[4]



June 12, 1616: The Virginia Company of London had long seen one of its primary goals as the conversion of Native Americans to Christianity. With the conversion of Pocahontas and her marriage to an Englishman–all of which helped bring an end to the First Anglo-Powhatan War–the company saw an opportunity to promote investment. The company decided to bring Pocahontas (4th great grandmother of the wife of the brother in law of the 1st great grandnephew of the husband of the 2nd cousin 9x removed) to England as a symbol of the tamed New World "savage" and the success of the Jamestown settlement.[47] In 1616, the Rolfes (4th great grandfather of the wife of the brother in law of the 1st great grandnephew of the husband of the 2nd cousin 9x removed traveled to England, arriving at the port of Plymouth on June 12.[48] They journeyed to London by coach, accompanied by a group of about eleven other Powhatans, including a holy man named Tomocomo.[49] John Smith was living in London at the time and while Pocahontas was in Plymouth, she learned he was still alive.[50] Smith did not meet Pocahontas, but wrote to Queen Anne (wife of the 6th cousin 12x removed), the wife of King James,(6th cousin 12x removed) urging that Pocahontas be treated with respect as a royal visitor. He suggested that if she were treated badly, her "present love to us and Christianity might turn to ... scorn and fury", and England might lose the chance to "rightly have a Kingdom by her means".[6][5]

June 12, 1626: A poorly conceived and executed naval expedition against Spain under the leadership of Buckingham went badly, and the House of Commons began proceedings for the impeachment of the duke.[53] Charles I (7th cousin 11x removed) nominated Buckingham as Chancellor of Cambridge University in a show of support[54] and on June 12, 1626 the House of Commons launched a direct protestation, stating, "We protest before your Majesty and the whole world that until this great person be removed from intermeddling with the great affairs of state, we are out of hope of any good success; and we do fear that any money we shall or can give will, through his misemployment, be turned rather to the hurt and prejudice of your kingdom." Despite Parliament's protests, however, Charles refused to dismiss his friend, dismissing Parliament instead.[55] [6]

June 12, 1676

Connecticut colonists, led by Captain John Talcott, defeat the Wampanoag Indians, led by King Philip, near Hadley.[7]



June 12, 1754

To have moved on to Gist’s had not been wise, but to have pressed on even farther to the Redstone storehouse was simply foolhardy, yet that was precisely what George Washington (Grandnephew of the wife of the 1st cousin 10x removed) ordered. They reached that place on June 12, their stores of lead and powder nearly depleted and with their remaining food sufficient for only another two days.

Almost at once had come word from Monakaduto’s scouts and some French deserters that strong reinforcements were expected momentarily at Fort Duquesne and soon a force would be marching from there to attack Washington. The young commander now ordered his men to turn right around and retreat to Gist’s, and there he ordered an entrenchment built encircling the little cabin and a storage shed which were the only structures of the so-called settlement. Only a limited number of men would be able to fire through the loopholed logs of the cabin and shed, so the remainder would have to make use of the entrenchment.

As they worked feverishly, a band of forty Delaware warriors arrived on the pretext of consulting with Washington, but the talks amounted to nothing and after several days the Delawares departed without notice in the middle of the night. There was no doubt in Washington’s mind that they had been spies for the French and immediately he sent a runner to Mackay with orders for the rest of the army to join him with the exception of a small garrison to be left at the Great Meadows to guard the French prisoners.[8]



Wednesday June 12, 1754

Nine French deserters arrive at Fort Necessity with the news that 100 more men await only a favorable opportunity to come over to the English side. They never did. The deserters also brought the not so pleasant news that the Delaware and Shawnee Indians were siding with the French. [9]







George Washington to Robert Dinwiddie, June 12, 1757.



June 12, 1757.



Hon’ble Sir: The enclosed is a return of the Subaltern Officers and Cadets in the Virginia Regiment, Set down according to their Seniority. I think it proper to send this to your Honor that you may be enabled to fill up the Commissions below, if you prefer, it, rather than sending blank ones to the Officers who have resigned their Commissions at different times, of which your Honor has been informed. Since I came up two only have followed their example: Namely, Lieutenant Williams. of Capt. Peachy’s Company; and Ensign Deane, of Cap. Bell’s. The latter was afraid of having his conduct enquired into, concerning an arbitrary exertion of Military power: and chose this method of avoiding an examination, as it was agreeable to all parties; and the Service, 1 very well knew, wou’d not suffer by his resignation. I gave him my consent accordingly; and hope it will meet with your Honors approbation. Capt. Gist is the only one of the reduced Captains who is agreed if he can regularly, to accept of a Lieutenancy. And he accepts of it upon condition that he is appointed the next oldest Lieutenant to Capt. McNeil whose first commission is dated the 4th. day of December (December 4) 1754; and his second, the 18th. of August (August 18), 1755. This I thought highly consistent with justice, and therefore promised my endeavours to have it so. Because these Captains wou’d otherwise have become the youngest Lieutenants; and might have been commanded by those Officers, whom theyonce had in their own companies as Subalterns.



There is no other method therefore, that I can see, to do them justice (and to preserve the proper Rank of the Subalterns) than to antedate their Commissions: It is attended with no expence nor inconvenience.



Being informed that the Money-Bill is passed, and that Troops will be raised by drafting the Militia; I shou’d be glad to receive timely Instructions, in whatmanner, andwhere I am to receive them. What privileges and immunties they are entitled to; and what Laws they are to be governed by, &c. I shou’d also be glad to know on what footing the Ranging Companies are to be established, and how they are to rank; compared with the Regiment? and whether (but this can not be) they are entitled to any of our Regimental clothes, &c. I recommended when I was in Williamsburgh, Sergeant Hughes (of Captn. Stewarts Company) for the Adjutantcy of the Regiment. Your Honor seemed to approve of it then, and will now, I hope, send him a Commission. We shou’d also be glad if our Chaplain was appointed, and that a Gentleman of sober, serious and religious deportment were chosen for this important Trust! Otherwise, we shou’d be better without. Enclosed your Honor will receive a copy of the proceedings of a Court of Enquiry, held upon Lt. Campbell, for not going according to Orders, with the Detachment to Carolina. Lt. Steenburgens case was pretty nearly the same with this and many other cases extraordinary in their nature, were transacted by Col. Stevens, while I was at Williamsburgh.



Mr. Boyd goes down for money. I am &c.



If your Honor is pleased to promote the Officers &c. according to their Seniority, and present Rank in the Regiment: They will then, if there are twelve Companies, stand as follows.




There remains according to this, a vacancy for an Ensign, to which I wou’d humbly recommend Mr.

Kirkpatrick; with the Office of Commissary of Musters. If Captn. McNeil should be promoted, Capt.

Gist will be Captn. Lt. in his room; and another Ensign will be wanted: In that case the oldest Ensign will be made Lt. and I would beg leave to speak in behalf of Mr. Thomas Rutherford for the vacancy of Ensign. He is a young man who, for his modesty and good behaviour gained a very good reputation as Lieutenant of one of the Ranging Companies on this quarter. I am etc.[10]



June 12, 1774: But notwithstanding the supposed immunity of the people east of the Monongahela from Indian inroads, the panic there was nearly as great and as general as on the west side of the river. "Nothing can be more surprising," said St. Clair, in a letter written on the 12th of June[11] (June 12) to Governor Penn, "than the dread the people are under, and it is truly shameful that so great a Body of People should have been driven from their Possessions without even the appearance of an Enemy, forcer­tain it is as yet no attempt has been made on what is understood to be Pennsylvania, nor any other mischief done than the killing the family on White Lick Creek, which I informed you of before, and which from every circumstance appears rather to have been private revenge than a national stroke. A fresh report of Indians being seen near Hanna's Town, and another party on Braddock's road, Set the People agoing again Yesterday. I immediately took horse and rose up to inquire into, and found it, if not totally groundless, at least very improbably, but it was impossible to persuade the People so, and I am certain I did not meet less than a hundred Families and I think two Thousand head of cattle in twenty miles riding. The People in this Valley will make a stand, but yester­day they are moved into this place [Ligonier], and I perceive are much in doubt what to do. Nothing in my Power to prevent their leaving the Country shall be omitted, but if they will go I suppose I must go with the stream. It is the strangest infatuation ever seized upon men, and if they go off now, as Harvest will soon be on, they must undoubtedly perish by Famine, for spring crop there will be little or none." [12]

June 12th. — Being requested to cause a sufficiency of canoes to be procured for the speedy crossing the Wounded and Men over the Ohio, I left the party early in the morning and arrived with my Waiter at 6 in the afternoon at the Mingoe Bottom. Here I found 6 canoes provided and several actually crossing. Besides a number of people collected with provisions & arms to relieve us: as they had been informed by 9 men, who were come in 4 days before us, and must have deserted us on the action of the 4th that we were all surrounded by the Indians, & must consequently fall a sacrifice, the expectation of ammunition from Fort Pitt, which was actually on the road, delayed their march.

I was also informed that another party of 40 had arrived some days since, continuing separated from the main Body since the night of the Retreat—[17]





DE PEYSTER TO BRIG. GEN. H. W. POWELL, COMMANDING AT NIAGARA.]

“DETROIT, June 12, 1782.

“Sir:— I have the pleasure to inform you that the rangers and confederate Indians from this post, have been successful in opposing the enemy at San-dusky. I herewith enclose letters and Indian speeches to that purpose. You ‘will see how they push me for more assistance, which it is not in my power to grant in the ruinous state the new fort is at present,— it having almost under­gone an inundation. If this weather continues I fear it will level our works. The oldest people here do not remember such a rainy season. We are much at a loss for tools to carry on the works, and I shall want iron both for this place and Michillimackinac. If there is any on the communication, I hope you will be pleased to order it to be forwarded. A’T S. DR PEYSTER.

“Brig. Gen’l POWELL.”[18]



June 12, 1782

Next morning, being June 12th, the Indian untied me, painted me black, and we set off for the Shawanese town, which he told me was somewhat less than forty miles from that place. We soon came to the spot where the Colonel had been burnt, as it was partly in our way; I saw his bones lying amongst the remains of the fire, almost burnt to ashes; I suppose that after he was dead they had laid his body on the fire.

The Indian told me that was my Big Captain, and gave the scalp hallos. He was on horseback and drove me before him. I pretended to this Indian I was ignorant of the death I was to die at the Shawanese towns, assumed as cheerful a countenance as possible, and asked him if we were not to live together as brothers in one house when we should get to the town? He seemed well pleased, and said yes. He then asked me if I cound make a wigwam?-I told him I could-he then seemed more friendly. We went that day as near as I can judge about 25 miles, the couse partly Southwest. The Indian told me we should next day come to the town, the sun being in such a direst, I attempted very often to untie myself, but the Indian was extremely vigilant and scarcely ever shut his eyes that night. About daybreak he got up and untied me; he next began to mend up the fire and as the gnats were trouble, some I asked him if I should made a smoke behind him, he said yes. I then took the end of a dogwood fork which had been burnt down to about 18 inches long; it was the longest stick AI could find, yet too small for the purpose I had in view; then I picked up another smaller stick and taking a coal of fire between them went behind him; then turning suddenly about, I struck him on the head with all the force I was master of ; which so stunned him that he fell forward with both his hands into the fire but seeing him recover and get up, I seized his gun while he ran off howling in a most fearful manner. I followed him with a determination to shoot him down, but pulling back the cock of the gun with too great violence, I believe I broke the main spring. I pursued him, however, about thiry yards, still endeavoring to fire the gun, but could not’ then going back to the fire I took his blanket, a pair of new moccasins, his hopes, powder horn, bullet bag (together with the gun), and marched off, directing my course toward the five o’clck mark; about half an hour before sunset I came to the plaines which I think are about sixteen miles wide. I laid me down in a thicket till dark, and then by the assistance of the North star made my was through them and got into the woods before morning.[19]





June 12, 1782

The third day McKee was in council, and afterwards was generally present. He spoke little, and did not ask any questions or speak to me at all. He lives about two miles out of twon, has house built of square logs with a shingle roop; he was dressed in gold laced clothes. I had seen him at the former town through which I passed.[20]



May 25-June 12, 1782: Crawford expedition - May 25, - June 12, 1782 .[21]



1786 - June 12 - Higgins' block-house was attacked by a large party of Indians and several of the inmates were severely wounded. On arrival of help from Hinkston and Harrison's Stations, the Indians fled without capturing the blockhouse. (History Bourbon etc., p. 34)

Harrison's Station, 2 miles from Higgins' Fort, was about 3 miles from where Cynthiana, Harrison County, Ky. now stands. (Collins, v. 2, p. 19)

1787 - James Garrard, John Edwards, Benjamin Harrison, Edward Lyne and Henry Lee represented Bourbon County at the Kentucky Convention held in Danville. (Drake etc., p. 137)

June 12, 1804: Joseph Whitehouse wrote that a man from Captain Stoddard's company was sent back to St. Louis with a trading party encountered coming down the river; no one else bothered to record the incident, and Whitehouse gives no name and no reason for his return. If Robertson was with the expedition until June 12, it is peculiar that he is not mentioned in the May 26 detachment order. If he was not the man from Stoddard's company sent back, then there are only two men known to have been from this company who are not mentioned in the journals after June 12, and if one of them was sent back, and Robertson had left some time earlier, then there exist problems in accounting for the six soldiers who were with the return party from Fort Mandan under Corporal Warfington in 1805.[22]

Private Ebenezer Tuttle (1773–?). Tuttle was born in Connecticut and joined the army in 1803. He was a member of Captain Amos Stoddard's artillery company. The only mention of him in the journals is in a detachment order of May 26, 1804. Possibly he was the unnamed man from Stoddard's company sent back on June 12, 1804; otherwise he was with the return party from Fort Mandan in 1805, as originally planned. Jackson (LLC), 1:237 n. 7; Clarke (MLCE), 62.[23]

June 12, 1805: Chouteau indicates that some of the Indians sent by Lewis are impatient to get back to their villages and some are sick (the "Mahas" and "Poncas"). The "Ottos, " Missouris and some Sioux have gone home but will return at the end of September. Those remaining with Chouteau are the great chiefs of the "Ottos" and "Missoury, " the chief "ricaras" and some Sioux. The Indians are worried about so long a journey (to Washington) in the warm season and prefer to travel in the fall. Chouteau will prepare for that and try to get some "Sakias" and "foxes" to come.

Thomas' daughter was married to the Missouri artist George Caleb Bingham. Being an artist and in need of a studio, Bingham, after conferring with a competent architect, had the building remodeled, adding a third floor some twenty feet high to the structure at a cost of $1800.00. After Bingham was selected treasure for the state of Missouri, a position which became vacant after the flight of Governor Claiborne Jackson and his cabinet to Southern Missouri, he moved with his family to Jefferson City. The building then remained unoccupied for a year and a half until taken over for use as a prison. [31]

June 12, 2012: A long-standing theory proposes that early humans hunted the woolly mammoth to extinction. On the other hand, some scientists believe a global shift toward freezing temperatures did the beasts in. But perhaps no single culprit should be blamed. A study detailed online June 12, 2012, in the journal Nature Communications claims that a combination of factorscontributed to the mammoth's downfall.[38]

•The tooth of a hominid, Australopithecus sediba, embedded in a rock that contains significant parts of a skeleton of this early human ancestor.
The tooth of a hominid, Australopithecus …

Two years ago, scientists announced they had discovered partial skeletons from a new species of human ancestor in a South African cave.

Now, more remains have turned up — in a large rock about 3.3 feet (1 meter) in diameter hiding in plain sight in a laboratory at the University of Witwatersrand in South Africa, the university announced today (June 12, 2012).

The rock was found almost three years ago, but the true value of what it contained didn't become apparent until early last month, according to the university.

The rock has been scanned in CT scanner, a device typically used for medical purposes.

"We have discovered parts of a jaw and critical aspects of the body, including what appear to be a complete femur (thigh bone), ribs, vertebrae and other important limb elements," Lee Berger, a paleoanthropologist at the university, said in a statement.

Berger lead the team that discovered this species of early human ancestor in the Malapa cave north of Johannesburg and named it Australopithecus sediba,

Plans are underway to allow the public to watch, either in person or via a live Internet video feed, as the fossils come out of the rock. A laboratory studio, designed in collaboration with the National Geographic Society, is expected to be built at the Maropeng Visitor Centre in the heart of the Cradle of Humanity World Heritage Site in South Africa, according to the announcement.

In 2010, Berger and his colleagues announced the discovery of a new species of human ancestor after finding two partial skeletons, an adult female and a juvenile male, estimated to be nearly 2 million years old. Given its combination of primitive and more modern human-like characteristics, he and colleagues have argued that this species, named Au. sebida, may be the ancestor to the genus Homo, to which modern humans, Homo sapiens, belong.

Other researchers have questioned this, and Au. sebida's position in the human family tree has remained uncertain.

"It's beautifully preserved and sometimes wonderfully completed," Donald Johanson, founding director of the Institute of Human Origins at Arizona State University said of the Au. sebida fossils removed from rock so far. "But at 1.8 or 1.9 million years old, it is really too late to evolve to be an ancestor to Homo."

This is because other fossils belonging to Homo have been also been dated to around this time, he explained.[39]

[33] In 1864 the basic daily ration for a Union soldier was (in ounces), 20- beef, 18-flour, 2.56-dry beans, 1.6-greeen coffee, 2.4-sugar, .64 salt, and smaller amounts of pepper, yeast powder, soap, candles, and vinegar. While campaigning, soldiers seldom obtained their full ration and many had to forage for subsistence.
