January 14, 83 BCE: Birthdate of Marcus Antonius, who is better known as Mark Antony (often pronounced Anthony). Mark Antony is credited by some with recognizing Herod as a Jewish leader and elevating him accordingly. Later, he would side with Cleopatra in her attempts to claim some of Eretz Israel for her own.
Feeney provides an intriguing example of the consequences of the new calendar in the person of Marc Antony, who was born in 83 BC on the day after the Ides of January (January 14). In the Republican calendar, January had twenty-nine days and Antony's birthday, since he was born after the Ides, was counted down to the next Kalends. That day was the seventeenth before the Kalends of February. In the Julian calendar, two days were added to January, which now had thirty-one. In 45 BC, celebrating his thirty-eighth birthday for the first time under the Julian calendar, Antony had to chose whether to recognize it on the same date (the seventeenth day before the Kalends), as he always had done, even though that date now was two days later (on the third day after the Ides), or on the same day (the day after the Ides). He chose to observe his birthday on the same day.
But this date did not exist in the calendar of the Republic. When Antony was born, there was no nineteenth day before the Kalends of February, since only seventeen days can be counted back. Nineteen days would be the day before the Ides of January, not the day after. Antony's birthday is the anniversary of the "day" he was born, but it is not the "date" of his birth simply because that day did not exist in the Julian calendar.
When Antony committed suicide in 30 BC, dying in Cleopatra's arms, his memory was damned by the Roman Senate (damnatio memoriae). He already had been declared a public enemy (Suetonius, Augustus, XVII.2) and his statues torn down when Octavian entered Alexandria (Plutarch, Antony, LXXXVI.5). The Senate also ordered that monuments to Antony be defaced or dismantled, his honors rescinded, his descendants forbidden to use the praenomen Marcus, and "the day on which he had been born accursed" (dies nefastus), a day unfit for public business (Dio, Roman History, LI.19.3; Plutarch, Cicero, XLIX.6).
And yet the greatest damnation was accidental. Not only was his natal day condemned but, with the reform of the Roman calendar by Julius Caesar, it no longer even existed. It was as if the man who had tried to save Caesar and later betrayed Rome never had been born.
76-66 BC: John Hyrcanus II, son of Alexander Jannaeus, High Priest of Israel 76-66 BC.

73 BCE: Herod was born in 73 B.C. and grew up in Judea a kingdom in the hgeart of ancient Palestine that was torn by civil war and caught between powerful enemies. The Hasmonaean monarchy that had ruled Judaea for 70 years was split my a vicious fight for the throne between two princely brothers, Hyrcanus II and Aristobulus II. The kingdom was in turn caught in a larger geopolitical struggle bgetween the Roman legions to the north and west, and the Parthians, historic enemies of Rome, to the east. Herod’s father, the chief adviser to Hyrcanus and a gifted general, threw in his lot with the Romans, who Banished Aristobulus and made Hyrcanus king of Judaea.
70 BC-70 AD


Ossiary and lid. Jordan.
66-63 BC: Aristobulus II, son of Alexander Jannaeus, High Priest of Israel 66-63 BC.
64 BC:
Pompey captures Jerusalem; leaves the Maccabean high priest Hyrcanus in power with Antipater as civil adviser.
63 BC: In 63 BC, Judaea became a protectorate of Rome. Coming under the administration of a governor, Judaea was allowed a king; the governor's business was to regulate trade and maximize tax revenue. While the Jews despised the Greeks, the Romans were a nightmare. Governorships were bought at high prices; the governors would attempt to squeeze as much revenue as possible from their regions and pocket as much as they could.
Before 63 B.C.: Jews believed that holy men were able to exert their will on natural phenonmena. Thus, in addition to offering formal, liturgical prayers for rain, in times of drought people urged persons reputed to be miracle-workers to exercise their infallible intervention on behalf of the communiytyu. Such a request for relief from their misery is reported to have been addressed to Honi some time begfore the fall of Jerusalem to Pompey in 63 B.C.
63 BCE: In 63, Roman general Pompey is invited to help settle a disputed succession to the throne and ends up occupying Judaea. Roman general Pompey takes Jerusalem. Among the Roman troops are soldiers from all corners of the empire displaying the Roman Eagle. Pompey besieges the Temple, and in three months, breaks down the walls and kills an estimated 12,000 Jews.
63 B.C.: In 63 B.C.E., the Roman general Pompey conquered Jerusalem and greatly curtailed the Jewish territory ruled by the high priests, effectively wiping out the Hasmonean Empire. They granted the Hasmonean king, Hyrcanus II, limited authority under the Roman governor of Damascus. The Jews did not accept the Roman rule well, as evidenced by numerous insurrections. For the larger priesthood, the arrival of the Romans was no less catastrophic. The Cohanim lost their political independence and most of their power; once again their purpose was limited to the sacred.
100 years after the Maccabean revolt the Romans occupied Jerusalem, and eventually hunted down all the remaining Hasmonean royalty. The last King of Israel, Matityahu, son of Judah was exiled to Babilonea, modern day Iraq, where according to some sources, he was executed by a blow to the back of the head which split his skull in two.
63 B.C.: In 63 BC, Judaea became a protectorate of Rome. Coming under the administration of a governor, Judaea was allowed a king; the governor's business was to regulate trade and maximize tax revenue. While the Jews despised the Greeks, the Romans were a nightmare. Governorships were bought at high prices; the governors would attempt to squeeze as much revenue as possible from their regions and pocket as much as they could.[1]
January 14, 1129: Formal approval of the Order of the Templar at the Council of Troyes. The Knights Teplar became a monastic order of the Catholic Church, the Order of the Temple of Soloman. The Knights Templar had become monks and joined their brothers, the Knights Hospitaler protecting pilgrims as servants of God. Troyes was the home town of the great Jewish commentator Rashi who died there a quarter of a century before the council was held. At the time of the meeting, Rabbinu Tam, the most famous of Rashi’s grandson was 29 years old and living at the village of Ramerupt, which was just outside of Troyes. The term “Templar” refers to the Temple of Solomon. In its early days, the Order saw itself as a protector of Jerusalem and Solomon’s Temple. When it broadened its activity the members of the order learned about banking from the Jews. Unlike others related to crusading activities, the Templars did not engage in the wholesale slaughter of Jews.

1130: Little is known of the early history of the clan.[7] The 19th century historian William Forbes Skene gave the clan a descent linked to the clans of Siol Alpin. He claimed that the Finguine who appears in the MS 1450 was the brother of the Anrias of whom the Clan Gregor claim descent from in about 1130.[7] Because of the clan's early association with the Lords of the Isles there is no trace of early history of the Mackinnons as an independent clan.

1130: 1130 is one of the driest for the Anasazi in New Mexico. They have survived previous droughts but the population has increased greatly and there is no suitable territory to expand into. It is impossible to grow enough food to support the population. No agriculture means no culture. The Chawko Canyon is abandoned. These ancient Americans cut down the last tree and move on.

1130: Pueblo peoples at Pueblo Bonito, NM, Death of Pope Honorius II, Pope Innocent II elected – Anacletus II becomes the antipope – fails to get secular backing because he is son of a Jew, Roger II crowned King of Sicily at Palermo, Church of Sant’ Ambrogio in Milan, Almohad Dynasty in Morocco to 1169 founded by preacher ibn Tumart, Pope Honorius II dies February 13, Pope Innocent II appointed February 14 (Lorenzo Papareschi, Pueblo peoples at Pueblo Bonito, NM
1131: By 1131 the Crusader kingdom comprised the greater part of Palestine and the coast of Syria. The European invaders, who over time became known generically as Franks, concentrated in the important coastal cities of Latakia, Tortosa, Tripoli, Beirut, Tyre, Acre, Haifa, Caesarea, Jaffa, and Ascalon, as well as the inland cities of Edessa, Antioch, Tiberias, and, most important, Jerusalem itself.

1131: Welsh Tintern Abbey founded for Cistercian Order.
1132: St. Denis Abbey – first gothic church – built by Abbot Suger in Paris, Henry I of France grants charters of corporate towns protecting commerce and industry, Persian poet Omar Kayyam dies.
1133: Lothar III crowned emperor by Pope Innocent II, Diocese of Carlisle founded, St. Bartholomew’s Fair at Smithfield London (722 years).
1134: Emperor Lothar III invests Albert the Bear with the Nordmark, Western façade of Chartres Cathedral built, Robert I of Normandy dies in English prison, Robert, Duke of Normandy dies in England's prison.
1135: Death of Henry I of England, (26th great grandfather) nephew Stephen of Boulogne (1st cousin 27x removed) assumes throne, invoking civil war between Stephen and Plantagenets, death of Emperor Hai-tsung, death of Boleslav III Duke of Poland, King Conrad, Frederick of Swabia, the King of Denmark and the Duke of Poland submit to Lothar III, Foundation of Italian line of the House of Este (until 1803), Henry I of England dies from food poisoning (Lampreys) Daughter Matilda (25th great grandmother) willed to rule but nephew Stephen of Blois (Boulogne) takes Crown – civil war ensues, Henry I's daughter Mathilda to rule, Husband Geoffrey d' Anjou not popular, so son Stephen takes control, Henry I dies - food poisoning, Stephen of Flanders usurps throne, Henry I of England dies wanting daughter Mathilda to rule, husband Geoffrey of Anjou who was unpopular, her son Stephen claimed crown.
January 14, 1236: Henry III (22 great grandfather) married on January 14, 1236, Canterbury Cathedral, Canterbury, Kent, to Eleanor of Provence, (22nd great grandmother) with at least five children born:
1. Edward I (21st great grandfather) (b. June 17, 1239 – d. July 7, 1307), married firstly Eleanor of Castile, had issue; married secondly Margaret of France, had issue.
2. Margaret (21st great grandaunt) (b. September 20, 1240 – d. February 26, 1275), married King Alexander III of Scotland
3. Beatrice of England (b. June 25, 1242 – d. March 24, 1275), married to John II, Duke of Brittany
4. Edmund Crouchback (January 16, 1245 – d. June 5, 1296)
5. Katherine (b. November 25, 1253 – d. May 3, 1257), deaf and mute from birth,[10] though her deafness may not have been discovered until age 2.[11]
There is reason to doubt the existence of several attributed children of Henry and Eleanor.
• Richard (b. after 1247 – d. before 1256),
• John (b. after 1250 – d. before 1256), and
• Henry (b. after 1253 – d. young)
are known only from a 14th-century addition made to a manuscript of Flores Historiarum, and are nowhere contemporaneously recorded.
• William (born and died c. 1258) is an error for the nephew of Henry's half-brother, William de Valence, 1st Earl of Pembroke.
Another daughter, Matilda, is found only in the Hayles Abbey chronicle, alongside such other fictitious children as a son named William for King John, and an illegitimate son named John for King Edward I. Matilda's existence is doubtful, at best. For further details, see Margaret Howell, The Children of King Henry III and Eleanor of Provence (1992).
January 14, 1301: Andrew III of Hungary dies, ending the Arpad dynasty in Hungary. While his predecessor on the Hungarian throne had approved a variety of ant-Jewish rules and regulations, Andrew took a different tact “when, in the privilegium granted by him to the community of Posonium (Bratislava), that the Jews in that city should enjoy all the liberties of citizens.” Things went downhill for the Jews of Hungary after Andrew’s death and they were expelled from the kingdom in 1349 under the belief that the Jews were responsible for the Black Death.
January 1410: As a result of the king's ill health, Henry V (4th cousin 18x removed) began to take a wider share in politics. From January 1410, helped by his uncles Henry and Thomas Beaufort – legitimated sons of John of Gaunt – he had practical control of the government.
January 1414: Henry tackled all of the domestic policies together and gradually built on them a wider policy. From the first, he made it clear that he would rule England as the head of a united nation. On the one hand, he let past differences be forgotten – the late Richard II was honourably re-interred; the young Mortimer was taken into favour; the heirs of those who had suffered in the last reign were restored gradually to their titles and estates. On the other hand, where Henry V saw a grave domestic danger, he acted firmly and ruthlessly – such as the Lollard discontent in January 1414, including the execution by burning of Henry's old friend Sir John Oldcastle, so as to "nip the movement in the bud" and make his own position as ruler secure.
January 1419: Rouen fell. Those Norman French who had resisted were severely punished: Alain Blanchard, who had hanged English prisoners from the walls of Rouen, was summarily executed; Robert de Livet, Canon of Rouen, who had excommunicated the English king, Henry V was packed off to England and imprisoned for five years.[20]
January 1450: Margaret was married to Suffolk's son, John de la Pole. The wedding may have been held between January 28, and February 7, 1444, when she was perhaps a year old, but certainly no more than three. However there is more evidence to suggest they were married in January 1450 after Suffolk had been arrested and was looking to secure his son's future. Papal dispensation was granted on August 18, 1450 because the spouses were too closely related and this concurs with the later date of marriage.[5] Three years later, the marriage was dissolved and King Henry VI (5th cousin 17x removed) granted Margaret's wardship to his own half-brothers, Jasper and Edmund Tudor.[6][7][8]
January 1463: Warwick had to organise the recapture of the castles, which was accomplished by January 1463. The leaders of the rebellion, including Sir Ralph Percy, were pardoned and left in charge of the retaken castles.[65] At this point, Warwick felt secure enough to travel south.
August 10, 1439-January 14, 1476: Anne of York (5th cousin 17x removed)(August 10, 1439 – January 14, 1476), wife of Henry Holland, 3rd Duke of Exeter, Husband of the 5th cousin 17x removed) and secondly, Sir Thomas St. Leger.
January 1484: Richard III’s (5th cousin 17 x removed) title to the throne was confirmed by Parliament in January 1484 by the document Titulus Regius.
The princes, presumably still lodged in the Tower of London, the Royal Residence, disappeared from sight. Although Richard III has been accused of having Edward and his brother killed, there is debate about their actual fate.
Richard and his wife Anne endowed King's College and Queens' College at Cambridge University, and made grants to the church. He planned the establishment of a large chantry chapel in York Minster, with over one hundred priests.[36] Richard also founded the College of Arms.

January 1484: He also introduced bail in January 1484, to protect suspected felons from imprisonment before trial and to protect their property from seizure during that time.[57]

April 1492: Columbus first presented his plan to Portugal in 1483, where it was rejected. He went on to Spain, ruled jointly by the monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella. The royal pair were engaged in driving the Muslims from Granada but granted him a salary and a position in the Spanish court. Spain gained control of the southern province in January 1492.
January 14, 1514: Pope Leo X issued a papal bull against slavery. This is the same Pope Leo who clashed with Martin Luther and who offered protection to the Jews at various times including when he reconfirmed the privileges of French Jews despite opposite from the local bishops and banned the wearing of the Jew badge in France.
January 14, 1739: Convention of Pardo
The Convention of Pardo was a 1739 treaty between Great Britain and Spain designed to find a solution to the issues of smuggling, the Asiento and freedom of the seas that had strained relations between the two states for the past few decades, and was agreed to try to prevent war breaking out. It is also known as the Treaty of Pardo or the Convention of El Pardo.
Background
Spanish authorities had been trying to enforce a ban on foreign ships trading with Spanish colonies in the West Indies and South America, and had arrested the crews of numerous British ships and tortured some, such as the notable case of Robert Jenkins who had his ear cut off by Spanish Coast Guards. The issue provoked a surge of public opinion in Britain clamouring for a military solution. The Spanish were not in a position to fight, and were keen to avoid war. The British cabinet, dominated by Sir Robert Walpole and the Duke of Newcastle also wanted to maintain peace, and so the two sides met in Pardo to discuss terms.
Convention
Delegates from both sides met at the El Pardo palace in Madrid from late 1738. By January 1739 they had drawn up a basic agreement. The British had initially demanded £200,000 in compensation but ultimately reduced this claim to just £95,000. Spain had initially demanded unlimited rights to search vessels, but they had eventually agreed to territorial limits. Britain was also to pay Spain £68,000 in return for not-payment of proceeds from the Asiento. The signatories also agreed to further discussion of the boundaries of Georgia. The chief British negotiator Sir Benjamin Keene felt Britain had got a good deal from the Convention. It was signed on January 14.
Aftermath
Further information: War of Jenkins' Ear
The Convention met with a very unfavourable reception when it was presented in London. Many of the merchant captains were extremely unhappy that the British compensation claim had been more than halved, while the South Sea Company were concerned by the agreement allowing the Spanish limited rights to search British ships. Within months the situation had turned sharply towards war, and the Convention grew increasingly fragile. By the end of 1739 both Britain and Spain had violated the Convention, and in October 1739 formal war was declared beginning the War of Jenkins' Ear. The war later become submerged into the wider War of the Austrian Succession. The issues that had started the war were largely ignored during the Congress of Breda and the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle that ended it in 1748 as they were no longer priorities for the two sides.
Some issues were eventually resolved in the 1750 Treaty of Madrid, although illegal British trade with the Spanish colonies continued to flourish.
1739-40; Jews expelled from LittleRussia.
Abt. 1740
William HARRISON (2nd cousin 7x removed)b: ABT 1740 in Orange, Va.

William worked for and lived with John Vance (7th great grandfather) as a surveyor apprentice.

1740 : Colonel Hugh Stephenson (future resident of the area) was born.

1740: The presumption, suggestive of William Crawford participating in King George’s War, becomes more a reality when a study is made of four years prior to 1744. The Spanish War of 1740 developed between England and Spain, due to the Spanish pressure in Florida, including other troubles. The English colonies furnished about four thousand men for an expedition against the Spanish West Indies; the soldiers suffering from desease, starvation and brutality, only a few lived to return home. This will justify the idea, that the English colonies had abruptly, suffered a loss of man power.

1740: Sarah Vance was born in 1740, to Samuel Vance b. 1691, and Sarah "Blackburn" Vance b. 1709. She later married John Vail in 1755.






1740….


Maria Theresa of Austria
CREDIT: Public domain
Maria Theresa, enlightened despot
Like Catherine de Medici, Maria Theresa of Austria did not have an auspicious upbringing.
"She's basically raised without much training," Pavlac said. "She gets married to her cousin, and they don't expect anything from her."
Nonetheless, she was destined to inherit the Austrian throne. When the kingdom fell to her in 1740, it was broke and under attack from other European sovereigns. Pregnant (as she would be almost constantly over the next 20 years -- she had 16 children), Maria Theresa fought back. She held on to the Austrian Empire and during her 40-year reign would institute reforms in medicine, education and criminal justice.
It was far from safe to criticise the Margrave's conduct. In 1740 one Christoph Wilhelm von Rauber was accused of posting up caricatures and lampoons. For this he was sentenced to strike himself on the mouth, under penalty of having it done for him by the executioner; to see the latter burn his lampoons; and finally to have his head cut off; which last punishment was graciously commuted to perpetual imprisonment and confiscation ("Geschichte des vorletzten Markgrafen von Brandenburg-Ansbach," von Karl Heinrich Ritter von Lang.)
Charles Alexander, son of this murdering Margrave, appears to have been more humane than his father. He was sent in his youth to Utrecht to learn republican virtues, and then to Italy, probably to learn princely graces. He returned worn out with dissipation, the blame of which his father found it convenient to lay on his travelling companion, Councillor Mayer. The latter was imprisoned at Zelle, and his subsequent fate is unknown. According to another story, he was executed at Altenkirchen.
January 14, 1772: "Letters of Administration were granted to Catherine Harrison, his wife, and son, William Harrison, January 14, 1772". Sometime following her husband's death Catherine Harrison went to KY and was residing with her sister, Mary (Harrison) Moore, wife of Capt Thomas Moore, where she died 1826. (Deposition of John Cord, of Bedford Co, PA (Ibid). Lawrence Harrison entire history will be found in Torrence & Allied Families, p. 320-325. [S9] [S126] [S9] [S252] [S250]

January 14, 1791: The following is an account of the murder of Jasper Smith of Elbert County, Georgia, by his father-in-law, James Meredith. It was the first murder trial in the newly formed Elbert County. Jasper Smith was the son of John "Little River" Smith and moved from Montgomery County, NC to Georgia, as did his father-in-law. Following the account of the trial are the wills of Jasper Smith and James Meredith. Smith's widow later moved to Franklin County, Ga.

The Augusta Chronicle and Gazette of the State:
Law Report of a State Trial, made to the Governor, according to the Act
The State versus James Meredith.

The prisoner being charged by the coroner's inquest with the murder of Jasper Smith, before the division of Wilkes County, was apprehended and committed to that jail and upon his writ of Habeas Corpus was remanded. After the commission of the act, the county was divided by law; and the place was found to be within the new county of Elbert. In riding the Western Circuit the Attorney General mentioned this case and another to Judge Walton, and suggested doubts where they were ultimately cognizable. The cases being considered, it was thought proper to direct the following Order, as they passed through Wilkes County.

Chambers, Washington in Wilkes County, January 14, 1791.

Upon motion of the Attorney-General, it is ordered. That all prisoners or persons recognized to appear at this place the ensuing term, for offences charged to committed in that part which now constitutes Elbert
county, be turned over by the Sheriff of Wilkes to the Sheriff of Elbert county; and all papers touching the same be delivered by the Clerk of the one to the clerk of the other. Attenst, BEN. CATCHINGS, C. W. C.

The prisoner was of course removed into Elbert county. . . .

Upon the trial, the first evidence produced on the part of the state was the daughter of the prisoner, and the wife of the deceased; Rebecca Smith. In coming to the book to be sworn she exhibited those demonstrations of distress which were to be expected from her sex; from a wife who had seen an affectionate husband murdered in her presence, and of their children; from a daughter who was to convict and bring to the gibbet, an aged father, to whom she owed her being. Encouraged by the Court, she deposed, That there had been a difference of some standing between her father and husband. That on Monday before the fact happened, her husband went to Petersburg with tobacco, and she went to
meeting. That, in their absence, a wench of her father's came to their house, and whipped two of the children. That she sent to her father, and requested him to correct the negroe, or that her husband would when he came home; which he refused to do. That the next day, and before the return of her husband, her father sent for a dirk that had been at their house a long time. Then when her husband came home, she was telling him of the children being whipped, and one of them came in, and said that grand-daddy was coming down to an out-house close by. That her husband then proposed going down to persuade him to correct the negroe, which she approved of. That presently after she went down, and found them quarrelling; and the old man ordered her away, saying that he had as live kill her as her husband, and then ordered his negroe to get an axe, and kill her husband. That he had then the dirk in his hand, which he had sent for the day before, and swore bitterly that he would kill him. That her husband repeatedly desired to be at peace, and proposed to sit down on a log and talk the matter over. That her father refused, and told him to get a gun, and he would fight him equal. That her father had worked himself up to a violent rage, and having the dirk in his hand, her husband threw away a switch which he had broke, as she supposed, to whip the negroes, and took up a small forked stick to defend himself. That he afterwards threw away this stick, and went to the house for another. That he returned, and still offered peace; and letting his stick fall, and turning from the old man, he rushed by her and stabbed her husband in the side. That, as he pulled the dirk from the wound, he said he was a dead man, and the prisoner damned him,. and said he got what he deserved. That, after she had got her husband to the house, he began to be very ill; and she called her father; and that he came, with the dirk still in his hand, looked in his face, and said it was no matter, it was good enough. That her husband afterwards desired to see him, but he did not come. The deceased died of the wound the next day. In the cross examination of this witness, it appeared that when her father threatened her life, her husband wrung the stick in the old man's face, and told him he should not hurt her. But that he was entirely pacified at the time of being stabbed; and that she verily believed her father sent for the dirk the day before for that purpose, although some meat hooks and other things were sent for at the same time. That the ground on which the wound had been given belonged to the deceased; but had been planted by the old man the season before without rent. Mark Smith, son of the deceased, aged sixteen years, of apparent discretion, deposed to the like effect; with the addition, that, about two weeks before, he heard his grandfather tell his father that he had a great mind to kill him. John Baker, an indifferent person, swore, that about two or three weeks before the fact, he went with the deceased to the prisoner's house. That the old man quarrelled with both, and threatened to kill the deceased, offered to fight a duel with guns, &c. which the deceased. There was no evidence as to the fact offered on the part of the prisoner, or to anything else that was material. His counsel, in the course of the most lengthy arguments, labored to bring the homicide within the description of manslaughter; and assimilated it to the case of the King of England versus Reason and Traitor. On the part of the state it was contended, with a becoming zeal, that the prisoner had been guilty of the crime of murder. The trial continued from ten o'clock in the morning to about seven in the evening, the judge charged the jury to the following effect. That, from the testimony before us, it was our duty, to select those portions of it which palpably establish the facts for and against the prisoner. and 1. to examine what kind of killing the prisoner has been guilty of. It was presently after the deceased had come home, that the prisoner came towards the out house, and that the deceased met him there to prevail with him to correct the negroes for beating the children. This the prisoner refusing, and the deceased threatening to do it himself, the fatal quarrel was produced which her in death; and the prisoner is guilty of murder, or not guilty, as the evidence will go to establish this as connected with any preceding quarrel, or shall be short of it. If this quarrel could be extracted from all others, and the event considered by itself, it could only be adjudged man-slaughter. But, when we consider the several portions of evidence on this ground, 1. That there had long existed a quarrel between the prisoner and the deceased. 2. That the quarrel was renewed by a negroe of the prisoner beating the children of the deceased in the absence of parents. 3. That the weapon was sent for upon that occasion, and after the mother had sent a message to the prisoner with a complaint. 4. That two or three weeks before the prisoner threatened the life of the deceased. 5. That the prisoner had the same weapon he had sent for the day before in his hand upon that occasion; and with all his conduct towards the deceased after the fact was committed. The judge said, to take all these things together, we shall feel our minds involuntarily influenced to believe that the killing was of that deliberate and malevolent kind which constitutes murder. But he did not want to impress his opinion on the minds of the jury. It was their province to determine on the distinction which he had stated. If, from the evidence, they should be of the opinion that the quarrel, at the time of the death, was unconnected with any other, they would not find him guilty of murder, but of man-slaughter. . .

The jury having retired returned in about twelve minutes, finding the prisoner guilty of Murder.

. . . Sentence of death was passed, to be executed the 22d instant. Upon the whole, the Judge, in making this Report, feels it a duty to add, that he does not conceive that the criminal has any claim upon the mercy of his country. The life of an unimpeached citizen was wantonly taken away; and if human punishments are ever necessary, he conceives it is son in the present instance. . .

For the prosecution, the Attorney-General, Mr. Walker and Mr. Dickenson. For the prisoner, Mr. Blackbourn, Mr. Seaborn Jones, Mr. Williams and the elder Carnes. Given at my Chambers in Augusta, the 5th day February, (February 5,1791) George Walton
January 14, 1811: Avrom Ber Gotlober (January 14, 1811, Starokonstantinov, Volhynia - April 12, 1899, Białystok) was a Jewish writer, poet, playwright, historian, journalist and educator. He mostly wrote in Hebrew, but also wrote poetry and dramas in Yiddish. His first collection was published in 1835.
Gotlober's last name is often transliterated as Gottlober. He was widely known by his initials, ABG, which in Hebrew and Yiddish are the first three letters, alef-bet-giml.
ABG was a maskil, a leader in the haskalah, the nineteenth-century Jewish Enlightenment in Russia and Eastern Europe. While his literary output is no longer widely known, he was important for several reasons:
• As a teacher in the state-sponsored schools for Jews, where he taught and influenced two founders of Yiddish literature: Mendele Mocher Sforim, whom Sholom Aleichem called "the zeyde (grandfather) of us all", and Abraham Goldfaden, the founder of the professional Yiddish theater.
• As a historian who wrote histories of the Karaites (Bikoret le-toldot ha-Karaim) and of the Hasidism and Kabbalah (Toldot ha-Kabalah veha-Hasidut) that are still cited by scholars.
• As a social observer and memoirist, who had the fortune to live long enough to describe the social and political conditions of the 1820s and 1830s for audiences of the 1880s. Scholars widely cite his memoirs (Zikhronot u-masaot, or Memoirs and Travels), his contribution to Sholom Aleichem's Yudishe Folks-Bibliothek, and his articles in his own periodical Ha-Boker Or (The Morning Light) and in other periodicals.

Russian Poet and author, Abraham Baer Gottlober, when at the age of fourteen (born January 14, 1811) he married the daughter of a wealthy “Hasid” in Chernigov, and settled there. When his inclination for secular knowledge became known, his father ion law, on the advice of a Hasidic rabbi, caused the young couple to be divorced, and Gottlober, who had joined the Hasidim after his marriage, now became their bitter enemy.
January 14, 1811: Abraham Baer Gottlober was a Russian-Hebrew poet and author; born at Starokonstantinov, Volhynia, January 14, 1811; died at Byelostok April 12, 1899. His father was a cantor who sympathized with the progressive movement, and young Gottlober was educated in that spirit to the extent of receiving instruction in Biblical and modern Hebrew as an addition to the usual Talmudical studies.

George Frederick LeClere was born in Dampier Outré France January 14, 1817. He was a son of George F. and Catherine (Belea) LeClere, who had eleven children. He was a grandson of Joseph LeClere who used to stretch himself to be tall enough to get into the picked cavalry regiment which was the personal body guard of Napoleon
Later on in Austria this regiment was sent ahead on a mission and was cut off from the main army and practically annihilated. He was left on the battle field in two feet of snow with twenty sword and sabre cuts on his head. He was practically scalped.
He watched a man walking among the fallen soldiers with a club killing wounded soldiers as he gathered watches, jewelry and money. He was getting pretty close to him when three Austrian women appeared and picked on him as one whose life might be saved.
He was nursed back to health, but was never well after that. He was a home guard or policeman in Paris for the remainder of his military career, which was during high day of France.
Napoleon would send men into the streets of Paris with a horse cart load of bright pennies which they shoveled off and allowed folks to scramble for.
George Frederick LeClere immigrated with his parents to America in 1828 and settled in Mexico Oswego Co. New York. They settled in heavy timber, some which they cut, piled up and burnt using the ashes as fertilizer, as the soil was thin and rocky, then used the cleared off land to raise crops on.
On April 23 1841 he was married to Miss Louise Katherine Laude, a native of France (Semondaus Doubs France)
They began farming in Oswego Co. New York, where they lived until 1840 when they came to Iowa and settled on a Mineral reserve, an 80 acre farm 8 miles south of Dubuque.
They traveled from New York by the way of the canal and over the Great Lakes to Chicago, which was then swamp. Their emigrant wagons and oxen were put on shore. There were 18 in the party, which helped each other get through the swamp, with wooden poles prying their heavy wagons up as oxen pulled.
By good management and thrift he continued to add to his land until he became the owner of over 1800 acres of land. He accumulated a considerable fortune a goodly portion of which he presented to his children several years before his death.
They moved to Monticello Iowa in 1878. His wife died June 1st, 1897 and was buried in the French Cemetery near Dubuque Iowa. After her death he made his home with his children. He died October 24th 1904 and was buried in the French Cemetery near Dubuque Iowa.
To this union eight children were born. Names are in the following history.
For example to trace use Charles F. LeClere No.I, find Charles F. LeClere with (I) under that you will find all of his children. Take his oldest child No. ( or any other, turn to (9) and find all of Henry C. LeClere’s children etc.
You will find some of the history not filled, but I have tried to find all of the information I could. From year to year you will have to add on yourself.

• George F. LeClere, born January 14, 1817
• George F. LeClere. The gentleman whose name introduces this sketch is one of the wealthy retired farmers residing in Monticello. He came to Iowa comparatively a poor man and began farming on a tract of eight acres in Dubuque County. He made a specialty of feeding cattle and hogs,a d as he prospered invested his mony in real estate, until at one time he was the owner of over eighteen hundred acres in this state. He is consequently one of the wealthiest retired famrers in this portion of Iowa and one of its largest landowners, notwithstanding he has given his children considerable property when ready to settle in life.
• Mr. LeClere was born in France, January 14, 1817, and is the son of George F. and Catherine (Belea) LeClere, who emigrated to the United States with their family in the year 1828, landingin New York. They made their home on a farm in the woods of Oswego County, which they cleared, cultivated and lived upon until 1852, when the father died. Mrs. LeClere survivied him until 1872, when she passed away at the home of her son, G. F.
• The subject of this sketch was one in the family of eleven children born to his parents, only four of whom are now living. One is in New York, another in Storm Lake, Iowa, and the third in Dubuque County. Like his brothers and sisters he attended the district school in Oswego County, N.YU. and remained on his father’s farm until attaining manhood.
• In 1841 our subject and Miss Louisa Laude were united in marriage. The lady was born in France and was the daughter of James and Margaret Bourquin Laude. Mr and Mrs LeClere located upon a farm in Oswego County, N.Y. where they lived until 1846, the date of their advent into Dubuque County, Iowa. Here he became the proprietor of eighty acres, which he cultivated in such a profitable manner that he was soon enabled to enlarge his estate, and continued to add to his possessions until he became the owner of one of the largest tracts in the county.
• In 1878 Mr. LeClere removed from his farm to Monticello, where he has since resided in the ease and luxury which his industry so well deserves. To their union there have been born eight children, of whom four sons and two daughters are living. Charles F. is in Prairieburg, Iowa; Eliza C. in the wife of Morris Bebb, and resides in Monticello; George F. is a farmer and minister of the Presbyterian Church and makes his home in Texas; Albert D. is the owner of two hundred and forty acres of fine farming land in Dubuque County; Henry A. Has in his possession three hundred and twenty acres also lying in Dubuque County; Lulu is Mrs. Smith; Emily and Susie are deceased. In politics our subject was in early life a Whig and cast his first Presidential vote for General Harrison. He is now, however, a strong Republican and takes great interest in the success of his party. Religiously he and his wife are devoted members of the Presbyterian Church, and their whole lives reflect great credit in that connection.
