The proprietors instructed the settlers of "the day of our ships arrival . . . shall be yearly and perpetually kept as a day of Thanksgiving." The Margaret landed her passengers at Berkeley Hundred on December 4, 1619. The settlers did indeed celebrate a day of "Thanksgiving", establishing the tradition a year and 17 days before the Pilgrims arrived aboard the Mayflower at Plymouth, Massachusetts to establish their Thanksgiving Day in 1620.[1][12]

Berkeley Plantation, one of the first great estates in America, comprises about 1,000 acres (400 ha) on the banks of the James River on State Route 5 in Charles City County, Virginia. Berkeley Plantation was originally called Berkeley Hundred and named after the Berkeley Company of England. Benjamin Harrison IV built on the estate what is believed to be the oldest three-story brick mansion in Virginia and is the ancestral home to two Presidents of the United States: William Henry Harrison, his grandson, and Benjamin Harrison his great-great-grandson.[4][5]
Among the many American "firsts" that occurred at Berkeley Plantation are:
•The first official Thanksgiving: December 4, 1619
•The first bourbon whiskey distilled: 1621, by George Thorpe, an Episcopal priest.[6]
•First time Army bugle call "Taps" played: July 1862, by bugler Oliver W. Norton; the melody was written at Harrison's Landing, the plantation's old wharf, by Norton and then General Daniel Butterfield.[7]
History
On December 4, 1619, a group of 38 English settlers arrived at Berkeley Hundred, about 8,000 acres (32 km2) on the north bank of the James River near Herring Creek in an area then known as Charles Cittie (sic). It was about 20 miles upstream from Jamestown, where the first permanent settlement of the Colony of Virginia was established on May 14, 1607.
The group's charter required that the day of arrival (December 4, 1619) be observed yearly as a "day of thanksgiving" to God. On that first day, Captain John Woodleaf held the service of thanksgiving. The Charter of Berkeley Plantation specified the thanksgiving service: "Wee ordaine that the day of our ships arrival at the place assigned for plantacon in the land of Virginia shall be yearly and perpetually keept holy as a day of thanksgiving to Almighty God."[8]
During the Indian Massacre of 1622, nine of the settlers at Berkeley Hundred were killed, as well as about a third of the entire population of the Virginia Colony. The Berkeley Hundred site and other outlying locations were abandoned as the colonists withdrew to Jamestown and other more secure points.
After several years, the site became Berkeley Plantation and was long the traditional home of the Harrison family, one of the First Families of Virginia. In 1634, it became part of the first eight shires of Virginia, as Charles City County, one of the oldest in the United States, and is located along Virginia State Route 5, which runs parallel to the river's northern borders past sites of many of the James River Plantations between the colonial capital city of Williamsburg (now the site of Colonial Williamsburg) and the capital of the Commonwealth of Virginia at Richmond.
Using bricks fired on the Berkeley plantation, Benjamin Harrison IV built a Georgian-style three-story brick mansion on a hill overlooking the James River in 1726.[9] Berkeley would later earn a distinction shared only with Peacefield in Quincy, Massachusetts as the ancestral home for two United States Presidents.[4] Harrison's son, Benjamin Harrison V, a signer of the American Declaration of Independence and a Governor of Virginia, was born at Berkeley Plantation, as was his son William Henry Harrison, a war hero in the Battle of Tippecanoe, governor of Indiana Territory, and ninth President of the United States.
During the American Civil War, Union troops occupied Berkeley Plantation, and President Abraham Lincoln twice visited there in the summer of 1862 to confer with Gen. George B. McClellan. The Harrisons were not able to regain possession of the plantation after the war, and it passed through several owners' hands and fell into disrepair.[7]
Restoration
In 1907, Berkeley Plantation was bought by John Jamieson, a Scotsman who had served as a drummer boy in the Union army during the Civil War. His son, Malcolm Jamieson (who bought out the interests of other heirs after John's death), and Malcolm's wife, Grace, restored the manor, which had been in deteriorating condition.[7] Today the house attracts visitors from the United States and other parts of the world.
The architecture is original, and the house has been filled with antique furniture and furnishings that date from the period when it was built. The grounds, too, have been restored, and cuttings from the boxwood gardens are available as living souvenirs for its visitors.
Exterior
The main house is the centerpiece of ten acres of formal gardens and parterres. The house is surrounded by boxwood hedges forming allées. Large pillars with decorative spires support large hinged gates.
The house is constructed of red brick with thin mortar joints. The two story building's main entrance is in the center of the house, with two symmetrical windows on either side and a central window directly above the door. These windows are double sashed with 12 panes per sash. An entablature with dentil moldings support the gabled roof, which is pierced by three dormer windows and two large brick chimneys.[13]

In the end of 1800 the company of light infantry increased to battalion of chasseurs.
All men were excellent fighters, select marchers and killers, but the whole Guard was far from solid,
and its morale and loyalty were still uncertain things. Some were uncombed Revolutionary zealots. [32]

About 1801 Joseph Vance moved into Ohio from May’s Lick, Kentucky, finally settling on a farm two and a half miles north of Urbana.
Under pioneer conditions his son Joseph had very little opportunity for an education, a lack which he felt keenly throughout his career. As a boy of fifteen he proved his resourcefulness and courage by saving money from his wages as a wood cutter at the May’s Lick salt works, buying a team of oxen, and peddling salt to the wilderness settlements.[36]

Russia’s one million Jews hailed Alexander I as a liberator, when he ascended the throne in 1801. He granted amnesty to political prisoners, abolished torture, permitted anyone who wished to set his serfs free. Jews were allowed to pursue any occupations they desired. They could attend Russian schools and universities, even settle in Moscow and in greater Russia. Most of these liberties were on paper only.[38]
1801: In the particular context of the ten tribes, anxieties were fueled and driven not only by scriptural parameters that mandated all humans to be of Adamite and Noahid descedent, but more acutely by the restorative promise embodied in Hope of Israel. ”There is a strong argument in favor of the Indians being converted to Christianity, their being descended from the Jews.”
1801
Irish-American trader Philip Nolan, leader of several earlier expeditions to Spanish territory, enters northeast Texas to hunt wild horses. Spanish troops are sent from Nacogdoches to capture Nolan and his followers, and Nolan is killed in the ensuing battle.

December 4, 1837: FROM - HISTORY OF METHODISM IN ARKANSAS -
Edmund R. HARRISON was the son of R. L. and Mildred L. HARRISON; was born December 4, 1837, and died July 31, 1883. His father was a preacher before him He was converted in his youth in the year 1851, under the ministry of Dr. A. R. Winfield He was licensed to preach in the year 1860, and was ordained Deacon in 1864 and Elder in 1866. He was married to Miss A. C. HARSHAW at Hickory Plains, Ark., October 3, 1866. At the session of the Little Rock Conference in 1861, he was admitted into the traveling connection, and traveled in the Conference till the fall of 1866, when he located. He remained in the local ranks thirteen years, and in 1880 was readmitted into the Little Rock Conference and transferred to the Arkansas Conference, and was appointed to the Point Remove Circuit, which he served one year. At the next Conference he was appointed to the Oppello Circuit, where he remained that year - 1881 - and this Conference year till his death. He died in peace in his own home, leaving his wife and four children to mourn his departure. Brother HARRISON was a good man and desired to do good He was not demonstrative in spirit nor labor, but loved God and his cause. He was prevented from doing that amount of itinerant work which he desired to do by matters which he regarded sufficient to justify his course in reference to his itinerant life. In peace he closed his earthly course, and laying his armor by, passed into rest - into the home of the just. God bless the bereaved ones at home! -- Jerome Haralson._ [42]
December 4, 1850:
It appears to me that Conrad Goodlove received a warrant #24784 for 40 acres dated December 4, 1850. [43]
I believe the explanation for the second application for Bounty Land had to do with the information on the mustering out rate and the documents on file with the government office (Ref #9.1 & 9.2) showed he terminated on the 18th of September (September 18) whereas he has claimed he served as a “volunteer” until November 25th. It appears he did obtain an additional warrant for 120 acres. Whether he used this to purchase the Iowa property as well as the sale of land near the Defiance, Ohio, land office, I have not been able to determine to date. Another possible theory regarding the 40 acres “entered on” at Defiance, Ohio, is that after receiving warrant #24784 for 40 acres dated December 4, 1850, he sold the property in Clark County to Eli Arbogast April 1, 1853 (see Deed in Ref #14) and also sold the 40 acres “entered on” at the Defiance Land Office before departing to Iowa.
Mary and I visited the Ohio State Library and the Ohio State Historical Society in February, 2002, after attending the booth of our Agri-Safety, Inc. (wholesale agricultural safety supplies) at the National Farm Machinery Show. In search of records of Bounty Land Warrants we located an old handwritten log pertaining to warrant number 15231 which appears in Ref. #24: It was issued to Conrad
Goodlove. (Ref #___)
We also located an old handwritten copy of the roll of Samuel McCord, Regiment, Ohio Calvary, militia for the War of 1812.

Summary
During the American War of Independence troops from var-
ious German territories fought on the British side,
including one unit from Waldeck called the Third English-
Waldeck Mercenary Regiment. All these auxiliary troops
are known under the name "Hessians" because the Land-
gravate of Hesse-Kassel provided the largest contingent
of mercenary units.

1867
Six children of William Harrison Goodlove and Sarah Catherine Pyle were born between 1867 and 1882; he would have been 46 and Sarah would have been 38 when Jessie Pearl was born. (Ref#46) [52]
1867: Gottlober also published Hebrew short stories: “Kol rinah vi-yeshu‘ah be-ohole tsadikim” (1875), “Hizaharu bi-vene ha-‘aniyim” (1880), and “Orot me-ofel” (1881). His stories commonly focused on issues that agitated the Jewish communities he was familiar with: unequal distribution of the burden of the Russian military draft, and obstacles in the way of youth who hoped to explore the Enlightenment. Gottlober also published a play, Tif’eret li-vene binah (1867).[53]
1867: Gottlober’s proficiency in various languages (including Russian and German) enabled him to translate poetry and prose into Hebrew. Among the works he translated were Gotthold Lessing’s Nathan der Weise (Nathan the Wise; 1874) and Moses Mendelssohn’s Jerusalem (1867). In his poetry anthologies, Gottlober also incorporated translations of poems from German and Russian, including German poets such as Schiller and Goethe.[54]
1867: Gottlober was one of the first maskilim of his time to write about Jewish history. His initial book in this field was Bikoret le-toldot ha-Kara’im (Critique of the History of the Karaites; 1865). Several years later, his Toldot ha-Kabalah veha-ḥasidut (History of the Kabbalah and Hasidism; 1869) appeared. His inclination was to deal with social and intellectual history, a topic that found expression in his autobiographical works: Zikhronot mi-yeme ne‘urai, meshulavim ‘im zikhronot ha-dor (Memoirs from the Days of My Youth, Joined with Memoirs of the Generation; 1880) and Zikhronot le-korot Haskalat ‘amenu be-artsenu erets Rusya’ (Memoirs of the History of the Enlightenment of Our People in Our Land, the Land of Russia; 1884). In 1867, Gottlober began planning the publication of a history of Jews in the southwest Russian Empire, based on communal registers and the records of local societies.[55]
1867
At wars end Southern States Legislatures passed measures designed to maintain white superiority. These laws known as black codes severely curtailed the newly freed slaves civil rights. In effect, returning them to a state of bondage and making them second class citizens. In response, angry Congressional republicans passed the Reconstruction act of 1867. A strict set of laws that temporarily abolished southern state governments, divided the south into military districts, and gave blacks the right to vote. The defeated south again felt invaded by the Northern authority. White supremacy was threatened.
Soon after passage of the reconstruction act, Clan leaders from all over Tennessee held a secret meeting in Nashville. The man granted control of the clan was Nathan Bedford Forest, former Confederate General and out spoken critic of Federal Reconstruction.[56]
1867: Alaska purchased from Russia.[57]
1867: The Turkish Ottoman Empire ruled the entire Middle East region from 1516-1917. During this 400 years of harsh Turkish rule, the land of Palestine (Israel) was sparsely populated, mostly by nomadic peoples. By the end of the 18th century, much of the land was owned by absentee landlords and leased to impoverished tenant farmers. The land was poorly cultivated and a widely neglected expanse of eroded hills, sandy deserts, and malarial marshes encroached on what was left of agricultural land. Its ancient irrigation systems, terraces, towns, and villages had crumbled. Taxation was crippling, with its forsts being taxed. When the people could not pay the tax, the trees were cut down to fuel the steam engines carrying goods between Istanbul, Beirut, Damascus, and Cairo. The great forests of the Galilee and the Carmel mountain range were denuded of trees; swamp and desert encroached on agricultural land. “Palestine” was truly a poor, neglected, noman’s land with no important cities.
Mark Twain, who visited Palestine in 1867, described it as “desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds, a silent mournful expanse…We never saw a human being on the whole route….There was hardly a tree or a shrub anywhere. Even the olive and the cactus, those fast friends of a worthless soil, had almost deserted the country.[58] [59]

December 4, 1941: FDR felt that an attack by the Japanese was probable – most likely in the Dutch East Indies or Thailand.[222] On December 4, 1941, The Chicago Tribune published the complete text of "Rainbow Five", a top-secret war plan drawn up by the War Department. It dealt chiefly with mobilization issues, calling for a 10-million-man army.
The great majority of scholars have rejected the conspiracy thesis that Roosevelt, or any other high government officials, knew in advance about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The Japanese had kept their secrets closely guarded. Senior American officials were aware that war was imminent, but they did not expect an attack on Pearl Harbor.[223] [67]

Key, north of Key West, as they are about to embark on a raid to Cuba. They are charged with
violation of the Neutrality Act. Among those arrested is Gerry Patrick Hemming, founder with
Frank Sturgis of the International Anti-Communist Brigade. Also arrested is Roy Hargraves.
The case is dismissed by the U.S. Justice Dept. because “Justice failed to go ahead with
prosecution.”
ExComm members today discuss future policy toward Cuba at a working meeting held
without JFK . The group reviews U.S. planning for future overflights of Cuba, apparently
agreeing that continued aerial reconnaissance is necessary to verify the removal of the IL-28 s and
to ensure offensive weapons are not reintroduced into Cuba. When John McCone raises the
possibility that another U-2 might be shot down, the ExComm decides that the United States
should respond by attacking one or more SAM sites. Troubled by the potential for a new crisis
arising over another attack on U.S. reconnaissance, McCone writes to McGeorge Bundy the
following morning to recommend that "diplomatic measures be taken" to assure that the United
States does not find itself in the position of having to attack Soviet-controlled bases in Cuba. [75]

400,000 years ago….Oldest Human DNA Reveals Mysterious Branch of Humanity
By By Charles Q. Choi, LiveScience Contributor December 4, 2013 1:11 PM

. The oldest known human DNA found yet reveals human evolution was even more confusing than thought, researchers say.

The DNA, which dates back some 400,000 years, may belong to an unknown human ancestor, say scientists. These new findings could shed light on a mysterious extinct branch of humanity known as Denisovans, who were close relatives of Neanderthals, scientists added.
Although modern humans are the only surviving human lineage, others once strode the Earth. These included Neanderthals, the closest extinct relatives of modern humans, and the relatively newfound Denisovans, who are thought to have lived in a vast expanse from Siberia to Southeast Asia. Research shows that the Denisovans shared a common origin with Neanderthals but were genetically distinct, with both apparently descending from a common ancestral group that had diverged earlier from the forerunners of modern humans. [See Images of Excavation & Mysterious 'New Hominid']
Genetic analysis suggests the ancestors of modern humans interbred with both these extinct lineages. Neanderthal DNA makes up 1 to 4 percent of modern Eurasian genomes, and Denisovan DNA makes up 4 to 6 percent of modern New Guinean and Bougainville Islander genomes in the Melanesian islands.
Pit of Bones
To discover more about human origins, researchers investigated a human thighbone unearthed in the Sima de los Huesos, or "Pit of Bones," an underground cave in the Atapuerca Mountains in northern Spain. The bone is apparently 400,000 years old.
"This is the oldest human genetic material that has been sequenced so far," said study lead author Matthias Meyer, a molecular biologist at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany. "This is really a breakthrough — we'd never have thought it possible two years ago that we could study the genetics of human fossils of this age." Until now, the previous oldest human DNA known came from a 100,000-year-old Neanderthal from a cave in Belgium.
The Sima de los Huesos is about 100 feet (30 meters) below the surface at the bottom of a 42-foot (13-meter) vertical shaft. Archaeologists suggest the bones may have been washed down it by rain or floods, or that the bones were even intentionally buried there.

This Pit of Bones has yielded fossils of at least 28 individuals, the world's largest collection of human fossils dating from the Middle Pleistocene, about 125,000 to 780,000 years ago.
"This is a very interesting time range," Meyer told LiveScience. "We think the ancestors of modern humans and Neanderthals diverged maybe some 500,000 years ago." The oldest fossils of modern humans found yet date back to about 200,000 years ago.
Denisovan relative?
The researchers reconstructed a nearly complete genome of this fossil's mitochondria — the powerhouses of the cell, which possess their own DNA and get passed down from the mother. The fossils unearthed at the site resembled Neanderthals, so researchers expected this mitochondrial DNA to be Neanderthal.
Surprisingly, the mitochondrial DNA reveals this fossil shared a common ancestor not with Neanderthals, but with Denisovans, splitting from them about 700,000 years ago. This is odd, since research currently suggests the Denisovans lived in eastern Asia, not in western Europe, where this fossil was uncovered. The only known Denisovan fossils so far are a finger bone and a molar found in Siberia. [Denisovan Gallery: Tracing the Genetics of Human Ancestors]
"This opens up completely new possibilities in our understanding of the evolution of modern humans, Neanderthals and Denisovans," Meyer said.
The researchers suggest a number of possible explanations for these findings. First, this specimen may have been closely related to the ancestors of Denisovans. However, this seems unlikely, since the presence of Denisovans in western Europe would suggest an extensive overlap of territory with Neanderthal ancestors, raising the question of how both groups could diverge genetically while overlapping in range. Moreover, the one known Denisovan tooth is significantly different from teeth seen at the Pit of Bones.
Second, the Sima de los Huesos humans may be related to the ancestors of both Neanderthals and Denisovans. The researchers consider this plausible given the fossil's age, but they would then have to explain how two very different mitochondrial DNA lineages stemmed from one group, one leading to Denisovans, the other to Neanderthals.
Third, the humans found at the Sima de los Huesos may be a lineage distinct from both Neanderthals and Denisovans that later perhaps contributed mitochondrial DNA to Denisovans. However, this suggests this group was somehow both distinct from Neanderthals but also independently evolved several Neanderthal-like skeletal features.
Fourth, the investigators suggest a currently unknown human lineage brought Denisovan-like mitochondrial DNA into the Pit of Bones region, and possibly also to the Denisovans in Asia.
"The story of human evolution is not as simple as we would have liked to think," Meyer said. "This result is a big question mark. In some sense, we know less about the origins of Neanderthals and Denisovans than we knew before."
The scientists now hope to learn more about these fossils by retrieving DNA from their cell nuclei, not their mitochondria. However, this will be a huge challenge — the researchers needed almost 2 grams of bone to analyze mitochondrial DNA, which outnumbers nuclear DNA by several hundred times within the cell.
The scientists detailed their findings in the December 5, 2013 issue of the journal Nature.[76]
