December 28, 1235: A ritual murder massacre at Fulda resulted in the death of 32 Jews. The Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire established an investigation at Hagenau (located in modern Alsac) to confirm or disprove the charges. After hearing various experts he declared that since Jews are prohibited from eating animal blood, they would surely be banned from using human blood. He forbade anyone from accusing Jews of this charge.[1] The Jews of Fulda, Germany were accused of ritual murder. Jewish converts to Christianity were questioned about Jewish ritual practice. Letters inviting prominent individuals to the conference still survive. At the conference, the converts stated unequivocally that Jews do not harm Christian children or require blood for any rituals.[2]
•
1236: Pope Gregory IX in 1236 ordered the confiscation of Hebrew books.[3] Crusaders attack Jewish communities of Anjou and Poitou and attempt to baptize all the Jews. Those who resisted (Est. 3,000) were slaughtered.[4] The Emperor published findings of investigation into blood libel.[5] Alexander Nevski named Grand Duke of Novgorod, Arabs lose Cordoba to Castile, death of Bavarian minnesinger Neidhardt von Reuenthal, Pope Gregory IX excommunicates Frederick II, Theodoric of Luca pioneers anesthesias, Alexander Nevski becomes Prince of Novgorod to 1263, Henry marries Eleanor of Provence. [6]
December 28, 1503: Little is known about Thomas Cromwell's early life. It is believed he was born at the top of Putney Hill, on the edge of Putney Heath. In 1878, his birthplace was still of note: "The site of Cromwell's birthplace is still pointed out by tradition, and is in some measure confirmed by the survey of Wimbledon Manor, quoted above, for it describes on that spot 'an ancient cottage called the smith's shop, lying west of the highway from Richmond to Wandsworth, being the sign of the Anchor.' The plot of ground here referred to is now covered by the Green Man public house."[2] Putney Heath was a noted haunt of highwaymen, and only a few brave souls ventured across it at night.
Cromwell made a declaration to Archbishop of Canterbury Thomas Cranmer that he had been a "ruffian...in his young days".[1] As a youth, he left his family in Putney and crossed the Channel to the continent. Accounts of his activities in France, Italy, and the Low Countries are sketchy and contradictory. It is alleged that he first became a mercenary and marched with the French army to Italy, where he fought in the battle of Garigliano on December 28, 1503. While in Italy, he entered the household of the Florentine merchant banker Francesco Frescobaldi.[7]
December 28, 1703: Mustafa II, Ottoman Sultan passed away. During his reign, the Turks conquered Belgrade and the Jews returned to the city. Mustafa continue the practice of his predecessors and employed Jews a court physicians including Doctor Tobias Cohen and Doctor Israel Koenigland.[8]
1. ANDREW1 HARRISON, was in the Rappahannock Valley as early as 1704; resided in St. Mary’s Parish, Essex County, Virginia, where he died in 1718. His wife was Eleanor (surname unknown) [9]
1704
“He married a daughter of Colonel Lawrence Smith, of Gloucester County. A deed on record in Essex, dated 1704, mentions that Lawrence Smith gave to his son-in-law, John Battaile, a power of Attorney to sell certain lands in Essex, February, 1701-8, recorded in a book chiefly deeds, in Essex, 1701-1708.[10]
1704
In 1704, Andrew1 Harrison, Richard Long, and Samuel Elliot (possibly the father or brother of Eleanor?) received a land grant of 813 acres in the Golden Vale for the purpose of bringing headrights from England. Nothing is known specifically as to their success in this venture, but subsequently they received patents for nearly 2,000 acres.[11] In 1704 he was granted land southwest of Golden Vale on the Mattaponi River in King and Queen Co. VA.[12]
1704
In the 1704 Quit Rent Roll for Essex he (Andrew1 Harrison, Sr.) owned 300 acres. [13]

Richard Stephenson of the foregoing will, may have discovered the inevitable death knell as he began making his final arrangements, before March 21st, 1765. Three days after Christmas, in December of 1764, he deeded to his son, Richard Stephenson, Jr., a tract of land, which is recorded in Frederick County Court of Virginia. The witnesses were: John Slayton, William Crawford, Joseph Beeler, William McCormick and Hugh Stephenson. The will of Richard Stephenson, Jr., is recorded in present Berkely County, West Virginia, therefore the land deed to him by his father, may be located in that area. (Berkeley County was once a part of old Frederick County, Virginia).[19]
Richard Stephenson (son of John? Stephenson)49, 50, 51 was born 1716 in Virginia52, and died 1765 in Jefferson County, WV. He married Honoria Grimes Crawford.
Includes NotesNotes for Richard Stephenson:
From "The Frontiersman" by A Allen Eckhers (Richard Stephenson) was an indentured servant bought by my GGrandfather (your G Uncle) Valentine Crawford on the docks of Philadelphia and raised in the family home etc. until he worked out his obligation. !Son of Honora Grimes 2nd mar to Richard STEPHENSON (1st mar. to Col. Wm. Crawford)
All sons were leaders in the Rev. War except Marcus who ended as a private.
BEERS: WASHINGTON COUNTY: Page 791
Richard Stevenson was married in early manhood to Mrs Honora Crawford (widow of Hugh Crawford, an old Indian trader, by whom she had two sons, William and Valentine). William Crawford was colonel of the Fifth Virginia Regulars, commissioned in 1781. The circumstances of his death, which occurred June 11, 1782, in Sandusky, Ohio, are recorded in nearly every U. S. history. He was burned at the stake by Indians (who had captured him) for the evident purpose of wreaking vengeance on their victim in return for the historic massacre at Gnadenhutten, Tuscarawas Co., Ohio, many Indians having been there slaughtered by the whites. At the time of his capture Col. Crawford was conducting a campaign against the Wyandotts and Moravian tribes. To the union of Richard and Honora (Crawford) Stevenson children were born as follows: John, Hugh, Richard, James, Marcus and one daughter. Mrs. Stevenson possessed great physical strength, and was a kind and affectionate mother; she died in 1776. Gen. George Washington was a frequent visitor at this home, often taking part in athletic contests with the sons. The early friendship ripened with the passing years, and when Gen. Washington rose to prominence in military life, James Stevenson was yet his dearest friend and constant companion.
History of Berkeley County, West Virginia
Welcome to historic Berkeley County,WV, one of the first settled areas of the State of West Virginia. Many Quakers and Scotch-Irish Presbyterians, along with the English and Dutch, became residents here in the early 1700s. They were followed by the Germans who built many present farm complexes. The
County has a wealth of historic, architecturally important buildings dating from the 1740s into the 20th century. Many of these buildings, including several districts and villages, have been researched and placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Berkeley County was formed from Frederick County, Virginia, in 1772 and named for Lord Norborne Berkeley. The County seat was established in the
colonial village of Martinsburg, named for Thomas Bryan Martin, Lord Fairfax's nephew, and was incorporated in 1778. The arrival of the B&O Railroad in the 1840s gave Martinsburg and Berkeley County a big boost. During the Civil War, Martinsburg and Berkeley County, still a part of Virginia, experienced conflict and much destruction. Many families had divided allegiances. In June1861 Stonewall Jackson destroyed the railroad cars at the Martinsburg B&O Railroad complex and commandeered the engines, dragging them through Winchester to Strasburg. The Roundhouse and machine shops were completely stripped. The first major conflict in the area occurred on July 2, 1861, when the North's General Robert Patterson crossed the Potomac River at Williamsport and defeated the South's General Joseph E. Johnston and General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson. On October 18 and 19,1862 the Martinsburg B&O Railroad complex and Roundhouses were burned. After November 1863, Berkeley County became a part of the new state of West Virginia that supported the North. In 1872 the Pennsylvania Railroad came to the area, and it, along with the B&O Railroad, gave the area an excellent transportation base. In early times, a major source of the area's income came from selling flour produced by the area's water-powered mills to the Alexandria and Baltimore markets. Electricity, replacing water power, soon followed and the area became a large textile milling center. Martinsburg continues to be the focus of the business area of Berkeley County. Many of Martinsburg's historic and architecturally important buildings were included in seven historic districts placed on the NationalRegister of Historic Places in December 1980. Two more districts were placed on the National Register in December 2002.
Jefferson County, West Virginia
Jefferson County was established on October 26, 1801, from a portion of Berkeley County by an act of the Virginia General Assembly. It was named after Thomas Jefferson, vice-president of the United States and president elect. Years earlier, Jefferson had stood on a rock high above the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers at Harpers Ferry. In his Notes on the State of Virginia, he remarked that this view was "worth a trip across the Atlantic." The view is still breathtaking, and Jefferson County is still worth the trip. Located in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, Jefferson is the easternmost county in the state, being bounded by the Potomac River and Maryland on the north, the Blue Ridge Mountains and Loudoun County, Virginia, on the east, Clarke County, Virginia, on the south, and Opecquon Creek and Berkeley County, West Virginia, on the West. The county occupies 212.41 square miles, being 24 miles from north to south and 12 miles from east to west. Municipalities include Charles Town, the county seat (established in 1789 by George Washington's brother, Charles), Ranson (1910), Harpers Ferry (1851), Bolivar (1825), and Shepherdstown (1762). Two other municipalities, Virginius (1827) and Smithfield or Middleway (1798), were not rechartered after the Civil War.
September 2002, I was fortunate to make a trip to Harper’s Ferry, West Virginia, with my mom, Sara Stephenson Varner and my aunt, Mid Stephenson Maize. Several years ago, I had gotten in contact with an elderly lady, Mrs. John Porter Burns, as I was told by the local Jefferson County Museum that they owned the original Stephenson house. I never made it there. This summer, I contacted her again, but was replied by her daughter, Patricia Dicks. Her mother was still living in the home, but she was 87 years old now. Patricia, as did her mother several years ago, graciously invited us to see the home. We made reservations in the Antiquated Hilltop Inn at Harper’s Ferry. It is situated on a cliff overlooking the merge of the Shenandoah and the Potomac Rivers.
Patricia Dicks, who is a local school teacher in Shepherdstown, came to let us follow her to the farm the next day which is located off of Rt. 340 between Charles Town, WV and Ripon, WV. They showed us around inside and out, describing stories of their childhood, family, and the land.
The original home had been made of a cobblestone, (found all around), as the base of the mansion is still standing, but it is now a brick mansion. It is flanked on each side with a smaller cobblestone buildings, assumed to be a school and a kitchen. These 2 smaller buildings are the original Stephenson buildings, and the base of the mansion also. Richard Stephenson willed this property and houses to his youngest son, Richard Stephenson Jr in 1765. It was later owned by the Dr. John Bull, Beverly Whiting (where the current name of the estate came from, the prior name being Kalorama), Matthew Frame, and the current owners of over a century, the John Burns family.
I am attaching pictures of this beautiful farm, which is dunned a historical site, for preservation, and it is still farmed by the Burns family. They continue to restore the home as close as possible to the original condition.
Happy Holidays

Crawford had explored this land prior to 1765 because on Page 522 of the Fayette County History Book it states, “In that affidavit he (Crawford) says he began his improvements in the Yougheogheny in the fall of 1765; and moved his family to his new home in 1766.” The patent for his land was not issued until 1769. For some reason best known to himself, he did not take it out in his own name but caused it to be issued to his son, John. Again I believe the explanation for this is explained in the “deal with Washington” explained in a future chapter. [21]
One of Connellsville's First Veterans
The first white man in what is now Connellsville was William Crawford. He was a farmer/surveyor/soldier who was a friend of George Washington and had served with him in the Virginia militia. In the fall of 1765, he came over the mountains on horseback with his half-brother Hugh Stephenson. When they saw the beautiful meadow lands in the bend of the Youghiogheny River, Crawford decided to build his home there. The two men surveyed a tract of little over 376 acres and put up a log cabin. The next year, he moved his family into the cabin after a very hazardous trip over the mountains. Hannah, his wife, and their four children, had to follow what was little better than a path that was exceedingly rough and dangerous in
places. As they had just pack-horses to carry their possessions, only the essentials could be brought along.[22]
1765 William Crawford begins improvements on lands in western Pennsylvania. Son James was born to Ann Connell.[23]
“That between that time (1758) and the year 1765, a number of settlements were made on the public roads I that country by permission of several commanding officers at Fort Pitt. That in the fall of the year, he made some improvements on the west side of the Allegheny mountains…”[24]
1765[25]
Lyman Draper obtained statements[26] that are useful to this study. Samuel Murphy was reared in the home of William Crawford’s half-brother, John Stephenson. Samuel Murphy remembered that John Stephenson, William Crawford, and the brothers Lawrence Harrison and Charles Harrison, crossed the mountains at the same time. William Crawford later deposedt[27] that he made homestead improvements on Youghiogheny in 1765, and that he brought his family there in the spring of the following year.[28] [29]

December 28, 1776: Under the terms of the treaty, the Mi'kmaq and St. John's Tribes (Maliseet and Passamaquoddy) committed to "supply and furnish 600 strong men...or as many as may be" for service in the Continental Army. Three of the six Mi'kmaq delegates who signed the treaty "manfully and generously" volunteered to enlist immediately. The treaty also notes that their pay would commence upon their arrival at Washington's camp in New York. Tribal forces formed an "American Battalion" in the Battle of Fort Cumberland (November 22-December 28, 1776). They also protected the Maine border and launched other attacks against British installations.[2] Since 1995, the town of Watertown, Massachusetts has held an annual Treaty Day celebration.
Mi'kmaw historian Daniel Paul notes many individual Mi'kmaq did indeed volunteer and serve with the Continental army as per the terms of the Treaty. However the Signators who signed on were representing their Districts only; its part of Mi'kmaq Treaty protocol that each District was Sovereign and could sign Nation to Nation agreements; then they would return home to present the agreements to the Mi'kmaq Grand Council, the Council of Women and finally to all citizens, which if consensus occurred, the newly signed Treaty would be ratified District by District. The Watertown Treaty was never fully ratified by all Mi'kmaq First Nation Districts until modern times. What circumvented this process of coming to consensus and ratifying the Watertown Treaty as a whole in 1776 is unknown. (It is also noteworthy that one Mi'kmaq District—in New Brunswick—was pressured by the British into signing a treaty of alliance with them on 22 September 1779.[3])
The Treaty of Watertown is still honoured today : all Mi'kmaq citizens are allowed to join the US Armed Forces, regardless of the Nation of their birth. These warriors who have gone to Iraq and Afghanistan, and many other places around the world are celebrated.[37]
DECEMBER 28, 1776: We cannot avoid mentioning that we dont think it adviseable to exchange your Hessian Prisoners at this time. We think their Capture affords a favourable opportunity of making them acquainted with the Situation & Circumstances of many of their Country men who came here without a farthing of property & have by care & industry acquired plentifull Fortunes which they have enjoyed in perfect Peace & tranquility until these Invaders have thought proper to disturb & destroy those possessions. It will be proper to seperate the Officers from the Men & to Canton the latter in the back Counties which may be done by the Council of Safety untill the Congress are Consulted thereon. Your Excellency will excuse us for troubling you with our Sentiments on these matters & we think it necessary to appologize for doing so as its probable the whole has occurred to yourself. We remain with perfect regard & Esteem, Your Excellencys most Obedt. & most hble servants, Robt Morris Geo Clymer Geo Walton[38]
December 28, 1776: “I ordered the troops intended for this service which were about 2400 to parade back of McConkey’s Ferry.” GW, 7:454. Henry Knox’s estimate was a little higher: “a part of the army consisting of about 2500 or three thousand pass’d the River on Christmas night with almost infinite difficulty, with eighteen field pieces.” The source is a letter from Henry Knox to Lucy Knox, December 28, 1776, in William S. Stryker, The Battles of Trenton and Princeton (Boston, 1898), 371[39]
“Fort PITT, December 28, 1777.
“DEAR CRAWFORD :—As I expect the pleasure of seeing you in a few days, I shall defer communicating a matter I much wish to set on foot, until that time.
“There are at Cuyahoga, about one hundred miles from here, a magazine of arms and provisions, sent from Detroit, and fifteen batteaux lie there. You may guess the rest.
“Yours, etc.,

Zachariah Connell came here a few years later. (Connellsville, after 1770) For a time he lived with the Crawfords on the New Haven side but in 1778 moved over to the Connellsville side, taking up a tract embracing the old borough limits and designated in the survey as "Mud Island." His first cabin stood a short distance from the river banks but he later built a stone house in West Fairview Avenue and reside there until his death in August 13, 1813. His body is buried just east of the city limits, surrounded by graves of a few relatives.[42]
1777 Capt. Robert Vance stated that William Lindsay was with him in the 13th and 9th VA regiments.[43]
1778: It is difficult to say how the bargains between England and the German princes were regarded by public opinion in Germany at the time. Schlozer's Briefwechsel, the foremost German periodical of the period, was published at Gottingen, in the Hanoverian dominions of George III. It contains many articles on the American war, all written on the English side, with the single exception of a letter from Baron Steuben, who was fighting for the colonies. This letter is, moreover, annotated by the editor in a sense adverse to the Americans. This tone may perhaps have been forced upon Schlozer by circumstances, as the press in Germany was then tolerated rather than free. An interesting little book was published at Wolfenbuttel, near Brunswick, in 1778. It gives an account of America, its products, its geography, and its history, together with an excellent map. The author of the book is decidedly hostile to the colonists. The sending of more than seventeen thousand Germans to America is briefly, one might almost say incidentally, mentioned, though the earlier operations of the war and of these auxiliaries are described at some length. Yet the presence of so many Germans in the New World was undoubtedly the principal reason for the book's existence. It is fair, also, to consider that rebellion was in those days looked on with far sterner eyes than at present, and that, by people of a conservative turn of mind, at least, it was treated not as a political mistake, but as a heinous crime.
Quite different was the style in which the liberals of Europe spoke of the war and of the mercenaries. The principles which were to bring about the French Revolution were at work, and some of the actors of that great drama were already stepping upon the stage. Mirabeau, then a fugitive in Holland, published a pamphlet addressed "To the Hessians and other nations of Germany, sold by their Princes to England." It is an eloquent protest against the rapacity of the princes, a splendid tribute to the patriotism of the Americans. The genius of Mirabeau could look far enough into the future to recognize in the North American continent an asylum for the oppressed of all nations. His blow at the Landgrave of Hesse-Cassel struck home. Not only did the latter attempt to buy up the edition of the pamphlet, but he caused an answer to be published, which only had the effect of calling forth a rejoinder, in which the future tribune maintains that an offense against the freedom of nations is the greatest of crimes. In the same spirit wrote Abbe Raynal and others, some of them better known in Europe, at that time, than Mirabeau, and against them a paper warfare was kept up in the Dutch journals, then the most influential, because the freest, on the Continent. [44]
December 28, 1778: The Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania held a procession in honor of St. John the Evangelist Day[45] –Some three hundred Brethren marched to Christ Church[46] in Philadelphia to ceremonies in which “His Excellency our Illustrious Brother George Washington, Esq.” participated.[47]
As commander of the Revolutionary army, Washington attended the initiations of his officers into the Brotherhood. Inside his field tent the regimental drum became an alter. Upon it were laid the three great signs of Masonry, the Bible, the compass, and the square. Almost half of all the officers in the American Army became Masons. Masonic Jewels were worn like medals. But being a Mason was more than just conections, Pomp and Circumstance. The Brotherhood was a family away from home, whose lives had been uprooted by war. Masonry also provides the hope that if you fall into the hands of the enemy, you get better treatment. [48]

He was not only one of the youngest but also one of the hardest fighters on Quantrill's roster. After the Battle of Baxter Springs while eating supper and drinking whiskey from captured rations, Riley stepped up to one of the dead soldiers and said, 'Get up you S.O.B....and to everyone's surprise rise the man, having feigned death and thinking he had been discovered, stood up before him.

December 28, 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 Crawford). Van Buren, 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 Adams 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.[55]
