August 16, 1824: Son of George and Catherine HARRISON
HARRISON, GEORGE (?-?). George Harrison, one of Stephen F. Austin's Old Three Hundred colonists, received title to a sitio of land in the western part of what is now Brazoria County on August 16, 1824; there he established a plantation. In October 1824 he signed a petition for appointment of a surveyor in the San Jacinto area. He was living in the Cedar Lake section in October 1825, when he asked Austin to come there to treat with the Karankawa Indians. The census of 1826 classified Harrison as a farmer and stock raiser, aged between twenty-five and forty. He had a wife, Catherine, and two sons, one of whom, Andrew Jackson Harrison, was killed in the battle of the Alamo.

August 16, 1862: The Battle of Lone Jack
On August 16, 1862 Quantrill took a group of his men back to
Independence to grab as much loot and supplies as they could carry off. He left
strict orders for Hallar to keep Todd and the rest of the men in camp while he
was gone. This seems a strange order because Quantrill knew that a battle at
nearby Lone Jack was about to begin. Some historians believe that Quantrill
felt overshadowed by all of the high brass and had no desire to take orders as a
mere captain with little or no power to act on his own. The need to secure the
supplies left at Independence offered him an excuse to make himself absent.
Later that day Col. Hayes, Col. Thompson and two other recently arrived
Confederate regiments consisting of about 1,400 men attacked 800 Missouri
Union Militia troops under the command of Major Emory Foster behind
fortifications at Lone Jack. It was a bloody, vicious battle. For a while, it
seemed that the Union troops were winning. In desperation, Colonel Hayes sent
a courier to Quantrill’s camp ordering Quantrill to reinforce the Confederate
units. Hallar, unwilling to disobey Quantrill, refused to go. Hayes sent a second
urgent demand for help and finally William Gregg convinced Hallar to act.
Quantrill’s group moved to join the battle. Cole Younger and several others,
including Sim Whitsett, made it to the battlefield just in time to participate in
the fighting. The armies fought mostly on foot along a skirmish line and neither
side was able to advance. As the Confederates began to run out of ammunition
Cole Younger rode his horse along the front line, under heavy fire, minnie balls
whizzing by his head, distributing ammo to the embattled Confederate soldiers.
He slung a basket over one arm, held his reins in his other and tossed
ammunition to the soldiers on the front line as he rode by. Colonel Hayes
finally ordered Cole to dismount or the Colonel himself would shoot the horse
out from under him. When Cole dismounted, the Federal troops raised a
rousing cheer for him showing their admiration for his bravery. If Cole Younger
had been a soldier in the regular Union Army he probably would have won a
medal, perhaps even the Medal of Honor. Even the enemy documented his
brave act and years later it was testified to by former Union officers in regards
to outlaw Cole Younger’s character.
Finally, the Rebels captured Major Foster, the Federals retreated and
the Confederates won the battle. As the captured Foster lay wounded on his
cot, a guerrilla entered the tent and threatened to shoot him. Younger entered
the tent, grabbed the guerrilla and threw him out. Major Foster so trusted
Younger that he asked Cole to take the $700 he had on him and deliver it to his
mother in Warrensburg, Missouri. Cole kept his promise and years later Foster
was one of Younger’s most ardent supporters during Cole’s effort to gain a
parole and pardon from prison. One wonders what happened to this honesty
after Cole took up with the James brothers after the War.[12]
August 16, 1864”: William McKinnon Goodlove, on March 7, 1864 enlisted in the Union Army, K Co. 57th Inf Reg. in Ohio at the age of 18. Battle at Atlanta, Georgia on August 16, 1864.[13]

August 16, 1907: A synagogue of unknown age was present in Werneck. She was the center of Jewish community life in the place until around 1900. After the dissolution of the Jewish community in 1904, the synagogue was closed. The made of sandstone and in oil paint Aron-HA Kodesh (Tor ash clean) the synagogue Werneck went to the 1906/07 newly built synagogue in Geroda, which was solemnly inaugurated on August 16, 1907. In the destruction of the Interior of the synagogue in Geroda is likely to have been destroyed probably the Wernecker gate buchserstrasse clean.
Address/location of the synagogue: the grounds behind the present building Schönborn Street 3 (former main road 23)

The former synagogue in Werneck from demolition 1976 (preserved by Manfred Fuchs, Werneck)
To the photo above notes by M. Fuchs with a description of the situation today: "the high building far left still stands, in apartments and a shop are housed at present (2008)." The hidden building also stands in the background also still (today Schönborn road 3). The building in the Center is the House where the synagogue was once housed (address at that time: hauptstraße 23)-it was at the front of the building (Schönbornstraße 3, formerly the main road 22) grown. Most recently it was leased to various private individuals until the cessation approx. 1977-. "The small house under the tree which the former bath house, which was torn down along with the former synagogue."

August 16, 1907
• To the history of the synagogue
• A synagogue unknown age was in Werneck. It was until around 1900 center of the Jewish municipality life at the place. After dissolution of the Jewish municipality 1904 also the synagogue was closed. From sandstone manufactured and in Ölfarbe the seized Aron ha Kodesch (Tora shrine) of the synagogue Werneck came into the 1906/07 again built synagogue to Geroda, which was solemnly inaugurated on August 16, 1907. During the destruction of the interior arrangement of the synagogue in Geroda the Wernecker Tora shrine might have been probably destroyed.

August 16, 1920: Ottilie dutifully heard the objections to the Buck Creek proposal on August 16. After “a careful review and investigation of the merits of all claims and objections,” giving “due regard for the welgfare of adjoining districts and being fully advidsed in the premises,” he overruled them. Ottliewas concerned about whether the proposal met the letter of the law. It did, and he approved the boundaries as they had been specified in the petition filed by the Buck Creekers.” Apparently the tone and tenor of the hearing gave those filing objections no hope that an appeal to the county board of education could meet with success. Ottilie informed the objectors that they and any others who felt like them could more effectively voice their protest by voting against the proposal at the upcoming election. If as many people in the area were opposed to the plan as was claimned by the objectors, then the issue would be defeated.[18]
August 16, 1929: The following day coincided with mawlid (or mawsin al-nabi),[67] the anniversity of the birth of Islam's prophet, Muhammad. Muslim worshippers, after prayers on the esplanade of the Haram, passed through the narrow lane by the Wailing Wall and ripped up prayer books, and kotel notes (wall petitions), without harming however three Jews present. Contacted by Luke, al-Husseini undertook to do his best to maintain calm on the Haram, but could not stop demonstrators from gathering at the Wall. [19]
August 16, 1940
Vichy regulations creating a Doctors Guild limit the practice of medicine to persons born of French fathers.[20]
[21]
August 16, 1942: Cado requests prefects to prepare by August 16 lists of those to be arrested, and he orders them to prevent the emigration of any deportable Jews, evben those possessing exit visas.
Cado’s list of exemptions is relatively large, and when estimates of the numbers of Jews subject to arrest reach Vichy, Bousquet annuls most of the exempt categories to be certain that he can meet the commitment he has made to the Germans.[22]
August 16-18, 1942
The large Radom ghetto is liquidated. Eighteen thousand Jews are deported to Treblinka and 1,500 who resist deportations are shot on the spot. Four thousand Jews are put into a special labor ghetto in Radom.[23]
August 16, 1978: Unrest spread to Tehran when the bazaar was closed by the religious dominated Shopkeepers Association. Troops were out in the streets suppressing disorders. Demands were being made for the rigid enforcement of Islamic law with the closure of cinemas, bars, and night clubs. The agitators opposed television and the emancipation of women.[24]

August 1542: Norfolk was appointed Lieutenant-General north of Trent on January 29, 1541, and Captain-General in a campaign against the Scots in August 1542.[8]
August 15, 1534: Ignatius of Loyola and six classmates took initial vows that would lead to the creation of the Society of Jesus in September of 1540. In its early days, the Jesuits accepted Jewish converts and their descendants who were known as New Christians were admitted to the order. After the death of Loyola, the Jesuits adopted the Spanish attitudes and refused to accept New Chrisitians or their descendants as members. [9]
August 1548: Mary Stewart was sent to France in August 1548 to be raised with her husband-to-be, the dauphin, son of Henry II of France. Guise first planned to sail with her daughter from Dumbarton as far as Whithorn where she would make pilgrimage,[25] but returned instead for a council meeting in Edinburgh.[26]
At this time, the dedication of the Scottish book, The Complaynt of Scotland, recalled Mary of Guise's descent from Godfrey de Bouillon and claimed her courage and virtue exceeded those of the ancient heroines Tomyris, Semiramis and Penthesilea.[27]
August 1549: The cost of maintaining the Protector's massive armies and his permanent garrisons in Scotland also placed an unsustainable burden on the royal finances.[36] A French attack on Boulogne in August 1549 at last forced Somerset to begin a withdrawal from Scotland.[37][10][11]
August 15, 1561:Mary Queen of Scots sails from Calais, accompanied by three of her uncles, the Duke d'Aumale, the Grand Prior, and the Marquis d'Elbœuf, and many Scotch and French noblemen, among whom we find likewise Damville, rantôme, Castelnau de Mauvissière, and Chastelard. [12]
At the end of August 1561, Mary Queen of Scots nominates Lord James Stuart, the Earl of Huntly, and Maitland* (the younger of Lethington), her prime ministers. [13]
August 1563: Cardinal Lorraine proposes the Archduke Charles of Austria in marriage to Mary Queen of Scots; but she refuses to have him. [14]
August 1570: Norfolk continued to scheme for a marriage with Mary, and Elizabeth imprisoned him in the Tower of London between October 1569 and August 1570.[187][15]
August 1585: At that time the ambassador in England for the King of
France was the Honourable William de I'Aubespine, Baron
of Chateauneuf-sur-Cher, in Berry, councillor of his majesty ""s
council of state, who arrived there in August 1585, and
served the said lady the Scottish Queen in her business which
she had with the English Queen, as the other ambassadors
had done before him, and as he also had express commands
from the king his master. [16]
August 1585: The siege of Antwerp in the summer of 1585 by the Duke of Parma necessitated some reaction on the part of the English and the Dutch. The outcome was the Treaty of Nonsuch of August 1585, in which Elizabeth promised military support to the Dutch.[105] The treaty marked the beginning of the Anglo-Spanish War, which lasted until the Treaty of London in 1604.[17]
John Ballard was arrested on August 4, 1586, and presumably under torture he confessed and implicated Babington. Although Babington was able to receive the forged letter with the postscript, he was not able to reply with the names of the conspirators, as he was arrested while seeking a license to travel in order to see King Philip II of Spain, with the purpose of organizing a foreign expedition as well as ensuring his own safety.[20] The identities of the six conspirators were nevertheless discovered, and they were taken prisoner by August 15, 1586.
Mary's two secretaries, Claude Nau de la Boisseliere (d. 1605) and Gilbert Curle (d. 1609), were likewise taken into custody and interrogated.
The conspirators were sentenced to death for treason and conspiracy against the crown, and were sentenced to be hanged, drawn, and quartered. This first group included Babington, Ballard, Chidiock Tichborne, Sir Thomas Salisbury, Robert Barnewell, John Savage and Henry Donn. A further group of seven men, Edward Habington, Charles Tilney, Edward Jones, John Charnock, John Travers, Jerome Bellamy, and Robert Gage, were tried and convicted shortly afterward. Ballard and Babington were executed on September 20 along with the other men who had been tried with them. Such was the horror of their execution that Queen Elizabeth ordered the second group to be allowed to hang until dead before being disemboweled.[18]
August 1589: Henry's first marriage was not a happy one, and the couple remained childless. Henry and Margaret separated even before Henry succeeded to the throne in August 1589, and Margaret lived for many years in the Château d'Usson in the Auvergne. After Henry became king of France, it was of the utmost importance that he provide an heir to the crown in order to avoid the problem of a disputed succession. Henry himself favoured the idea of obtaining an annulment of his marriage to Margaret, and taking Gabrielle d'Estrées as his bride; after all, she had already borne him three children.[19]

Although he was a man of kindness, compassion and good humor, and was much loved by his people, Henry was the subject of attempts on his life by Pierre Barrière in August 1593[35] and Jean Châtel in December 1594.[36][20]

August 15, 1769: Birthdate of Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon had profound effect on the Jews of Europe. But if one asks “Was Napoleon good for the Jews” the best answer might be, “It depends.”[22]
The Battle of Long Island, August 15, 1776.
The first division of Hessians, some eight thousand strong, passed Sandy Hook on August 15, 1776, and landed at Staten Island amid salvoes of artillery and musketry. The division was under the command of Lieutenant-general Philip von Heister, a tough old soldier of the Seven Years’ War. It is related that when Landgrave Frederick II called him to command the Hessian expedititonary force, he did so in these terms: Heister, you must go along to America.””Very well, your Most Serene Highness, but I take the liberty of making a few requests.” “And what may they be?” “First, my debts must be paid, my wife and children must be taken care of until I come back, and if I should fall, my wife must have a pension.” When the Landgrave had smilingly assented, Heister cried out: “Now your Serene Highness shall see what this old head and these bones can do.”
The army collected on Staten Island under the command of Sir William Howe numbered, after the arrival of the Hessians, between twenty-five and thirty thousand soldiers. It was supported by a fleet under Sir William’s brother, Lord Howe. The opposing army of Washington was composed of some thirteen or fourteen thousand men, not more than six thousand of whom had any military experience, and whose officers were taken from civil life.
The Hessians were much struck with the appearance of wealth and plenty which they found on Staten Island. The colonists lived in comfortable houses surrounded by gardens and orchards. Their light red wagons drawn by two small horses excited the wonder of the Germans. A colonist on Staten Island lived as comfortably as a German country gentleman, and it seemed extraordinary to the Hessians that people should revolt against a government under which they enjoyed so many blessings. Many of the Amercans had fled from their homes on the approach of the Hessians, and those who remained were at first inclined to be surly when troops were quartered upon them; but when they saw that strict discipline was enforced, and that only regular requisitions were made, the fugitives returned, and relations of tolerance, if not of cordiality were soon extablished. The British government still hoped to reconcile the colonists to the rule of the mother country and strict orders had been given to prevent all excesses.[23]
About 18,000 Hessian troops first arrived in North America in 1776, with more coming in later. They landed at Staten Island in New York on August 15, 1776. Their first engagement was in the Battle of Long Island. The Hessians fought in almost every battle, although after 1777, the British used them mainly as garrison troops. An assortment of Hessians fought in the battles and campaigns in the southern states during 1778–80 (including Guilford Courthouse), and two regiments fought at the Siege of Yorktown in 1781.
The British use of Hessian troops rankled American sentiment, and pushed some Loyalists to favor the revolution. The British use of non-English speaking foreign troops to put down the rebellion was seen as insulting, as it treated British subjects no differently than non-British subjects. Pro-British Tories believed that the British colonists deserved more than mercenary foes.
August 15, 1777: The fleet came to anchor at Cape Henry. .[24]
The first court of the Yohogania county was held at Fort Dunmore (Pitt) December 23, 1776,[25] and that the courts continued to be held there until August 15, 1777. They were then held at the house of Andrew Heath.” This was on the west side of the Monongahela, a short distance above, and in sight of the present town of Elizabeth. The statement has frequently been made that the Yohogania court was at one time held at Redstone Old Fort, but this is a mistake, doubtless growing our of the fact that a board of Viginia commissioners sat at that place in the winter of 1779-80 for the purpose of deciding on land claims and issuing certificates to settlers.
Finally, when the long controverst between the two States was settled by the assignment of the disputed territory to Pennsylvania, the counties of Monongalia and Ohio, though greatly reduced in area, still retained teir names as counties of Virginia (as they are of West Virginia at the present time); but Yohogania, whose limits were wholly within the territory yielded to Pennsylvania, cesed to exist, and was thenceforward mentioned as Viginia’s “lost county.” [26]
August 15, 1792: Major John MacKinnon b 1752 Erray House Mishnish Estate Mull d 1841 buried Cill Chriosod. Married Dame Margaret Burgess Smithies Affleck. Marriage date August 15 1792 at Marylebone Church officiated by Rev John Harley. [27]
August 15, 1803(date approximate) Reverend Robert Armstrong, a traveler, suggests the name "Xenia" (Greek for "hospitality") as the name for the county seat of Greene County OH. Out of consideration for Owen Davis, one of the earliest settlers in the county and the first miller in the area, his wife Laticia cast the deciding vote. . [28]
August 15, 1812: Susan Simmons Winans was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife, who passed away August 7, 1864.

Metea
On the morning of August 15, 1812, the garrison at Fort Dearborn, the site of Chicago, was ready to leave. Orders had been received from General William Hull[30] to make a forced march to Detroit. Scouts had reported drums thumping in the villages and some tribes were painted for war.
Shortly after sunup Captain Nathan Heald, the post commander, led his men out of the tiny stockade. The ragged column of fifty regulars, flanking the women and children of the few families who had settled near the stockade, started out across the prairie.
From his hiding place, Metea gave the signal. His painted, howling warriers , outnumbering the troops, fell on the train and butchered most of the regulars and the settlers.[31]
August 15, 1812
Susans Simmons Winans[32] was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn[33] at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following Spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife.
The massacre followed the evacuation of the fort as ordered by the U.S. General William Hull. This event is also sometimes known as the Battle of Fort Dearborn. Fort Dearborn’s commander Captain Nathan Heald ordered all whiskey and gunpowder to be destroyed so it would no be seized by the local Indian tribes allied with the British, although he had agree to these terms a few hours earlier. He then prepared to abandon his post. Heald remained at Fort Dearborn until support arrived from Fort Wayne, Indiana, led by his wife’s uncle, Captain Wells. A column of 148 soldiers, women children then left Fort Dearborn intending to march to Fort Wayne. However, about one and a half miles (2 km) south of Fort Dearborn, at about what is now 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, a band of Potawatomi warriors ambushed the garrison, killing more than fifty and capturing the remainder as prisoners to sell to the British as slaves. The British purchased the captives and released them immediately afterwards.
Fort Dearborn was burned to the ground, and the region remained empty of U.S. citizens until after the war had ended.
Survivors' accounts differed on the role of the Miami warriors. Some said they fought for the Americans, while others said they did not fight at all. Regardless, William Henry Harrison claimed the Miami fought against the Americans, and used the Fort Dearborn massacre as a pretext to attack the Miami villages. Miami chief Pacanne and his nephew, Jean Baptiste Richardville, accordingly ended their neutrality in the War of 1812 and allied with the British. [34]

Our subject Robert Craig was married to Miss Sarah Godlove in 1841, in Perry County, Ohio; she was the daughter of Adam and Susannah (Tattman) Godlove), the former was born in Virginia, and his wife in Maryland. They were married and lived in Ohio, where they were early settlers of Perry County. They reared the following children: Sarah, Josiah, Bartholomew, Lizzie, Samuel, Catherine, Mary, Maggie and Benjamin, all of whom were born in Ohio. John was born in Iowa after the family came to this State in 1843.
Samuel was a soldier in the 10th Iowa, and enlisted at the beginning of the war. He fell at the battle Winchester, pierced by seventeen balls. The family moved to Iowa with teams, and settled on a small farm west of Yatton. There was only one log house there at that date, and it has long since been torn down.[44]
August 15, 1862: Following their defeat at the Battle of Baton Rouge on August 5, 1862, Confederate soldiers marched to Port Hudson and occupied the area on August 15, 1862. They constructed a series of river batteries along the bluffs and, in the monthes that followed, erected a 4 ½ mile line of earthworks to protect the land approach to the river batteries. [45]
August 15, 1862: After the battle of Independance, Quantrill and his men separated from the main force of the Confederate army and moved to a farm a few miles from the town of LoneJack. There, on August 15, 1862 Colonel Gideon Thompson officially swore Quantrill’s men into the Confederate Army. Sim Whitsett gave his date of
enlistment as August 12, 1862 in Company E of Shelby’s 2nd Missouri Cavalry
commanded by Upton Hayes. However, the official date was August 15, the day
of this swearing in ceremony rather than the day after the Battle of
Independence. Had he given a date a few days before the battle, I would say
that he was one of Upton Hayes’ regular recruits before he became a guerrilla.
Because he gave a date of enlistment after the Battle of Independence, I am
certain that he joined Quantrill rather than the regular Confederate Army in
August 1862.
After the War, many of Quantrill’s Raiders gave their dates of enlistment
as between August 11 and 15. Most claimed to be members of a Missouri
Cavalry unit under General Jo Shelby. There are no surviving records to
substantiate most of these claims. This is probably because General Shelby
destroyed most of his records at the end of the war to prevent retribution by
Union authorities against the Missouri men who rode with him. It is very likely
that he was especially sensitive to the records of former guerrillas. A similar
claim of Confederate service by Cole Younger is controversial with some
historians who insist, because of the lack of records, that he was never a
Confederate soldier. We must be careful about giving too much weight to the
latter argument. I personally believe that these men were officially sworn in to
the Confederate army and probably were given a designation as a unit of
cavalry. From August 1862 until the War’s end, the Confederate Army was
technically responsible for the actions of Quantrill and his men. Confederate
soldiers or not, the regular Confederate military soon found that it had little or
no control over Quantrill and his band.
As was the custom of the Confederate Army during the early part of the
Civil War, Quantrill’s men elected their officers soon after their swearing in
ceremony. They elected William Quantrill as Captain, William Hallar as First
Lieutenant (Hallar soon left the band), George Todd as Second Lieutenant and
William Gregg as Third Lieutenant.[46]
Mon. August 15, 1864:

August 15, 1898: In Convoy 30 of September 9, 1942, there was a clear predominance, in decreasing order, of Poles, Germans, and Austrians. More than 100 children under 17 were among the deportees.
On board Convoy 30 was Chaim Gottlieb, born August 15, 1898 from (stateless).[49]

August 15, 1929: Tisha B'Av, a day memorializing the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem, the revisionist Betar movement, despite Pinhas Rutenberg's plea on August 8 to the acting High Commissioner Harry Luke to stop such groups from participating,[64] rallied members from Tel Aviv to join them in the religious commemoration. Kisch, before leaving, had banned Jewish demonstrations in Jerusalem's Arab quarters. The Betar youth gave the ceremony a strong nationalist tinge by singing the Hatikvah, waving the flag of Israel, and chanting the slogan 'The Wall is Ours'.[65][66] [57]
August 15, 1941: Between May 15 and August 15, 1941:
Approximately 475,000 Jews were deported from Hungary in about 170 train loads of Hungarian Jews were sent to the death camp at Auschwitz. [58]
August 15, 1941: Heinrich Lohse, Reich commissioner for Eastern Territories of the Ostland (Eastern Europe) region, decrees that Jews must wear two yellow badges, one on the chest and one on the back; that Jews cannot own automobiles or radios; and that their presence in public places will be severely proscribed. [59]
August 15, 1941: A Jewish ghetto is established at Riga, Latvia. [60]
August 15, 1941: Last of the remaining 25,000 Jews in Kovno were removed to Viampole. Each is allotted three square feet of living space.[61]
August 15, 1941: Six hundred Jews are taken from Stawiski and shot in nearby woods.[62]
August 15, 1941: A massacre begins at Rokiskis that leaves 3,200 men, women and children, shot by the next evening. [63]

August 15, 1942: When they arrived in Auschwitz on June 24, the deportees received numbers 40681 to 41613 for 933 men, and 7961 to 8026 for the 66 women. On August 15, only 186 remained alive. In seven and a half weeks, the mortality rate was 80%.
As far as we know, only 23 survivors returned in 1945 from this convoy, five of them women.
In this Convoy 3, a young girl of 20, Annette Zelman, was deported. A French woman, she was guilty not only of being Jewish but also of having dared to be loved by a non-Jewish Frenchman. Document #XLII-27 of the CDJC, the police write-up on her, states:
“ Annette Zelman, Jew, born in Nancy on October 6, 1921. Arrested on May 23, 1942. Imprisoned by the Police Prefecture from May 23 to June 10; sent to the Tourelle camp from June 10 to June 21; transferred to Germany on June 22. Reason for arrest: intention to marry an Aryan, Jean Jausion. The two declared their written intention to give up the project to marry, according to Dr. Jausion’s desire, who had hoped that they would be dissuaded and the young Zelman girl would simply be returned to her family without any further trouble.” Continued but missing. [65]
August 15, 1942: Jews from Antwerp are deported to northern France for forced labor.[66]
August 15, 1942: The Germans open Jawiszowice, a slave-labor camp located near
Auschwitz. [67]
August 15, 1942: One thousand Belgian Jews, including 172 children, are deported to their deaths in the East. [68]
August 15-20, 1943: Nazi forces under Odilo Globocnik surround the Bialystok ghetto, and its 30,000 remaining Jews are ordered to appear for evacuation. A Jewish uprising breaks out in the ghetto.[69]
August 15, 1943: This convoy is numbered 64 because of a German mix-up in the files with the convoy of December 17, which is numbered 63. It (Convoy 64) carried 575 males and 422 females. The age composition of the youth was similar to Convoy 62, with 161 people under 18, of whom 106 were children under 12.
Also deported with this convoy was Raymond-Raoul Lambert, 49, President of the IGIF, his wife Simone, 39, and their four children. Their deportation at this time was due to the protests of Mr. Lambert to the Vichy Government (document XXVII-36, of August 15, 1943. [70]
Raymond-Raoul Lamberts Diary has been among the most important untranslated records of the experience of French Jews in the Holocaust. Lambert, a leader of the Union of French Jews (UGIF), was, in the words of the historian Michael Marrus, “arguably the most important Jewish official in contact with the Vichy government and the Germans.” Lambert’s Diary survived the war and was published in France in 1985. It reveals Lambert’s efforts to save the Jews in France, particularly the children.[71] The book is titled “Diary of a Witness, 1940-1943”, Ivan R. Dee, Publisher. ISBN: 1-56663-740-6/978-1-56663-740-4.
On November 30, Rothke had telexed to Eichmann that he was scheduling a convoy of 1,000 Jews for December 7 (XLIX-59). On December 3, Gunther, Eichmann’s assistant, telexed Berlin’s consent for this convoy (XLIX-33). On December 4, Hagen and Oberg contacted Himmler to advise him of the departure of the convoy (SLIX-33). The routine telex was signed by Rothke; the convoy left December 7 at 12:10 AM with 1,000 Jews from Paris/Bobigny, under the supervision of Lieutenant Wannenmacher (XLIX-32a).
There were at least four escapes en route to Auschwitz, among them that of Cesar Chamy, who was later recaptured and escaped a second time on August 17, 1944.
When they arrived in Auschwitz, 267 men were selected and received numbers 167442 through 167708. Seventy two women received numbers 70184 through 70255. The rest, 657, were gassed upon arrival.
On board Convoy 64 on December 7, 1943 was Fanny Gotlib born December 6, 1904 from St. Denis.[72]
August 15, 1944
The United States Seventh Army invades southern France[73]
August 15, 1972: William Roy Crawford died in Watertown, South Dakota on August 15, 1972; he was 83. William Roy married Lilly Viola STROUP.

[39] In 1893, George Pullman had a sculpture he had commissioned from Carl Rohl-Smith erected near his house. It portrayed the rescue of Margaret Helm, the stepdaughter of Chicago resident John Kinzie[3] and wife of Lt. Linai Thomas Helm, [4] by Potawatomi chief Black Partridge, who led her and some others to Lake Michigan and helped her escape by boat. [5] The monument was moved to the lobby of the Chicago Historical Society in 1931. In the 1970s, however, American Indian groups protested the display of the monument, and it was removed. In the 1990s, the statue was reinstalled near 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, close to its original site. It was later removed for conservation reasons by the Office of Public Art of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs.[6] There are some efforts to reinstall the monument, but it is meeting resistance from the Chicago American Indian Center.[5]

August 15, 1309: Knights of St. John, complete their conquest of Rhodes. Apparently the Knights treatment of the Jewish population was comparatively benign since many Sicilian conversos would move to the island because “they remembered the Knights’’ liberal policy towards the Jews or Rhodes.”[1]

August 1542: Norfolk was appointed Lieutenant-General north of Trent on January 29, 1541, and Captain-General in a campaign against the Scots in August 1542.[8]
August 15, 1534: Ignatius of Loyola and six classmates took initial vows that would lead to the creation of the Society of Jesus in September of 1540. In its early days, the Jesuits accepted Jewish converts and their descendants who were known as New Christians were admitted to the order. After the death of Loyola, the Jesuits adopted the Spanish attitudes and refused to accept New Chrisitians or their descendants as members. [9]
August 1548: Mary Stewart was sent to France in August 1548 to be raised with her husband-to-be, the dauphin, son of Henry II of France. Guise first planned to sail with her daughter from Dumbarton as far as Whithorn where she would make pilgrimage,[25] but returned instead for a council meeting in Edinburgh.[26]
At this time, the dedication of the Scottish book, The Complaynt of Scotland, recalled Mary of Guise's descent from Godfrey de Bouillon and claimed her courage and virtue exceeded those of the ancient heroines Tomyris, Semiramis and Penthesilea.[27]
August 1549: The cost of maintaining the Protector's massive armies and his permanent garrisons in Scotland also placed an unsustainable burden on the royal finances.[36] A French attack on Boulogne in August 1549 at last forced Somerset to begin a withdrawal from Scotland.[37][10][11]
August 15, 1561:Mary Queen of Scots sails from Calais, accompanied by three of her uncles, the Duke d'Aumale, the Grand Prior, and the Marquis d'Elbœuf, and many Scotch and French noblemen, among whom we find likewise Damville, rantôme, Castelnau de Mauvissière, and Chastelard. [12]
At the end of August 1561, Mary Queen of Scots nominates Lord James Stuart, the Earl of Huntly, and Maitland* (the younger of Lethington), her prime ministers. [13]
August 1563: Cardinal Lorraine proposes the Archduke Charles of Austria in marriage to Mary Queen of Scots; but she refuses to have him. [14]
August 1570: Norfolk continued to scheme for a marriage with Mary, and Elizabeth imprisoned him in the Tower of London between October 1569 and August 1570.[187][15]
August 1585: At that time the ambassador in England for the King of
France was the Honourable William de I'Aubespine, Baron
of Chateauneuf-sur-Cher, in Berry, councillor of his majesty ""s
council of state, who arrived there in August 1585, and
served the said lady the Scottish Queen in her business which
she had with the English Queen, as the other ambassadors
had done before him, and as he also had express commands
from the king his master. [16]
August 1585: The siege of Antwerp in the summer of 1585 by the Duke of Parma necessitated some reaction on the part of the English and the Dutch. The outcome was the Treaty of Nonsuch of August 1585, in which Elizabeth promised military support to the Dutch.[105] The treaty marked the beginning of the Anglo-Spanish War, which lasted until the Treaty of London in 1604.[17]
John Ballard was arrested on August 4, 1586, and presumably under torture he confessed and implicated Babington. Although Babington was able to receive the forged letter with the postscript, he was not able to reply with the names of the conspirators, as he was arrested while seeking a license to travel in order to see King Philip II of Spain, with the purpose of organizing a foreign expedition as well as ensuring his own safety.[20] The identities of the six conspirators were nevertheless discovered, and they were taken prisoner by August 15, 1586.
Mary's two secretaries, Claude Nau de la Boisseliere (d. 1605) and Gilbert Curle (d. 1609), were likewise taken into custody and interrogated.
The conspirators were sentenced to death for treason and conspiracy against the crown, and were sentenced to be hanged, drawn, and quartered. This first group included Babington, Ballard, Chidiock Tichborne, Sir Thomas Salisbury, Robert Barnewell, John Savage and Henry Donn. A further group of seven men, Edward Habington, Charles Tilney, Edward Jones, John Charnock, John Travers, Jerome Bellamy, and Robert Gage, were tried and convicted shortly afterward. Ballard and Babington were executed on September 20 along with the other men who had been tried with them. Such was the horror of their execution that Queen Elizabeth ordered the second group to be allowed to hang until dead before being disemboweled.[18]
August 1589: Henry's first marriage was not a happy one, and the couple remained childless. Henry and Margaret separated even before Henry succeeded to the throne in August 1589, and Margaret lived for many years in the Château d'Usson in the Auvergne. After Henry became king of France, it was of the utmost importance that he provide an heir to the crown in order to avoid the problem of a disputed succession. Henry himself favoured the idea of obtaining an annulment of his marriage to Margaret, and taking Gabrielle d'Estrées as his bride; after all, she had already borne him three children.[19]

Although he was a man of kindness, compassion and good humor, and was much loved by his people, Henry was the subject of attempts on his life by Pierre Barrière in August 1593[35] and Jean Châtel in December 1594.[36][20]
April 15, 1762: WILLIAM CRAWFORD TO THOMAS CLEYLAND

Jas. Keith.

August 15, 1769: Birthdate of Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon had profound effect on the Jews of Europe. But if one asks “Was Napoleon good for the Jews” the best answer might be, “It depends.”[22]
The Battle of Long Island, August 15, 1776.
The first division of Hessians, some eight thousand strong, passed Sandy Hook on August 15, 1776, and landed at Staten Island amid salvoes of artillery and musketry. The division was under the command of Lieutenant-general Philip von Heister, a tough old soldier of the Seven Years’ War. It is related that when Landgrave Frederick II called him to command the Hessian expedititonary force, he did so in these terms: Heister, you must go along to America.””Very well, your Most Serene Highness, but I take the liberty of making a few requests.” “And what may they be?” “First, my debts must be paid, my wife and children must be taken care of until I come back, and if I should fall, my wife must have a pension.” When the Landgrave had smilingly assented, Heister cried out: “Now your Serene Highness shall see what this old head and these bones can do.”
The army collected on Staten Island under the command of Sir William Howe numbered, after the arrival of the Hessians, between twenty-five and thirty thousand soldiers. It was supported by a fleet under Sir William’s brother, Lord Howe. The opposing army of Washington was composed of some thirteen or fourteen thousand men, not more than six thousand of whom had any military experience, and whose officers were taken from civil life.
The Hessians were much struck with the appearance of wealth and plenty which they found on Staten Island. The colonists lived in comfortable houses surrounded by gardens and orchards. Their light red wagons drawn by two small horses excited the wonder of the Germans. A colonist on Staten Island lived as comfortably as a German country gentleman, and it seemed extraordinary to the Hessians that people should revolt against a government under which they enjoyed so many blessings. Many of the Amercans had fled from their homes on the approach of the Hessians, and those who remained were at first inclined to be surly when troops were quartered upon them; but when they saw that strict discipline was enforced, and that only regular requisitions were made, the fugitives returned, and relations of tolerance, if not of cordiality were soon extablished. The British government still hoped to reconcile the colonists to the rule of the mother country and strict orders had been given to prevent all excesses.[23]
About 18,000 Hessian troops first arrived in North America in 1776, with more coming in later. They landed at Staten Island in New York on August 15, 1776. Their first engagement was in the Battle of Long Island. The Hessians fought in almost every battle, although after 1777, the British used them mainly as garrison troops. An assortment of Hessians fought in the battles and campaigns in the southern states during 1778–80 (including Guilford Courthouse), and two regiments fought at the Siege of Yorktown in 1781.
The British use of Hessian troops rankled American sentiment, and pushed some Loyalists to favor the revolution. The British use of non-English speaking foreign troops to put down the rebellion was seen as insulting, as it treated British subjects no differently than non-British subjects. Pro-British Tories believed that the British colonists deserved more than mercenary foes.
August 15, 1777: The fleet came to anchor at Cape Henry. .[24]
The first court of the Yohogania county was held at Fort Dunmore (Pitt) December 23, 1776,[25] and that the courts continued to be held there until August 15, 1777. They were then held at the house of Andrew Heath.” This was on the west side of the Monongahela, a short distance above, and in sight of the present town of Elizabeth. The statement has frequently been made that the Yohogania court was at one time held at Redstone Old Fort, but this is a mistake, doubtless growing our of the fact that a board of Viginia commissioners sat at that place in the winter of 1779-80 for the purpose of deciding on land claims and issuing certificates to settlers.
Finally, when the long controverst between the two States was settled by the assignment of the disputed territory to Pennsylvania, the counties of Monongalia and Ohio, though greatly reduced in area, still retained teir names as counties of Virginia (as they are of West Virginia at the present time); but Yohogania, whose limits were wholly within the territory yielded to Pennsylvania, cesed to exist, and was thenceforward mentioned as Viginia’s “lost county.” [26]
August 15, 1792: Major John MacKinnon b 1752 Erray House Mishnish Estate Mull d 1841 buried Cill Chriosod. Married Dame Margaret Burgess Smithies Affleck. Marriage date August 15 1792 at Marylebone Church officiated by Rev John Harley. [27]
August 15, 1803(date approximate) Reverend Robert Armstrong, a traveler, suggests the name "Xenia" (Greek for "hospitality") as the name for the county seat of Greene County OH. Out of consideration for Owen Davis, one of the earliest settlers in the county and the first miller in the area, his wife Laticia cast the deciding vote. . [28]
August 15, 1812: Susan Simmons Winans was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife, who passed away August 7, 1864.

Metea
On the morning of August 15, 1812, the garrison at Fort Dearborn, the site of Chicago, was ready to leave. Orders had been received from General William Hull[30] to make a forced march to Detroit. Scouts had reported drums thumping in the villages and some tribes were painted for war.
Shortly after sunup Captain Nathan Heald, the post commander, led his men out of the tiny stockade. The ragged column of fifty regulars, flanking the women and children of the few families who had settled near the stockade, started out across the prairie.
From his hiding place, Metea gave the signal. His painted, howling warriers , outnumbering the troops, fell on the train and butchered most of the regulars and the settlers.[31]
August 15, 1812
Susans Simmons Winans[32] was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn[33] at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following Spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife.
The massacre followed the evacuation of the fort as ordered by the U.S. General William Hull. This event is also sometimes known as the Battle of Fort Dearborn. Fort Dearborn’s commander Captain Nathan Heald ordered all whiskey and gunpowder to be destroyed so it would no be seized by the local Indian tribes allied with the British, although he had agree to these terms a few hours earlier. He then prepared to abandon his post. Heald remained at Fort Dearborn until support arrived from Fort Wayne, Indiana, led by his wife’s uncle, Captain Wells. A column of 148 soldiers, women children then left Fort Dearborn intending to march to Fort Wayne. However, about one and a half miles (2 km) south of Fort Dearborn, at about what is now 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, a band of Potawatomi warriors ambushed the garrison, killing more than fifty and capturing the remainder as prisoners to sell to the British as slaves. The British purchased the captives and released them immediately afterwards.
Fort Dearborn was burned to the ground, and the region remained empty of U.S. citizens until after the war had ended.
Survivors' accounts differed on the role of the Miami warriors. Some said they fought for the Americans, while others said they did not fight at all. Regardless, William Henry Harrison claimed the Miami fought against the Americans, and used the Fort Dearborn massacre as a pretext to attack the Miami villages. Miami chief Pacanne and his nephew, Jean Baptiste Richardville, accordingly ended their neutrality in the War of 1812 and allied with the British. [34]

Our subject Robert Craig was married to Miss Sarah Godlove in 1841, in Perry County, Ohio; she was the daughter of Adam and Susannah (Tattman) Godlove), the former was born in Virginia, and his wife in Maryland. They were married and lived in Ohio, where they were early settlers of Perry County. They reared the following children: Sarah, Josiah, Bartholomew, Lizzie, Samuel, Catherine, Mary, Maggie and Benjamin, all of whom were born in Ohio. John was born in Iowa after the family came to this State in 1843.
Samuel was a soldier in the 10th Iowa, and enlisted at the beginning of the war. He fell at the battle Winchester, pierced by seventeen balls. The family moved to Iowa with teams, and settled on a small farm west of Yatton. There was only one log house there at that date, and it has long since been torn down.[44]
August 15, 1862: Following their defeat at the Battle of Baton Rouge on August 5, 1862, Confederate soldiers marched to Port Hudson and occupied the area on August 15, 1862. They constructed a series of river batteries along the bluffs and, in the monthes that followed, erected a 4 ½ mile line of earthworks to protect the land approach to the river batteries. [45]
August 15, 1862: After the battle of Independance, Quantrill and his men separated from the main force of the Confederate army and moved to a farm a few miles from the town of LoneJack. There, on August 15, 1862 Colonel Gideon Thompson officially swore Quantrill’s men into the Confederate Army. Sim Whitsett gave his date of
enlistment as August 12, 1862 in Company E of Shelby’s 2nd Missouri Cavalry
commanded by Upton Hayes. However, the official date was August 15, the day
of this swearing in ceremony rather than the day after the Battle of
Independence. Had he given a date a few days before the battle, I would say
that he was one of Upton Hayes’ regular recruits before he became a guerrilla.
Because he gave a date of enlistment after the Battle of Independence, I am
certain that he joined Quantrill rather than the regular Confederate Army in
August 1862.
After the War, many of Quantrill’s Raiders gave their dates of enlistment
as between August 11 and 15. Most claimed to be members of a Missouri
Cavalry unit under General Jo Shelby. There are no surviving records to
substantiate most of these claims. This is probably because General Shelby
destroyed most of his records at the end of the war to prevent retribution by
Union authorities against the Missouri men who rode with him. It is very likely
that he was especially sensitive to the records of former guerrillas. A similar
claim of Confederate service by Cole Younger is controversial with some
historians who insist, because of the lack of records, that he was never a
Confederate soldier. We must be careful about giving too much weight to the
latter argument. I personally believe that these men were officially sworn in to
the Confederate army and probably were given a designation as a unit of
cavalry. From August 1862 until the War’s end, the Confederate Army was
technically responsible for the actions of Quantrill and his men. Confederate
soldiers or not, the regular Confederate military soon found that it had little or
no control over Quantrill and his band.
As was the custom of the Confederate Army during the early part of the
Civil War, Quantrill’s men elected their officers soon after their swearing in
ceremony. They elected William Quantrill as Captain, William Hallar as First
Lieutenant (Hallar soon left the band), George Todd as Second Lieutenant and
William Gregg as Third Lieutenant.[46]

August 15, 1929: Tisha B'Av, a day memorializing the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem, the revisionist Betar movement, despite Pinhas Rutenberg's plea on August 8 to the acting High Commissioner Harry Luke to stop such groups from participating,[64] rallied members from Tel Aviv to join them in the religious commemoration. Kisch, before leaving, had banned Jewish demonstrations in Jerusalem's Arab quarters. The Betar youth gave the ceremony a strong nationalist tinge by singing the Hatikvah, waving the flag of Israel, and chanting the slogan 'The Wall is Ours'.[65][66] [57]

Approximately 475,000 Jews were deported from Hungary in about 170 train loads of Hungarian Jews were sent to the death camp at Auschwitz. [58]
August 15, 1941: Heinrich Lohse, Reich commissioner for Eastern Territories of the Ostland (Eastern Europe) region, decrees that Jews must wear two yellow badges, one on the chest and one on the back; that Jews cannot own automobiles or radios; and that their presence in public places will be severely proscribed. [59]
August 15, 1941: A Jewish ghetto is established at Riga, Latvia. [60]

100_1213[64]
August 15, 1942: When they arrived in Auschwitz on June 24, the deportees received numbers 40681 to 41613 for 933 men, and 7961 to 8026 for the 66 women. On August 15, only 186 remained alive. In seven and a half weeks, the mortality rate was 80%.
As far as we know, only 23 survivors returned in 1945 from this convoy, five of them women.
In this Convoy 3, a young girl of 20, Annette Zelman, was deported. A French woman, she was guilty not only of being Jewish but also of having dared to be loved by a non-Jewish Frenchman. Document #XLII-27 of the CDJC, the police write-up on her, states:
“ Annette Zelman, Jew, born in Nancy on October 6, 1921. Arrested on May 23, 1942. Imprisoned by the Police Prefecture from May 23 to June 10; sent to the Tourelle camp from June 10 to June 21; transferred to Germany on June 22. Reason for arrest: intention to marry an Aryan, Jean Jausion. The two declared their written intention to give up the project to marry, according to Dr. Jausion’s desire, who had hoped that they would be dissuaded and the young Zelman girl would simply be returned to her family without any further trouble.” Continued but missing. [65]

August 15-20, 1943: Nazi forces under Odilo Globocnik surround the Bialystok ghetto, and its 30,000 remaining Jews are ordered to appear for evacuation. A Jewish uprising breaks out in the ghetto.[69]
August 15, 1943: This convoy is numbered 64 because of a German mix-up in the files with the convoy of December 17, which is numbered 63. It (Convoy 64) carried 575 males and 422 females. The age composition of the youth was similar to Convoy 62, with 161 people under 18, of whom 106 were children under 12.
Also deported with this convoy was Raymond-Raoul Lambert, 49, President of the IGIF, his wife Simone, 39, and their four children. Their deportation at this time was due to the protests of Mr. Lambert to the Vichy Government (document XXVII-36, of August 15, 1943. [70]
Raymond-Raoul Lamberts Diary has been among the most important untranslated records of the experience of French Jews in the Holocaust. Lambert, a leader of the Union of French Jews (UGIF), was, in the words of the historian Michael Marrus, “arguably the most important Jewish official in contact with the Vichy government and the Germans.” Lambert’s Diary survived the war and was published in France in 1985. It reveals Lambert’s efforts to save the Jews in France, particularly the children.[71] The book is titled “Diary of a Witness, 1940-1943”, Ivan R. Dee, Publisher. ISBN: 1-56663-740-6/978-1-56663-740-4.
On November 30, Rothke had telexed to Eichmann that he was scheduling a convoy of 1,000 Jews for December 7 (XLIX-59). On December 3, Gunther, Eichmann’s assistant, telexed Berlin’s consent for this convoy (XLIX-33). On December 4, Hagen and Oberg contacted Himmler to advise him of the departure of the convoy (SLIX-33). The routine telex was signed by Rothke; the convoy left December 7 at 12:10 AM with 1,000 Jews from Paris/Bobigny, under the supervision of Lieutenant Wannenmacher (XLIX-32a).
There were at least four escapes en route to Auschwitz, among them that of Cesar Chamy, who was later recaptured and escaped a second time on August 17, 1944.
When they arrived in Auschwitz, 267 men were selected and received numbers 167442 through 167708. Seventy two women received numbers 70184 through 70255. The rest, 657, were gassed upon arrival.
On board Convoy 64 on December 7, 1943 was Fanny Gotlib born December 6, 1904 from St. Denis.[72]
August 15, 1944

[39] In 1893, George Pullman had a sculpture he had commissioned from Carl Rohl-Smith erected near his house. It portrayed the rescue of Margaret Helm, the stepdaughter of Chicago resident John Kinzie[3] and wife of Lt. Linai Thomas Helm, [4] by Potawatomi chief Black Partridge, who led her and some others to Lake Michigan and helped her escape by boat. [5] The monument was moved to the lobby of the Chicago Historical Society in 1931. In the 1970s, however, American Indian groups protested the display of the monument, and it was removed. In the 1990s, the statue was reinstalled near 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, close to its original site. It was later removed for conservation reasons by the Office of Public Art of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs.[6] There are some efforts to reinstall the monument, but it is meeting resistance from the Chicago American Indian Center.[5]

August 15, 1309: Knights of St. John, complete their conquest of Rhodes. Apparently the Knights treatment of the Jewish population was comparatively benign since many Sicilian conversos would move to the island because “they remembered the Knights’’ liberal policy towards the Jews or Rhodes.”[1]

August 1542: Norfolk was appointed Lieutenant-General north of Trent on January 29, 1541, and Captain-General in a campaign against the Scots in August 1542.[8]
August 15, 1534: Ignatius of Loyola and six classmates took initial vows that would lead to the creation of the Society of Jesus in September of 1540. In its early days, the Jesuits accepted Jewish converts and their descendants who were known as New Christians were admitted to the order. After the death of Loyola, the Jesuits adopted the Spanish attitudes and refused to accept New Chrisitians or their descendants as members. [9]
August 1548: Mary Stewart was sent to France in August 1548 to be raised with her husband-to-be, the dauphin, son of Henry II of France. Guise first planned to sail with her daughter from Dumbarton as far as Whithorn where she would make pilgrimage,[25] but returned instead for a council meeting in Edinburgh.[26]
At this time, the dedication of the Scottish book, The Complaynt of Scotland, recalled Mary of Guise's descent from Godfrey de Bouillon and claimed her courage and virtue exceeded those of the ancient heroines Tomyris, Semiramis and Penthesilea.[27]
August 1549: The cost of maintaining the Protector's massive armies and his permanent garrisons in Scotland also placed an unsustainable burden on the royal finances.[36] A French attack on Boulogne in August 1549 at last forced Somerset to begin a withdrawal from Scotland.[37][10][11]
August 15, 1561:Mary Queen of Scots sails from Calais, accompanied by three of her uncles, the Duke d'Aumale, the Grand Prior, and the Marquis d'Elbœuf, and many Scotch and French noblemen, among whom we find likewise Damville, rantôme, Castelnau de Mauvissière, and Chastelard. [12]
At the end of August 1561, Mary Queen of Scots nominates Lord James Stuart, the Earl of Huntly, and Maitland* (the younger of Lethington), her prime ministers. [13]
August 1563: Cardinal Lorraine proposes the Archduke Charles of Austria in marriage to Mary Queen of Scots; but she refuses to have him. [14]
August 1570: Norfolk continued to scheme for a marriage with Mary, and Elizabeth imprisoned him in the Tower of London between October 1569 and August 1570.[187][15]
August 1585: At that time the ambassador in England for the King of
France was the Honourable William de I'Aubespine, Baron
of Chateauneuf-sur-Cher, in Berry, councillor of his majesty ""s
council of state, who arrived there in August 1585, and
served the said lady the Scottish Queen in her business which
she had with the English Queen, as the other ambassadors
had done before him, and as he also had express commands
from the king his master. [16]
August 1585: The siege of Antwerp in the summer of 1585 by the Duke of Parma necessitated some reaction on the part of the English and the Dutch. The outcome was the Treaty of Nonsuch of August 1585, in which Elizabeth promised military support to the Dutch.[105] The treaty marked the beginning of the Anglo-Spanish War, which lasted until the Treaty of London in 1604.[17]
John Ballard was arrested on August 4, 1586, and presumably under torture he confessed and implicated Babington. Although Babington was able to receive the forged letter with the postscript, he was not able to reply with the names of the conspirators, as he was arrested while seeking a license to travel in order to see King Philip II of Spain, with the purpose of organizing a foreign expedition as well as ensuring his own safety.[20] The identities of the six conspirators were nevertheless discovered, and they were taken prisoner by August 15, 1586.
Mary's two secretaries, Claude Nau de la Boisseliere (d. 1605) and Gilbert Curle (d. 1609), were likewise taken into custody and interrogated.
The conspirators were sentenced to death for treason and conspiracy against the crown, and were sentenced to be hanged, drawn, and quartered. This first group included Babington, Ballard, Chidiock Tichborne, Sir Thomas Salisbury, Robert Barnewell, John Savage and Henry Donn. A further group of seven men, Edward Habington, Charles Tilney, Edward Jones, John Charnock, John Travers, Jerome Bellamy, and Robert Gage, were tried and convicted shortly afterward. Ballard and Babington were executed on September 20 along with the other men who had been tried with them. Such was the horror of their execution that Queen Elizabeth ordered the second group to be allowed to hang until dead before being disemboweled.[18]
August 1589: Henry's first marriage was not a happy one, and the couple remained childless. Henry and Margaret separated even before Henry succeeded to the throne in August 1589, and Margaret lived for many years in the Château d'Usson in the Auvergne. After Henry became king of France, it was of the utmost importance that he provide an heir to the crown in order to avoid the problem of a disputed succession. Henry himself favoured the idea of obtaining an annulment of his marriage to Margaret, and taking Gabrielle d'Estrées as his bride; after all, she had already borne him three children.[19]

Although he was a man of kindness, compassion and good humor, and was much loved by his people, Henry was the subject of attempts on his life by Pierre Barrière in August 1593[35] and Jean Châtel in December 1594.[36][20]
April 15, 1762: WILLIAM CRAWFORD TO THOMAS CLEYLAND
George Ill by the Grace of God, of Great Britain, France and Ireland, King defender of the faith &c to Matthew Harrison and James Wood of the County of Frederick, Gentlemen Greeting:
Whereas William Crawford and Hannah by their deeds of Lease and Release bearing dates of the fifth and sixth days of April One Thousand Seven Hundred and Sixty Two Have sold and conveyed unto Thomas Cleyland the fee simple Estate of in and to a certain tract of land situate and lying and being in the said county of Frederick containing two hundred and forty acres and whereas the said Hannah cannot conveniently travel to the court of our said county to make acknowledgement of the same therefore we command you, that you do personally go to the said Hannah and receive her acknowledgment.

Witness James Keith, Clerk of our said Court at the Court House of county, the 15th day of (August 15) August in the fourth year of our reign.
Jas. Keith.
By virtue of the within Commission to us directed we did personally go to the within named Hannah Crawford, wife of William Crawford who being examined privately and apart from the said William Crawford her husband did freely and voluntarily relinquish her right of dower to lands mentioned in the within (sic) to the within Thomas Cleyland and desired the said Deed with her acknowlegement to be recorded. Given under our hands and seals this fifth day of September (September 5) 1764.[21]
August 15, 1769: Birthdate of Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon had profound effect on the Jews of Europe. But if one asks “Was Napoleon good for the Jews” the best answer might be, “It depends.”[22]
The Battle of Long Island, August 15, 1776.
The first division of Hessians, some eight thousand strong, passed Sandy Hook on August 15, 1776, and landed at Staten Island amid salvoes of artillery and musketry. The division was under the command of Lieutenant-general Philip von Heister, a tough old soldier of the Seven Years’ War. It is related that when Landgrave Frederick II called him to command the Hessian expedititonary force, he did so in these terms: Heister, you must go along to America.””Very well, your Most Serene Highness, but I take the liberty of making a few requests.” “And what may they be?” “First, my debts must be paid, my wife and children must be taken care of until I come back, and if I should fall, my wife must have a pension.” When the Landgrave had smilingly assented, Heister cried out: “Now your Serene Highness shall see what this old head and these bones can do.”
The army collected on Staten Island under the command of Sir William Howe numbered, after the arrival of the Hessians, between twenty-five and thirty thousand soldiers. It was supported by a fleet under Sir William’s brother, Lord Howe. The opposing army of Washington was composed of some thirteen or fourteen thousand men, not more than six thousand of whom had any military experience, and whose officers were taken from civil life.
The Hessians were much struck with the appearance of wealth and plenty which they found on Staten Island. The colonists lived in comfortable houses surrounded by gardens and orchards. Their light red wagons drawn by two small horses excited the wonder of the Germans. A colonist on Staten Island lived as comfortably as a German country gentleman, and it seemed extraordinary to the Hessians that people should revolt against a government under which they enjoyed so many blessings. Many of the Amercans had fled from their homes on the approach of the Hessians, and those who remained were at first inclined to be surly when troops were quartered upon them; but when they saw that strict discipline was enforced, and that only regular requisitions were made, the fugitives returned, and relations of tolerance, if not of cordiality were soon extablished. The British government still hoped to reconcile the colonists to the rule of the mother country and strict orders had been given to prevent all excesses.[23]
About 18,000 Hessian troops first arrived in North America in 1776, with more coming in later. They landed at Staten Island in New York on August 15, 1776. Their first engagement was in the Battle of Long Island. The Hessians fought in almost every battle, although after 1777, the British used them mainly as garrison troops. An assortment of Hessians fought in the battles and campaigns in the southern states during 1778–80 (including Guilford Courthouse), and two regiments fought at the Siege of Yorktown in 1781.
The British use of Hessian troops rankled American sentiment, and pushed some Loyalists to favor the revolution. The British use of non-English speaking foreign troops to put down the rebellion was seen as insulting, as it treated British subjects no differently than non-British subjects. Pro-British Tories believed that the British colonists deserved more than mercenary foes.
August 15, 1777: The fleet came to anchor at Cape Henry. .[24]
The first court of the Yohogania county was held at Fort Dunmore (Pitt) December 23, 1776,[25] and that the courts continued to be held there until August 15, 1777. They were then held at the house of Andrew Heath.” This was on the west side of the Monongahela, a short distance above, and in sight of the present town of Elizabeth. The statement has frequently been made that the Yohogania court was at one time held at Redstone Old Fort, but this is a mistake, doubtless growing our of the fact that a board of Viginia commissioners sat at that place in the winter of 1779-80 for the purpose of deciding on land claims and issuing certificates to settlers.
Finally, when the long controverst between the two States was settled by the assignment of the disputed territory to Pennsylvania, the counties of Monongalia and Ohio, though greatly reduced in area, still retained teir names as counties of Virginia (as they are of West Virginia at the present time); but Yohogania, whose limits were wholly within the territory yielded to Pennsylvania, cesed to exist, and was thenceforward mentioned as Viginia’s “lost county.” [26]

August 15, 1803(date approximate) Reverend Robert Armstrong, a traveler, suggests the name "Xenia" (Greek for "hospitality") as the name for the county seat of Greene County OH. Out of consideration for Owen Davis, one of the earliest settlers in the county and the first miller in the area, his wife Laticia cast the deciding vote. . [28]

Metea
On the morning of August 15, 1812, the garrison at Fort Dearborn, the site of Chicago, was ready to leave. Orders had been received from General William Hull[30] to make a forced march to Detroit. Scouts had reported drums thumping in the villages and some tribes were painted for war.
Shortly after sunup Captain Nathan Heald, the post commander, led his men out of the tiny stockade. The ragged column of fifty regulars, flanking the women and children of the few families who had settled near the stockade, started out across the prairie.
From his hiding place, Metea gave the signal. His painted, howling warriers , outnumbering the troops, fell on the train and butchered most of the regulars and the settlers.[31]
August 15, 1812
Susans Simmons Winans[32] was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn[33] at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following Spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife.
The massacre followed the evacuation of the fort as ordered by the U.S. General William Hull. This event is also sometimes known as the Battle of Fort Dearborn. Fort Dearborn’s commander Captain Nathan Heald ordered all whiskey and gunpowder to be destroyed so it would no be seized by the local Indian tribes allied with the British, although he had agree to these terms a few hours earlier. He then prepared to abandon his post. Heald remained at Fort Dearborn until support arrived from Fort Wayne, Indiana, led by his wife’s uncle, Captain Wells. A column of 148 soldiers, women children then left Fort Dearborn intending to march to Fort Wayne. However, about one and a half miles (2 km) south of Fort Dearborn, at about what is now 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, a band of Potawatomi warriors ambushed the garrison, killing more than fifty and capturing the remainder as prisoners to sell to the British as slaves. The British purchased the captives and released them immediately afterwards.
Fort Dearborn was burned to the ground, and the region remained empty of U.S. citizens until after the war had ended.
Survivors' accounts differed on the role of the Miami warriors. Some said they fought for the Americans, while others said they did not fight at all. Regardless, William Henry Harrison claimed the Miami fought against the Americans, and used the Fort Dearborn massacre as a pretext to attack the Miami villages. Miami chief Pacanne and his nephew, Jean Baptiste Richardville, accordingly ended their neutrality in the War of 1812 and allied with the British. [34]

Our subject Robert Craig was married to Miss Sarah Godlove in 1841, in Perry County, Ohio; she was the daughter of Adam and Susannah (Tattman) Godlove), the former was born in Virginia, and his wife in Maryland. They were married and lived in Ohio, where they were early settlers of Perry County. They reared the following children: Sarah, Josiah, Bartholomew, Lizzie, Samuel, Catherine, Mary, Maggie and Benjamin, all of whom were born in Ohio. John was born in Iowa after the family came to this State in 1843.
Samuel was a soldier in the 10th Iowa, and enlisted at the beginning of the war. He fell at the battle Winchester, pierced by seventeen balls. The family moved to Iowa with teams, and settled on a small farm west of Yatton. There was only one log house there at that date, and it has long since been torn down.[44]
August 15, 1862: Following their defeat at the Battle of Baton Rouge on August 5, 1862, Confederate soldiers marched to Port Hudson and occupied the area on August 15, 1862. They constructed a series of river batteries along the bluffs and, in the monthes that followed, erected a 4 ½ mile line of earthworks to protect the land approach to the river batteries. [45]
August 15, 1862: After the battle of Independance, Quantrill and his men separated from the main force of the Confederate army and moved to a farm a few miles from the town of LoneJack. There, on August 15, 1862 Colonel Gideon Thompson officially swore Quantrill’s men into the Confederate Army. Sim Whitsett gave his date of
enlistment as August 12, 1862 in Company E of Shelby’s 2nd Missouri Cavalry
commanded by Upton Hayes. However, the official date was August 15, the day
of this swearing in ceremony rather than the day after the Battle of
Independence. Had he given a date a few days before the battle, I would say
that he was one of Upton Hayes’ regular recruits before he became a guerrilla.
Because he gave a date of enlistment after the Battle of Independence, I am
certain that he joined Quantrill rather than the regular Confederate Army in
August 1862.
After the War, many of Quantrill’s Raiders gave their dates of enlistment
as between August 11 and 15. Most claimed to be members of a Missouri
Cavalry unit under General Jo Shelby. There are no surviving records to
substantiate most of these claims. This is probably because General Shelby
destroyed most of his records at the end of the war to prevent retribution by
Union authorities against the Missouri men who rode with him. It is very likely
that he was especially sensitive to the records of former guerrillas. A similar
claim of Confederate service by Cole Younger is controversial with some
historians who insist, because of the lack of records, that he was never a
Confederate soldier. We must be careful about giving too much weight to the
latter argument. I personally believe that these men were officially sworn in to
the Confederate army and probably were given a designation as a unit of
cavalry. From August 1862 until the War’s end, the Confederate Army was
technically responsible for the actions of Quantrill and his men. Confederate
soldiers or not, the regular Confederate military soon found that it had little or
no control over Quantrill and his band.
As was the custom of the Confederate Army during the early part of the
Civil War, Quantrill’s men elected their officers soon after their swearing in
ceremony. They elected William Quantrill as Captain, William Hallar as First
Lieutenant (Hallar soon left the band), George Todd as Second Lieutenant and
William Gregg as Third Lieutenant.[46]
Mon. August 15, 1864:

August 15, 1898: In Convoy 30 of September 9, 1942, there was a clear predominance, in decreasing order, of Poles, Germans, and Austrians. More than 100 children under 17 were among the deportees.
On board Convoy 30 was Chaim Gottlieb, born August 15, 1898 from (stateless).[49]

August 15, 1929: Tisha B'Av, a day memorializing the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem, the revisionist Betar movement, despite Pinhas Rutenberg's plea on August 8 to the acting High Commissioner Harry Luke to stop such groups from participating,[64] rallied members from Tel Aviv to join them in the religious commemoration. Kisch, before leaving, had banned Jewish demonstrations in Jerusalem's Arab quarters. The Betar youth gave the ceremony a strong nationalist tinge by singing the Hatikvah, waving the flag of Israel, and chanting the slogan 'The Wall is Ours'.[65][66] [57]
August 15, 1941: Between May 15 and August 15, 1941:
Approximately 475,000 Jews were deported from Hungary in about 170 train loads of Hungarian Jews were sent to the death camp at Auschwitz. [58]
August 15, 1941: Heinrich Lohse, Reich commissioner for Eastern Territories of the Ostland (Eastern Europe) region, decrees that Jews must wear two yellow badges, one on the chest and one on the back; that Jews cannot own automobiles or radios; and that their presence in public places will be severely proscribed. [59]
August 15, 1941: A Jewish ghetto is established at Riga, Latvia. [60]
August 15, 1941: Last of the remaining 25,000 Jews in Kovno were removed to Viampole. Each is allotted three square feet of living space.[61]
August 15, 1941: Six hundred Jews are taken from Stawiski and shot in nearby woods.[62]
August 15, 1941: A massacre begins at Rokiskis that leaves 3,200 men, women and children, shot by the next evening. [63]

August 15, 1942: When they arrived in Auschwitz on June 24, the deportees received numbers 40681 to 41613 for 933 men, and 7961 to 8026 for the 66 women. On August 15, only 186 remained alive. In seven and a half weeks, the mortality rate was 80%.
As far as we know, only 23 survivors returned in 1945 from this convoy, five of them women.
In this Convoy 3, a young girl of 20, Annette Zelman, was deported. A French woman, she was guilty not only of being Jewish but also of having dared to be loved by a non-Jewish Frenchman. Document #XLII-27 of the CDJC, the police write-up on her, states:
“ Annette Zelman, Jew, born in Nancy on October 6, 1921. Arrested on May 23, 1942. Imprisoned by the Police Prefecture from May 23 to June 10; sent to the Tourelle camp from June 10 to June 21; transferred to Germany on June 22. Reason for arrest: intention to marry an Aryan, Jean Jausion. The two declared their written intention to give up the project to marry, according to Dr. Jausion’s desire, who had hoped that they would be dissuaded and the young Zelman girl would simply be returned to her family without any further trouble.” Continued but missing. [65]
August 15, 1942: Jews from Antwerp are deported to northern France for forced labor.[66]
August 15, 1942: The Germans open Jawiszowice, a slave-labor camp located near
Auschwitz. [67]
August 15, 1942: One thousand Belgian Jews, including 172 children, are deported to their deaths in the East. [68]
August 15-20, 1943: Nazi forces under Odilo Globocnik surround the Bialystok ghetto, and its 30,000 remaining Jews are ordered to appear for evacuation. A Jewish uprising breaks out in the ghetto.[69]
August 15, 1943: This convoy is numbered 64 because of a German mix-up in the files with the convoy of December 17, which is numbered 63. It (Convoy 64) carried 575 males and 422 females. The age composition of the youth was similar to Convoy 62, with 161 people under 18, of whom 106 were children under 12.
Also deported with this convoy was Raymond-Raoul Lambert, 49, President of the IGIF, his wife Simone, 39, and their four children. Their deportation at this time was due to the protests of Mr. Lambert to the Vichy Government (document XXVII-36, of August 15, 1943. [70]
Raymond-Raoul Lamberts Diary has been among the most important untranslated records of the experience of French Jews in the Holocaust. Lambert, a leader of the Union of French Jews (UGIF), was, in the words of the historian Michael Marrus, “arguably the most important Jewish official in contact with the Vichy government and the Germans.” Lambert’s Diary survived the war and was published in France in 1985. It reveals Lambert’s efforts to save the Jews in France, particularly the children.[71] The book is titled “Diary of a Witness, 1940-1943”, Ivan R. Dee, Publisher. ISBN: 1-56663-740-6/978-1-56663-740-4.
On November 30, Rothke had telexed to Eichmann that he was scheduling a convoy of 1,000 Jews for December 7 (XLIX-59). On December 3, Gunther, Eichmann’s assistant, telexed Berlin’s consent for this convoy (XLIX-33). On December 4, Hagen and Oberg contacted Himmler to advise him of the departure of the convoy (SLIX-33). The routine telex was signed by Rothke; the convoy left December 7 at 12:10 AM with 1,000 Jews from Paris/Bobigny, under the supervision of Lieutenant Wannenmacher (XLIX-32a).
There were at least four escapes en route to Auschwitz, among them that of Cesar Chamy, who was later recaptured and escaped a second time on August 17, 1944.
When they arrived in Auschwitz, 267 men were selected and received numbers 167442 through 167708. Seventy two women received numbers 70184 through 70255. The rest, 657, were gassed upon arrival.
On board Convoy 64 on December 7, 1943 was Fanny Gotlib born December 6, 1904 from St. Denis.[72]
August 15, 1944
The United States Seventh Army invades southern France[73]
August 15, 1972: William Roy Crawford died in Watertown, South Dakota on August 15, 1972; he was 83. William Roy married Lilly Viola STROUP.

[39] In 1893, George Pullman had a sculpture he had commissioned from Carl Rohl-Smith erected near his house. It portrayed the rescue of Margaret Helm, the stepdaughter of Chicago resident John Kinzie[3] and wife of Lt. Linai Thomas Helm, [4] by Potawatomi chief Black Partridge, who led her and some others to Lake Michigan and helped her escape by boat. [5] The monument was moved to the lobby of the Chicago Historical Society in 1931. In the 1970s, however, American Indian groups protested the display of the monument, and it was removed. In the 1990s, the statue was reinstalled near 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, close to its original site. It was later removed for conservation reasons by the Office of Public Art of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs.[6] There are some efforts to reinstall the monument, but it is meeting resistance from the Chicago American Indian Center.[5]

August 15, 1309: Knights of St. John, complete their conquest of Rhodes. Apparently the Knights treatment of the Jewish population was comparatively benign since many Sicilian conversos would move to the island because “they remembered the Knights’’ liberal policy towards the Jews or Rhodes.”[1]

August 1542: Norfolk was appointed Lieutenant-General north of Trent on January 29, 1541, and Captain-General in a campaign against the Scots in August 1542.[8]
August 15, 1534: Ignatius of Loyola and six classmates took initial vows that would lead to the creation of the Society of Jesus in September of 1540. In its early days, the Jesuits accepted Jewish converts and their descendants who were known as New Christians were admitted to the order. After the death of Loyola, the Jesuits adopted the Spanish attitudes and refused to accept New Chrisitians or their descendants as members. [9]
August 1548: Mary Stewart was sent to France in August 1548 to be raised with her husband-to-be, the dauphin, son of Henry II of France. Guise first planned to sail with her daughter from Dumbarton as far as Whithorn where she would make pilgrimage,[25] but returned instead for a council meeting in Edinburgh.[26]
At this time, the dedication of the Scottish book, The Complaynt of Scotland, recalled Mary of Guise's descent from Godfrey de Bouillon and claimed her courage and virtue exceeded those of the ancient heroines Tomyris, Semiramis and Penthesilea.[27]
August 1549: The cost of maintaining the Protector's massive armies and his permanent garrisons in Scotland also placed an unsustainable burden on the royal finances.[36] A French attack on Boulogne in August 1549 at last forced Somerset to begin a withdrawal from Scotland.[37][10][11]
August 15, 1561:Mary Queen of Scots sails from Calais, accompanied by three of her uncles, the Duke d'Aumale, the Grand Prior, and the Marquis d'Elbœuf, and many Scotch and French noblemen, among whom we find likewise Damville, rantôme, Castelnau de Mauvissière, and Chastelard. [12]
At the end of August 1561, Mary Queen of Scots nominates Lord James Stuart, the Earl of Huntly, and Maitland* (the younger of Lethington), her prime ministers. [13]
August 1563: Cardinal Lorraine proposes the Archduke Charles of Austria in marriage to Mary Queen of Scots; but she refuses to have him. [14]
August 1570: Norfolk continued to scheme for a marriage with Mary, and Elizabeth imprisoned him in the Tower of London between October 1569 and August 1570.[187][15]
August 1585: At that time the ambassador in England for the King of
France was the Honourable William de I'Aubespine, Baron
of Chateauneuf-sur-Cher, in Berry, councillor of his majesty ""s
council of state, who arrived there in August 1585, and
served the said lady the Scottish Queen in her business which
she had with the English Queen, as the other ambassadors
had done before him, and as he also had express commands
from the king his master. [16]
August 1585: The siege of Antwerp in the summer of 1585 by the Duke of Parma necessitated some reaction on the part of the English and the Dutch. The outcome was the Treaty of Nonsuch of August 1585, in which Elizabeth promised military support to the Dutch.[105] The treaty marked the beginning of the Anglo-Spanish War, which lasted until the Treaty of London in 1604.[17]
John Ballard was arrested on August 4, 1586, and presumably under torture he confessed and implicated Babington. Although Babington was able to receive the forged letter with the postscript, he was not able to reply with the names of the conspirators, as he was arrested while seeking a license to travel in order to see King Philip II of Spain, with the purpose of organizing a foreign expedition as well as ensuring his own safety.[20] The identities of the six conspirators were nevertheless discovered, and they were taken prisoner by August 15, 1586.
Mary's two secretaries, Claude Nau de la Boisseliere (d. 1605) and Gilbert Curle (d. 1609), were likewise taken into custody and interrogated.
The conspirators were sentenced to death for treason and conspiracy against the crown, and were sentenced to be hanged, drawn, and quartered. This first group included Babington, Ballard, Chidiock Tichborne, Sir Thomas Salisbury, Robert Barnewell, John Savage and Henry Donn. A further group of seven men, Edward Habington, Charles Tilney, Edward Jones, John Charnock, John Travers, Jerome Bellamy, and Robert Gage, were tried and convicted shortly afterward. Ballard and Babington were executed on September 20 along with the other men who had been tried with them. Such was the horror of their execution that Queen Elizabeth ordered the second group to be allowed to hang until dead before being disemboweled.[18]
August 1589: Henry's first marriage was not a happy one, and the couple remained childless. Henry and Margaret separated even before Henry succeeded to the throne in August 1589, and Margaret lived for many years in the Château d'Usson in the Auvergne. After Henry became king of France, it was of the utmost importance that he provide an heir to the crown in order to avoid the problem of a disputed succession. Henry himself favoured the idea of obtaining an annulment of his marriage to Margaret, and taking Gabrielle d'Estrées as his bride; after all, she had already borne him three children.[19]

Although he was a man of kindness, compassion and good humor, and was much loved by his people, Henry was the subject of attempts on his life by Pierre Barrière in August 1593[35] and Jean Châtel in December 1594.[36][20]
April 15, 1762: WILLIAM CRAWFORD TO THOMAS CLEYLAND

Jas. Keith.

Given under our hands and seals this fifth day of September (September 5) 1764.[21]
August 15, 1769: Birthdate of Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon had profound effect on the Jews of Europe. But if one asks “Was Napoleon good for the Jews” the best answer might be, “It depends.”[22]
The Battle of Long Island, August 15, 1776.
The first division of Hessians, some eight thousand strong, passed Sandy Hook on August 15, 1776, and landed at Staten Island amid salvoes of artillery and musketry. The division was under the command of Lieutenant-general Philip von Heister, a tough old soldier of the Seven Years’ War. It is related that when Landgrave Frederick II called him to command the Hessian expedititonary force, he did so in these terms: Heister, you must go along to America.””Very well, your Most Serene Highness, but I take the liberty of making a few requests.” “And what may they be?” “First, my debts must be paid, my wife and children must be taken care of until I come back, and if I should fall, my wife must have a pension.” When the Landgrave had smilingly assented, Heister cried out: “Now your Serene Highness shall see what this old head and these bones can do.”
The army collected on Staten Island under the command of Sir William Howe numbered, after the arrival of the Hessians, between twenty-five and thirty thousand soldiers. It was supported by a fleet under Sir William’s brother, Lord Howe. The opposing army of Washington was composed of some thirteen or fourteen thousand men, not more than six thousand of whom had any military experience, and whose officers were taken from civil life.
The Hessians were much struck with the appearance of wealth and plenty which they found on Staten Island. The colonists lived in comfortable houses surrounded by gardens and orchards. Their light red wagons drawn by two small horses excited the wonder of the Germans. A colonist on Staten Island lived as comfortably as a German country gentleman, and it seemed extraordinary to the Hessians that people should revolt against a government under which they enjoyed so many blessings. Many of the Amercans had fled from their homes on the approach of the Hessians, and those who remained were at first inclined to be surly when troops were quartered upon them; but when they saw that strict discipline was enforced, and that only regular requisitions were made, the fugitives returned, and relations of tolerance, if not of cordiality were soon extablished. The British government still hoped to reconcile the colonists to the rule of the mother country and strict orders had been given to prevent all excesses.[23]
About 18,000 Hessian troops first arrived in North America in 1776, with more coming in later. They landed at Staten Island in New York on August 15, 1776. Their first engagement was in the Battle of Long Island. The Hessians fought in almost every battle, although after 1777, the British used them mainly as garrison troops. An assortment of Hessians fought in the battles and campaigns in the southern states during 1778–80 (including Guilford Courthouse), and two regiments fought at the Siege of Yorktown in 1781.
The British use of Hessian troops rankled American sentiment, and pushed some Loyalists to favor the revolution. The British use of non-English speaking foreign troops to put down the rebellion was seen as insulting, as it treated British subjects no differently than non-British subjects. Pro-British Tories believed that the British colonists deserved more than mercenary foes.
August 15, 1777: The fleet came to anchor at Cape Henry. .[24]
The first court of the Yohogania county was held at Fort Dunmore (Pitt) December 23, 1776,[25] and that the courts continued to be held there until August 15, 1777. They were then held at the house of Andrew Heath.” This was on the west side of the Monongahela, a short distance above, and in sight of the present town of Elizabeth. The statement has frequently been made that the Yohogania court was at one time held at Redstone Old Fort, but this is a mistake, doubtless growing our of the fact that a board of Viginia commissioners sat at that place in the winter of 1779-80 for the purpose of deciding on land claims and issuing certificates to settlers.
Finally, when the long controverst between the two States was settled by the assignment of the disputed territory to Pennsylvania, the counties of Monongalia and Ohio, though greatly reduced in area, still retained teir names as counties of Virginia (as they are of West Virginia at the present time); but Yohogania, whose limits were wholly within the territory yielded to Pennsylvania, cesed to exist, and was thenceforward mentioned as Viginia’s “lost county.” [26]
August 15, 1792: Major John MacKinnon b 1752 Erray House Mishnish Estate Mull d 1841 buried Cill Chriosod. Married Dame Margaret Burgess Smithies Affleck. Marriage date August 15 1792 at Marylebone Church officiated by Rev John Harley. [27]
August 15, 1803(date approximate) Reverend Robert Armstrong, a traveler, suggests the name "Xenia" (Greek for "hospitality") as the name for the county seat of Greene County OH. Out of consideration for Owen Davis, one of the earliest settlers in the county and the first miller in the area, his wife Laticia cast the deciding vote. . [28]
August 15, 1812: Susan Simmons Winans was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife, who passed away August 7, 1864.

Metea
On the morning of August 15, 1812, the garrison at Fort Dearborn, the site of Chicago, was ready to leave. Orders had been received from General William Hull[30] to make a forced march to Detroit. Scouts had reported drums thumping in the villages and some tribes were painted for war.
Shortly after sunup Captain Nathan Heald, the post commander, led his men out of the tiny stockade. The ragged column of fifty regulars, flanking the women and children of the few families who had settled near the stockade, started out across the prairie.
From his hiding place, Metea gave the signal. His painted, howling warriers , outnumbering the troops, fell on the train and butchered most of the regulars and the settlers.[31]
August 15, 1812
Susans Simmons Winans[32] was born February 18, 1812. When she was six months old, and with her parents at Ft. Dearborn[33] at the massacre there; August 15, 1812. Her father was killed, and her mother and she were taken prisoners by the Indians, and held six months or more; a little brother 3 years old was also killed. In the following Spring, mother, with Susan made her way to friends in Miami Co., Ohio. Susan was the mother of Ester Winans, William Harrison Goodlove’s first wife.
The massacre followed the evacuation of the fort as ordered by the U.S. General William Hull. This event is also sometimes known as the Battle of Fort Dearborn. Fort Dearborn’s commander Captain Nathan Heald ordered all whiskey and gunpowder to be destroyed so it would no be seized by the local Indian tribes allied with the British, although he had agree to these terms a few hours earlier. He then prepared to abandon his post. Heald remained at Fort Dearborn until support arrived from Fort Wayne, Indiana, led by his wife’s uncle, Captain Wells. A column of 148 soldiers, women children then left Fort Dearborn intending to march to Fort Wayne. However, about one and a half miles (2 km) south of Fort Dearborn, at about what is now 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, a band of Potawatomi warriors ambushed the garrison, killing more than fifty and capturing the remainder as prisoners to sell to the British as slaves. The British purchased the captives and released them immediately afterwards.
Fort Dearborn was burned to the ground, and the region remained empty of U.S. citizens until after the war had ended.
Survivors' accounts differed on the role of the Miami warriors. Some said they fought for the Americans, while others said they did not fight at all. Regardless, William Henry Harrison claimed the Miami fought against the Americans, and used the Fort Dearborn massacre as a pretext to attack the Miami villages. Miami chief Pacanne and his nephew, Jean Baptiste Richardville, accordingly ended their neutrality in the War of 1812 and allied with the British. [34]

Our subject Robert Craig was married to Miss Sarah Godlove in 1841, in Perry County, Ohio; she was the daughter of Adam and Susannah (Tattman) Godlove), the former was born in Virginia, and his wife in Maryland. They were married and lived in Ohio, where they were early settlers of Perry County. They reared the following children: Sarah, Josiah, Bartholomew, Lizzie, Samuel, Catherine, Mary, Maggie and Benjamin, all of whom were born in Ohio. John was born in Iowa after the family came to this State in 1843.
Samuel was a soldier in the 10th Iowa, and enlisted at the beginning of the war. He fell at the battle Winchester, pierced by seventeen balls. The family moved to Iowa with teams, and settled on a small farm west of Yatton. There was only one log house there at that date, and it has long since been torn down.[44]
August 15, 1862: Following their defeat at the Battle of Baton Rouge on August 5, 1862, Confederate soldiers marched to Port Hudson and occupied the area on August 15, 1862. They constructed a series of river batteries along the bluffs and, in the monthes that followed, erected a 4 ½ mile line of earthworks to protect the land approach to the river batteries. [45]
August 15, 1862: After the battle of Independance, Quantrill and his men separated from the main force of the Confederate army and moved to a farm a few miles from the town of LoneJack. There, on August 15, 1862 Colonel Gideon Thompson officially swore Quantrill’s men into the Confederate Army. Sim Whitsett gave his date of
enlistment as August 12, 1862 in Company E of Shelby’s 2nd Missouri Cavalry
commanded by Upton Hayes. However, the official date was August 15, the day
of this swearing in ceremony rather than the day after the Battle of
Independence. Had he given a date a few days before the battle, I would say
that he was one of Upton Hayes’ regular recruits before he became a guerrilla.
Because he gave a date of enlistment after the Battle of Independence, I am
certain that he joined Quantrill rather than the regular Confederate Army in
August 1862.
After the War, many of Quantrill’s Raiders gave their dates of enlistment
as between August 11 and 15. Most claimed to be members of a Missouri
Cavalry unit under General Jo Shelby. There are no surviving records to
substantiate most of these claims. This is probably because General Shelby
destroyed most of his records at the end of the war to prevent retribution by
Union authorities against the Missouri men who rode with him. It is very likely
that he was especially sensitive to the records of former guerrillas. A similar
claim of Confederate service by Cole Younger is controversial with some
historians who insist, because of the lack of records, that he was never a
Confederate soldier. We must be careful about giving too much weight to the
latter argument. I personally believe that these men were officially sworn in to
the Confederate army and probably were given a designation as a unit of
cavalry. From August 1862 until the War’s end, the Confederate Army was
technically responsible for the actions of Quantrill and his men. Confederate
soldiers or not, the regular Confederate military soon found that it had little or
no control over Quantrill and his band.
As was the custom of the Confederate Army during the early part of the
Civil War, Quantrill’s men elected their officers soon after their swearing in
ceremony. They elected William Quantrill as Captain, William Hallar as First
Lieutenant (Hallar soon left the band), George Todd as Second Lieutenant and
William Gregg as Third Lieutenant.[46]

August 15, 1929: Tisha B'Av, a day memorializing the destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem, the revisionist Betar movement, despite Pinhas Rutenberg's plea on August 8 to the acting High Commissioner Harry Luke to stop such groups from participating,[64] rallied members from Tel Aviv to join them in the religious commemoration. Kisch, before leaving, had banned Jewish demonstrations in Jerusalem's Arab quarters. The Betar youth gave the ceremony a strong nationalist tinge by singing the Hatikvah, waving the flag of Israel, and chanting the slogan 'The Wall is Ours'.[65][66] [57]
August 15, 1941: Between May 15 and August 15, 1941:

August 15, 1942: When they arrived in Auschwitz on June 24, the deportees received numbers 40681 to 41613 for 933 men, and 7961 to 8026 for the 66 women. On August 15, only 186 remained alive. In seven and a half weeks, the mortality rate was 80%.
As far as we know, only 23 survivors returned in 1945 from this convoy, five of them women.
In this Convoy 3, a young girl of 20, Annette Zelman, was deported. A French woman, she was guilty not only of being Jewish but also of having dared to be loved by a non-Jewish Frenchman. Document #XLII-27 of the CDJC, the police write-up on her, states:
“ Annette Zelman, Jew, born in Nancy on October 6, 1921. Arrested on May 23, 1942. Imprisoned by the Police Prefecture from May 23 to June 10; sent to the Tourelle camp from June 10 to June 21; transferred to Germany on June 22. Reason for arrest: intention to marry an Aryan, Jean Jausion. The two declared their written intention to give up the project to marry, according to Dr. Jausion’s desire, who had hoped that they would be dissuaded and the young Zelman girl would simply be returned to her family without any further trouble.” Continued but missing. [65]
August 15, 1942: Jews from Antwerp are deported to northern France for forced labor.[66]
August 15, 1942: The Germans open Jawiszowice, a slave-labor camp located near
Auschwitz. [67]
August 15, 1942: One thousand Belgian Jews, including 172 children, are deported to their deaths in the East. [68]
August 15-20, 1943: Nazi forces under Odilo Globocnik surround the Bialystok ghetto, and its 30,000 remaining Jews are ordered to appear for evacuation. A Jewish uprising breaks out in the ghetto.[69]
August 15, 1943: This convoy is numbered 64 because of a German mix-up in the files with the convoy of December 17, which is numbered 63. It (Convoy 64) carried 575 males and 422 females. The age composition of the youth was similar to Convoy 62, with 161 people under 18, of whom 106 were children under 12.
Also deported with this convoy was Raymond-Raoul Lambert, 49, President of the IGIF, his wife Simone, 39, and their four children. Their deportation at this time was due to the protests of Mr. Lambert to the Vichy Government (document XXVII-36, of August 15, 1943. [70]
Raymond-Raoul Lamberts Diary has been among the most important untranslated records of the experience of French Jews in the Holocaust. Lambert, a leader of the Union of French Jews (UGIF), was, in the words of the historian Michael Marrus, “arguably the most important Jewish official in contact with the Vichy government and the Germans.” Lambert’s Diary survived the war and was published in France in 1985. It reveals Lambert’s efforts to save the Jews in France, particularly the children.[71] The book is titled “Diary of a Witness, 1940-1943”, Ivan R. Dee, Publisher. ISBN: 1-56663-740-6/978-1-56663-740-4.
On November 30, Rothke had telexed to Eichmann that he was scheduling a convoy of 1,000 Jews for December 7 (XLIX-59). On December 3, Gunther, Eichmann’s assistant, telexed Berlin’s consent for this convoy (XLIX-33). On December 4, Hagen and Oberg contacted Himmler to advise him of the departure of the convoy (SLIX-33). The routine telex was signed by Rothke; the convoy left December 7 at 12:10 AM with 1,000 Jews from Paris/Bobigny, under the supervision of Lieutenant Wannenmacher (XLIX-32a).
There were at least four escapes en route to Auschwitz, among them that of Cesar Chamy, who was later recaptured and escaped a second time on August 17, 1944.
When they arrived in Auschwitz, 267 men were selected and received numbers 167442 through 167708. Seventy two women received numbers 70184 through 70255. The rest, 657, were gassed upon arrival.
On board Convoy 64 on December 7, 1943 was Fanny Gotlib born December 6, 1904 from St. Denis.[72]

[39] In 1893, George Pullman had a sculpture he had commissioned from Carl Rohl-Smith erected near his house. It portrayed the rescue of Margaret Helm, the stepdaughter of Chicago resident John Kinzie[3] and wife of Lt. Linai Thomas Helm, [4] by Potawatomi chief Black Partridge, who led her and some others to Lake Michigan and helped her escape by boat. [5] The monument was moved to the lobby of the Chicago Historical Society in 1931. In the 1970s, however, American Indian groups protested the display of the monument, and it was removed. In the 1990s, the statue was reinstalled near 18th Street and Prairie Avenue, close to its original site. It was later removed for conservation reasons by the Office of Public Art of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs.[6] There are some efforts to reinstall the monument, but it is meeting resistance from the Chicago American Indian Center.[5]
