signing of The Treaty of Alliance and The Treaty of Amity and Commerce, England declared war on France directly engaging them in the American Revolutionary War.[9] French entry into the war would lead to further escalation of the war when Spain entered the fight against England as France's ally, after the signing of the Treaty of Aranjuez on April 12, 1779, and again in December 1780 when England declared war on the Dutch Republic after seizing a Dutch merchant ship they claimed was carrying contraband to France during the Affair of Fielding and Bylandt.[11] After the signing of the treaty French supplies of arms, ammunition, and uniforms proved vital for the Continental Army,[7] while their increased presence in the West Indies forced Britain to redeploy troops and naval units away from the North American colonies to secure their holdings in the Caribbean.[9] French involvement in the war would prove to be exceedingly important during the Siege of Yorktown when 10,800 French regulars and 29 French warships, under the command of the Comte de Rochambeau and Comte de Grasse respectively, joined forces with Gen.George Washington and the Marquis de Lafayette to obtain the surrender of Lord Cornwallis's Southern army, and effectively bringing an end fighting on the North American mainland for the remainder of the war. Despite efforts by Britain to negotiate separate treaties with their opponents in the American Revolutionary War, Spain, France, and the United States held together during their negotiations with England and concluded hostilities by signing the 1783 Treaty of Paris.[7] [42]
March 1797: Andrew Jackson read law in his late teens and earned admission to the North Carolina bar in 1787. He soon moved west of the Appalachians to the region that would soon become the state of Tennessee, and began working as a prosecuting attorney in the settlement that became Nashville. He later set up his own private practice and met and married Rachel (Donelson) Robards, the daughter of a local colonel. Jackson grew prosperous enough to build a mansion, the Hermitage, near Nashville, and to buy slaves. In 1796, Jackson joined a convention charged with drafting the new Tennessee state constitution and became the first man to be elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Tennessee. Though he declined to seek reelection and returned home in March 1797, he was almost immediately elected to the U.S. Senate. Jackson resigned a year later and was elected judge of Tennessee's superior court. He was later chosen to head the state militia, a position he held when war broke out with Great Britain in 1812. [43]
Andrew Jackson is the 2nd cousin 8x removed of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.
March 17, 1808: The Infamous Decree (decret infame) of Napoleon canceled all debts owed to Jews by those serving in the military or by women if it was signed without the approval of their husbands or parents.

March 17, 1864: As finally agreed, Banks was to move up Bayou Teche with 17000 troops and link up at Alexandria on March 17 with 10,000 Sherman would send up the Red river. Steele was to advance south from Little Rock with 15,000 and join Banks at Alexandria, Natchitoches, or Shreveport, as seemed best. (As it turned out, Steele was so late starting that he played no part in the operations.)
To oppose this concentric advance Kirby Smith had 30,000 troops in his Trans-Miss. Dept. that were divided into three equal groups: T. H. Holmes was near Camden, Ark.; Magruder was along the Tex. Coast; and Richard Taylor was in La. Taylor’s forces were disposed as follows: J. F. Walker’s division of three brigades and with three attached cavalry companies was located around Marksville, with covering forces in the direction of Simsport and 200 men detached to reinforce the artillery garrison of Fort De Russy. Mouton’s newly-created division of two brigades (Henry Gray and Polignac) was posted below Alexandrea when Taylor learned of the Federal advance. Vincent’s 2d La. Cav. Was on the Teche around Vermillionville, except for the three companies with Walker. The task force Sherman sent to Banks was composed of the division of J. A. Mower, W. F. Lynch, and T. Kilby Smith. A. J. Smith commanded this 10,000 man provisional organization, which is variously referred to in accounts as the “detachment from the Army of the Tennessee,” “XVI and XVII Corps, “ etc. It will be called A.

March 17, 1917: Thus for the first time, open public discussion of the possibility of rural school consolidation in the Buck Creek area was enjoined. This beginning, however,, was something less than auspicious. Buell’s address was apparently something less tnan inspirational and may even have helped stiffen opposition to consolidation. The address received no coverage in the Leader, not even in Chalice’s own column. Whatever the case, it failed to produce any groundswell of support for sonsolidation in the Buck Creek area. Doubtless part of the reason a conswolidation drive failed to get under wayu was that Albert M. Deyoe, the state superintendent of public instruction, haed recently ;come under attack in the press. Opponents of rural school consolidation in the General Assembly had charged him with using his control over the disbursement of state moneys to force farmers into paying for consolidated schools they neither needed or wanted.[53]
Spring 1917: In the spring of 1917, there was still insufficient support for consolidation in the Buck Creek Parish for it to carry in the entire town ship. The most frequent objection to consolidation voiced was that the increased cost of building and maintaining a consolidated school of the size and with the equipment necessary to receive state aid would be prohibitive. Lacking an urban center and consisting entiresly of the territory of country school districts, consolidation would necessitate confiscatory taxes. As many of the older farmers in the area put it, the chances were great that building such a school would “bust’em.” [54]
March 17, 1921: At the Cairo Conference attended by Winston Churchill and T.E. Lawrence (better known as “Lawrence of Arabia”) it was agreed that Transjordan (an Arab State) should be separated from Palestine “thus enabling Britain to fulfill its wartime pledges to both the Arabs and the Jews.” The decision reinforced the right for Jews to “be able to settle the land from the Mediterranean to the Jordan, from the Galilee to the Negev.” (“This comprised the area of both Israel and the West Bank today.”)[55]
March 17, 1931: Dorian Gottlieb, born March 17, 1931, resided Nordhausen. Deportation: October 28, 1938, from Bentschen Abgeshoben. Date of Death: Unknown[56]
March 17, 1935: The Palestine Maccabee Association announced that it would not participate in the 1936 Olympics to be held in Germany because of that country’s treatment of its Jewish citizens.[57]
• March 17, 1942: In eastern Poland, the Belzec Concentration Camp opened as 1,500 Jews arrive from the Lviv Ghetto in the western Ukraine[58] the first of the Aktion Reinhard camps to be put into operation.[59] At that time 30,000 Lublin Polish Jews were transported to this death camp.[60]

Eleven Jewish policemen were hanged in the ghetto, 1000 Jewish slave laborers were executed, and an additional 200 Jews were murdered.[64]
March 17, 1943: Gittel Gottlieb, born July 28, 1915. Deportation: from Berlin, March 17, 1943, Theresienstadt, October 23, 1944, Auschwitz.[65]
