May 17, 1220: Second coronation of King Henry III in Westminster Abbey which was ordered by Pope Honorius III who did not consider that the first had been carried out in accordance with church rites. In 1253, King Henry established The Domus Conversorum (House of Conversion) which was a building and institution in London for Jews who had converted to Christianity. It provided a communal home and low wages.[1]

1728
In 1728, Andrew2 Harrison, describing the property as "where I now live," sold the 600 acres that he had bought from Harry Beverley to Richard fitzWilliams, Esquire, as Trustee for a group headed by His Majesty's Lieutenant Governor, The Honorable William Gooch, Shortly before he sold the Pamunkey land, Andrew Harrison obtained a thousand acre patent in St. George's Parish of Spotsylvania County, on branches of Wysell, also called Terry's Run, about twelve miles from Germanna. The patent was adjacent to land of the Knight of the Golden Horseshoe, Capt. Jeremiah Clouder, and land of Thomas Chew, and was centered on the present village of Tatum, in southeast Orange County, close to the Spotsylvania County line. For Spotsylvania and Orange County planters, Fredericksburg on Rappahannock River was the major tobacco market. Fredericksburg road ran along the east line of Andrew Harrison's plantation.[12]



May 17, 1733: England passes the Molasses Act, placing a high duty on rum and molasses imported from the French and Spanish West Indies.[13]

One of this name (Battle) (6th greatgranduncle) received deeds for land in Orange County from Thomas Chew, Gent. and Martha his wife, November 26, 1741. (See Order Book 1741-43, p. 52.)[15]



May 1750: John Crawford was born December 27, 1744, Aug 17, 1750, May 1750, or 1752 in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. He died Sept 22, 1816 at Iron Ridge, overlooking the Ohio River at the mouth of Brush Creek, in Adams County, Ohio, where he had settled after selling his family farm in Fayette County, PA. He is the only son of Col. William Crawford.

Johns descendants filed for bounty land saying that John was the sole heir of William Crawford. Warrant 8649 for 2037 acres was issued to them Dec. 15, 1838. Information contained in the application is included in the following account of John's descendants. A pulished account can be found in L. A. Burgess, Virginia Soldiers of 1776, Vol. !, pp. 463-465, Reprint Co., Spartanburg, S. C.

Much confusion has been created about John BY THE BOOK OF GRACE EMAHISER, WHO CLAIMED THAT JOHN AND EFFY DID NOT MARRY UNTIL 1797, THAT JOHN SON OF WILLIAM DIED C. 1796, AND THAT MOSES HIS SON LIVED UNTIL 1830. a COMPLETE AND CAREFUL SEARCH OF ADAMS COUNTY AND OTHER RECORDS WILL OF ROBERTA SMITH'S EVIDENCE, WHICH IS NOT INCLUDED HERE FOR SPACE CONSIDERATIONS.

He married twice. It appears to me (Karen Garnett) that John Crawford was first married to Frances Bradford, and she died in PA, probably by 1778. John then married Effie, though official record was lost. She is probably the vivacious Miss Grimes always about the Crawford household in 1775. In 1797 in Adams County, John, for legal reasons had to prove his identity, and Effie is then registered as his wife. It is also possible that there was a common law marriage here, since Col. Wm. in his will makes special mention of "heirs lawfully begotten." Emahiser seems to think that they married as early as 1767.

Much information concerning John's family is preserved in a application for Bounty Land granted Dec 15, 1838. A synopsis of the petition is recorded in L. A. Burgess Virginia Soldiers of 1776, vol. 1, pp. 463-465. (Reprint Co, Spartanburg, S.C. The heirs who made the petition were residents of lewis Co KY, Owens Co KY and Adams Co OH. The following information concerning John's descendants corresponds with the information in that petition.

John's first wife was Frances Bradford, born in Fanquir Co., VA. They were married in 1774, either in Virginia or Pennsylvania. She died in present day Fayette Co. PA after 1790 (if G. W. Crawford is her son)... They had seven children.[16]

The Fry and Jefferson map was originally prepared by Joshua Fry and Thomas Jefferson‘s father

Peter in 1751. It was published in London in 1755 after Fry‘s May 1754 death. Fry was in charge

of leading a military expedition from Wills Creek, but fell from his horse and died. A Colonel

Joshua Fry historical marker is located at Riverside Park in Cumberland, Maryland.[18]



May 17, 1754

On the 17th, Ensign Ward rejoined Washington, having come from Williamsburg, with a letter from the Governor, notifying him that Cptain Mackay, with an independent company of one hundred men, exclusive of officers, was on the way, and that he might expect them at any day. Two Indians came in from “the Ohio” the same evening and reported that the French at Fort du Quesne were expectin reinforcements sufficient to make their total force sixteen hundred men. [19]

May 1762 – Lt. Henry Timberlake took three Cherokee leaders--Ostenaco (Ustanakwa) of Tomotley, Standing Turkey (Kunagadoga) of Chota, Wood Pigeon (Ata-wayi) of Keowee--to meet with King George III of England in London to reaffirm the peace treaties of 1761 ending the Anglo-Cherokee War.[20]



May 1763: On July 16, 1763 in a letter to Colonel Bouquet he authorized genocide against the Indians. This order followed an event in May 1763 at Fort Venango when a group of Senecas on the pretense of a peaceful mission entered the fort and killed the occupants. The captain of the fort (Lt. Francis Gordon) was tortured for several days before being killed. The fort was burned to the ground. Amherst’s concluding words were “…no punishment we can inflict is adequate to the crimes of those inhuman villains.”

In 1763, Amherst was appointed temporary Governor of Virginia—which proved to be his final service in the colonies as he was then recalled to England in the fall of the same year. When the Revolutionary War started, Amherst declined command over British forces due to his belief that the colonists would prevail. Amherst’s wife developed considerable emotional problems and the General grew to detest nearly everything about North America.

Historians write of Amherst as both brave hero and despicable villain—a complex character.[21]



May 1763. — Conspiracy of Pontiac.[22]



May 1764:



Ending November 15, 2009 569[23]

Faneuil Hall, Boston



It is here in Faneuil Hall, the Cradle of Liberty where, in May 1764, Americans first protested the Sugar Act and set down the doctrine of “no taxation without representation”. Or as they put it then: “If taxes are laid upon us in any shape without our having a Legal Representation where they are laid, are we not reduced from the Character of Free Subjects to the miserable state of tributary Slaves? “[24]



May 17, 1768: The British frigate, Romney, arrives in Boston Harbvor after customs officials call for protection.[25]





May 1774: 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. [26]

May 1774

May 17, 1774: Rhode Island calls for the first intercolonial congress.[28]



May 1775

In May, 1775, the news of the Battle of Lexington was heralded throughout this district. Meetings were hurriedly called, under the auspices of Virginia, for this territory. Among the names of those attending these meetings, were Rogers, Harrison, etc.[29]



May 1775: Crawford was fitted by nature to be a soldier and a leader. Ambitious, cool and brave, he possessed that peculiar courage and skill which is adapted to indian or border warfare. His ardent love of adventure and fight, got the better of his prudence and Pennsylvania loyalty in the controversy with Virginia. In 1774, while a sworn peace officer of Pennsylvania, he, contrary to the Penn policy, led two bodies of troops down the Ohio, in Dunmore’s war, and, for a while, commanded at Wheeling. He, however, had 110 fighting to do.



We find him taking part, as a good American patriot, in the first Revolutionary meeting held at Fort Pitt, in May 1775, along with Smith, Wilson and others, to whom, as firm adherents to Pennsylvanla in the recent conflict, he had been actively opposed.[30]







May 17, 1775: At a session on May 17, 1775, viewers were appointed, among whom were Abraham and William Teagarden at the mouth of Ten Mile Creek, and Rezin Virgin, near Washington, to view a road

"from the foot of Laurel Hill by Wm. Teagarden's Ferry (Millsboro), to the Mouth of Wheeling."[31]

May 1777: Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) and Matthew Vance both swore the oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth of Virginia at the same time in May 1777, so they at least knew each other, and were most likely related. [34]


May 1782: Why William Crawford did not mention his grandson, John in his will I cannot state. It is quite likely though that when he wrote the will in May 1782 John Connell was in the army and no doubt considered lost by his people. The boy probably ran away from home before joining the Rangers at the Frontier. He must have lied as to his age. He was a very tall man and no doubt at that time could pass as one older than his years.

1786 - May 17 - On the second day of Court, Sheriff Benjamin Harrison protested that he would not be answerable for the escape of any prisoner for want of a gaol. (History Bourbon etc., p. 41)

As early as 1766 he(?) was in trade with the Tuscarora (JOHNSON PAPERS, 5:384), and he acted as interpreter on Maj. Gen. Daniel Brodhead's campaign in 1779. In May 1790 he was commissioned to bring the Indian chiefs Cornplanter[35], Half Town, and New Arrow to Philadelphia to confer with GW, and acted as interpreter during the talks.





May 1795: Joseph and Pocahontas Rebecca Bolling Cabell had issue:

Nicholas, d. infant. 83. x. Mary P. R. .[36]



May 1796: As for Napoleon’s bodyguard, there was his personal one "the Guides à cheval", [Company of mounted guides] formed in May 1796 following a raid by Austrian Hussars at [disputed depends what you read] from which he only just evaded capture.

Once he became 1st Consul he merged the Guides with the Garde du Directoire [Guard of the Directory] and others to become a single unit consisting of infantry and cavalry the Gardes des Consuls [Guard of the Consulates] that would later became the foundation of the Imperial Guard. Following the merger the Guides were renamed as the Escadron de Chasseurs-à-Cheval de La Garde Consulaire [Company of light cavalrymen of the Consular Guard] then later the Chasseurs à Cheval de la Garde Imperiale [light cavalrymen of Imperial Guard], one of several cavalry units of the Imperial Guard. [37]

May 17, 1861: Sarah Preston:
Sarah married John Buchanan Floyd (b. 1806 / d. 1863) on June 1, 1830 in Washington Co. VA. John was the Governor of Virginia from 1849 – 1852. . He married Sarah Buchanan Preston, his cousin. They had no children, but adopted their orphaned cousin Eliza Mary Johnston. Although a strong opponent of secession, he was in 1860 involved in incidents which gave rise to controversy, particularly over the sending of arms to the southern states in excess of their requirements. He resigned a Secretary of War on December 29, 1860 on Buchanan's refusal to order Maj. Robert Anderson back from Fort Sumter to Fort Moultrie. He was also involved in troubles which occurred when fraud in connection with Indian trust funds was discovered. After Virginia seceded he was appointed Colonel of Volunteers in the Provisional Army of Virginia may 17, 1861 and having raised a brigade of volunteers for the Confederate army was appointed Brigadier General May 23, 1861. He was in command of forces in West Virginia in 1861 and then was sent to reinforce Albert Sydney Johnston, who sent him to Fort Donelson. Before the surrender of that fort he withdrew his troops, pursuant to an agreement with Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner to whom he turned over the command. President Davis removed him from command without a Court of Inquiry for failure to ask for reinforcements, for not evacuating sooner, and for abandoning command to Buckner and escaping. Two months later, however, he was made a Major General by the Virginia State Line with responsibility for defending the salt mines near Saltville. His death resulted from exposure in the field. [39]

May 17, 1939: The MacDonald White Paper, severely restricting Jewish immigration to Palestine, is issued by the British government.[46] It ordered that future Jewish immigration be limited to 10,000 per year for five years and to an additional 25,000 refugees from Nazism.[47] 1939 White Paper limits Jewish immigration to Palestine to 75,000 in total, restricts Jewish land purchases (regulations come into effect in 1940), envisions an Arab Palestinian state. Jews found the Mossad l'aliya bet to arrange for illegal immigration.[48] At the end of a ten year perod, the White Paper called for an independent state in the region, an Arab state![49]



May 17, 1940: German forces occupy Brussels.[50]

Prior to deportation to Auschwitz they were held at Camp Pithiviers[51]. Pithiviers is of global historical interest as one of the locally infamous World War II concentration camps where children were separated from their parents while the adults were processed and deported to camps farther away, usually Auschwitz. [52]

Also on board was Bension Gotlob, born November 11, 1901 from Pologne, France, and Regina Gotlop born November 25, 1898 from Tarnow, Poland.[53]

[35] Cornplanter. Indian name Garyan-wah-gah. Iroquois Chief—Seneca. (Captain O’Bail). Born in Conewaugus on the Genesee River (near present day Rochester, NY) c1735. Died on the Cornplanter plot February 17, 1836. Although fighting on the British side during the Revolutionary War, he argued for a peaceful settlement between the Iroquois and the thirteen colonies. He allied with Joseph Brant and Sayenqueragta against General John Sullivan in 1779 during Sullivan’s march into Iroquoia. With Sir John Johnson, Brant, and others he assisted in the looting and burning in 1780 of the Schoharie and Mohawk valleys. After the Fort Stanwix Treaty of 1784, he was seen as a traitor by many Iroquois—a peacemaker by others. Joseph Brant was especially critical of Cornplanter—both were ambitious and competed for Iroquois supremacy.

In the late 1780s and 1790s when PA or federal officials had a problem with Indians in western PA, Cornplanter was the one brought into the conversation. Both sides recognized that fighting between settlers and Indians was not something that was going away during the early 1790s. The practice of "covering the grave" with a going-rate of $200 per Indian—or settler, served as a sort of unspoken agreement. Cover the Grave. An Indian practice aimed at reducing, or eliminating "revenge murders." When a member of one tribe kills a member of a second tribe, an immediate reaction might be to "avenge the murder" by killing the perpetrator. This killing might set-off a chain-reaction of further killings. Recognizing that the killing of the second person will not bring the first person back to life, an accomodation would be made by forcing the guilty party to cover the grave of the deceased with gifts of value. The efficacy of this practice depends on the power and influence of the chiefs and sachems of the involved tribes. When a third-party (the colonists) became involved, the practice was put to the test. The insistance on a murder trial by settlers could cause a major conflict.

Cornplanter's father was Dutch and his mother Seneca (she was Guyasutha's sister). Father was Indian trader (John O’Bail). His half-brother, Handsome Lake, was an important Seneca mystic and religious leader. Cornplanter developed his grant as a model community with help from Quakers. He built schools, roads, houses and a strong agricultural infrastructure. However, after a string of questionable dealings with white men, he became embittered and destroyed his relationships—including a gift from George Washington.

Cornplanter’s Grant. Cornplanter kept the Senecas neutral during the post Revolutionary War period and in appreciation, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania gave him (personally) three plots of land along the Allegheny River near the New York state line (Resolution of the Pennsylvania General Assembly on March 24, 1789). He sold a six-hundred acre plot ("Richland") near West Hickory to General John Wilkins, Jr.. A second plot of three-hundred acres at Oil Creek ("The Gift") was sold to William Kinnear and William Connelly in 1818 for $2,121 with a $250 downpayment. Connelly paid-off his debt the same year; Kinnear never did and Cornplanter was unsuccessful in collecting. The third plot he held (779 acres in Cold Spring Township in Warren County) and developed along with several noteworthy Seneca including his uncle Guyasutha and his half-brother, the prophet Handsome Lake. The land stayed with the Seneca until 1965 when it went under water as part of a flood control project—the Kinzua Dam.

A second factor concerning the transaction is that Cornplanter met President Washington and the Secretary of War, Henry Knox, in Philadelphia in April 1791. Cornplanter wanted some territorial agreements made in prior treaties to be recinded, but Washington and Knox would not agree. However, Washington did address a question concerning the land then held by Cornplanter and his Seneca. Washington assured Cornplanter that "...no state nor person can purchase your lands, unless at some public treaty held under the Authority of the United States. The general Government will never consent to your being defrauded. But it will protect you in all your just rights...You possess the right to sell, and the right of refusing to sell your lands..." This was a major coup for an Indian. No state could take his land—like had happened to the Iroquois in NY. Finally, an Indian had the assurance of the President of the United States that his land was his and could not be taken away.
