December 22, 69: Emperor Vitellius is captured and murdered by the Gemonian stairs in Rome. Vitellius was the third of The Four Emperors. He would be succeeded by Vespasian, the man who put down the rebellion in Judea that began 2,000 years of exile.[1]

Pre 70: There was a concentration priest at Gophna that may have hailed back to pre-70 days. Bethpage to the east of the city, seem to have been populated entirely by priests.[2]



December 22, 244: Birthdate of Diocletian, the Roman Emperor who ordered all of his subjects to accept his divinity and offer sacrifices to him. He exempted the Jews from this decree. According to Meir Holder, “his regime was comparatively favorable to the Jewish people.[3]



247 JUDAH BEN EZEKIEL (Babylon)

Inaugurated the academy at Pumbedita where he focused study on practical daily laws. Two years prior to his death in 299, he headed both Babylonian academies (Sura and Pumbedita). [4]

247 SAMUEL (Babylon)

Samuel became the acknowledged leader of the Jewish community in Babylon. A friend and colleague of Rav, he lived and taught in Nahardea where he was head of the academy. He was also an astronomer who composed a fixed calendar. He did not publish it, however, out of respect for the Patriarchate in Eretz Israel. In monetary and civil matters his rulings were accepted as binding. He also instructed Jews to adopt the laws of whichever land they dwelt in (Dina d'malchuta Dina), thus preparing them for survival in foreign environments. He served for only seven years. [5]

250 Carthage, Jews expelled.[6]

• 100_1403[7]

• Found in the hill sanctuary of Bab Kalabsha, (a small valley Chapel at Taifa. The Temple is located on the west bank of the Nile River, in Nubia. “a long inscription carved by the Roman Governor Aurelius Besarion in 250 AD forbid pigs in the temple.) this offering table is decorated with amphora for wine, three rosettes, two notched fronds of the type often called the “Isis flower,” and a mat where offerings …were placed…[8]



• 250 CE : Writings of the Christian poet Commodianus (fl. 250 CE), who retells the story of how God “concealed” the ten tribes, keeping them “enclosed [behind] a river across Persia” (trans Persida flumine clause). Commodianus is but one early instace of Christian apocalyptic writings relating to Esdras, which attached the ten tribes to visions of the end of the world. In the emergence of Jewish rabbinic tradition and its ongoing struggle with questions of exile and return in the wake of the temple’s destruiction, the question of the ten lost tribes was a complication. [9]

250: Jews expelled from Carthage.[10]

Roman Fresco
Roman FrescoCredit: Roma Sotterranea, 1869: A fresco from the Crypts of Lucina depicts Saint Cornelius, a man who was elected pope in A.D. 251, and Cyprian who was a bishop of Carthage during the same period.[11]


251-270: Roman Empire,

Plague of Cyprian

[3][12]


257: Severe persecutions of Christians occurred around 257 under Valerian.[13]

259 NEHARDEA (Babylon)

The Jewish community and academy were destroyed by Odenathus of Palmyra while fighting for Rome against the Persians. The academy then moved to Pumbedita. These two foundations ruled Jewish life for approximately 800 years. [14]

268: Battle of Lake Benacus between the Alamanni and Claudius II . Battle of Naissus between the Goths and Gallienus . [15]

AD 270 – 275 Aurelian, emperor of Rome - establishes sun worship as the state religion

Aurelian strengthened the position of the Sun god, Sol or Oriens, and the main divinity of the Roman pantheon. His intention was to give to all the peoples of the Empire, civilian or soldiers, easterners or westerners, a single god they could believe in without betraying their own gods. The center of the cult was a new temple, built in 271 in Campus Agrippae in Rome, with great decorations financed by the spoils of the Palmyrene Empire.[11] [16][17]

She was the wife of George Plantagenet, 1st Duke of Clarence. She was also the elder sister of Anne Neville, who was Princess of Wales, by her first marriage and Queen consort of England by her second.[19]

December 22, 1542: James Hamilton, Earl of Arran, is declared, by act of the Scottish parliament, nearest heir to the crown,f Regent of the kingdom, and tutor to Mary Queen of Scots, (9th cousin 13x removed). : nevertheless, the Queen-dowager and Cardinal Beaton, Archbishop of St. Andrews, struggled for a long time against his authority. [20]



1543

The Spanish version of the Bible by Francisco de Enzinas (1543) was based on Erasmus.[21]



1543: Martin Luther tried unsuccessfully to get the elector to expel (the Jews) from Brandenburg in 1543.[22]

1543:

Image:1543 On the Jews and Their Lies by Martin Luther.jpg

Bookcover of ‘On the Jews and Their Lies.’

Published in 1543 by Martin Luther.[23]

In his pamphlet ‘On the Jews and Their Lies’ Martin Luther advocates an eight-point plan to get rid of the Jews as a distinct group either by religious conversion or by expulsion:

“…set fire to their synagogues or schools [24]

“…their houses also be razed and destroyed…”

“…their prayer books and Talmudic writings…be taken from them…,”

“…their rabbis be forbidden to teach henceforth on pain of loss of life and limb…”

“..safe-conduct on the highways be abolished completely for the Jews…”[25]

“…usury be prohibited to them, and that all cash and treasure of silver and gold be taken from them…” and “Such money should now be used in …the following [way]… Whenever a Jew is sincerely converted, he should be handed [certain amount]…”

“…young, strong Jews and Jewesses [should]… earn their bread in the sweat of their brow…”

“If we wish to wash our hands of the Jews’ blasphemy and not share in their guilt, we have to part company with them. They must be driven from our country” and “we must drive them out like mad dogs.” [26]

1543:** ‘The Necessary Doctrine and Erudition for Any Christian Man’ (or The Kings Book) is published. It is a refinement of an ‘Institution of a Christian Man but also defended The 6 Articles and is attributed to Henry VIII.** (7th cousin 15x removed.) The 1542 ’Laws in Wales Act’ is passed by parliament. Wales is now annexed to England and is no longer a personal fiefdom. [27]

December 22, 1603: Mehmed III Sultan of the Ottoman Empire passed away. Born in 1566, Mehmed III continued the Turkish practice of taking advantage of the skills of his Jewish subjects. He appointed a Jew named Gabriel Buonaventura as ambassador to Spain which may seem counter-intuitive considering that Spain had expelled her Jews a century earlier. Two Jewish doctors named Benveniste and Korina were in palace service. In 1597 a Morrano named Alvaro Mendez who had taken the Turkish appellation Solomon Abenyaes prepared a treaty of alliance with England aimed at King Philip of Spain.

December 22, 1603: Ahmed I becomes Sultan of the Ottoman Empire following the death of Mehmed III. During his reign, Sultan Ahmed I caught small pox, a highly fatal disease. When his palace physicians could not help him, Ahmed sought help from Buha Eskenazi, the widow of Solomon Eskenazi who had been one of his doctors. The widow Eskenazi was able to affect a cure and she remained in the Sultan’s service.[28]

Sunday December 22, 1755

Braddock, with several other officers, sail from Ireland for America. The troops for Braddock's expedition will follow in January. [31]



1755: Braddock's Road was not opened to immigrants until 1755.[32]



In 1755 Lawrence Harrison (6th great grandfather) sold Land in Orange Co. and bought 346 acre near Winchester.[33]

1755



[34]



Philadelphia, intersected by 40th degree parallel of latitude
Philadelphia as mapped in 1755 - intersected by 40th degree parallel of latitude, while New Castle is far to the south (Alexandria is just south of 39th parallel)
Source: Library of Congress, A map of the British and French dominions in North America, with the roads, distances, limits, and extent of the settlements

Some Pennsylvania officials even claimed that the "beginning" of the 40th degree of latitude was the 39th parallel, and all the land north of the 39th degree of latitude was included in Penn's grant.3 A degree of latitude is roughly 69 miles (on land), so a lot of territory was at stake. Until Penn's claimed eastern and southern boundaries of the colony were defined, it was impossible to establish the southwestern corner, 5 degrees of longitude to the west of the southeastern corner.[35]

1755 William Crawford (6th great grandfather) received the commission of ensign, from

General Robert Dinwiddie, Governor of the Colony of

Virginia. William Crawford joined Braddock’s army with his

company of riflemen..[36]

1755 - Birth of Ruth McKinnon (half 4th great grand aunt) to Daniel and Ruth, in Anne Arundel.[37]

1755: Sarah Vance married John Vail in 1755, she is the Daughter of Samuel Vance b. 1691, and Sarah "Blackburn" Vance b. 1709. Sarah "Vance" Vail was born in 1740. [38]

1755: Jane Vance was born 1755, the Daughter of Alexander Vance Sr. born 1725, and Margaret "Bigham" Vance. She later married David Vance born 1755, (They were 1st Cousins). David Vance was the Son of John Vance born 1730, and Margaret "White" Vance.[39]

1755: David Vance (My 2nd Cousin 6 Times Removed) was born 1755, the Son of John Vance (My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed) born 1730, and Margaret "White" Vance ( My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed, By Marriage). He later married Jane Vance ( My 2nd Cousin 6 Times Removed) born 1755, (They were 1st Cousins). Jane Vance (My 2nd Cousin 6 Times Removed) was the Daughter of Alexander Vance Sr. (My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed) born 1725, and Margaret "Bigham" Vance (My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed, By Marriage).

1755: Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was born about 19-Jul-1755 Possibly in N.C. Or the Shenandoah Valley of Va. There has been no birth record of any kind found for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather). There is no proof that Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was his birth name, this is however the name he used in all records that have been found on him, so his ancestors use this name. It is also possible that Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was an Indian, most likely Cherokee if he was. There is no documented proof as to who Abner Vance's (My 4th Great Grandfather) parents were. There are several possibilities as to the identity of his parents. One set of possibly parents for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) is Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather) born 1715, and Theodosia "Hewlings" Vance (MY 5th Great Grandmother) born 1721. If the father of Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather) that brings us to another mystery! Who was Ephraim "Vause" Vance's (My 5th Great Grandfather) parents? There is no known records of who Ephraim "Vause" Vance's (My 5th Great Grandfather) parents were. There is a lot of information about Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather) and what he did during his life, but none to document where he came from. Theodosia Hewlings (My 5th Great Grandmother) born 1721 however is a different story. Theododia Hewlings's (My 5th Great Grandmother) parents have been documented, as well as her marriage to Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather). Another possible set of parents for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) is Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance. Personally I do not think Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance were Abner Vance's (My 4th Great Grandfather) parents, this does not mean they weren't, just that I don't think they were. My belief is that Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance were Abner Vance's (My 4th Great Grandfather) Uncle and Aunt. Another pocssible Father for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) is Matthew Vance. I believe that Matthew Vance was the brother of Samuel Vance that married Sarah Colville, and if Matthew Vance is the Father of Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather), then my throry that Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance are his Uncle and Aunt would be correct, however no proof of this has been found. Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) and Matthew Vance both swore the oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth of Virginia at the same time in May 1777, so they at least knew each other, and were most likely related.

1755

Samuel Johnson’s dictionary of 1755 contained about 15,000 words. The latest unabridged dictionaries record more than 400,000. (2003)[40]

1755

John Wesley (1703-1791), the founder of Methodism, introduced his revision of the KJV New Testament in 1755 under the title, “Explanatory Notes Upon the New Testament. [41]

1755 – Treaty with South Carolina; the Cherokee ceded the land between the Wateree and Santee rivers.[42]


Mitchell map of southwestern Pennsylvania

Source: Library of Congress, John Mitchell, A map of the British and French dominions
in North America, with the roads, distances, limits, and extent of the settlements.

1755-1761: John Mitchell produced a separate map between 1755-61. It suggested the Forks of the Ohio, including the site of modern-day Pittsburgh that the French called "Fort duQuesne," was located in Pennsylvania:[43]

1755-1763: The Delaware, Mingo, and Shawnee sided with the French during the French and Indian War (1755-1763). The Iroquois Confederacy officially remained neutral, but many in the Iroquois Confederacy allied with the French.[44]

December 22, 1759: Elizabeth Cale, born 1759, died 1821. Was married, 1782, to George Nicholas Spaid, born December 22, 1759, died June 15, 1833. [45]

December 22, 1768: The Rev. Daniel McKinnon(5th great grandfather) and the Rev. Jeremiah Berry were licensed to preach, by the Bishop of London, on December 22, 1768. Both of these young men were sent to the colonies to minister to the Plantations of Maryland.[46]

The Reverend Daniel McKinnon was licensed to preach by the Bishop of London in 1768. He is known to have acted as a missionary as early as 1750-1753. A letter was sent by the compiler to the present Lord Bishop of London, asking for an explanation of this fact. His reply stated that whereas it was not customary to send young men to America prior to being ordained, there has been exceptions. Without quoting from the records in the case of Daniel McKinnon, "which are difficult to locate at this date," there was an example given on the well-known Rev. Charles Inglis, D.D., who, in 1787, became the English Colonial Bishop. He was in America as a young man, acted as a lay catechist and teacher. In 1758, he returned to England and received ordination.



It appears, therefore, that Daniel McKinnon, after spending a number of years disseminating the gospel in America, returned to England to complete his studies and preparation for ordination, and was ordained December 22, 1768, returning to America in 1769, as will appear.



Under the subject of "All Saints' Parish, Frederick County, established in 1742, it is stated that the Reverend Bacon was the minister in charge of this church up to the time of his death, May 27, 1768. He was succeeded by the Rev. Bennett Allen.





1769: Early in 1769, the Rev. Jeremiah Berry, a native of Maryland, was in charge as curate of Monocacy Chapel and the Rev. Daniel McKennon, also as curate, was ministering to the Frederick congregation. [47]



1769:Daniel returned to Maryland in 1769 and is listed as the Minister at All Saints Parish in Frederick County, Maryland.[48]/[49]



1769:King James Version (Oxford Standard edition corrected by Dr. Benjamin Blayney).[50]



At the concession stand at the Washington Home at Mt. Vernon I purchased a copy of “George Washington’s Diaries,” an abridgment by Dorothy Turohig. She gives an explanation behind the messages and events which Washington describes (Ref36). Of particular interest this writer points out that “This land which William and Valentine Crawford had surveyed for the Washingtons in 1769 is in the vicinity of Perryopolis, PA, in what is now Fayette County, PA.” (Ref 33.9) I believe this is the parcels she is referring to. [51]



1769

In 1754, as an incentive to recruit men for the Virginia Regiment — which eventually bled so at Fort Necessity — Governor Dinwiddie had promised 200,000 acres of frontier land as a bounty. Fifteen years later, in 1769, Washington reminded Lord Botetourt, the latest of Dinwiddie’s successors, of that promise and obtained a grant of lands down the Ohio River, wherever a suitable tract might be found. [52]

This force of colonials was sent from Philadelphia by General Israel Putnam as a deterrent to further encroachment on the river crossings opposite the colonial capitol at Philadelphia. The colonials numbered about 900 local militia and a few regulars, while von Donop commanded over 2,000 veterans. In response to this attack, von Donop moved his entire force south, pushing the colonials through Mount Holly at the Battle of Iron Works Hill and onto the opposite side of the Rancocas Creek. [56]

George Walker Crawford (December 22, 1798 – July 27, 1872) was a licensed attorney turned politician from Columbia County, Georgia. Crawford was appointed attorney general for the state in 1827 by Governor John Forsyth, serving in that capacity until 1831. Crawford also served five years in the General Assembly's lower house as a representative of Richmond County on a platform of state's rights.

George Crawford served in the U.S. House of Representatives, filling the seat vacated by Richard W. Habersham who died while in office. Crawford was elected Georgia's 38th governor—serving two terms from 1843–47. He became the only Whig Party candidate in state history to occupy the Governor's Mansion. Crawford also served as United States Secretary of War from 1849–50.[1][64]

George Walker Crawford was born December 22, 1798 in Columbia County, Georgia. He was the fourth son of Peter and Mary Ann Crawford. His father was a veteran of the American Revolutionary War from Virginia who had settled in Georgia to claim a land share, known as a bounty grant which the state of Georgia had set aside for "those who had fought for independence".[3][65]

1799, 1801, 1811 three children of “Franz (also Franziskus) and Maria Gottlob” baptized at Henron Church, Intermont, Hampshire County. [66]





1799: It should be clearly understood, that while Washington did not receive land for his pay in the military service, he did employ his own party of surveyors to survey land for him. At his death, he was the owner of more than 70,000 acres of land, as per will in 1799. The huge surveys which William Crawford (6th great grandfather) arranged for Washington in the Kanawh area, were; The Poca tract, Washington Bottom at Parkersburg, W. VaA., the Ravenswood tract, Round Bottom and (the Millwood tract, now in present Jackson County, W. VA.) The latter containing more than 4,000 acres. There were other tracts surveyed for Washington as well as for the officers and soldiers of the King’s Grant.

On the original surveys at Morgantown, W. VA., are listings of other surveyors, who were working with William Crawford in the Kanawha district. Those whose names are well known in surveying history; Robert Rutherford, Richard Graham, Alexander Henderson and Robert Griffith, etc…[67]

1803 - December 22 - Benjamin Harrison, Sr. (5th great granduncle) cancelled power of attorney given Richard J. Waters*- and revoked his Will: To all those who will see these presents, greetings. Let it be known that I, Benjamin Harrison, Senior, domiciled in the Province of Louisiana in the District of New Madrid., disavow and annul by these presents a general power (of attorney) given by me to Richard J. Waters, also domiciled in the aforesaid District, as well as a Will which is thereto annexed., hereby declaring of no value all other acts or writings, etc. which he may have made in the meantime in virtue of the aforesaid Power, or in case of my death, I declare also, my last wishes, or the Will which is attached to the said power, to be nul and without effect or value, and as a thing that never happened. In virtue of which I have affixed my seal and signed by hand this 22nd day of December, 1803.

Before me. Benj. Harrison, Sr.

Juan Lavallee[68]

*Richard Jones Waters settled at New Madrid about 1790. He was a doctor, trader, mill owner, land speculator. (Douglass, P. 97)\

December 22, 1823: Resolutions of Alabama legislature proposing Andrew Jackson (2nd cousin 8x removed) for president were submitted to Governor Israel Pickens, who disapproved them on December 22. [69]

December 22, 1828: The Tennessee legislature again nominated Jackson for President. Jackson attracted Vice President John C. Calhoun, Martin Van Buren, and Thomas Ritchie into his camp (the latter two previous supporters of George W. Crawford (8th cousin 6x removed)). Martin Van Buren (1st great grandnephew of the wife of the 4th great granduncle of the 1st cousin 5x removed, of the wife of the first great granduncle, of the husband of the half grandniece of the wife of the 4th cousin 9x removed), with help from his friends in Philadelphia and Richmond, revived the old Republican Party, gave it a new name as the Democratic Party, "restored party rivalries", and forged a national organization of durability.[18] The Jackson coalition handily defeated John Adams (8th cousin 3x removed of the wife of the 1st cousin 10x remove) in 1828.

During the election, Jackson's opponents referred to him as a "jackass." Jackson liked the name and used the jackass as a symbol for a while, but it died out. However, it later became the symbol for the Democratic Party when cartoonist Thomas Nast popularized it.[19]

The campaign was very much a personal one. Although neither candidate personally campaigned, their political followers organized many campaign events. Both candidates were rhetorically attacked in the press, which reached a low point when the press accused Jackson's wife Rachel of bigamy. Though the accusation was true, as were most personal attacks leveled against him during the campaign, it was based on events that occurred many years prior (1791 to 1794). Jackson said he would forgive those who insulted him, but he would never forgive the ones who attacked his wife. Rachel died suddenly on December 22, 1828, prior to his inauguration, and was buried on Christmas Eve.[70]

* December 22, 1828: Appointed as minister plenipotentiary to Gran Colombia, William Henry Harrison 6th cousin 7x removed) resigned from Congress and served in his new post until March 8, 1829.[21] He arrived in Bogotá on December 22, 1828. He found the condition of Colombia saddening. Harrison reported to the Secretary of State that the country was on the edge of anarchy and he thought Simón Bolívar was about to become a military dictator. While minister in Colombia, Harrison wrote a rebuke to Bolívar, stating "... the strongest of all governments is that which is most free." He called on Bolívar to encourage the development of a democracy. In response, Bolívar wrote, "The United States ... seem destined by Providence to plague December 22, 1835 – Some four hundred persons, exclusively from the Upper and Lower Towns areas with none from the Hill and Valley Towns in the west of North Carolina, converge on New Echota for Treaty negotiations with U.S. Commissioner Schermerhorn.[71]
