August 14, 1291: The Knights Templar evacuated their last standing Castle at Atlit and started their new headquarters in Cyprus. The Templar Castle at Atlit was greatest they had ever built and it had never been taken by siege. The Mamuks demolished it so it could never again be used against the forces of islam. The destruction of the last Crusader stronghold in the Holy land was proof to many that God no longer approved of such violence. [1]

August 14, 1571: m. — M. Paul de Foix comes to London,
charged with a mission relative to the marriage of
the Duke of Anjou with Queen Elizabeth. Some
days before his arrival, the Bishop of Ross had been
removed to Ely, a city about sixty miles from the
capital.
At the end of August, La MotheFénélon had sent
to Lord Herries, by means of the Duke of Norfolk,
two thousand crowns to assist the garrison of Edin-
burgh Castle, which still held out for the Queen of
Scotland. One of the people employed to convey
this money delivered it to Burleigh, with the letters
which accompanied it.
The Privy Council considered this as high-treason.
They arrested Higford and Barker, secretaries to the
Duke of Norfolk, and Banister, his comptroller ; and
complained bitterly of the conduct of La Mothe
Fénélon in this matter. [4]
August 14, 1756 - French capture Fort Oswego, NY.[5]
August 14, 1765 - Mass colonists challenge British rule by an Elm (Liberty Tree).[6]
August 14, 1776: After the battle of Lexington, Crawford tendered his services
to the Council of Safety at Philadelphia, but owing to the peace
policy of Governor Penn, and his associates, and possibly the
boundary dispute, they were not accepted. Virginia, his native
State, glad to accept the services of this veteran warrior, author-
ized him to raise a regiment. His influence and name on the
frontier were such that he recruited a full regiment in a short
time. On January 12, 1776, he was appointed lieutenant-
colone of the Fifth Virginia.34 By act of Congress he was ap-
pointed on October 11, following, colonel of the Seventh
Regiment of the Virginia Battalions, his commission to be dated
August 14th. He took part during the year in battles and skir-
mishes on Long Island, and the remarkable retreat through New
Jersey. One of the heroes that crossed the Delaware with Wash-
ington on Christmas day, he fought at Trenton the next, and at
Princeton on January 3, 1777.[7]
August 14, 1776: Fifth Regiment General Stevens Brigade, William Crawford was promoted to lieutenant-colonel. He served until August 14, 1776. He was promoted to colonel at Trenton, NJ, December 26, 1776, of the Seventh Regiment which he headed 1776-1778. It was raised largely by William Crawford in the district of West Augusta. It was accepted by Congress February 29, 1776 and was taken on the Continental Establishment June 17, 1776. It seems to have been attached to General Woodford’s Brigade during its entire term of service. The Regiment was nearly cut to pieces in the defeat at Brandywine.[8]
August 14, 1776: The Regiment V. Mirbach departed on March 1, 1776 from Melsungen. It embarked from Breznerlehe on May 12, 1776 and reached New York on August 14, 1776. The regiment was part of the Hessian First Division and took part in the following major engagements:
-- Long Island (NY, August 27, 1776)
-- Fort Washington (upper Manhattan, NY, November 16, 1776)
-- Brandywine (PA, September 11, 1777)
-- Redbank (Gloucester County, NJ, also known as Fort Mercer, October 22-November 21, 1777)
The regiment departed from New York on 21 November
1783 and arrived at Breznerlehe on April 20, 1784.
They returned to their quarters in Melsungen on May 30, 1784.

August 14, 1782: ‘The following order issued to Lieut. Richard Johnson, the day previous to tl~e writing of the above letter, exhibits Cook’s watchful care over the north. em settlements of his county:
In a message sent the general assembly of Pennsylvania by President Moore, August 14th, following, he says: “We had great reason to apprehend a severe blow would be aimed at the frontiers by the Indians. Our fears, in this respect, have been but too well justified by events that have since happened, and there is reason to believe that the blow has fallen with redoubled force, in consequence of the killing of the Moravian indians at Mps. kingum lupon that branch now known as the Tuscarawas], an act which never had our approbation or countenance in any manner whatever.” The report of the committee of the assembly upon so much of his message as related to the killing of the Moravian Indians was made the next day, as follows:
“Your committee are of opinion that an inquiry, on lega) principles, ought to be instituted respecting the killing of the Moravian Indians, at Muskingum — an act disgraceful to humanity and productive of the most disagreeable and dangerous consequences.
“Resolved, therefore, that this house will give every support in their power to the supreme executive council toward prosecuting an inquiry respecting the killing of the Moravian Indians at Muskingum.”
Nothing further, however, was ever done in an official way, either by the United States, Pennsylvania or Virginia, “tending to elucidate the dark transaction.”[12]
August 14, 1813 - British warship Pelican attacks & captures US war brigantine Argus.[13]
August 14, 1816 - Ottawa, Ojibwa, and Potawatomi
and Auguste Chouteau for the United States and representatives of the Council of Three Fires[14] (united tribes of Ottawa, Ojibwa, and Potawatomi) residing on the Illinois and Milwaukee rivers, signed on August 24, 1816 and proclaimed on December 30, 1816. Despite the name, the treaty was conducted at Portage des Sioux, Missouri, located immediately north of St. Louis, Missouri.
By signing the treaty, the tribes, their chiefs, and their warriors relinquished all right, claim, and title to land previously ceded to the United States by the Sac and Fox tribes on November 3, 1804. By signing, the united tribes also ceded a 20 mile strip of land to the United States, which connected Chicago and Lake Michigan with the Illinois River. In 1848, the Illinois and Michigan Canal was built on the ceded land and, in 1900, the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal.
The specific land given up included:
The said chiefs and warriors, for themselves and the tribes they represent, agree to relinquish, and hereby do relinquish, to the United States, all their right, claim, and title, to all the land contained in the before-mentioned cession of the Sacs and Foxes, which lies south of a due west line from the southern extremity of Lake Michigan to the Mississippi river. And they moreover cede to the United States all the land contained within the following bounds, to wit: beginning on the left bank of the Fox river of Illinois, ten miles above the mouth of said Fox river; thence running so as to cross Sandy creek, ten miles above its mouth; thence, in a direct line, to a point ten miles north of the west end of the Portage, between Chicago creek, which empties into Lake Michigan, and the river Depleines, a fork of the Illinois; thence, in a direct line, to a point on Lake Michigan, ten miles northward of the mouth of Chicago creek; thence, along the lake, to a point ten miles southward of the mouth of the said Chicago creek; thence, in a direct line, to a point on the Kankakee, ten miles above its mouth; thence, with the said Kankakee and the Illinois river, to the mouth of Fox river, and thence to the beginning: Provided, nevertheless, That the said tribes shall be permitted to hunt and fish within the limits of the land hereby relinquished and ceded, so long as it may continue to be the property of the United States.
In exchange the tribes were to be paid $1,000 in merchandise over 12 years.[3] The land was surveyed by John C. Sullivan and its land was originally intended as land grant rewards for volunteers in the War of 1812. Many of the streets in the survey run at a diagonal that is counter to the Chicago street grid.
Today, Indian Boundary Park in West Ridge, Chicago commemorates this Treaty.[15]

Indian Boundary Park is a thirteen-acre park in the West Ridge neighborhood of Chicago that opened in 1922.[2] It is named after a boundary line that was determined in the 1816 Treaty of St. Louis between the Odawa, Ojibwe, and Potawatomi tribes and the United States government. The line ran through the present park.[3]
Indian Boundary Park is known for its small zoo, which is one of two zoos within the Chicago city limits.[2] The zoo began with a single American black bear; it now primarily houses farm animals, such as goats, sheep, ducks, and chickens.[4] Indian Boundary Park is also noted for its fieldhouse, which was completed in 1929. The design of the fieldhouse incorporates Native American and Tudor elements. In 1989, a large playground was added to the park and assembled with the help of neighborhood residents.[2]
The park was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995,[5] and the fieldhouse was named a Chicago Landmark in 2005.[6][16]

Job Kirby, son of William Kirby, was born in 1816, and came to America with his mother in 1849. He was unmarried, and when the Civil War broke out, he enlisted in a New York State regiment (Company G, 104th Regiment, New York Volunteers), and went to the front. After one year of service he was taken prisoner by Confederates. He was paroled, but his patriotism led him back into the army and he was taken prisoner a second time. He was held in a stockade at Saulsbury, North Carolina, where from exposure and neglect he died and was buried February 1, 1865, aged forty-eight years. [19]

In her last days no doubt Caty would have reminisced her own childhood with her grandchildren. She may have told them about moving by covered wagon from Cynthiana, Kentucky, the crossing of the Ohio River and the Mad River over 100 small streams in the year 1803. She might have told them about her father planting the first orchard in the area and starting the Methodist Episcopal Church of the area in their home. She may have told them about the nine companies of militia that used the McKinnon land as their usual drill ground and that one of these was commanded by Captain McCord for whom Conrad had served as a Sergeant. (Ref#7 & #9) Caty might have explained how she had met Conrad and what it would have been like “back in those good ole days” of 1819.[20]

I think Conrad and Cordelia left for Iowa after August 14, 1855.
It was told to me by Mrs. Nordgren that Conrad Goodlove spent the first winter in Iowa near West Union in Fayette County with others from Ohio that were migrating to Iowa. I have a “paper”, which I found in my father’s possessions, that Earl Goodlove listed the names of several families that came to Iowa at this time, so it appears this move may have been a traditional “wagon train”.[23]
1855
The persons reported living with Conrad and Cordelia in the 1860 census probably came to Iowa with them in 1855. Their names and their ages in 1855 would have been:
Conrad - Age 62,
Cordelia - Age 44 (wife),
Maurice - Age 1, (their only child, a son),
William Harrison Goodlove - Age 28 (son of Catherine and Conrad --- my Great Grandfather)
James Hunter - Age 23 - (a nephew of Milton Read Hunter),
Franklin Hunter - Age 8 (a Grandson of Conrad by Nancy Goodlove Hunter)
Joseph V. Goodlove - Age 23 - (son of Conrad who died June 15, 1857, also buried in Oakshade Cemetery in Marion, Iowa).
According to my letter from Dorothy Nordgren, Cora had told her that “Conrad and group used a farm wagon pulled by a team of oxen. Conrad had a riding horse. William Harrison Goodlove had a pile of belongings and was ready to put in wagon. Conrad said to him and others “Are you going to carry these in a sack on your back?” “Well, they had to leave most behind as the boys walked on hills to lighten load. Just tools and essentials came. His wife, Cordelia, had a bedroom dresser shipped by railway later and oval mirror. (Dorothy has it.) she added in her letter.
Also in her letter Dorothy says that Cora told her, “They crossed the Mississippi near Dubuque”.
In talking about Oscar Goodlove, the missing son of William Harrison Goodlove, she made reference to Conrad. “He (Oscar) like Conrad liked horses and would be happy caring for them “. Ref#__.
In respect to Dorothy Norgren for her effort, I have enclosed all of her letter. It was as a result of visiting with Dorothy at the funeral home, Ref. # ___, that she sent me this information. A few days later I visited the Kentucky State Library and Historical Center in Frankfort -- and the search for Conrad and Caty began![24]
In 1855, Gottlober returned to his birthplace, Starokonstantinov, and taught there until 1865.[25]
August 14, 1861 - 79th NY troops mutinies[26]
August 14, 1861 - Martial Law is declared at St Louis, Missouri due to pro-secession sentiment which surged throughout Missouri after the Battle of Wilson's Creek.[27]
August 14, 1862 - Lincoln receives 1st group of blacks to confer with US president.[28]
August 14 1863: On the morning of August 14, 1863, a sudden gust of wind hit the building and it collapsed on its inmates, killing Susan Vandever, her sister Armenia Selvey, one of the Anderson girls and both McCorkle women. Another of Anderson’s sisters was so severely injured she was crippled for the rest of her life. Immediately, the rumor spread that the Federals had deliberately undermined the building with the intent of killing all of the southern women. Years later a lawsuit brought against the government by Bingham revealed that the building was actually one of the sturdier buildings on Grand Avenue. However, soldiers and the prostitutes had cut away portions of supporting timbers to make an easy entryway for soldiers into the den of the prostitutes from their barracks next door. For several days before the collapse, plaster had begun to fall from the ceilings as the weakened building began to sag. Some merchants, afraid that the building would collapse had removed their goods from the bottom floor the day before. This action fed the rumors that the Federals planned the collapse of the building. Planned or not, Ewing and his officers were clearly negligent in keeping any prisoners in the building. Ewing knew the outrage that would erupt if any deliberate harm came to these southern women under his care. The idea that he ordered the building destroyed with the women inside now appears ridiculous. At the time, the people of Kansas City and Jackson County believed the worst of the rumors. Even decades later the guerrillas believed the collapse was deliberate and the raid on Lawrence was the direct result of the outrage they felt.
The incident in Kansas City was just what Quantrill needed. A few days earlier, he had sent a spy to Lawrence to learn how the city was defended. This fact is proof that he had been planning the raid long before the collapse of the Kansas City jail. His spy reported that a small militia unit and a company of black Union soldiers in camp just outside of town were all that defended Lawrence. Quantrill used this fact and the outrage felt by the people of Jackson County to convince his men that the raid on Lawrence was worth the risk and might even achieve success. Such was the sentiment of the people that more than 350 men and boys joined with Quantrill to raid Lawrence, Kansas. Also joining the expedition was Colonel John Holt who was in Jackson Country recruiting for the Confederacy. He brought with him about one hundred raw recruits. With about 450 men, this was the largest group that Quantrill would ever command.
Quantrill managed to get this small army into Kansas almost undetected. When the alarm did go out, he had enough lead-time to get to Lawrence and accomplish his goals. Quantrill ordered his guerrillas to kill every man or boy old enough to hold a gun and loot and burn the homes of Jayhawkers selected from a list provided by Quantrill. Quantrill wanted the town burned to the ground. [29]

August 14, 1880 - Construction of Cologne Cathedral completed (began in 1248).[35]
1881: Gottlober also published Hebrew short stories: “Kol rinah vi-yeshu‘ah be-ohole tsadikim” (1875), “Hizaharu bi-vene ha-‘aniyim” (1880), and “Orot me-ofel” (1881). His stories commonly focused on issues that agitated the Jewish communities he was familiar with: unequal distribution of the burden of the Russian military draft, and obstacles in the way of youth who hoped to explore the Enlightenment. Gottlober also published a play, Tif’eret li-vene binah (1867).[36]
1881: Pogroms in southern Russia in 1881 shook Gottlober’s belief in the possibility of Jewish integration into Russian society. He joined the Ḥibat Tsiyon movement and began to express his views in his poetry.[37]
1881: Gottlober also often published in the Hebrew press, with his articles appearing in such periodicals as Kokheve Yitsḥak and Ha-Asif, and in the newspapers Ha-Magid, Ha-Melits, Ha-Shaḥar, and Ha-Ḥavatselet. In 1876, after a dispute with the editor of Ha-Shaḥar, Perets Smolenskin, Gottlober launched publication of the monthly Ha-Boker or, which served as the main platform for his writings until 1881. He was assisted in editing this periodical by Braudes and others. The monthly’s stance, as fashioned by Gottlober, was that of classical Haskalah, which dictated both its format and content. Like most Haskalah periodicals and newspapers of the time, Ha-Boker or’s contents included poetry and prose literature, popular science, feature articles, and literary criticism. It served as a platform for maskilim of Gottlober’s generation, such as Eli‘ezer Zweifel and Ze’ev Kaplan, as well as for maskilim of the second and third generations, including Naḥum Me’ir Shaikovits, Shelomoh Mandelkern, Y. L. Peretz, David Frishman, Sholem Yankev Abramovitsh (Mendele Moykher-Sforim), and Pesaḥ Roderman.
Because of the wide range of his activities, his proficiency in various languages, his diversified fields of interest, and his educational, literary, and journalistic activities—and because during his long lifetime he was acquainted with most of its major figures—Gottlober personified the Jewish Enlightenment of Eastern Europe more than any other East European maskil of his time. Despite his sharp criticism of various aspects of the life of traditional Jewish society, his roots remained deeply implanted in the world of that society. At the same time, he attached great importance to imparting the Haskalah heritage to the younger generation—and indeed, some of his disciples, among them Abramovitsh and Re’uven Kulisher, played important roles in shaping Jewish culture in the Russian Empire during the second half of the nineteenth century.

• 1881: As late as 1881 Civilta Cattolica, the Rome-based Jesuit organ, tried to demonstrate that ritual murder was, after all, an integral part of the Jewish religion.[39]
• 1881: The new confidence brought by emancipation was dealt a harsh blow with the outbreak of a vicious anti-Semitism in Russia and Eastern Europe under Tsar Alexander III in 1881. This spread to Western Europe. [40]
1881-1884
Pogroms sweep southern Russia, propelling mass Jewish emigration from the Pale of Settlement: about 2 million Russian Jews emigrated in period 1880-1924, many of them to the United States (until the National Origins Quota of 1924 and Immigration Act of 1924 and Immigration Act of 1924 largely halted immigration to the U.S. from Eastern Europe and Russia). The Russian word “pogrom” becomes international.[41]
Things are going fairly well for the Goodlove’s in Iowa, however our ancestors are fighting for their lives and we don’t even know it.

More on James Nix
James married Nellie Head.[44]
August 14, 1908 - Race riot in Springfield Illinois.[45]
August 14, 1929 - Jewish Agency for Palestine forms.[46]
August 14, 1941: Roosevelt and Churchill sign the Atlantic Charter, an eight point declaration of peace aims and terms. Smolensk is occupied by German forces.[47]
Convoy 19, August 14, 1942
We found a total of 1,015 deportees in Convoy 19. The men were in a slight majority. The largest age grouop for the men is between 43 and 64; for the women, between 39 and 64. There were more than 100 children under. 16.
Adolph Gottlieb born December 2, 1919 from Austria and Sidonie Gottlieb, born December 31, 1903 also of Austria were on board Convoy 19.[48]
The list is almost impossible to decipher. All the family names are blurred. They are followed bgy first name, date and place of birth, profession and nationality. The listing is not alphabetical, and is composed of five sublists, four from camps in the unoccupied zone and one from Drancy.
1. Les Milles, 236 ).
2. Recebedou, 63 names.
3. Noe, 56 names.
4. Rivesaltes, 395 names. The places of birth are not indicated. There were no children. From this camp there were (among a few others) 279 Germans, 76 Poles, and 24 Austrians. They came from the convoy which had left Rivesalotes on August 11 for Drancy, carrying 400 internees: 163 women, 229 men, and 8 children.
5. Drancy, 238 names. Many were families from Paris.
Among the 991 persons listed according to nationality were 571 Germans; 219 POoles; 83 Austrians; 71 French; 11 Russians; 6 Czechs; and 29 undetermined.
On August 14, SS Heinrichsohn composed the usual telex to Eichmann in Berlin, the Inspector of Concentration Camps at Oranienburg, and the Commandant of Auschwitz. He informed the addressees that on that day, at 8:55 AM, train #901/14 left with 1,000 Jews from the station at Drancy for Auschwitz, under the supervision of Feldwebel Kropp. A very important detail is indicated: Heinrichsohn states that “…for the first time, there are children (under 12)…”, (“darunter erstmalig kinder”).
Documents related to this convoy are XXVb-120 (of August 7), and XXVb-121 (of August 10.
Upon their arrival in Auschwitz, 115 men were selected for work (there were exactly 115 men between ages 18 and 42. All the others—at least 875 people, were immediately gassed. Neither woman nor child entered the camp. The 115 received numbers 59229 through 59343.
To the best of our knowledge, there was only one survivor from this convoy in 1945, Nathan Seroka.[49]
August 14, 1942: Arnold Gottlieb, born August 15,1908. Resided Stuttgart. Deportation: ab Drancy August 14,1942, (Frankriech (a)) Auschwitz, missing[50]
August 14, 1945
Bombed to destruction and assailed on all sides by their enemies, Japan announced its surrender on August 14, 1945. [51]
Japan accepts the Potsdam declaration on the condition that the Emperor Hirohito retains soverign status. Truman consents. [52]
Even with the advent of DNA as a research tool, the revelation of our Jewish ancestry adds a sense of devastation as the reality of the consequences of the German’s attempt to exterminate an entire race from the planet almost succeeds.[53]
•
The Diaspora or scattering of our family coincides with the scattering of the Jewish people as a whole throughout Europe. Through DNA we are bridging the gap of generations to find connections that were previously unknown. A bridge that goes back to the earliest days of Judaism.[54]
After World War II thousands of Jews were assembled in displaced person’s camps in Bavaria; the last one to be closed down was in Foehrenwald. Almost all of the 1,000 Bavarian Jews who survived the Holocaust were saved because they were married to Germans or were born of mixed marriages.[55]
August 14, 2011: What drives some to get genetic test?
Dr. Jeff Murray, principal investigator at the University of Iowa's Murray Laboratory and a world-renowned specialist in cleft palate deformities, used an online service to map his genome. (Jim Slosiarek/The Gazette)
IOWA CITY — With one mouse click, Jeff Murray could find out how likely he is to get Alzheimer’s disease, a form of dementia that slowly destroys memory and thinking.
The University of Iowa pediatrician, known for his work on cleft lip and cleft palate deformities, paid about $200 and submitted a vial of saliva for a genetic test.
Scientists first mapped the human genome in 2003. Online genetics labs, like 23andMe, Navigenics and deCODEme, now have made it possible — and affordable — for the common person to learn about his or her own DNA.
Some people, like Murray, are doing it because they are curious. He also teaches medical students about the tests and wanted a direct understanding of what they do.
Other people want to know whether they carry a genetic mutation for a disease that has wreaked havoc on their family for generations. The more you know about proven predispositions, the more you can do to protect yourself and your progeny against disease.
How much do we want to know, though?
Murray’s genetic profile, which he can pull up on the Internet, shows his risk, compared to the general population, of developing a host of diseases and medical conditions.
Like gout. Murray is genetically predisposed to the uric acid imbalance that can cause inflammatory arthritis in the feet. He’s already been diagnosed with gout, but now he knows his genes are partly to blame.
Murray has chosen not to learn whether he has genetic mutations that cause early-onset Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease.
“I haven’t looked at either of those because my family doesn’t want me to,” Murray said. “If I have (the mutations), there’s something like an 80 percent greater chance that I’ll get (the diseases), whereas most of the other risks are much smaller.”
Amanda Goodlove, a 29-year-old mother and first-grade teacher from Lisbon, had the test because “I felt it was important for me to find out for me and my children.”
Goodlove found out in 2010 that her 30-something cousin had breast cancer. Other women in the family also had been hit with the disease early in life. Goodlove decided to get a genetic test to see if she had a mutation of the BRCA1 gene, which increases susceptibility to early-onset breast cancer.
“We have two boys, but we would like a third (child),” Goodlove said. “Had I found out I had the gene, I don’t know that we would have a third. I don’t know that I would pass that on.”
After waiting a week for the result of the blood test, Goodlove learned she does not have the mutation. “I cried,” she said. “It’s pretty emotional whether you have it or not.”
Steve Groner, 53, of Tipton, spent four years thinking about whether he wanted to know if he carried the gene mutation that contributed to the ovarian cancer that killed his sister. On one hand, mutations of the BRCA2 gene would cause only slightly increased cancer risks for Groner. On the other hand, knowing whether he had the DNA marker could mean passing on valuable information to his female descendants.
“I decided to see if the disease continues to carry on for my granddaughters,” Groner said.
Women who have either of these mutations, which are markers of increased risk for a variety of cancers, may choose to get earlier mammograms or decide to have children early and then get a complete hysterectomy to reduce their chances of getting ovarian cancer, he said.
Groner’s genetic test showed he has the BRCA2 gene mutation. It will be up to Groner’s sons and granddaughters, now ages 3 and 6, to decide in future years whether they want to know if they, too, carry the DNA marker.
Not everyone is ready for what they might learn through genetic testing, said Julie Thompson, a nurse practitioner who counsels people about cancer risks for St. Luke’s Hospital in Cedar Rapids.
“It’s a huge decision, and there are a lot of ethical concerns that go with that,” Thompson said.
Thompson works with people who have been diagnosed with cancer and people who have a family history of cancer and want to know if they have an increased genetic risk of the disease. She asks her patients:
l Why do they want to be tested?
l What is their true family history?
l What do they plan to do with the information that comes from the genetic test?
Thompson also gives them the cruel truth: Even if they don’t have genetic markers for cancer, they can still get it.
“Seventy percent of cancer diagnoses are sporadic and have nothing to do with genetics,” she said.
Knowing about genetic predispositions for cancer can help patients get preventive health care, like earlier mammograms or colonoscopies. Sometimes insurance companies require genetic tests to approve the earlier treatments.
Some diseases don’t have preventive measures. The Alzheimer’s Association reports on its website that three genes have been found to cause or have links to the early-onset form of Alzheimer’s, which is, thus far, incurable.
These incidents of early-onset Alzheimer’s are rare and are fewer than 1 percent of all cases, the association reports.
Murray is concerned people will see “decreased risk” for specific diseases and may not watch out for trouble signs, like irregular moles that might be skin cancer. Just because your genes say you have a lower risk of heart disease doesn’t mean you can dine exclusively on doughnuts and beef sticks without repercussions.
“Genetics don’t determine who or what you are,” he said.
Murray believes it’s too late to put the genetics genie back into the bottle, even for online tests that don’t come with genetic counseling. He hopes people will seek advice — ideally before testing — from a health-care professional who can help them understand the tests and what they might reveal.

[14] Anishinabeg. "The Three Fires Confederacy." Collective name given to the Ottawa, Ojibway, and Potawatomi. They spoke an almost indistinguishable Algonquian tongue. The Anishinabeg intermarried and traded as a confederacy—although no common governing body kept them together like the Iroquois. As did the Lenape, the Anishinabeg referred to themselves as the "original people." They were pro-French during the French & Indian War and then pro-British during our Revolution.
