March 2, 1757: Burd cited Sergeant George Gotlieb for continuing duty beyond the date of his required enlistment. Not all of Burd's journal is included, but in that which is published, I find no further mention of George Gotlieb; however, on March 2, 1757, William Denny, Governor of Pensylvania sent notification to Col. Burd that he was to limit all enrollments to three-year enlistments and that he was not to enroll any men older than age thirty-five. Obviously, George was way over the age limit, so perhaps, this would have been the reason for end of his military duties.[1]
March 2, 1759
All Hallow's Parish
Eleanor born March 2, 1759 illegitimate dau of Ruth McKinnon[2].[3]
The original records of All Hallows Parish on microfilm at the Maryland State Archives, were then searched to better understand the birth information concerning Eleanor McKinnon. Page 51 of these records shows in part;
Illegitimate[4]
Eleanor the A daughter of Ruth McKinnon, Born March 2, 1759.[5]
Elanor McKinnon is born March 2, 1759.[6]
----------------
Other researchers have established that Eleanor lived with Daniel McKinnon and the other children during the following period. [7]
Since Eleanor apparently did not live with her mother and might not of even known her, it might explain why the only parental reference for Eleanor Howard was the father.
Nothing in the above information concerning the McKinnon family would be inconsistent with the assumption that Eleanor McKinnon and Eleanor Howard were in fact the same person.[8]
March 2, 1769:George Washington (grandnephew of the wife 1st cousin 10x removed) At home all day with the above company.[9]
March 2, 1770:
On March 2, in Boston, a British soldier, seeking a job, was told to “clean my shithouse.” Another riot broke out.[10]

Sherri, my lovely and knowledgeable girlfriend, leads the way on our tour of Boston’s Freedom Trail. (Note the red brick line that marks the entire Freedom Trail.) By coincidence our hotel, the Sheraton at Copley Plaza, turned out to have been in the original boundary of Roxbury, home of Sgt. Jason Winch who was at the Battle of Bunker Hill and the 8 month siege of Boston.
March 2, 1771: Thomas and Richard Penn, March 2, 1771, to Doctor Hugh Mercer, of Fredericksburg, Virginia, (the General Hugh Mercer, of the Revolution, who fell at Princeton. N. J., Jan. 3, 1771, for three tracts in Bullskin township, above the Chain Bridge ford, and near Braddock's road. General Mercer's executors sold them to Col. Isaac Meason.[12] (husband of the 5th great grandaunt.)
March 2, 1776: In advance of the Continental Army's occupation of Dorchester Heights, Massachusetts, General George Washington orders American artillery forces to begin bombarding Boston from their positions at Lechmere Point, northwest of the city center, on this day in 1776.
After two straight days of bombardment, American Brigadier General John Thomas slipped 2,000 troops, cannons and artillery into position just south of Boston at Dorchester Heights. The 56 cannon involved in the move were those taken at Ticonderoga, New York, by Lieutenant Colonel Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen with his Green Mountain Boys, which had then been transported to Boston by Colonel of Artillery Henry Knox the previous winter.
March 2-3, 1776: Battle of Nassau - March 2 - March 3, 1776 .[13]
March 2-3, 1776: Battle of the Rice Boats - March 2 - March 3, 1776.[14]
March 2, 1778: Referring again to Rev. Ege's material, he reports John and Eleanor's date of Marriage as March 2, 1778 and fails to mention the officially recorded marriage license date of February 13, 1778. No substantiation could be found to support the claimed marriage date of March 2, 1778. The only record of Eleanor Howard and John Dodson's marriage that could be verified was the issuance in Anne Arundel County of a "Marriage License" on February 13, 1778.[15]
March 2, 1778
John married March 2nd, 1778, Eleanor Howard, of Maryland, daughter of General Eager Howard, who was prominent in both the Revolutionary War, and probably also in the war of 1812. The Howard family of Maryland were prominent in that day, and have remained well knwn in Maryland history from colonial days. A prominent street in Baltimore City bears their name. The Howard family of this country and of England trace their linage to Lord Edward Howard, in the reign of Henry VIII, and also claim a kinship with George III.
In the will of aJohn Dodson, one of the earlier Maryland settlers, made in 1736, among the children therein named was Margaret and Eleanor. Margaret married a Howard.
In 1778, when John of Shrewsbury married Eleanor Howard, it can easily be a probable surmise that a daughter of the said Margaret Dodson Howard mentioned in the will of 1736, and named for her sister Eleanor, was the Eleanor Howard who became the wife of this later John Dodson, of Shrewsbury, Enhgland.[16]

March 2, 1821: Congress passed land relief act allowing adjustments in the terms of purchase of public lands; became law March 2.[19] The general land relief act of March 2 allowed the relinquishment of a portion of the purchase for the balance due, a sub stantial discount for prompt payment, remission of accrued interest, and an extension of time for final payment.[20]
March 2, 1824: U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Gibbons v. Ogden that the federal government had exclusive jurisdiction over interstate commerce.[21]
March 2, 1836 – Texas Declaration of Independence is approved by delegates meeting at Washington-on-the-Brazos.[22] The Republic of Texas declares its independence from Mexico as the Mexican army under President-General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna began waging a war of retribution. Sam Houston, President of the Provisional Government, and later Republic, of Texas signs a treaty with the Texas Cherokee guaranteeing them their lands, but the treaty was rejected by the Texas Senate the next year.[23]

It was called together again when Sheridan moved up the Valley, but was unable to assemble before Early’s defeat at Waynesboro (March 2, 1865).
March 2,1882: Roderick Maclean, a disgruntled poet apparently offended by Victoria's (18th cousin 4x removed) refusal to accept one of his poems,[154] shot at the Queen as her carriage left Windsor railway station. Two schoolboys from Eton College struck him with their umbrellas, until he was hustled away by a policeman.[155] Victoria was outraged when he was found not guilty by reason of insanity,[156] but was so pleased by the many expressions of loyalty after the attack that she said it was "worth being shot at—to see how much one is loved".[157][27]
March 2, 1890: John Sevier Rowell (b. March 2, 1890 in AL / d. abt. 1894 in GA).[28]

Mississippi second only to Iowa in KKK groups per capita
On March 2, 2010, in racism, by Jerry Mitchell
Mississippi is second only to Iowa in the number of Ku Klux Klan groups per capita, according to a report released today by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
klan1-150x150
The rise in Klan membership in Mississippi coincides with what the center describes as an explosive growth over the past year in extremist organizations across the U.S. Anti-government groups saw a 244 percent increase.
Iowa, with a population of 3 million, has a dozen Klan groups. Mississippi, with a population of 2.9 million, has nine Klan groups, tied with Louisiana, which has 4.4 million.
Texas has the most with 26 groups, but it has a population more than eight times larger than Mississippi’s. Tennessee has 15 groups with a population of 6.2 million.
In addition to the Klan, the center identified Mississippi as having 10 white nationalist groups, six “patriot groups,” one racist skinhead group and one neo-Nazi group.
Back in the 1960s, Mississippi was a safe haven for the Klan, with some estimates putting membership at more than 10,000. The Klan became a powerful political force as well with their members voting as a bloc.
The Klan also became a violent force. The FBI blamed the White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan for at least 10 killings in Mississippi, including the 1964 killings of three civil rights workers, commonly known as the Mississippi Burning case.
By the late 1980s, the Klan had all but died in Mississippi. States such as Indiana, Pennsylvania and even California typically boasted more Klan groups than the Magnolia State.
Over the past decade, however, the Klan and other white supremacist groups have made a resurgence in Mississippi.
Barrett1-150x150
Richard Barrett
After the University of Mississippi chancellor moved last fall to get rid of the chant during football games, “The South Will Rise Again,” white supremacist Richard Barrett, who heads the Nationalist Movement, appeared on the Ole Miss campus, showing his support for the chant.
On November 21, a dozen members of the Mississippi White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan (many in their teens and early 20s) marched on campus. About 250 people gathered to protest the presence of the Klansmen.
As the Klansmen left, they chanted ”the South will rise again.”[37]

[2] The entry for Eleanor provides the mother, Ruth McKinnon, but fails to specify the father and when the entry is read in the context of the entries for Anne and Ruth clearly establish that the father was not Daniel McKinnon. Interestingly, Rev. Eg's description of Eleanor's pedigree never specifies a mother and only claims that she was the daughter of a male Howard. Additionally, nothing can be found in the available records directly linking Eleanor McKinnon with any father. (http://washburnhill.freehomepage.com/custom3.html)
