January 16: 550: During the Gothic War, The Ostrogoths, under King Totila, conquer Rome after a long siege, by bribing the Isaurian garrison. The Ostrogoths was the name applied to the eastern Goths. The Goths were Germanic in origin and and are often thought of as part of the various Barbarian Hordes that destroyed the Roman Empire. Unlike other such groups such as the Visigoths and Vandals, the Ostrogoths, at least under their greatest leader Theodoric the Great, were known for their religious toleration which was extended to the Jewish people.[1]

(January 16, 1245 – d. June 5, 1296): Edmund Crouchback .[7]
January 16, 1349: BASEL (Switzerland) The guilds brought up charges against the Jews accusing them of poisoning the wells. Despite an attempted defense by the town council, 600 Jews together with the rabbi were burned to death. One hundred and forty children were taken from their parents and forcible baptized. The victims were left unburied, the cemetery destroyed and the synagogue turned into a church. The remaining Jews were expelled and not readmitted until 1869. [8]
January 16, 1412: The Medici family is appointed official banker of the Papacy. According to the Jewish Virtual Library “the organized Jewish communities of Florence, Siena, Pisa and Livorno were political creations of the Medici rulers. And like the Medici Grand Dukedom itself, these communities took shape in the course of the sixteenth century. For more about the unusual relationship between this famous Italian family see:

January 16th, 1492 - The first grammar of a modern language, in the Spanish language, is presented to Queen Isabella.[10]
January 16, 1547: Ivan the Terrible was crowned Czar of Russia. From the point of view of the Jewish people Ivan deserved to be called “the Terrible.” In 1563, he gave the Jews of Polotsk, Lithuania, the choice of converting or dying. When the Jews refused the cross, Ivan had his soldiers drill holes in the frozen Dvina River and then pushed three hundred Jewish men, women and children through them to their death.[11]

January 16, 1561: The parliament of Scotland having learned the intelligence of the death of Francis II, had assembled on the January 16, and had already deputed Lord James Stuart and the Bishop of
Ross to repair to France, to request their sovereign to return to her dominions. Queen Elizabeth and the King of Spain then also
sent ambassadors to Mary, with compliments of condolence.
At the commencement of her viduity, Mary was residing at the court of her brother-in-law; but observing that Catherine de Medicis looked upon her with an evil eye, and that she sought on every occasion to mortify her, she resolved gradually to withdraw from the court. [14]
January 16, 1581: Elizabeth (8th cousin 14x removed), who for some time had been distrustful of the Earl of Shrewsbury, signs a warrant to transfer Mary to the castle of Ashby-de-la-Zouche, in Leicestershire, to be under the care of Sir Henry Nevil and Sir William Pelham. But Lord Burleigh soon succeeded in pacifying the queen's anger against the Earl of Shrewsbury, and btained the recall of this warrant. Mary was very unwell at this time, and it appears that she knew nothing of what was meditated against her. [15]
January 1605: Charles I (11th cousin 11x removed) was created Duke of York, as is customary in the case of the English sovereign's second son, and made a Knight of the Bath.[9] Thomas Murray, a Presbyterian Scot, was appointed as a tutor.[10] Charles apparently eventually conquered his physical infirmity,[11] which might have been caused by rickets,[7] and grew to a peak height of 5 feet 4 inches (163 centimetres).[8] In 1611, he was made a Knight of the Garter.[11][16]
January 1615: Pocahontas (4th great grandmother of the wife of the brother in law of the 6th cousin 7x removed) was captured by the English during Anglo-Indian hostilities in 1613, and held for ransom. During her captivity, she converted to Christianity and took the name Rebecca. When the opportunity arose for her to return to her people, she chose to remain with the English. In April 1614, she married tobacco planter John Rolfe, and in January 1615, bore him a son, Thomas Rolfe. Pocahontas's marriage to John Rolfe in 1614 was the first recorded interracial marriage in American history.[4][17]
January 1622: Parliament and James came to blows when the issue of foreign policy was discussed. James insisted that the Commons be concerned exclusively with domestic affairs, while the members of the Commons protested that they had the privilege of free speech within the Commons' walls.[23] Charles appeared to support his brother-in-law's cause, but, like his father, he considered the discussion of his marriage in the Commons impertinent and an infringement of his father's royal prerogative.[24] In January 1622, James dissolved the Parliament.[25][18]
January 1629: Charles opened the second session of the Parliament, which had been prorogued in June 1628, with a moderate speech on the tonnage and poundage issue.[65] Members of the House of Commons began to voice their opposition in light of the case of John Rolle, a Member of Parliament whose goods had been confiscated for failing to pay tonnage and poundage.[66] Many MPs viewed the imposition of the tax as a breach of the Petition of Right. When Charles ordered a parliamentary adjournment on 2 March,[67] members held the Speaker, Sir John Finch, down in his chair so that the dissolving of Parliament could be delayed long enough for resolutions against Catholicism, Arminianism and poundage and tonnage to be read out.[68] The lattermost resolution declared that anyone who paid tonnage or poundage not authorised by Parliament would "be reputed a betrayer of the liberties of England, and an enemy to the same", and, although the resolution was not formally passed, many members declared their approval. The provocation was too much for Charles, who dissolved Parliament and had nine parliamentary leaders, including John Eliot, imprisoned on the foot of the matter,[69] thereby turning these men into martyrs, and giving popular cause to their protest.[19]
January 16, 1629: Sir Richard Everard was the son of Sir Hugh Everard, the son of Sir Richard Everard, the son of Sir Richard Everard (created a baronet by Charles I in January 1629) by his wife, Joan Barrington, daughter of Sir Francis Barrington and his wife, Joan Cromwell, aunt of the Protector, Oliver Cromwell, and daughter of Sir Henry Cromwell, the son of Sir Richard Williams (eldest son of Morgan Williams by his wife, Catherine Cromwell, sister of Thomas Cromwell, the great Earl of Essex), who assumed at the desire of Henry VIII the surname of his uncle, Cromwell, and, through the influence of that once powerful relative himself and his family, obtained great wealth and station[20]
January 1640: By this stage Strafford, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland since January 1640,[108] had emerged as Charles's right hand man and together with Laud, pursued a policy of "Thorough" in support of absolute monarchy.[109] Although originally a major critic of the king, Strafford defected to royal service in 1628 (due in part to Buckingham's persuasion),[110] and had since emerged as the most capable of Charles's ministers. Having trained up a large army in Ireland in support of the king and weakened the authority of the Irish Parliament, particularly those members of parliament belonging to the Old English,[111] Strafford had been instrumental in obtaining an independent source of both royal revenue and forces within the three kingdoms.[21]
January 1647: He put himself into the hands of the Scottish Presbyterian army at Newark, and was taken northwards to Newcastle upon Tyne[165] while his "hosts" decided what to do with him. The Presbyterians finally arrived at an agreement with the English Parliament and delivered Charles to them in January 1647.[22]
January 1649: Charles was moved to Hurst Castle at the end of 1648, and thereafter to Windsor Castle. In January 1649, in response to Charles's defiance of Parliament even after defeat, and his encouraging the second Civil War while in captivity, the House of Commons passed an Act of Parliament creating a court for Charles's trial. After the first Civil War, the parliamentarians accepted the premise that the king, although wrong, had been able to justify his fight, and that he would still be entitled to limited powers as King under a new constitutional settlement. It was now felt that by provoking the second Civil War even while defeated and in captivity, Charles showed himself responsible for unjustifiable bloodshed. The secret treaty with the Scots was considered particularly unpardonable; "a more prodigious treason", said Cromwell, "than any that had been perfected before; because the former quarrel was that Englishmen might rule over one another; this to vassalise us to a foreign nation."[157] Cromwell had up to this point supported negotiations with the king, but now rejected further diplomacy.[157]
The idea of trying a king was a novel one; previous monarchs (Edward II, Richard II and Henry VI) had been overthrown and murdered by their successors, but had never been brought to trial as monarchs; although Lady Jane Grey had been tried for treason, she was treated as a usurper, not as a monarch. Charles was accused of treason against England by using his power to pursue his personal interest rather than the good of England.[174] The charge against Charles I stated that the king, "for accomplishment of such his designs, and for the protecting of himself and his adherents in his and their wicked practices, to the same ends hath traitorously and maliciously levied war against the present Parliament, and the people therein represented...", that the "wicked designs, wars, and evil practices of him, the said Charles Stuart, have been, and are carried on for the advancement and upholding of a personal interest of will, power, and pretended prerogative to himself and his family, against the public interest, common right, liberty, justice, and peace of the people of this nation."[174]
Estimated deaths from the first two English civil wars has been reported as 84,830 killed with estimates of another 100,000 dying from war-related disease;[175] this was in 1650 out of a population of only 5.1 million, or 3.6% of the population.[176] The indictment against the king therefore held him "guilty of all the treasons, murders, rapines, burnings, spoils, desolations, damages and mischiefs to this nation, acted and committed in the said wars, or occasioned thereby."[174][23]
January 1650: A key surviving statement of Cromwell's own views on the conquest of Ireland is his Declaration of the lord lieutenant of Ireland for the undeceiving of deluded and seduced people of January 1650.[71] In this he was scathing about Catholicism, saying that "I shall not, where I have the power... suffer the exercise of the Mass."[72] However, he also declared that: "as for the people, what thoughts they have in the matter of religion in their own breasts I cannot reach; but I shall think it my duty, if they walk honestly and peaceably, not to cause them in the least to suffer for the same."[72] Private soldiers who surrendered their arms "and shall live peaceably and honestly at their several homes, they shall be permitted so to do."[73] As with many incidents in Cromwell's career, there is debate about the extent of his sincerity in making these public statements: the Rump Parliament's later Act of Settlement of 1652 set out a much harsher policy of execution and confiscation of property of anyone who had supported the uprisings.
Former Taoiseach Bertie Ahern insisted that the portrait of Cromwell (‘that murdering bastard’) be taken down from a room in Westminster before he began talks with British prime minister Tony Blair and as recently as 1965 the Irish minister for lands explained that his preferred policies were necessary to, “undo the work of Cromwell”.[74][24]
many people began to question whether or not the body mutilated at Tyburn was in fact that of Cromwell. These doubts arose because it was assumed that between his death in September 1658 and the exhumation of January 1661, Cromwell’s body was buried and reburied in several places to protect it from vengeful royalists. The stories suggest that his bodily remains are buried in London, Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire or Yorkshire.[106] It continues to be questioned whether the body mutilated at Tyburn was in fact that of Oliver Cromwell.
The Cromwell vault was later used as a burial place for Charles II’s illegitimate descendants.[107] Afterwards, the head changed hands several times, including its sale in 1814 to Josiah Henry Wilkinson,[108][109] before eventually being buried in the grounds of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, in 1960.[110][111]
In Westminster Abbey, the site of Cromwell’s burial was marked during the 19th century by a floor stone in what is now the Air Force Chapel, reading THE BURIAL PLACE OF OLIVER CROMWELL 1658–1661.[112][25]
January 1661: Henrietta's return to France was delayed by the death from smallpox of the Princess of Orange. She finally left England in January 1661.[26]
January 1666: In January 1666, Shabbetai arrived in Istanbul and was arrested as a rebel and imprisoned in Gallipoli. The Sultan gave him the choice of conversion to Islam or death; Shabbetai chose Islam and was immediately released. [27]
January 1679: Later in 1678, Lord Danby was impeached by the House of Commons on the charge of high treason. Although much of the nation had sought war with Catholic France, Charles had secretly negotiated with Louis XIV, trying to reach an agreement under which England would remain neutral in return for money. Lord Danby had publicly professed that he was hostile to France, but had reservedly agreed to abide by Charles's wishes. Unfortunately for him, the House of Commons failed to view him as a reluctant participant in the scandal, instead believing that he was the author of the policy. To save Lord Danby from the impeachment trial, Charles dissolved the Cavalier Parliament in January 1679.[55][28]
January 16, 1754: Washington and Gist did not take the Turkey Foot Road in 1753
The route of Washington‘s October 31, 1753 to January 16, 1754 journey to Fort Leboeuf is
shown on the map (Figures 0432, 0437) that accompanied the January 17, 1754 ―Journal to the Ohio‖ that George Washington wrote from his trip notes. The purpose of the trip is described in the 1760 edition of Smollett‘s ―Continuation of the Complete History of England…‖ as follows:
The French having in a manner commenced hostilities against the English, and actually
built forts on the territories of the British allies at Niagara, and on the lake Erie…in the
mean time the French fortified themselves at leisure, and continued to harass the traders
belonging to the British settlements. Repeated complaints of these encroachments and
depredations being represented to Mr. Dinwiddie, governor of Virginia, he, towards thelatter end of this very year, sent major Washington with a letter to the commanding
officer of a fort which the French had built on the Riviere au Beuf, which falls into the
Ohio, not far from the lake Erie. In this letter Mr. Dinwiddie expressed his surprize that
the French should build forts and make settlements on the river Ohio, in the western part
of the colony of Virginia, belonging to the crown of Great Britain. He complained of
these encroachments, as well as of the injuries done to the subjects of Great Britain, in
open violation of the law of nations, .and of the treaties actually subsisting between the
two crowns. He desired to know by whose authority and instructions his Britannic
majesty‘s territories had been invaded; and required him to depart in peace without
further prosecuting a plan, which must interrupt the harmony and good understanding
which his majesty was desirous to continue and cultivate with the most Christian king.[29]
Wednesday, January 16, 1754:
George Washington arrives in Williamsburg Virginia to report back to Lt. Governor Robert Dinwiddie and to present him with a letter from the French commander of Fort Le Boeuf which said that the French refused to leave the Ohio River valley. [30]

January 16, 1861: The Crittenden Compromise, the last chance to keep North and South together, dies in the U.S. Senate.
Proposed by Senator John J. Crittenden of Kentucky, the compromise was a series of constitutional amendments. The amendments would continue the old Missouri Compromise provisions of 1820, which divided the west along the latitude of 36Ý 30". North of this line, slavery was prohibited. The Missouri Compromise was negated by the Compromise of 1850, which allowed a vote by territorial residents (popular sovereignty) to decide the issue of slavery. Other amendments protected slavery in the District of Columbia, forbade federal interference with the interstate slave trade, and compensated owners whose slaves escaped to the free states.
Essentially, the Crittenden Compromise sought to alleviate all concerns of the southern states. Four states had already left the Union when it was proposed, but Crittenden hoped the compromise would lure them back. Crittenden thought he could muster support from both South and North and avert either a split of the nation or a civil war. The major problem with the plan was that it called for a complete compromise by the Republicans with virtually no concession on the part of the South. The Republican Party formed in 1854 solely for the purpose of opposing the expansion of slavery into the western territories, particularly the areas north of the Missouri Compromise line. Just six years later, the party elected a president, Abraham Lincoln, over the complete opposition of the slave states. Crittenden was asking the Republicans to abandon their most key issues.
The vote was 25 against the compromise and 23 in favor of it. All 25 votes against it were cast by Republicans, and six senators from states that were in the process of seceding abstained. One Republican editorial insisted that the party "cannot be made to surrender the fruits of its recent victory." There would be no compromise; with the secession of states continuing, the country marched inexorably towards civil war. [40]
January 16, 1863: Arriving the 16th and expecting to move thence upon Little Rock, Arkansas; but after having reconnoitered and waited for three days, the expedition for some reason was abandonded.[41]
Sat. January 16, 1864

January 16th., 1865: We was off Hatteras. It was quite rough.[43][44]
January 16, 1919: The 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, prohibiting the "manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes," is ratified on this day in 1919 and becomes the law of the land.
The movement for the prohibition of alcohol began in the early 19th century, when Americans concerned about the adverse effects of drinking began forming temperance societies. By the late 19th century, these groups had become a powerful political force, campaigning on the state level and calling for total national abstinence. In December 1917, the 18th Amendment, also known as the Prohibition Amendment, was passed by Congress and sent to the states for ratification.
Prohibition took effect in January 1919. Nine months later, Congress passed the Volstead Act, or National Prohibition Act, over President Woodrow Wilson's veto. The Volstead Act provided for the enforcement of prohibition, including the creation of a special unit of the Treasury Department. Despite a vigorous effort by law-enforcement agencies, the Volstead Act failed to prevent the large-scale distribution of alcoholic beverages, and organized crime flourished in America. In 1933, the 21st Amendment to the Constitution was passed and ratified, repealing prohibition.[45]
January 16, 1942, one of the Enterprise aircraft, piloted by Harold F. Dixon, got lost on patrol, ran out of fuel, and ditched. Dixon and his two crewmates, Anthony J. Pastula and Gene Aldrich, survived for 34 days in a small rubber raft that had no stored food or water, before drifting ashore on the Pukapuka atoll 750 miles away. Dixon was awarded the Navy Cross for "extraordinary heroism, exceptional determination, resourcefulness, skilled seamanship, excellent judgment and highest quality of leadership."[2][3][46]
January 16, 1942: : Lowe's air operations officer, Captain Donald Duncan, had developed a proposal. North American B-25 medium bombers, with capacity for a ton of bombs and capable of flying 2000 miles with additional fuel tanks, could take off in the short distance of a carrier deck, attack Japanese cities, and continue on to land on friendly airfields in mainland China.[47]

January 16, 1944: Secretary of the Treasury Henry J. Morgenthau, Jr. presented a report entitled “Report to the Secretary in the Acquiescence of This government in the Murder of Jews” to President Roosevelt. Prepared by several non-Jewish technocrats working at the Treasury Department, “the document cited chapter and verse of the State Department’s ‘procrastination and willful failure to act…even willful attempts to prevent action from being taken to rescue Jews from Hitler.’” The report concluded ‘Unless remedial steps…are taken immediately…the government will have share for all time responsibility for this [Jewish] extermination.’ The authors of the report recommended that “refugee policy be removed from the State Department jurisdiction.”[51]
January 16, 1945: On this day, Adolf Hitler takes to his underground bunker, where he remains for 105 days until he commits suicide.
Hitler retired to his bunker after deciding to remain in Berlin for the last great siege of the war. Fifty-five feet under the chancellery (Hitler's headquarters as chancellor), the shelter contained 18 small rooms and was fully self-sufficient, with its own water and electrical supply. He left only rarely (once to decorate a squadron of Hitler Youth) and spent most of his time micromanaging what was left of German defenses and entertaining Nazi colleagues like Hermann Goering, Heinrich Himmler, and Joachim von Ribbentrop. Constantly at his side during this time were his companion, Eva Braun, and his Alsatian, Blondi. [52]

January 16, 1981: Final terms for release of American hostages negotiated.[59]
January 16, 1991: After five months of negotiations, sanctions and a military buildup by mainly U.S. forces in Saudi Arabia fail to dislodge Iraqi troops from Kuwait following a 1990 invasion, an aerial bombardment of Iraq led by the United States signals the start of the Persian Gulf War, January 16, 1991. Iraq mounts little defense against a ground offensive launched February 24; Kuwait is liberated and a cease fire is declared February 28. Peace terms require Iraq to rid itself of weapons of mass destruction, a failure to do so is cited as the reason for a U.S. led invasion in March 2003.[60]
January 16: 2008: A stone seal bearing the name of one of the families who acted as servants in the First Temple and then returned to Jerusalem after being exiled to Babylonia has been uncovered in an archeological excavation in Jerusalem's City of David, a prominent Israeli archeologist said today. The 2,500-year-old black stone seal, which has the name "Temech" engraved on it, was found earlier this week amid stratified debris in the excavation under way just outside the Old City walls near the Dung Gate, said archeologist Dr. Eilat Mazar, who is leading the dig. According to the Book of Nehemiah, the Temech family was servants of the First Temple and was sent into exile to Babylon following its destruction by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. The family was among those who later returned to Jerusalem, the Bible recounts. The seal, which was bought in Babylon and dates to 538-445 BCE, portrays a common and popular cultic scene, Mazar said. The 2.1 x 1.8-cm. elliptical seal is engraved with two bearded priests standing on either side of an incense altar with their hands raised forward in a position of worship. A crescent moon, the symbol of the chief Babylonian god Sin, appears on the top of the altar. Under this scene are three Hebrew letters spelling Temech, Mazar said. The Bible refers to the Temech family: "These are the children of the province that went up out of the captivity, of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one unto his city." [Nehemiah 7:6]... "The Nethinim [7:46]"... The children of Temech." [7:55]. The fact that this cultic scene relates to the Babylonian chief god seemed not to have disturbed the Jews who used it on their own seal, she added. The seal of one of the members of the Temech family was discovered just dozens of meters away from the Opel area, where the servants of the Temple, or "Nethinim," lived in the time of Nehemiah, Mazar said. "The seal of the Temech family gives us a direct connection between archeology and the biblical sources and serves as actual evidence of a family mentioned in the Bible," she said. "One cannot help being astonished by the credibility of the biblical source as seen by the archaeological find." The archeologist, who rose to international prominence for her recent excavation that may have uncovered King David's palace, most recently uncovered the remnants of a wall from Nehemiah. The dig is being sponsored by the Shalem Center, a Jerusalem research institute where Mazar serves as a senior fellow, and the City of David Foundation, which promotes Jewish settlement throughout east Jerusalem.[61]

[44][44] The trip to Savannah was one of the 24th Iowa’s most miserable experiences. The departure from Fortress Monroe had gone pleasantly the first day. But by January 16, the seas were very rough, and the Suwo-Nada often had her decks awash with breaking waves. Private Rigby, after depositing his breakfast over the rail, reported that there was no poetry in sea sickness. The temperate private was also put off by the adctions of a lieutenant of the 159th New York, who had taken too much of the “Old Joyful.” The officers antics were laughable, the whole affair was disgusting in Rigby’s opinion.
