March 25, 1271: King Jaime (Kings James I of Aragon) freed all the Jews in Murviedro, a city in Valencia of debts from Christians. It should be noted this is after the Christians burned down a synagogue, and then were forced to rebuild it themselves.[1]
March 25, 1303: The Jews of Weissensee, Germany, were massacred.[2]
March 25th, 1598 - Cornelis de Houtman's fleet departs for East-Indies[3]
March 25, 1655: A civil war between Catholics and Puritans in Maryland come to an end.[4]
March 25, 1760: Brigadier General John Glover was born at Salem, Mass., on November 5, 1732. There is no record of where John Glover was “made a Mason,” but documents in the archives of the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts name him and his brothers Samuel and Johnhathan in “A List of Brothers before the Opening of the Lodge in Barblehead and belonging to the Same Town.” That ladge, constituted March 25, 1760, received its charter on January 14, 1778, and its present name, Philanthropic Lodge, on June 12, 1797 under Grand Master Paul Revere. In January 1775, the Marblehead Regiment of Minutemen elected Glover 2nd Lt. Colonel, its third ranking officer, and its weekly drills sharply increased. With the unexpected death of its Commander in April, Glover assumed command of the regiment. The Marblehead men were fishing on the Grand Banks when “the shot heard round the world” was fired at Lexington and Concord. On their return Col. Glover’s recruiting efforts soon raised a regiment of 505 officers and men,, all but seven being “Headers.” [5]
March 25, 1774: On this day in 1774, British Parliament passes the Boston Port Act, closing the port of Boston and demanding that the city's residents pay for the nearly $1 million worth (in today's money) of tea dumped into Boston Harbor during the Boston Tea Party of December 16, 1773.
The Boston Port Act was the first and easiest to enforce of four acts that together were known as the Coercive Acts. The other three were a new Quartering Act, the Administration of Justice Act and the Massachusetts Government Act.
As part of the Crown's attempt to intimidate Boston's increasingly unruly residents, King George III appointed General Thomas Gage, who commanded the British army in North America, as the new governor of Massachusetts. Gage became governor in May 1774, before the Massachusetts Government Act revoked the colony's 1691 charter and curtailed the powers of the traditional town meeting and colonial council. These moves made it clear to Bostonians that the crown intended to impose martial law.
In June, Gage easily sealed the ports of Boston and Charlestown using the formidable British navy, leaving merchants terrified of impending economic disaster. Many merchants wanted to simply pay for the tea and disband the Boston Committee of Correspondence, which had served to organize anti-British protests. The merchants' attempt at convincing their neighbors to assuage the British failed. A town meeting called to discuss the matter voted them down by a substantial margin.
Parliament hoped that the Coercive Acts would isolate Boston from Massachusetts, Massachusetts from New England and New England from the rest of North America, preventing unified colonial resistance to the British. Their effort backfired. Rather than abandon Boston, the colonial population shipped much-needed supplies to Boston and formed extra-legal Provincial Congresses to mobilize resistance to the crown. By the time Gage attempted to enforce the Massachusetts Government Act, his authority had eroded beyond repair.[6]
March 25-28, 1776
Winch, Joseph.Captain, 2d (Framingham) co., 5th Middlesex Co. regt. of Mass. militia; list of officers chosen by the several companies in said regiment, dated Sherburne, March 25, 1776; ordered in Council March 28, 1776, that said officers [p.591] be commissioned with the exception of officers of the 8th co.; reported commissioned March 27 [?], 1776.[7]
March 25, 1777: A detachment of chasseurs and recruits started from Hanau on March 7th, 1777. On the 8th the boats were stopped at Mainz, and eight men were taken from them. The archbishop claimed these either as his own subjects or as deserters from his service. The English government refused to interfere, and the complaints of the Prince of Hanau were unheeded. On March 25th, at S'Gravendael, in Holland, seven men sprang overboard, and three of them escaped, with the help of sympathizing peasants. [8]

March 25, 1777
At eight o’clock in the morning, first the von Eyb and then our regiment was set out, companywise, on the bank at Nijmegen, and then marched to the parade ground. There the regiments were mustered and in the presence of the English colonel, sworn in. At noon the staff officers and adjutants ate with the Prince at the Swan in Nijmegen. During the afternoon our leaders were cheered with cannons, especially the staff of the von Eyb and von Voit Regiments. During the departure Colonel [Charles] Rainsford,[9] who sailed in his own yacht, began a cannon fire. The other yachts answered and the fleet sailed this evening to Tiel. This morning the Hessian recruits also arrived at Nijmegen from Coblenz, [10] and then sailed with us…
The Hessian recruits were mustered at Nijmegen on March 28, 1777.[11]
This is possibly Franz Gottlop’s recruit transport. There is a collection of the Von Linsing regimental records on Microfilm. Those have been requested via interlibrary loan from the Gail Borden Library in Elgin, IL. It is hoped that we will get a better understanding of the movements of Franz through these records. JG Jan. 2005
As of Feb. 2005 I have requested the first 15 microfiche from the set of over 300. An attempt to aquire the complete set was denied by the lending library. JG As of October 2005 no microfiche have been sent. I will try to reapply a request this week, 10/23/05 As of 10/18/2006 no microfilm has ever been sent. JG

BROTHERS—When I look toward you or at the Kenawa River I am ashamed of the Conduct of our young foolish Men. formerly I was ashamed of the Conduct of your young men. Now I see there are foolish people among all Nations. Our Wise men are ashamed and sorry for what has happen’d and our Warriors declare themselves in like manner. For this Reason Brothers, I now send Swatswih[15] to tell you not to think hard of it. I know that the wicked Mingoes and Wiandots have occasioned the loss of your People at Kenhawa. They came and kill’d some of our People whilst yours were in the Fort on purpose to have them hurt. I therefore desire you not to think hard of the white people there. Strings of Wampum

March 25, 1800: Friedrich Adam Julius von Wangenheim
Friedrich Adam Julius von Wangenheim (February 8, 1749 Sonneborn - March 25, 1800 Gumbinnen) was a German botanist specializing in forestry, and was the citing authority for a number of described eastern North American plant species. He was also a Hessian soldier, and during his service in the thirteen colonies devoted his leisure time to botanical studies of American forests. When he returned to Prussia, he wrote up his research and strongly advocated importing suitable American species of trees and shrubs for use in German forests.
Biography
He received his education at Waltershausen, and in 1766 entered the service of the Duke of Coburg as lieutenant. He later entered the Prussian army and attained the rank of captain. He came to the United States in 1777 in the Hessian contingent in the British service, commanded a squadron of light cavalry in New York and Pennsylvania 1778-1783, and won a reputation for his successful raids. He participated in the battles of Brandywine and Charleston. On his return to Germany he was given the cross of the Hessian military order, and later re-entered the Prussian service.
While in North America, he had studied the natural history of the country, especially the trees and shrubs. In 1785, he wrote a memoir to the Berlin Academy showing the immense advantages that would be derived from the naturalization of several species of American trees. On request of the academy, he was then sent to Gumbinnen as director general of the waters and forests of eastern Prussia, where he carried on experiments on a large scale and planted a great number of American trees.
The standard author abbreviation Wangenh. is used to indicate this individual as the author when citing a botanical name.[1][19]
March 25, 1817: Tsar Alexander I recommended formation of Society of Israeli Christians, whose primary function was to convert Jews to Christianity. It failed.[20]
March 25, 1820: The Treaty of Saginaw, also known as the Treaty with the Chippewa, was made between Gen. Lewis Cass and Chief John Okemos, Chief Wasso and other Native American tribes of the Great Lakes region (principally the Ojibwe, but also the Ottawa and Potawatomi) in what is now the United States, on September 24, 1819, proclaimed by the President of the United States on March 25, 1820, and placed in law as 7 Stat. 203.
Native Americans ceded a large tract of land (more than six million acres (24,000 km²) in the central portion of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. The southern boundary of the tract extended from a few miles northeast of Jackson west to just northeast of Kalamazoo. The line then ran directly to the head of the Thunder Bay River in south-central Montmorency County and then along the river to the mouth in Thunder Bay, near Alpena. From there it extended northeast to the international boundary line between the United States and the British Province of Upper Canada and then along the boundary south to the boundary line established by the Treaty of Detroit in 1807, which ran from the shore of Lake Huron in northeast Sanilac County southwest to a point several miles northeast of Lansing and then due south the point of origin. The treaty reserved several smaller tracts of land for Indian use within the ceded territory.[21]
March 25, 1822: The first treaty of Chicago was signed by Michigan Territorial Governor Lewis Cass and Solomon Sibley for the United States and representatives of the Ottawa, Ojibwe, and Potawatomi on August 29, 1821, and proclaimed on March 25, 1822. The treaty ceded to the United States all lands in Michigan Territory south of the Grand River, with the exception of several small reservations. [22]

March 25, 1839 – Peter Hildebrand Detachments arrive With Cherokee refugees at Ft. Gibson, led by named men, on this date.
March 25, 1843: The Massachusetts liberty law, entitled “An Act further to Protect personal Liberty Approved by Governor…” of March 25, 1843, is printed in the Norfolk Democrat (Dedham, Massachusetts), April 21, 1843. As to the complexion of the legislature there is some question. The Democrats were in power except in the house, where they had the speaker and the standing committees against them. In the house of 357 members there were 177 Democrats, 175 Whigs and five Liberty party members, who held the balance of power. But during the last week of the session, some “illegal” members having been eliminated, and with one or two members deserting party, the bill was passed. [23]
March 25, 1847: John Godlove and Mary Etta Cochren
John was born November 9, 1823 in Ohio, probably in Guernsey Co. He married in Delaware Co., Ind., on March 25, 1847 and died 6 October 1881. He was the third child of Joseph and Hannah (Bumgardner) Godlove.
This is from the research of Emma Smith Saucier, who has published a book on Joseph and Hannah and their descendants. Emma is very helpful and, if you’re interested, she might even sell you a book (but you’ll get no sales pitch). Her address is ess-gen@pacbell.net.
Joseph was the son of Francis Godlove (1744-1835) of Hardy and Hampshire Cos. (West) Virginia. I have researched Francis’ family and will send the biography and family group to you directly, if you will accept a Word attachment to an email. It is 9 pages. Let me know at the address below.

March 25, 1853: SUSAN JANE 9 CRAWFORD (JEPTHA M.8, VALENTINE "VOL"7, JOSEPH "JOSIAH"6, VALENTINE5, VALENTINE4, WILLIAM3, MAJOR GENERAL LAWRENCE2, HUGH1) was born 1835 in Jackson County, Missouri, and died August 14, 1863 in Kansas City, Missouri. She married (1) WILLIAM NOLAND WHITSETT March 25, 1853 in Jackson county, Missouri, son of ISAAC WHITSETT and CYNTHIA NOLAND. She married (2) THOMAS VANDEVER March 09, 1856 in Blue Springs, Missouri.
Notes for SUSAN JANE CRAWFORD:
After the murder of her father Jeptha, Susan went from Neutralist to Southern Sympathizer. In early June, while on their way home from Kansas City, Susan, her sister Armenia Selvey and Nephew Jeptha Selvey were arrested and confined to jail, the charges-aiding and abiding the enemy. On August 13, 1863, the jail where they and 14 others were confined collapsed, killing five and injuring the rest. The dead included Elizabeth and Armenia and the sister of William Anderson who later earned the nick-name "Bloody Bill" while avenging the deaths of his sister.
Eight days later, William Quantrill raided and burned the the city of Lawrence, Kansas where the head of the Kansas Redlegs, who had wreaked havoc on Western Missouri for so long, resided. James Lane escaped, dressed as a woman and hiding in a cornfield.
Marriage Notes for SUSAN CRAWFORD and WILLIAM WHITSETT:

March 25, 1911: In New York City, 146 garment workers died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Company Fire. Many of the victims were young immigrant Jewish girls working in the sweatshop environment of the garment industry. The first helped spur the formation of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union. Approximately 500 workers were sewing shirtwaists in the Triangle Shirtwaist Company's sweatshop near Washington Square in Manhattan when a fire broke out. The building lacked adequate fire escapes, firefighting equipment was unable to reach the top floors, and — most tragically — exit doors had been locked to prevent unauthorized breaks. Some women, unable to reach an exit, jumped from ninth- and tenth-floor windows in a vain effort to save themselves. The fire did its work within twenty minutes. In the end, 146 died and many more were injured. Most of the dead were recent immigrant Jewish and Italian women between the ages of sixteen and twenty-three. Just two years before, the Jewish owners of the Triangle Shirtwaist Company had been among the targets of the strike known as the uprising of the 20,000, which had sought union recognition through the International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU). Though the strike had forced some firms to settle with their workers, Triangle had fired union members there and remained an anti-union shop. In the wake of the fire, the Jewish community and leading women in the labor movement sprang into action. The Women's Trade Union League (WTUL), a cross-class coalition that worked as an ally of the ILGWU, organized a public meeting at the Metropolitan Opera House on April 2. There, Rose Schneiderman, the leader of the 1909 strike, called upon all working people to take action. Three days later, 500,000 people turned out for the funerals of seven unidentified victims of the fire. Under pressure from the ILGWU, the WTUL, and others, New York State established a Committee on Safety in the wake of the fire. In addition, the state legislature set up a Factory Investigating Committee, which drafted new legislation designed to protect workers. Their recommendations included automatic sprinkler systems and occupancy limits tied to the dimensions of exit staircases. Thirty-six labor and safety laws were passed in the three years after the fire, thanks to the agitation of working people. Even as these regulations went into effect, the site of the Triangle fire remained a rallying point for labor organizing. Some survivors, galvanized by their experience, went on to lifetimes of labor activism. Frances Perkins, who witnessed the fire, later became Secretary of Labor under Franklin Roosevelt. She said that the Triangle Fire was what motivated her to devote her career to helping workers. The last survivor of the fire, Rose Rosenfeld Freedman, died in 2001 at age 107.[33]
March 25, 1941: Yugoslavia joins the Axis.[34]
March 25, 1941: A pro-allied coup is carried out in Yugoslavia.[35]
March 25, 1942: The government of the Slovak Republic began to deport its Jewish citizens today. The Slovak Republic was one of the countries to agree to deport its Jews as part of the Nazi Final Solution. Originally, the Slovak government tried to make a deal with Germany in October 1941 to deport its Jews as a substitute for providing Slovak workers to help the war effort. After the Wannsee Conference, the Germans agreed to the Slovak proposal, and a deal was reached where the Slovak Republic would pay for each Jew deported, and, in return, Germany promised that the Jews would never return to the republic. The initial terms were for "20,000 young, strong Jews", but the Slovak government quickly agreed to a German proposal to deport the entire population for "evacuation to territories in the east". The willing deportation was only the latest in a series of anti-Semitic actions taken by the government. Soon after gaining its “independence,” the Slovak Republic began a series of measures aimed against the Jews in the country. The Hlinka's Guard began to attack Jews, and the "Jewish Code" was passed in September 1941. Resembling the Nuremberg Laws, the Code required that Jews wear a yellow armband, banned intermarriage and denied Jews the opportunity to hold a variety of jobs.[36]
March 25, 1942: Seven hundred Jews from Polish Lvov-district reached Belzec Concentration camp.[37]
March 25, 1942: A ghetto is established in Kolomyia, containing about 18,000 Jews.[38]

March 25, 1943: In a surprise move, 97% of all Dutch physicians went on strike against Nazi registration.[40]
March 25, 1943: One thousand Jews are deported from Marseilles, France, to the Sobibór death camp.[41]
March 25, 1943(18th of Adar II, 5703): The Jewish community from Zólkiew, Poland, was marched to the Borek Forest and executed.[42]
March 31, 1943: Crematorium II at Auschwitz begins operation[43]
After March 25, 1943: the deportations stopped until the end of June. The Auschwitz calendar (Z.O., no. 4; po. 87) shows the arrival of a convoy of 1,000 Jews on March 28. Supposedly, it left Drancy on March 26, and the entire convoy was gassed upon arrival. This is an error. The only convoys that left Drancy at that time were those of March 23 and 25 that went to Sobibor. We located the notes of the executive of the camp of Drancy, which mentioned no such convoy. It would have been impossible for a convoy to leave without some trace in these notes, where, in fact, all the other convoys appeared. Undoubtedly, the Auschwitz archivist found a trace somewhere and that all the deportees had been gassed since she found no indication of numbers of those selected for work. A. Rutkowski also wrongly included this convoy in the list of transports from France in his study.
Rutkowski made the further mistake of including a convoy of 1,740 persons on May 24, 1943, which also supposedly wento to Sobibor. This list, number 54, is merely a list of Drancy inmates, and in verifying the names, we realized that the majority were deported in later convoys. This list was probably the result of the arrival of Captain Alois Brunner with a special commando of Austrian SS as reenforcements for Rothke. Document CCXXI-19, “situation as of July 15,” relates that “at the beginning of June, Haupstrmfuihrer Breonner nbegan to take a greater interest in the camp of Drancy. He visited the camp… during his various visits he personally proceeded in a hightly summary fashion to interrogate 1,500 inmates out of 2,500. The first selection of the inmates resulted in the deportation of 1,002 of them towards the East on June 23, 1943.
We have a letter written in pencil and thrown from one of the cars of this convoy:
“In the boxcar, on the way to Metz.
Dear friends, last night we slept 100 in a room in Drancy, where we were placed after the search. Some of the people were transported by stretcher. All pell-mell, sleeping on the floor…we are 50 to a cattle-car, sitting on the floor or on our baggage. It is impossible to move. Three people escaped by jumping from a train moving at 40 to 50 mph. We don’t know if they are safe. The tell us we are going towards Mets, where there will be a selection… I am strong in spite of the terrible heat, without any facilities or water.”
The condition on this trip were reported (XLIX-8) June 28 by the head of the escort, who confirmed the three escapes—at 1 PM, 40 miles from Epernay==in the heat, which had forced the guard to open the doors of the wagons a bit. (For further description, see J. Cremieux-Dunand, pp. 88-100.)
The list for Convoy 55 is in poor condition. Among the nationalities, more than 200 were undetermined, mostly of Polish origin. In addition, there were 382 French, many of whom were naturalized; 245 Poles; 67 Russians; 36 Dutch; 24 Greeks; 16 Belgians; and 13 Czechs. It shows 561 males and 457 females, including 160 children under 18.
The list also includes thirteen babies.
The routine telex indicated that the convoy left on June 23 at 10 AM, with 1,002 Jews. It was under the supervision of Meister der Schutzpolizei, Richard Urban, with 20 men..
Paulette Swiczarczyk reported on te arrival at Auschwitz: “There, heartrending scenes surpassing anything one could imagine. Young mothers whose children are snatched out of their arms to the accompaniment of screams…” Upon arrival, 283 men were selected and assigned numbers 125858 through 126240; 217 women were assigned numbers 46537 through 46753.
In 1945 there were 86 survivors; 44 were women.
March 25, 1944: At Birkenau, 3,860 Jews who had been living in "family quarters", were sent to the gas chambers. Five days earlier, in their special "family quarters", they were shown off to Red Cross representatives (who were not allowed to see the rest of the camp.) The Jews were told to write postcards to their Czech relatives, but post date them March 25, 26, and 27. The Jews would never live to see those days. Of this group, only 37 were spared, including eleven sets of twins. They would be sent to Dr. Mengele for medical experiments.[44]
March 25, 1944: After weeks of political wrangling and German invasion, official word came that Hungary was ready to deal with its Jewish "problem".[45]
March 25, 1946: “A shipload of illegal immigrants arrived” off the coast of Tel Aviv tonight. Several of the immigrants evaded capture by the British and reportedly “found shelter” in the homes of Jews living in Tel Aviv.[46]

[14] 97 This was Col. George Morgan’s Shawnee name, as Taimenend was his Delaware cognomen.—ED.
[15] 98 The Indian name of James Girty, who was the messenger employed on this occasion. James Girty was born in 1743 in Pennsylvania, captured at the age of thirteen, and carried with all his family to the Indian town at Kittanning. During Armstrong’s raid the Girty boys were removed from the vicinity, but were soon brought back and parcelled out among the tribes. While Simon went to the Seneca, and George to the Delawares, James was carried to the Shawnee towns and there resided for about three years. After the treaty of Easton (1759) he was returned to the settlements and lived in the vicinity of Fort Pitt, being employed as a laborer and occasionally getting an opportunity to interpret for traders. In March, 1778, he was employed by the commissioners then at Fort Pitt to carry a message to the Shawnee, in extenuation of the murder of their chief, and to persuade them to keep the peace. McKee and the escaping Loyalists found James Girty at Old Chillicothe, and easily persuaded him to join their party. He did not arrive at Detroit until August.
He was then taken into British pay, and made interpreter for the Shawnee. He led out his first party against the American settlements in Kentucky, in the autumn of 1778. Thence until the close of the Revolution he was in active service, reconnoitering (1779) toward Ouiatanon at the time of Clark’s expected expedition, and accompanying that of Bird to Kentucky (1780). In the summer of the latter year he was at the Shawnee towns when they were raided by Clark. In 1782 lie was among the forces that defeated Crawford, and in the Shawnee towns he informed against Slover. In the autumn of 1782, while his brothers were with Caldwell in Kentucky, James Girty was with the Indian party that besieged Wheeling. At the close of the Revolution he established a trading house at St. Mary’s on the Maumee, at a place later known as Girty’s Town. On the approach of Harmar (1790) he removed to Auglaize, and finally (1804) retreated before Wayne to Detroit, and then to Canada. There he had a grant of land (1807) in the township of Gosfield, whither he retired. Too infirm from rheumatism to take part in the War of 1812-15, he died at his farm, April 5, 1817.—ED.
