247 SAMUEL (Babylon)
Samuel became the acknowledged leader of the Jewish community in Babylon. A friend and colleague of Rav, he lived and taught in Nahardea where he was head of the academy. He was also an astronomer who composed a fixed calendar. He did not publish it, however, out of respect for the Patriarchate in Eretz Israel. In monetary and civil matters his rulings were accepted as binding. He also instructed Jews to adopt the laws of whichever land they dwelt in (Dina d'malchuta Dina), thus preparing them for survival in foreign environments. He served for only seven years. [8]

• 250 CE : Writings of the Christian poet Commodianus (fl. 250 CE), who retells the story of how God “concealed” the ten tribes, keeping them “enclosed [behind] a river across Persia” (trans Persida flumine clause). Commodianus is but one early instace of Christian apocalyptic writings relating to Esdras, which attached the ten tribes to visions of the end of the world. In the emergence of Jewish rabbinic tradition and its ongoing struggle with questions of exile and return in the wake of the temple’s destruiction, the question of the ten lost tribes was a complication. [12]
250: Jews expelled from Carthage.[13]

AD 270 – 275 Aurelian, emperor of Rome - establishes sun worship as the state religion
Aurelian strengthened the position of the Sun god, Sol or Oriens, and the main divinity of the Roman pantheon. His intention was to give to all the peoples of the Empire, civilian or soldiers, easterners or westerners, a single god they could believe in without betraying their own gods. The center of the cult was a new temple, built in 271 in Campus Agrippae in Rome, with great decorations financed by the spoils of the Palmyrene Empire.[11] [19][20]

Died
December 22, 1476(1476-12-22) (aged 25)
Lady Isabel Neville (or Isabella) (September 5, 1451 – December 22, 1476) was the elder daughter of Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick (the Kingmaker of the Wars of the Roses), and Anne de Beauchamp, 16th Countess of Warwick. She was the wife of George Plantagenet, 1st Duke of Clarence. She was also the elder sister of Anne Neville, who was Princess of Wales, by her first marriage and Queen consort of England by her second. [28]
Isabel died on December 22, 1476, two and a half months after the birth of Richard. It is now thought the cause was either consumption or childbed fever, yet at the time her husband accused one of her ladies-in-waiting of having murdered her, and committed in his turn a notorious judicial murder of the lady, called Ankarette Twynyho. Ankarette's grandson Roger Twynyho received from Edward IV a full retrospective pardon for Ankarette, and the petition he submitted to the king in 1478 describes fully the circumstances of the case, well illustrating the quasi-kingly high-handedness of Clarence which was ultimately not tolerated by the king:[1] [29]
December 22, 1589: So that both bride and groom could understand, Leith minister David Lindsay conducted the ceremony in French, describing Anne as "a Princess both godly and beautiful...she giveth great contentment to his Majesty."[35] A month of celebrations followed; and on December 22, cutting his entourage to fifty, James visited his new relations at Kronborg Castle in Elsinore, where the newlyweds were greeted by Queen Sophie, twelve-year-old King Christian IV, and Christian's four regents.[36] The couple moved on to Copenhagen on 7 March and attended the wedding of Anne's older sister Elizabeth to Henry Julius, Duke of Brunswick, sailing two days later for Scotland in a patched up "Gideon".[37] [30]

December 22, 1603: Mehmed III Sultan of the Ottoman Empire passed away. Born in 1566, Mehmed III continued the Turkish practice of taking advantage of the skills of his Jewish subjects. He appointed a Jew named Gabriel Buonaventura as ambassador to Spain which may seem counter-intuitive considering that Spain had expelled her Jews a century earlier. Two Jewish doctors named Benveniste and Korina were in palace service. In 1597 a Morrano named Alvaro Mendez who had taken the Turkish appellation Solomon Abenyaes prepared a treaty of alliance with England aimed at King Philip of Spain.
December 22, 1603: Ahmed I becomes Sultan of the Ottoman Empire following the death of Mehmed III. During his reign, Sultan Ahmed I caught small pox, a highly fatal disease. When his palace physicians could not help him, Ahmed sought help from Buha Eskenazi, the widow of Solomon Eskenazi who had been one of his doctors. The widow Eskenazi was able to affect a cure and she remained in the Sultan’s service.[32]

Sunday December 22, 1755:
Braddock, with several other officers, sail from Ireland for America. The troops for Braddock's expedition will follow in January. [37]

Philadelphia, intersected by 40th degree parallel of latitude
Philadelphia as mapped in 1755 - intersected by 40th degree parallel of latitude, while New Castle is far to the south (Alexandria is just south of 39th parallel)
Source: Library of Congress, A map of the British and French dominions in North America, with the roads, distances, limits, and extent of the settlements
Some Pennsylvania officials even claimed that the "beginning" of the 40th degree of latitude was the 39th parallel, and all the land north of the 39th degree of latitude was included in Penn's grant.3 A degree of latitude is roughly 69 miles (on land), so a lot of territory was at stake. Until Penn's claimed eastern and southern boundaries of the colony were defined, it was impossible to establish the southwestern corner, 5 degrees of longitude to the west of the southeastern corner.[41]
1755 William Crawford received the commission of ensign, from
General Robert Dinwiddie, Governor of the Colony of
Virginia. William Crawford joined Braddock’s army with his
company of riflemen..[42]
1755 - Birth of Ruth McKinnon to Daniel and Ruth, in Anne Arundel.[43]
1755: Sarah Vance married John Vail in 1755, she is the Daughter of Samuel Vance b. 1691, and Sarah "Blackburn" Vance b. 1709. Sarah "Vance" Vail was born in 1740. [44]
1755: Jane Vance was born 1755, the Daughter of Alexander Vance Sr. born 1725, and Margaret "Bigham" Vance. She later married David Vance born 1755, (They were 1st Cousins). David Vance was the Son of John Vance born 1730, and Margaret "White" Vance.[45]
1755: David Vance (My 2nd Cousin 6 Times Removed) was born 1755, the Son of John Vance (My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed) born 1730, and Margaret "White" Vance ( My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed, By Marriage). He later married Jane Vance ( My 2nd Cousin 6 Times Removed) born 1755, (They were 1st Cousins). Jane Vance (My 2nd Cousin 6 Times Removed) was the Daughter of Alexander Vance Sr. (My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed) born 1725, and Margaret "Bigham" Vance (My 1st Cousin 6 Times Removed, By Marriage).
1755: Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was born about 19-Jul-1755 Possibly in N.C. Or the Shenandoah Valley of Va. There has been no birth record of any kind found for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather). There is no proof that Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was his birth name, this is however the name he used in all records that have been found on him, so his ancestors use this name. It is also possible that Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was an Indian, most likely Cherokee if he was. There is no documented proof as to who Abner Vance's (My 4th Great Grandfather) parents were. There are several possibilities as to the identity of his parents. One set of possibly parents for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) is Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather) born 1715, and Theodosia "Hewlings" Vance (MY 5th Great Grandmother) born 1721. If the father of Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) was Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather) that brings us to another mystery! Who was Ephraim "Vause" Vance's (My 5th Great Grandfather) parents? There is no known records of who Ephraim "Vause" Vance's (My 5th Great Grandfather) parents were. There is a lot of information about Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather) and what he did during his life, but none to document where he came from. Theodosia Hewlings (My 5th Great Grandmother) born 1721 however is a different story. Theododia Hewlings's (My 5th Great Grandmother) parents have been documented, as well as her marriage to Ephraim "Vause" Vance (My 5th Great Grandfather). Another possible set of parents for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) is Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance. Personally I do not think Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance were Abner Vance's (My 4th Great Grandfather) parents, this does not mean they weren't, just that I don't think they were. My belief is that Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance were Abner Vance's (My 4th Great Grandfather) Uncle and Aunt. Another pocssible Father for Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) is Matthew Vance. I believe that Matthew Vance was the brother of Samuel Vance that married Sarah Colville, and if Matthew Vance is the Father of Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather), then my throry that Samuel Vance and Sarah "Colville" Vance are his Uncle and Aunt would be correct, however no proof of this has been found. Abner Vance (My 4th Great Grandfather) and Matthew Vance both swore the oath of allegiance to the Commonwealth of Virginia at the same time in May 1777, so they at least knew each other, and were most likely related.

December 22, 1768
The Rev. Daniel McKinnon and the Rev. Jeremiah Berry were licensed to preach, by the Bishop of London, on December 22, 1768. Both of these young men were sent to the colonies to minister to the Plantations of Maryland.[54]
The Reverend Daniel McKinnon was licensed to preach by the Bishop of London in 1768. He is known to have acted as a missionary as early as 1750-1753. A letter was sent by the compiler to the present Lord Bishop of London, asking for an explanation of this fact. His reply stated that whereas it was not customary to send young men to America prior to being ordained, there has been exceptions. Without quoting from the records in the case of Daniel McKinnon, "which are difficult to locate at this date," there was an example given on the well-known Rev. Charles Inglis, D.D., who, in 1787, became the English Colonial Bishop. He was in America as a young man, acted as a lay catechist and teacher. In 1758, he returned to England and received ordination.
It appears, therefore, that Daniel McKinnon, after spending a number of years disseminating the gospel in America, returned to England to complete his studies and preparation for ordination, and was ordained December 22, 1768, returning to America in 1769, as will appear.
Under the subject of "All Saints' Parish, Frederick County, established in 1742, it is stated that the Reverend Bacon was the minister in charge of this church up to the time of his death, May 27, 1768. He was succeeded by the Rev. Bennett Allen.
1769:Early in 1769, the Rev. Jeremiah Berry, a native of Maryland, was in charge as curate of Monocacy Chapel and the Rev. Daniel McKennon, also as curate, was ministering to the Frederick congregation. [55]
1769:Daniel returned to Maryland in 1769 and is listed as the Minister at All Saints Parish in Frederick County, Maryland.[56]/[57]
1769:King James Version (Oxford Standard edition corrected by Dr. Benjamin Blayney).[58]
At the concession stand at the Washington Home at Mt. Vernon I purchased a copy of “George Washington’s Diaries,” an abridgment by Dorothy Turohig. She gives an explanation behind the messages and events which Washington describes (Ref36). Of particular interest this writer points out that “This land which William and Valentine Crawford had surveyed for the Washingtons in 1769 is in the vicinity of Perryopolis, PA, in what is now Fayette County, PA.” (Ref 33.9) I believe this is the parcels she is referring to.

In 1754, as an incentive to recruit men for the Virginia Regiment — which eventually bled so at Fort Necessity — Governor Dinwiddie had promised 200,000 acres of frontier land as a bounty. Fifteen years later, in 1769, Washington reminded Lord Botetourt, the latest of Dinwiddie’s successors, of that promise and obtained a grant of lands down the Ohio River, wherever a suitable tract might be found.

[61]
George Walker Crawford (December 22, 1798 – July 27, 1872) was a licensed attorney turned politician from Columbia County, Georgia. Crawford was appointed attorney general for the state in 1827 by Governor John Forsyth, serving in that capacity until 1831. Crawford also served five years in the General Assembly's lower house as a representative of Richmond County on a platform of state's rights.
George Walker Crawford was born December 22, 1798 in Columbia County, Georgia. He was the fourth son of Peter and Mary Ann Crawford. His father was a veteran of the American Revolutionary War from Virginia who had settled in Georgia to claim a land share, known as a bounty grant which the state of Georgia had set aside for "those who had fought for independence".[3]
Peter Crawford acquired a sizable tract of land that he called Belair Plantation. The homestead was situated in close proximity of his uncle, Joel Crawford. Peter's uncle Joel fathered William H. Crawford, soon becoming a politician renowned locally for his political service to the state and for two presidential bids—running in 1816 and again in 1824.[4]
George Crawford grew up on the family's estate, heavily influenced by his father, and his cousin William as well. George's father was a practicing attorney and George availed himself to the well stocked personal library of his father while homeschooling his education. Peter Crawford also entered Georgia politics himself—beginning as Columbia County's first clerk of courts and becoming a 10 term representative in the state legislature.[3] George Crawford's cousin, William H. Crawford, was also becoming well known for his political service, and was the subject of local legend for two famous duels he had been a principle of.[5]
George Crawford built on his homeschooling at the College of New Jersey's school of law (later becoming Princeton University). Crawford graduated with a bachelor's degree in 1820 and subsequently completed an internship under the tutelage of Richard Henry Wilde.[6] Crawford was admitted to the State Bar of Georgia in 1822 and started a legal practice in Augusta, partnering with Henry H. Cumming. He went on to obtain a master's degree from the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences, the founding college of the University of Georgia. After graduating Franklin, Crawford served from 1824–25 as a second lieutenant in the 10th Regiment of the Georgia Militia.[7]
In 1826 George Crawford married Mary Ann MacIntosh, having four children of the marriage: William Peter, Sarah MacIntosh, Anna Elizabeth, and Charles. George W. Crawford embarked on his political career the following year, accepting a gubernatorial appointment to become Georgia's attorney general.[6]
Attorney general of Georgia
Governor John Forsyth appointed Crawford to succeed Thomas F. Wells as Georgia's attorney general in 1827. The following year, Crawford challenged Congressman Thomas E. Burnside, Ambrose Burnside's uncle,[8] to a duel over published defamation Burnside had written about Crawford's father.
He shot Burnside dead in the infamous duel, prompting the state to pass new legislation; "forbidding persons involved in duels from holding office".[6] The restriction only applied to duels fought after the law was enacted and did not affect Crawford's career.[9] He continued serving as attorney general until 1831 when he was succeeded by Charles J. Jenkins.[10]
The code duello
When George Crawford read the anonymous letter to the editor published in The Augusta Chronicle he was incensed by the prose—sharply criticizing the political views of his father, then declining in health. Crawford regarded it as an attack on his father's good name. Crawford demanded the newspaper editor give him the author's name but the editor refused, protecting Burnside's identity by telling Crawford the letter was from a woman, and that for this reason, he would not release the person's name.[8]
Inexplicably, Burnside contacted Crawford telling him that he was the author. Crawford immediately challenged Burnside to a duel which Burnside accepted, although with reluctance.[8] The code duello was waning in vogue but it was still held as a measure which an honorable man was obliged to endure. Burnside was aspiring his own political career which showed promise of upward mobility. Burnside felt he would be shamed with dishonor if he refused, and in his era, without honor there was no career in politics.[8] [62]
December 21, 1778: Daniel Leet became Brigade Major of a Virginia brigade, December 21, 1778 to the close of the War. [63]
December 22, 1797: The younger Frederick succeeded his father as the reigning Duke of Württemberg on December 22, 1797. [64]
May 18, 1797 – December 22, 1797: Her Royal Highness The Hereditary Princess of Württemberg[4]
December 22, 1797 – February 25, 1803: Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Württemberg[65]
1798 - December 22 - By act of the General Assembly, Harrison Academy at Cynthiana was incorporated. Trustees: Benjamin Harrison, William E. Boswell, Henry Coleman, Hugh Miller, Sr., John Wall, Samuel Lamb, Samuel McMullin, Samuel Cook, Robert Hingston. [66] This institution, named after Benjamin Harrison operated until 1872, then becoming the Cynthiana public school. When a new Kentucky county was formed out of old Bourbon County, it was named for Benjamin Harrison. [67] The academy was in a stone building on the North side of Pearl Street, at the end of Walnut Street on what was later the old Cemetery grounds. [68]

It should be clearly understood, that while Washington did not receive land for his pay in the military service, he did employ his own party of surveyors to survey land for him. At his death, he was the owner of more than 70,000 acres of land, as per will in 1799. The huge surveys which William Crawford arranged for Washington in the Kanawh area, were; The Poca tract, Washington Bottom at Parkersburg, W. VaA., the Ravenswood tract, Round Bottom and (the Millwood tract, now in present Jackson County, W. VA.) The latter containing more than 4,000 acres. There were other tracts surveyed for Washington as well as for the officers and soldiers of the King’s Grant.
On the original surveys at Morgantown, W. VA., are listings of other surveyors, who were working with William Crawford in the Kanawha district. Those whose names are well known in surveying history; Robert Rutherford, Richard Graham, Alexander Henderson and Robert Griffith, etc…[73]
1803 - December 22 - Benjamin Harrison, Sr. cancelled power of attorney given Richard J. Waters*- and revoked his Will: To all those who will see these presents, greetings. Let it be known that I, Benjamin Harrison, Senior, domiciled in the Province of Louisiana in the District of New Madrid., disavow and annul by these presents a general power (of attorney) given by me to Richard J. Waters, also domiciled in the aforesaid District, as well as a Will which is thereto annexed., hereby declaring of no value all other acts or writings, etc. which he may have made in the meantime in virtue of the aforesaid Power, or in case of my death, I declare also, my last wishes, or the Will which is attached to the said power, to be nul and without effect or value, and as a thing that never happened. In virtue of which I have affixed my seal and signed by hand this 22nd day of December, 1803.
Before me. Benj. Harrison, Sr.
Juan Lavallee[74]
*Richard Jones Waters settled at New Madrid about 1790. He was a doctor, trader, mill owner, land speculator. (Douglass, P. 97)\
December 22, 1803: Most of the remaining men evidently joined the expedition during the winter at River Dubois. Many were enlisted men from four companies of the U.S. Army stationed at small posts in the West: Captain Daniel Bissell's company of the First Infantry Regiment, stationed at Fort Massac, Illinois; Captain Russell Bissell's company of the same regiment, stationed at Fort Kaskaskia, Illinois; Captain John Campbell's company of the Second Infantry Regiment, stationed in Tennessee; and Captain Amos Stoddard's company of artillerists, stationed at Fort Kaskaskia. Clark seems to have suspected that the men sent from Tennessee, at least, were picked on the time-honored principle of getting rid of those who could best be spared by their original unit (see Clark's entry, December 22, 1803). Some backwoodsmen from the Illinois and Missouri settlements may have joined during the winter, but for a number of men there is no indication of when and where they first joined or whether they were already in the army. All those not already in the military service who were chosen for the permanent party enlisted as soldiers, except York, Clark's slave, and George Drouillard, the civilian interpreter and hunter. Two French boatmen with experience in the Indian trade on the Missouri, FranC with cedilla lowercase symbolois Labiche and Pierre Cruzatte, enlisted for the permanent party. [4][75]
December 22, 1823: Resolutions of Alabama legislature proposing Jackson for president were submitted to Governor Israel Pickens, who disapproved them on December 22. [76]
December 22, 1828
The Tennessee legislature again nominated Jackson for President. Jackson attracted Vice President John C. Calhoun, Martin Van Buren, and Thomas Ritchie into his camp (the latter two previous supporters of Crawford). Van Buren, with help from his friends in Philadelphia and Richmond, revived the old Republican Party, gave it a new name as the Democratic Party, "restored party rivalries", and forged a national organization of durability.[18] The Jackson coalition handily defeated Adams in 1828.
During the election, Jackson's opponents referred to him as a "jackass." Jackson liked the name and used the jackass as a symbol for a while, but it died out. However, it later became the symbol for the Democratic Party when cartoonist Thomas Nast popularized it.[19]
December 22, 1828: The campaign was very much a personal one. Although neither candidate personally campaigned, their political followers organized many campaign events. Both candidates were rhetorically attacked in the press, which reached a low point when the press accused Jackson's wife Rachel of bigamy. Though the accusation was true, as were most personal attacks leveled against him during the campaign, it was based on events that occurred many years prior (1791 to 1794). Jackson said he would forgive those who insulted him, but he would never forgive the ones who attacked his wife. Rachel died suddenly on December 22, 1828, prior to his inauguration, and was buried on Christmas Eve.[77]

1829
At 19 Abraham Baer Gottlober remarried and movede to Podolia where, under the influence of Menahem Mendel Levin’s works, he began writing in Yiddish and in Hebrew. [79] He married again, but found his second wife unbearable and soon divorced her.[80]
December 22, 1828: William Henry Harrison arrived in Bogotá on December 22, 1828. He found the condition of Colombia saddening. Harrison reported to the Secretary of State that the country was on the edge of anarchy and he thought Simón Bolívar was about to become a military dictator. While minister in Colombia, Harrison wrote a rebuke to Bolívar, stating "... the strongest of all governments is that which is most free." He called on Bolívar to encourage the development of a democracy. In response, Bolívar wrote, "The United States ... seem destined by Providence to plague America with torments in the name of freedom", a sentiment that achieved fame in Latin America.[49] When the new administration of President Andrew Jackson took office in March 1829, Harrison was recalled so they could make their own appointment to the position. He returned to the United States in June.[50]

Harrison in a copy of an 1835 White House portrait by James Reid Lambdin
After Harrison returned to the United States in 1829, he settled on his farm in North Bend, Ohio, his adopted home state. There, he lived in relative retirement after nearly 40 years of continuous government service. Having accumulated no substantial wealth during his lifetime, he subsisted on his savings, a small pension, and the income produced by his farm. Harrison cultivated corn and established a distillery to produce whiskey. After a brief time in the liquor business, he became disturbed by the effects of alcohol on its consumers, and closed the distillery. In a later address to the Hamilton County Agricultural Board in 1831, Harrison said he had sinned in making whiskey, and hoped that others would learn from his mistake and stop the production of liquors.[51]
In these early years, Harrison also earned money from his contributions to a biography written by James Hall, entitled A Memoir of the Public Services of William Henry Harrison, published in 1836. That year he made an unsuccessful run for the presidency as a Whig candidate.[51] Between 1836 and 1840, Harrison served as Clerk of Courts for Hamilton County. This was his job when he was elected president in 1840.[52] By 1840, when Harrison campaigned for president a second time, more than 12 books had been published on his life. He was hailed by many as a national hero.[53]

Chromolithograph campaign poster for William Henry Harrison
Harrison was the Northern Whig candidate for president in 1836, the only time in American history when a major political party intentionally ran more than one presidential candidate. Vice President Martin Van Buren, the Democratic Candidate, was popular and deemed likely to win the election against an individual Whig candidate. The Whig plan was to elect popular Whigs regionally, deny Van Buren the 148 electoral votes needed for election, and force the House of Representatives to decide the election. They hoped the Whigs would control the House after the general elections. (This strategy would have failed as the Democrats retained a majority in the House following the election.)[54][55]
Harrison ran in all the free states except Massachusetts, and the slave states of Delaware, Maryland, and Kentucky. Hugh L. White ran in the remaining slave states except for South Carolina. Daniel Webster ran in Massachusetts, and Willie P. Mangum in South Carolina.[56] The plan narrowly failed as Van Buren won the election with 170 electoral votes. A swing of just over 4,000 votes in Pennsylvania would have given that state's 30 electoral votes to Harrison, and the election would have been decided in the House of Representatives.[54][55][57]

Poster of Harrison's accomplishments
Harrison was the Whig candidate (and again faced Van Buren, now the incumbent president) in the 1840 election. The Whig party unified behind a single candidate, and Harrison was chosen over more controversial members of the party, such as Clay and Webster. Harrison based his campaign on his heroic military record and on the weak U.S. economy, caused by the Panic of 1837. In a ploy to blame Van Buren for the depressed economy, the Whigs nicknamed him "Van Ruin".[58]

Results by county explicitly indicating the percentage of the winning candidate in each county. Shades of yellow are for Harrison (Whig) and shades of blue are for Van Buren (Democrat).
The Democrats ridiculed Harrison by calling him "Granny Harrison, the petticoat general," because he resigned from the army before the War of 1812 ended. When asking voters whether Harrison should be elected, they asked them what his name backwards was, which happens to be "No Sirrah." Democrats cast Harrison as a provincial, out-of-touch old man who would rather "sit in his log cabin drinking hard cider" than attend to the administration of the country. This strategy backfired when Harrison and his vice presidential running-mate, John Tyler, adopted the log cabin and hard cider as campaign symbols. They used the images in banners and posters, and created bottles of hard cider that were shaped like log cabins, all to connect to the "common man".[59]
Although Harrison had come from a wealthy, slaveholding Virginia family, in this campaign he was promoted as a humble frontiersman in the style of the popular Andrew Jackson. A memorable example was the Gold Spoon Oration, delivered by a Whig representative. Van Buren, by contrast, was presented as a wealthy elitist.[60]
A Whig chant from the time of the election exhibited the difference between candidates:
Old Tip he wore a homespun coat, he had no ruffled shirt: wirt-wirt,
But Matt he has the golden plate, and he's a little squirt: wirt-wirt!
People singing the chant would spit tobacco juice while singing "wirt-wirt".[61]
The Whigs boasted of Harrison's military record and reputation as the hero of the Battle of Tippecanoe. Their campaign slogan, "Tippecanoe and Tyler too", became among the most famous in American politics.[61] On election day, Harrison won a landslide electoral college victory, though the popular vote was much closer, at 53% to 47%.[61]

December 22, 1917: You say Werneck "was a Jewish community." Does that mean a village in which all the residents were Jews or that there was a Jewish community in Werneck? What sources would you recommend to me to learn more about Werneck?
One of your birthdays for December 22 was for Margaret Grant. Who is that? It caught my attention because you mention Judge Didawick's letter in the same post. His wife's name was Margaret Grant. Jacob was 83 when he wrote the letter to Annie Cline, and he was living with his daughter's family in St. Louis after nearly 60 years in Montana. Jim
Jim, Thanks for the Godlove info. I got the info on Werneck on a German websight and translated in using babble fish. Werneck had a Jewish community including synagogue but was not only Jewish. I will find that website tonight. The Grant you asked about is Margaret Gertrude Grant Born December 22, 1917 in St. Thomas, Elgin, Ontario, Canada. died Jun 18, 1980. Married Earl Wiliam Durham.
