January 7, 1536: Catherine of Aragon, (wife of the 7th cousin 15x removed) the wife of King Henry VIII of England (7th cousin 15x removed), passed away. She was the daughter of the two monarchs who created the Spanish Inquisition and drove the Jews out of Spain. The Spanish monarchs would consent to their daughter’s marriage if Henry’s father would promise that no Jews would ever live in England. Ironically, it was Catherine’s inability to provide a male heir that led to the England’s break with the Catholic Church which would play in an indirect positive role in the return of the Jews to England.[1]

January 7th 1558: - Calais, last English possession in France, retaken by French[2]

January 7, 1569: The Bishop of Ross, Lord Herries, and the Abbot of Kilwinning, admitted to the presence of Queen Elizabeth (8th cousin 14x removed) and her council, again accuse Murray and his adherents of the murder of Darnley,(husband of the 9th cousin 13x removed) and insist, in the name of Mary, on having an exhibition and copies of the letters and other documents attributed to her by her enemies. [3]



January 7, 1571: To THE Archbishop of Glasgow. [4]



The Queen of England shows by her actions that she is resolved rather to maintain my rebels and my kingdom in the melancholy state in which it is, than to yield to any agreement, or set me at liberty, whatsoever she has said to the King by his ambassador. And if by force or by fear she comes not to reason, we can only expect at her hands dissimulation and mockery. The Queen Mother has written to me that the King is determined to assist me, if the said Queen of England does not keep her promise to him ; and therefore do not cease to demand the said assistance, and do so much at least that some preparations for sending into Scotland should be apparent, and that he no longer allows himself to procrastinate on the word of the Queen of England. For so long as she sees that the King tarries upon that, she will spin matters out, and make use of the time, as she has been accustomed to do. Represent the conduct of the Earl of Lennox, who has neither forces nor means but such as she gives him ; and who only plays the part which she makes him perform, as Randolph is always with him, without whose counsel and advice he dares undertake nothing. You may have heard that at their late pretended parliament the Laird of Grange would not deliver to them the crown or the sceptre. Since that he is in such a state of hosttility with them, that if he once felt sure of support, however small it might be, he would render me signal service. Besides, entreat the King to inform the Queen of England that, from the accounts which he has received of my indisposition and the treatment which I receive, he desires to send and keep resident henceforward near me some person of distinction who might give him an account of it, and relieve him from the doubt, which by the said accounts and other like reports

he might entertain, contrary to the expectation (as he believes) and wish of the said Queen of England. This, perhaps, would make her ashamed of boasting so impudently as she does, of the treatment which I receive at her hands; which she persuades the people of this country, even Catholics, is the best and most friendly in the world ; and yet there is not a single rudeness nor indignity which I have not already experienced at their hands. Which is the reason why she does not wish to set me at liberty. This would also make her expedite the arrangement by the suspicion, which she would instantly have, that the chief reason why the King wished to send the said person hither was to interpose in the said arrangement, and to undo it or traverse her designs. And therefore, as soon as he can do so, it appears to me that it will be good for him to make the said proposal by demanding a passport for the person whom he intends to send.



Written at Sheffield, the 7th January.



The Catholics have been in great distress on account of my illness ; and the fear which they have of losing me will, if he sends some assistance to Scotland, cause them to take the opportunity of throwing themselves on that side. They have no hope of recovery except from God and me. I have been much relieved by the presents which Kaulet has brought to me, which have come very seasonably ; for in place of them I must have given money, and the cost would have been double at the least. I wish much that twice the amount might be sent again to me, for it is of great use to me. I pray you to see that a supply of money is obtained for me, — as much as possible. The stay which the physicians have made here, now a month past, and the defraying of the commissioners,who are at my expense, will run off with a great deal, and in whatever direction matters turn, I shall have enough to do

with it, whether the arrangement is made or not. If Lord Seton is still in Flanders, write to him promptly that I beg him to hasten the transmission of the money to Scotland, for the Castle has need of it.*[5] I enclose herein a note which you will convey to him, and I leave to

you to inform him of what concerns me and my affairs.



Postscript hy Raulet. — I have somehow heard that there is a disagreement between the lawyer and the solicitor, but I have not yet learned on which side it is, or what is the point. I clearly see that the Bishop of Ross has now a grudge towards the said solicitor, whom I believe he has endeavoured to injure; but what moves him is only the

intimacy which that gentleman has with you. I wish for many reasons that he were with his master, to whom I beg you to persuade him to repair if possible. I would that Mr. Beton, your brother, would make haste to come, either with the intention of remaining, or travelling with the opportunity of dispatches.



Your humble and affectionate servant. [6]

January 7, 1610 Galileo observed with his telescope what he described at the time as "three fixed stars, totally invisible[84] by their smallness", all close to Jupiter, and lying on a straight line through it.[85] Observations on subsequent nights showed that the positions of these "stars" relative to Jupiter were changing in a way that would have been inexplicable if they had really been fixed stars[9]

No. 3.—CRAWFORD (6th great grandfather) TO WASHINGTON.



SPRING GARDEN,[16] January 7, 1769.[17]



Sir:—By Valentine Crawford I received your letter dated November 13th,[18] and the inclosed twenty pounds Pennsylvania money. I wrote you by Mr. Harrison.[19] He told me he gave Mrs. Washington my letter, as you were not at home. At my return from Frederick, [20] over the mountain, the surveyor was running land out for such as were ready to pay him. Immediately I got him to run out your land. I have done it as if for myself, taking all the good land, and leaving all that is sorry, only some joining the mill-seat. It came out in locations as other land, but was all run out in one body. The surveyor will be paid for every three hundred acres, notwithstanding he run the whole in one body. He says it is the rule of the office. There are in each survey three hundred and thirty-two and three hundred and thirty-three acres; so I had good measure.

The land you were to have of my brother, John Stephenson,[21] when the surveyor came was located. He will lose all that is good, without he can purchase the man’s right. This he intends to do, if he can, hut I doubt it, as people from Pennsylvania hold land high.

You mentioned that the lines of’ the colonies would be extended soon, or, at least, that such a plan was on foot,[22] and that the officers would obtain their lands agreeable to His Majesty’s proclamation.[23] I am at a loss where they will lay it oft’ (as the land to the southward of Penn’s line[24] is very sorry, except in some spots), unless it is laid off as you, in a letter, before wrote me.

I have not been down on any part of the Little Kanawha,[25] but have conversed with numbers that have been from the head to the mouth. They tell me there are no large bodies of good land on it. It is chiefly mountains and broken land, with here and there a very good piece.

In a few days, I intend going up the Monongahela, to run out some land there. The draft I shall bring down with me to your house, about the first or middle of Febru­ary. I should have gone before, but I was stopped by the road I had to finish. I have found out a piece or two more of good land in Penn’s lines, which you may have. I have taken them good for you, if you choose them. I could have taken more if I. had thought they would have been lessened, as it is from a half-penny to a penny an acre.

As soon as I return from up the river, I am to go over the Monongahela to look at some land two men have found on. A stream called Ten-mile creek; [26] and, if I like the land, you shall have any of it you may want. I shall he better able to satisfy you when I see you. I am, etc.

P. S.—by the commanding officer at Fort Pitt, there is a negro woman sent me who was taken, during the last war, [27] from a place called Draper’s Meadows, [28] then the property of one Major Winston.[29] He is since dead. There were twenty-two taken in all from him, but several got away and reached their master again. I understand the colony paid for theni; if so, she now belongs to Virginia. If it is not too much trouble for you, I should be obliged to you to in­quire and find out the truth of the matter. I wish you to purchase hei’ of’ the colony for me, provided they will wait a time for the money. It would be doing me a great favor. There are three more, I believe, I can get from the Indians with some trouble. The wench I have, ran away from them, amid came to Fort Pitt. I am afraid there are some schem­ing already to purchase her.[30]



January 7, 1773

January 7, 1774: In Prague, Empress Maria Theresa banished the Jews. A few weeks earlier, Frederick the Great took Prague in the Wars of Succession and the populace ransacked the ghetto. He soon left and the Croats returned. They accused the Jews of treason and again their quarters were sacked. At this point and then again January 7, Empress Maria Theresa banished all the Jews of Bohemia and Moravia. Due to the protests of the Jews and the governments of England and Holland, the decree was dropped everywhere but in Prague. To put this in perspective, this happened five months before the outbreak of the American Revolution. In other words, while the Old World was continuing to find ways to persecute Jews, the New World was about to enjoy a new birth of freedom that would include the Jews.[33]



January 7, 1775: For the second time in two months, Empress Maria Theresa banished all the Jews of Bohemia and Moravia.[34]



January 7, 1777: Valentine Crawford[35] dies of pneumonia. He was a Colonel in the Virginia Militia December, 1776, where he served as Wagon Master General. He also acted as secretary and assistant to George Washington. He died January 7, 1777 in

Fayette County, Pennsylvania. While returning home from a battle with Indians, he fell through thin ice and drowned (some sources say he died of pneumonia after falling through ice). His brother, William, recovered his body and brought it home

for burial near his mother, Honoria Grimes Crawford. He is buried at Bullskin Creek in Shepardstown, West Virginia.

Colonel Valentine Crawford is the compilers 6th great granduncle

Moore to Irvine

PHILADELPHIA, January 7, 1782.



Sir:— I wrote you a few days since by Messrs. Proctor and Meason, two of our assembly men, from Westmoreland county, who had an order on the treasurer of Lancaster couhty for five hundred pounds specie to be delivered you for the pur­pose of recruiting. From their information and the gentle­men of the council for the western frontiers,[38] we are in hopes you will be able to get a considerable number of recruits. As it is difficult for want of opportunities, as well as hazardous, to send you money hence, if you can get any persons in your parts to advance specie for drafts on council, for the purpose of recruiting, you may be assured of punctuality in honoring them, having laid by in the treasury, separate and apart front all monies, a considerable sum for the purpose of recruiting only. We have begun this business here under the superin­tendence of Colonel [Richard] Humpton [of the sixth Penn­sylvania regiment], who has sent recruiting parties into most of the counties of the state. Our line[39] is very thin. General Washington is very desirous of having a respectable army in. tile field by the first of March. I hope we shall not be behind-hand with our sister states in their complement of men, and that every exertion will be used for that purpose.[40]

January 7, 1857: The tenure of Jones as sheriff of Douglas County came to an end, and he left Kansas Territory. Jones resigned as sheriff of Douglas County in a heated dispute with the territorial governor. The source of the disagreement was the governor's denial of the sheriff's request for "balls and chains" for use on incarcerated free-state men at Lecompton. Jones clearly wanted to impose harsh corporal punishment on his adversaries, and failing to win gubernatorial support for such measures, Jones chose resignation over a more lenient, conciliatory policy. Jones quickly left the territory, moving to New Mexico, where in September 1858 he accepted an appointment as collector of customs at Paso del Norte and eventually purchased a ranch near Mesilla, where he died some years later.

[11] ON This Day in America by John Wagman.


[12] The earliest recorded ―road‖ heading west from ―Wills Creek‖ was the circa 1749 Twightwee Indian road to Pickawillany at or near the present town of Piqua, Ohio. By 1753, branches of a second road, financed by the Ohio Company, went to the present-day areas of Brownsville and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. At least part of the Ohio Company road was laid out and marked by the Indian Nemacolin13. The Ohio Company road was repaired by Washington‘s forces in 1754, and further improved by Braddock‘s forces in 1755. Braddock‘s road and the new Turkey Foot Road became the principal routes of travel west from Cumberland. A variety of literature reports, without supporting documentary evidence, that Nemacolin and Thomas Cresap

blazed and cleared the Ohio Company road in 1749. Such statements are probably the conflation of two facts: (1)

According to the Ohio Company‘s ―second petition‖, their land charter was dated March 18, 1749, and (2)

According to the biographer of Thomas‘s son Michael Cresap, the Ohio Company employed Nemacolin to mark and

lay out the road. The earliest actual evidence of a completed road that we have seen was written on November 22,

1752. In Search For Turkey Foot Road, Page 6.

[16] Spring Garden was one of the names by which Crawford designated his home upon the Youghiogheny.


[17]Colonel William Crawford brought his family from Virginia to Stewarts Crossing, the site of New Haven, Pa., in 1769. He had spent several years in preparing a place for them, which he called “Spring Garden”.


[18] The letter here referred to has not been preserved. Crawford’s re­ply, however, is so full as probably to indicate all its important points.


[19] 4 Lawrence Harrison. His son, William, married Sarah, one of the daughters of Crawford.


[20] 5 By “Frederick” is meant Frederick county, Virginia, the former home of Crawford. His residence was upon Bullskin creek, in what was afterward Berkeley County, Virginia— now, Jefferson County, West Virginia.


[21] A half-brother of Crawford. He had five half-brothers, sons of Richard Stephenson: John, Hugh, Richard, James, and Marcus.


[22] The lines of Virginia were greatly exceeded after the treaty, in 1768, at Fort Stanwix; in the end, to the Mississippi. At least, such was the extent she claimed. She afterward relinquished her sover­einty over all territory west of the Ohio and Big Sandy, and the Cum­berland mountains.


[23] At the commencement of the Seven Years’ War, in 1754, Governor Dinwiddie, of Virginia, to stimulate enlistments, issued a proclamation, granting two hundred thousand acres of land on the Ohio to officers and soldiers. This grant was afterward confirmed by the king. As an officer in that war, Washington was entitled to his share of land.


[24] By “Penn’s line” is meant tile southern boundary line of Pennsylvania, west of the Alleghanies.


[25] Little Kanawha is a river of West Virginia. It is a tributary of the Ohio, entering that stream on tile left, at Parkersburgh, one hundred and ninety miles below Pittsburgh.


[26] Ten-mile creek empties into the Monongahela on tile left, at Millsboro, Washington county, Pennsylvania.


[27] Pontiac’s War of 1763—’64.


[28] Afterward Smithfield, Montgomery county, Va., the home of the Preston family.


[29] William Winston, Uncle of Patrick Henry.


[30] The Washington Crawford Letters, by C. W. Butterfield, 1877


[31] Diary of David McClure, Doctor of Divinity 1748-1820 with notes by Franklin B. Dexter, M.A. 1899. pg.107.


[32] Since Rev. McClure mentions Frances Bradford as John Crawford’s first wife, the author is inclined to believe that John was married to his second wife at that time. Rev. McClure judged him to be married there, but John was really married in 1764 and this takes him back to Virginia. Effie Grimes was the second wife to John Crawford and it appears that second marriage took place before 1773, the year of Rev. McClure’s arrival. This being the case, Lt. John Crawford (son of Col. William and Hannah Crawford), was married previously to Frances Bradford, long enough to have two Sons (Moses and Richard), loss of his wife Frances, and be married again to Effie Grimes; all before Rev. David McClure’s arrival to that locality in 1773. (See John Crawford’s marriage date in the records of the old Bradford Bible). John Minter married Elizabeth, the daughter of Valentine Crawford, and Dr. Knight married Polly, daughter of Richard Stephenson, Jr. (half—brother to William and Valentine Crawford). Since Rev. McClure was not present when these marriages took place, he would be justified in using the term, ‘evidence points’ to a good advantage. From River Clyde to Tymochtee and Col. William Crawford pg. 58-59.

[35] Valentine was supposed to be two years younger than his brother William, and then must have been born c. 1724, not 1734 at most as most sources have. He died Jan 7, 1777. He was a Colonel in the Virginia Militia. He married Sarah Morgan, daughter of David Morgan. They had nine children. (Ancestors of Forrest Roger Garnett, Page 908.9)
