April 11: 145: Birthdate of Septimius Severus, the “Roman emperor, who according to the Virtual Jewish Library Lucious Septimus Severus treated “Jews relatively well, allowing them to participate in public offices and be exempt from formalities contrary to Judaism. However, he did not allow the Jews to convert anyone.” [According to one source, this had to do with the fact that Severus was not really a Roman, but of Syrian-Phoenician stock, but I could find no further corroboration of this.][1]
150 A.D.: The provision that the text, after being read in Hebrew, should be interpreted to the people, may quite well reach back into the time of Jesus. The first evidence for the practice is in the Mishna, about 150 A.D.[2]
By 150 A.D., intellectually astute Christian leaders such as Justin Martyr, living in Rome, had championed the ideas of Paul and had begun to develop a systematic theological system built around his basic ideas.[3] Justyn Martyr reports on Sunday observance in Rome: The first direct and indisputable reference to any form of Sunday-observance by Christians is made it this time, and simultaneously and by the same man the no-Sabbath theory is propounded. Up to this time, the Scriptures had held the better part of the church to the Sabbath as taught in the
Decalogue. Polytheism and heathen philosophy ignored this idea, and openly proclaimed a type of no-lawism and absolute no-Sabbathism.
It was a part of the fruitage which came from the corrupting of the church and the gospel by admixture with heathen fancies and speculations. Under the sway of these loose ideas, Sunday, already a festival among the heathen, found gradual welcome at the hands of the semi Christianized leaders in the church, and final recognition by a still less Christianized form of civil government during the third and fourth centuries.
Justin Martyr stands as a prominent representative of this no-Sabbathism, and also as an apologist for Christianity, who sought to soften the fury of the heathen persecutors by claiming a similarity between Christianity and heathenism.
And on the day called Sunday, all who live in cities or in the country gather together to one place, and the memoirs of the apostles or the writings of the prophets are read, as long as time permits; then, when the reader has ceased, the president verbally instructs, and exhorts to the imitation of these good things.
Sunday is the day on which we all hold our common assembly, because it is the first day on which God, having wrought a change in the darkness and matter, made the world; and Jesus Christ our Saviour on the same day rose from the dead. For he was crucified on the day before that of Saturn (Saturday), and on the day after that of Saturn, which is the day of the Sun.[8] [4][5]
C. 150 SEFER OLAM RABBAH (Eretz Israel)
Was written by Jose b. Halafta. R' Jose, who was one of Rabbi Akiva's gifted students, lived in Sepphoris where he became the head of the Beit Din. His Sefer Olam Rabbah (The Great book of the World) was written in three parts: Part one - from creation to Moses; Part two - from Joshua to Zechariah; and Part three - from the murder of Zechariah until the Bar Kochba revolt. Although there are historical discrepancies (especially in the Persian period), it was of vast importance as a chronological framework of biblical history . [6]

April 11, 399: In the Roman Empire, a law is promulgated prohibiting sending emissaries to collect donations on behalf of the nasi. "That the Jews should know that we have delivered them from this iniquitous tribute."[10]
April 11, 491: Anastasius I begins his reign as the Byzantine Emperor. The reign of Anastasius marked the renewal of warfare with the Sassanid Empire. The Sassanid Empire was the name given to the Persian Empire of the day. This renewal of warfare would have a negative impact on the Jews who ruled the island of Yotabe also known as Tiran, which is in the straits of Tiran. The Jews of Yotabe played an instrumental role in the trade along the Red Sea and when the Byzantines sought to move East to take control of this trade and defeat the Sassanids, they would replace the Jewish leaders with their own people.[11]
496: Battle of Tolbiac between the Franks and the Alamanni,[12]
April 1117: As Matilda (25th great grandmother) later claimed to have been crowned twice, a ceremony may have taken place earlier in the year at Easter. To add further ambiguity to the title, Archbishop Bourdin was excommunicated by the pope in April 1117, before Pentecost but after Easter.[11] However, as she was the lawfully wedded wife and anointed queen at the time of her husband's coronation by Pope Paschal in 1111, her title held some legitimacy and official records addressed her as regina Romanorum.[11][13]
April 11, 1533: Archbishop Cranmer sent King Henry VIII ( 7th cousin 15x removed) a pro forma challenge to the validity of his marriage to Queen Katherine.[14]

April 11, 1643: Thomas Smythe6 [John Smythe5, Thomas Smythe4, John Smythe3, Richard2, William1] (b. 1599 / d. June 30, 1635) married Lady Barbara Sidney (b. November 28, 1599 / d. 1643), the daughter of Robert Sidney (Earl of Leicester) who is brother to Sir Philip Sidney and half-brother to Robert Dudley (Famous Earl of Leicester), on or about 1621.

April 11, 1689: William convened a Convention Parliament to decide how to handle James's flight. While the Parliament refused to depose him, they declared that James, having fled to France and dropped the Great Seal into the Thames, had effectively abdicated the throne, and that the throne had thereby become vacant.[113] To fill this vacancy, James's daughter Mary was declared Queen; she was to rule jointly with her husband William, who would be king. The Parliament of Scotland on April 11, 1689, declared James to have forfeited the throne.[114] The English Parliament passed a Bill of Rights that denounced James for abusing his power. The abuses charged to James included the suspension of the Test Acts, the prosecution of the Seven Bishops for merely petitioning the crown, the establishment of a standing army, and the imposition of cruel punishments.[115] The Bill also declared that henceforth, no Roman Catholic was permitted to ascend the English throne, nor could any English monarch marry a Roman Catholic.[116][19]
April 11, 1689: King William III and Queen Mary II (1689 - 1702)

House of: Orange
Ascended to the throne: February 13, 1689 aged 38 years
Crowned: April 11, 1689 at Westminster Abbey, when William was 38 and Mary was 26
Married: William married Mary, daughter of James II
Children: Three stillborn
Died: March 8, 1702 at Kensington Palace (William), aged 51 years, 3 months, and 21 days

Succeeded by: Mary's sister Anne
William was born in The Hague in the Netherlands. He was an only child and never knew his father William II who died of smallpox before
his birth. His mother was Mary eldest daughter of Charles I of England. William was appointed Stadtholder (chief magistrate) and
captain-general of the Dutch forces in 1672 to resist the French invasion of the Netherlands. He forced Louis XIV to make peace in 1678
and then concentrated on building up a European alliance against France. In 1677 he married his cousin Mary, eldest daughter of James,
Duke of York, the future James II. The marriage was intended to repair relations between England and The Netherlands following the
Anglo-Dutch wars. William was a successful soldier, but had several male favourites, was dour, asthmatic, 12 years older and several
inches shorter than his English wife Mary who was a reluctant bride.
In 1688 they were invited by the parliamentary opposition to Mary’s father James II to take the crown on England and were assured
of English support. William landed at Torbay on 5 November 1688, in 463 ships unopposed by the Royal Navy, and with an army of
14,000 troops which gathering local support grew to over 20,000 and advanced on London in what became known as ‘The Glorious
Revolution’. James fled to France, and in February 1689 William and his wife were crowned King William III and Queen Mary II.
Parliament passed the Bill of Rights which prevented Catholics for succeeding to the throne ensuring that Mary’s sister Anne would
become the next queen, and after the autocratic rules of Kings Charles II and his brother James II limited the powers of monarchs so
that they could neither pass laws nor levy taxes with parliamentary consent.
William and Mary were faced in 1689 with two Jacobite attempts to regain the throne. In Scotland government troops were defeated at
Killiekrankie by Scottish Jacobites but won shortly afterwards at Dunkeld, and James II landed in Ireland with French troops and laid
siege to Londonderrry. William’s navy relieved the siege and he led is army to victory at the Battle of the Boyne in July 1690. James fled
back to France. William returned several times to the Netherlands but found the English parliament reluctant to support his continuing war
with France. The Bank of England was founded in 1694 to control public expenditure. Williamsburg and the college of William and Mary in
Virginia, were named after the King and Queen in 1693.
Mary died of smallpox in 1694 and had no surviving children. William now ruled alone. The Peace of Rijswijk in 1697 marked the end of
the war with in Flanders with Louis XIV. William formed an alliance between England, Holland and Austria to prevent the union of the
French and Spanish crowns. This became known as the ‘War of Spanish Succession’. In 1701 following death of Prince William, the
only surviving son of Mary’s sister Anne, the Act of Settlement was passed ensuring succession of Protestant heirs of Sophie of
Hanover instead of the Catholic heirs of James. William died on 1702 of pneumonia following a broken collar bone after a fall
from his horse. Because his horse had reputedly stumbled on a mole’s burrow Jacobites toasted 'the little gentleman in the
black velvet waistcoat.'

Andrew was born in Middlesex County, NJ in either 1744, which agrees with his tombstone, or 1748 based on a record that he was baptized in Christ Church, Shrewsbury, Monmouth County, NJ, 3 Jan 1749, age seven months. He was the son of James and Sarah Dye.
His first wife was Sarah Minor, a daughter of Stephen and Athaliah (Updyke) Minor, who died in PA. Their children were: James, Stephen, John M., Andrew A., Frances, Benjamin, Samuel, Vincent, Rachel, William, and Jany.
His second wife was Ann Lamb Evans, who was born April 11, 1767, and died January 7, 1843.
Andrew and his family came to PA in 1771. On March 28, 1780 he was recommended as first lieutenant in the Yohogania Co. militia, but there is no further mention of his position, since by the fall of 1780, Andrew had resettled across the Monongahela on Big Whitely Creek where, where in May 1785, he had warranted to him a tract of land under the title "Sparrows Nest."
During the Revolution he was soldier in the Pennsylvania Line (Penna. Arch. Series VI Vol 3, pp 1367) for which service he received a pension.

April 11, 1732
"Hannah VANCE, daughter of John Vance, was born in the Valley of the Shenandoah in 1732. Her father was an early settler there, and was surveyor. One of his principle assistants was William Crawford, the youthful companion of Washington, and it was through this circumstance that the daughter and the young surveyor became acquainted and subsequently married...When Crawford, in 1767, fixed his home upon the banks of the Youghiogheny...Mrs. Crawford was no less widely known for that generous hospitality so dearly appreciated by pioneers in search of homes in the wilderness, and so of all the women on the frontiers of Western Penn., none were more highly respected and lovingly remembered. During the years when her brave husband was serving his country faithfully as an officer in the struggle for independence, Mrs. Crawford kept faithful watch and ward over the younger members of her family, and to her they were largely indebted for their education, and what measure of life they entered upon. ...The depredations of the Ohio Indians on the frontiers of Penn. called loudly for redress...the melancholy story of Crawford and his men live in kindly memory....none was more to be commiserated than the wife of the unfortunate commander. Hannah Vance Crawford had parted from her husband with a heavy heart. ..Her lonely cabin by the Youghiogheny was a house of mourning now...The widow was left in embarrassment as to property...estate was swept away, most of it by a flood of claims, some having no just foundation. ...the
State of Penn. afterwards reimbursed his estate. Mrs. Crawford
drew a pension from the State on account of the military service
of her husband; but Congress seems to have turned a deaf ear to
her application for relief, deeming, no doubt, the Penn. pittance
as ample. It is related by a grandson that when he was a little
boy his grandmother took him behind her on horseback, rode
across the Youghiogheny, turned to the left into the woods when
they both alighted by an old moss-covered white oak log. "Here,"
said the good old lady, as she sat down upon the log and cried as
though her hear would break, "here I parted with your
grandfather!" Mrs. Crawford lived at her old home where she had
resided nearly fifty years, until her death n 1817. The mournful
fate of her husband saddened her declining years, for like one
of old she would not be comforted, because he was not. Portions
of the above text appear verbatim in Egle's Penn. Women in the
Rev., pp.58-61. The following portions of that account do not
appear in the preceding version: William Crawford, son of

April 11, 1778
The diarists also recorded information in 1778 concerning Americans who were prisoners of war. The von Mirbach regimental order book entry for April 11, 1778 contains the following information. “A large number of rebels escaped from the sugar house prison [in New York] during the night, two of whom were captured by Major von Wilmowsky’s Company, which meets with General Robertson’s approval and he has ordered that a reward be paid to the troops who made the arrest. All the pickets and guards will be alert to watch for suspicious persons in order to perhaps catch some more of these deserters.”[25]
April 11, 1788: Alexander Vance held one of the 4 land warrants issued for Tyrone County (his was issued April 3, 1769, but not surveyed till April 11,1788). John Vance, Moses' father settled on a tract of land in 1766. John Vance (d. 1772) "who's ancestors came from Scotland and Ireland, was a native of Virginia". He came to PA with his sister's husband Col. William Crawford. John was already married to his wife Margaret White before he left VA. John died young leaving his wife Margaret to raise their 6 children, David, William, Moses, Jane, Elizabeth, and Maria. "Among the records of property is one where, under date of January 10, 1781, Margaret Vance, widow of John Vance, reported the list of her registered slaves, - one female, named Priscilla, aged twenty-seven years, and two males, Harry and Daniel, aged respectively seven and three years.
Priscilla and Harry afterwards became the property of the daughter, Jane Vance who was married to Benjamin Whalley. The son David (Vance) settled in Kentucky, and William (Vance) remained on the old place until middle life, when he died, never having married. Moses Vance also stayed upon the homestead, and when, in 1790, the land upon which his father's family had lived so long was warrented to Benjamin Whalley, two hundred and fifty acres of it was transferred to him and upon that he resided until his death.
Moses Vance's wife was Elizabeth, a daughter of Jacob Strickler, and they reared a family of seven sons and two daughters, John, Jacob, Samuel, Francis, William, Crawford, George, Margaret, and Eliza. John still lives on the old Gamer place, Jacob is in Lower Tyrone, and William's home is in Connellsville. Before leaving his native town, Tyrone, William held the office of justice of the peace for some years. George Vance removed to Illinois, and Samuel, Francis, Crawford, and Margaret are dead."

More about Jesse Smith:
Jesse was a veteran of the Revolutionary War. He entered the service as a resident of the Chester District, in South Carolina about May of 1780. After the war, he lived for about 3 years in the South Carolina District of Laurens and then moved to his old neighbourhood (where he was born) to live for one year before he moved to Franklin Co. Georgia where he received a land grant for service in the war. He died here on April 11, 1842.

April 11, 1862: Before the fall of Fort Pulaski, April 11, 1862, Robert E. Lee put in place a defense of Savannah that proved successful in blocking Federal advance on Savannah.[1] Confederate fort and naval gunnery dictated night time movement and construction by the besiegers. Federal preparations required four months.[2] In those four months, Lee developed a defense in depth. Behind Fort Pulaski on the Savannah River, Fort Jackson was improved, and two additional batteries covered river approaches.[67] In the face of the Union superiority in naval, artillery and infantry deployment, Lee was able to block any Federal advance on Savannah, and at the same time, well-trained Georgia troops were released in time to meet McClellan's Peninsula Campaign. The City of Savannah would not fall until Sherman's approach from the interior at the end of 1864.[4]
At first, the press spoke to the disappointment of losing Fort Pulaski. Surprised by the effectiveness of large caliber Parrott Rifles in their first deployment, it was widely speculated that only betrayal could have brought overnight surrender to a Third System Fort.[5] Lee was said to have failed to get effective support in the Savannah River from the three sidewheeler gunboats of the Georgia Navy. Although again blamed by the press for Confederate reverses, he was appointed military adviser to Confederate President Jefferson Davis, the former U.S. Secretary of War. While in Richmond, Lee was ridiculed as the 'King of Spades' for his excessive digging of trenches around the capitol. These trenches would later play a pivotal role in battles near the end of the war.[68][33]
April 11, 1863: When the fleet was ready to sail from Helena on the morning of April 11, 1863, the regiment could muster but little more than six hundred rank and file. [34]
April 11, 1863: On April 11 the 24th Iowa Infantry regiment proceeded to Milliken's Bend, thence to Perkins' landing and Hard Times, where it landed in time to take part in the battle of Port Gibson.
It was engaged in constant skirmishing from that time to the battle of Champion's hill, where it proved the equal of any regiment engaged. At one time it advanced unsupported charged a battery of 5 guns that was creating havoc, fairly ran over the men at the guns, and drove the supporting infantry in wild confusion, but was compelled by overwhelming numbers to fall back. Forty-three were killed, 40 mortally wounded and nearly 30 maimed for life, the total loss in killed, wounded and captured being 195 out of 417 engaged.
At Vicksburg it engaged in the active operations and after the surrender left to engage in the siege of Jackson. At the conclusion the regiment was transferred to the Department of the Gulf, and put in much of the fall and early winter in marches in various directions, without apparent aim or result. [35]

[36] The correct answer to Major Wright’s question is readily given. His was only one of a number of brave Iowa regiments which lost heavily in that ill-fated expedition, through utter incapacity of the Commading General, Nathaniel P. Banks. The verdict of all historians is unanimous with reference to the Red River Expedition and its commander. Both were stupendous failures. Major Wright displayed great skill and ability in being able to extricate his command from it perilous situation, with a loss of little less than the number engaged. While the loss was heavy, it is marvelous that, under the circumstances, it was not much greater. Had the other five companies of the regiment engaged, the loss would have been proportionately greater. It was therefore fortunate that they were on detached duty.
Upon the return of the regiment to Pleasant Hill, Major Wright was placed in command of the brigade and Captain Martin assumed command of the regiment. The Third and Fourth Divisions of the Thirteenth Corps, under command of General Cameron. (General Ransom having been severely wounded,) were ordered to take charge of the train and proceed to Grand Ecore, on Red River. Here the command arrived, on the evening of the 11th, and began the construction of fortifications; Lieutenant Colonel Wilson, of the Twenty…Iowa, Succeeding Major Wright as brigade commander.

[37] The regiment marched back with the retreating Army and arrived at Grand Ecore, Louisiana, fifty-two miles from the battlefield April 11.

[38] On April 11, the rear guard, Shaw’s battle-worn brigade, was severely harassed by Southern cavalry, and it was with weary relief that the end of the column finally filed into Grand Ecore that evening. (Scott, 32, Iowa, pp. 142-43 The hamlet was situated on a high bluff overlooking the river, (Beecher, 114th New York, p. 327.) and undoubtedly there were many who stared long and hard upstream in hopes of seeing a tell-tale wisp of smoke around the bend. Somewhere up there was Porter’s fleet-or perhaps by now it was Dick Taylor’s fleet. Red River Campaign by Ludlow H. Johnson, p. 206-207.
