Duchess of Parma

Louise Élisabeth of France, Duchess of Parma in 1750.jpg

August 14 1727-
December 6 1759

Twin sister of Henriette; married Philip, Duke of Parma and had children


[8]

December 6, 1568: In this state of matters, on December 6, the commissioners of Mary protest, in her name, against all that is done, and declare the conferences at an end : Cecil does not admit the protest. [9]

December 6, 1768: Princess Augusta Sophia was born at Buckingham House, London, the sixth child and second daughter of George III (1738–1820) and his wife Queen Charlotte. Her father so much wanted the new baby to be a girl that the doctor presiding over the labor thought fit to protest that "whoever sees those lovely Princes above stairs must be glad to have another." The King was so upset by this view he replied that "whoever sees that lovely child the Princess Royal above stairs must not wish to have the fellow to her." To the King's delight, and the Queen's relief, the baby was a small and pretty girl.[1]

The young princess was christened on December 6, 1768, by Frederick Cornwallis, The Archbishop of Canterbury, in the Great Council Chamber at St. James's Palace. Her godparents were Prince Charles of Mecklenburg (her maternal uncle, who was visiting England), The Queen-consort of Denmark (her paternal aunt, for whom The Duchess of Ancaster and Kesteven, Mistress of the Robes to The Queen, stood proxy) and The Hereditary Duchess of Brunswick-Lüneburg (her paternal aunt, for whom The Duchess of Northumberland, Lady of the Bedchamber to The Queen, stood proxy).[2] When only a month old, Lady Mary Coke declared her "the most beautiful infant I ever saw".[1]

Princess Augusta was the middle of the elder trio of Princesses that consisted of her, her older sister Charlotte (born 1766) and her younger sister Elizabeth (born 1770). In 1771, the two elder Princesses started traveling to Kew to take lessons under the supervision of Lady Charlotte Finch and Miss Planta. The Princesses, who had formerly been very close to their brothers now saw little of them, except when their paths crossed on daily walks. In 1774, Martha Goldsworthy, or "Gouly" became the new head of their educations. The Princesses learned typically feminine pursuits, such as deportment, music, dancing, and arts, but their mother also ensured that they learned English, French, German, Geography, and had well-educated governesses.

Princess Augusta, aged thirteen.

The young Augusta was a great favorite with Miss Planta, who called her "the handsomest of all the Princesses" though compared to her older sister, she was "childish". However, the Princess was painfully shy, and stammered when in front of people she didn't know. From an early age Augusta was fixed on being good and was often upset when she did not succeed. Her behavior veered in between troublesome and well-mannered. She sometimes threw tantrums and hit her governesses, though she also often had a calm disposition and family-minded ways. She strongly disliked the political tensions that by 1780 had sprung up between her elder brothers and their parents, and preferred to occupy herselfg with her coin collection. As all her sisters were, Augusta was sheltered from the outside world so much that her only friends were her attendants, with whom she kept up a frequent correspondence. [10]

No. 6.—William CRAWFORD TO George WASHINGTON

December 6, 1770.



DEAR SIR :—Agreeable to your desire, I have bought the Great Meadows[11] from Mr. Harrison, for thirty pistoles, to be paid to Mr. Jacob Hite; and enclosed is an order on you from Mr. Harrison in favor of Mr. Hite, and the bill of sale filled up by Mr. McLain. I also unclose a draft of the land, to be run as you think proper. Any alteration you want done, please to let me know, and I will see it done when Mr. McLain comes up next summer.

I intend to go to Fort Pitt in a day or two. The snow that fell the time you left my house continued on the ground with the help of some’ more ever since, so there was no looking at the land with the caution you desired.[12] I shall send you a full account by my brother, who is to be up by Christmas, if I can have the ground clear of snow long enough to have it done; at any rate, I will see it next week. Colonel Croghan is at Fort Pitt still, and I under­stand is to stay the chief part of the winter[13]. I wish you a merry Christmas. I am, etc.

P. S.—Mr. Hite has an order on you for the same amount. One only is to be paid. [14]



December 11, 1770



Lord Dunmore was appointed Governor of the Virginia Colony on December 11, 1770. He left the governorship of the New York Colony, because of his desire to take up selected lands in western New York, with the approval of Sir William Johnson, the Indian agent. The British government ordered Lord Dunmore not to erect any more western counties. But Washington and others kept importuning him to grant patents for the lands which he and William Crawford had selected.



Colonel Thomas Bullit became on of the most interesting figures in this movement, because of his survey of lands down the Ohio Valley. He was an officer in the Forbes army of 1758, and while guarding convoys of the traders along the Forbes Road, suffered his defeat at the hands of the Indians three miles east of Ligonier on May 23, 1759. He afterwards secured a surveyor’s commission from William and Mary College, at Williamsburg, and started marking out lands in the Ohio Valley. Some of his surveys were questioned. The famed William Crawford also received a commission from the same college, and he interested himself mostly in the lands which he had selected for Washington.



John Murray, Earl of Dunmore, otherwise known as Lord Dunmore, was born in Scotland in 1732, and died in England in 1809. He was descended on the female side from the royal Stuarts. When he was appointed Governor of New York in 1770, his salary was to be paid from a duty on tea, but within the next year he was appointed into the governmental and legal life of old Westmoreland County. He is reputed to have visited western Pennsylvania at least three times. He first came in 1773, when Washington was to have accompanied him to the plantation of Justice Crawford (at present Connellsville). Washington was detained by the death of one of the Custis children. In the spring of 1774 Washington again postponed a contemplated visit with Dunmore, and again failed to accompany him. Lord Dunmore visited Pittsburgh and “Fort Dunmore” for the last time in February 1775. Despite his presiding as a justice in the Pennsylvania court at Hannastown, Crawford was all the while in touch with Dunmore, up until at least the April term, 1774, when Connolly appeared at Hannastown. [15]



As late as December 6, 1771, despite his seekin of land rights from the Penns, and even after Crawford became a justice in the courts of Bedford County, Washington disclosed the designs of Virginia by his letter to Crawford. [16]



December 6, 1771 At home alone all day. In the afternoon Mr. Phil. Pendleton came.[17]

No. 11._George WASHINGTON TO William CRAWFORD[18]

MOUNT VERNON, December 6, 1771.

DEAR Sir:—The inclosed I write to you in behalf of the whole officers and soldiers, and beg of you to be attentive to it, as I think our interest is deeply concerned in the event of your dispatch.

I believe, from what I have lately heard, that there is no doubt now of the charter government[19] taking place on the Ohio; but upon what terms, or how the lands will be granted to the people, I have not been able to learn. I should be glad, however, if you would endeavor to keep the tract you surveyed for me till such time as we can tell where, and how, to apply for rights; or, if you did anything with McMahan[20] on my account, I will abide by that. As soon as the tract at the Great Meadows is enlarged, I should be glad to have the surveys returned to the office, and to get a plat of it myself; as I am determined to take out a patent for it immediately.

I cannot hear of any reserve in favor of Colonel Croghan; for which reason I do not care to say anything more to him on the subject of a purchase until matters are upon a more permanent footing, since no disadvantage can follow to him, after leaving him at liberty in my last letter to sell the tract he made me an offer of, to anybody he pleased. I should be glad, however, to hear from you how he goes on in his sales, and what is said and thought of his claim; in short, what chance there appears to be of his getting it; for I suppose his right to the lands he claims must either be confirmed or rejected by this time, and known at Pittsburgh before now. I should be glad to hear from you by the first opportunity in respect to these several matters. In the meanwhile, I remain, with my best wishes to Mrs. Crawford, yourself and family, dear sir, your assured friend and servant.[21]

December 6,1774: William Crawford, John Stephenson and others appointed justices of the peace for Augusta Co., by John, Earl of Dunmore.[22]



December 6, 1774

His MAJESTIES Writ for adjorning the County Court of Augusta from the Town of Staunton to Fort Dunmore, and with a new Commission of the Peace and Dedirnus and a Commission of Oyer and Terminer and Dedimus from under the hand of John, Earl of Dunmore, his Majesties Lieutenant and Governor in chief, bearing date the Sixth day of December One Thousand Seven Hundred and Seventy four, directed to Silas Hart, James Kockhart, John Dickinson, John Christian, Daniel Smith, Archibald Alexander, John Poage, Felix Gilbert, Abraham Smith, Samuel McDowell, George Moffett, Sampson Matthews, Alexander McClenachan, William Bowyer, Alexander Robertson, John Gratton, John Hays, Thos.

December 1774

In December, 1774, he had been commissioned by Dunmore a justice of the peace and a justice of Oyer and Terminer for the county of Augusta, the court to he held at Fort Dunmore (Pittsburgh). He did not qualify, however, for these offices, until after lie had been super­seded in those held by him under Pennsylvania authority.

• Augusta county, as claimed by Virginia, included Crawford’s ‘ home upon the Yougbiogheny; afterwards it was in the District of West Augusta, and finally in Yohogania county, until Virginia, in 1779, relinquished her claim to Southwestern Pennsylvania. Crawford not only took office under Virginia, but he became an active partisan in extending the jurisdiction of his native province over the disputed territory. Some of his acts were doubtless oppressive, though he soon atoned for them in his patriotic course upon the breaking out of the Revolution. The partisan feeling in his breast immediately gave place to the noble one of patriotism. He struck hands with Pennsylvanians in the cause of liberty.[24]


December 6, 1774: His Majesties Writ for adjoming the County Court of Augusta from the Town of Staunton to Fort Dunmore, and with a

were administered to them by Thomas Smallman and Dawsey
Penticost, and then John Campbell and John Connolly adminis-
tered all the aforesaid Oaths to the aforesaid Thomas Smallman
and Dawsey Penticost, who took the same and subscribed the

Abjuration Oath and Test.[25]
On December 12th 1774: A writ had been issued by Dunmore, in the name of his British Majesty, adjourning the county court
of Augusta county from Staunton, Va. , to Fort Dunmore, accompanied
with a new commission of the peace, embracing with the old justices
of the parent county the names of such of the adherents in the Mo-
nongahela valley as were regarded as proper persons for Virginia
magistrates.

The District was called the District of West Augusta, and in its ter-
ritory now in Pennsylvania it was bounded on the east by the Laurel
Hill mountains and extended along the east side of the Allegheny
Oliver some distance beyond the Kiskeminitas, embracing all of West-
moreland, Allegheny, Beaver, Washington, Greene, and Fayette
■counties. [26]



December 6, 1816 Francis entered a claim for a land patent from the Commonwealth of Virginia. This land, 78 acres on the drains of North River and the north side of Bucks Hill, adjoining his 100-acre tract.[27]



“December 6, 1777: At two o’clock this morning we learned that the army had engaged with the enemy and as the firing did not last very long, it is to be imagined that it was with their outposts. [28]

1796 - December 6 - Benjamin Harrison, Morgan Vanmatre, Jeremiah Robinson, John Wall, Sr. and Henry Coleman, Trustees of Cynthiana, conveyed Lot 10 in Cynthiana to George Reading. Consideration $10 paid to Robert Harrison, proprietor of said town. Acknowledged Harrison Court December 1796 by Wall, Robinson and Coleman. [29]

My Aunt Winifred Goodlove Gardner told me that she remembered hearing it said that Catherine had stayed with an Aunt Mary in Kentucky for some time in her childhood. That Aunt Mary, no doubt, was Mary Harrison Moore whose gravesite my wife, Mary, and I found in an abandoned graveyard near the village of Poindexter (located about 3 miles from Cynthiana, Kentucky). We walked through farm fields to locate it. The stone fence surrounding it is still nearly complete but it is now covered with trees. (See picture Ref.#8) Tom Moore lived neighbors to the families of Lawrence Harrison and William Crawford in Fayette County, PA, and moved with the Harrisons to claim his 2000 acres which was laid out by Ben Harrison at the same time as the 4000 acres was laid out in Harrison County, Kentucky, for William Harrison who was killed by Indians on the Sandusky Expedition. According to the story, William Harrison was in Kentucky recruiting “sharp-shooters” when he fell in love with the Bluegrass Country and sent for his brother, Ben, to claim it for him. The Harrison’s role in early Kentucky history has lived on in history books and memorials which I will cover briefly in a later chapter.[30]

Casey then placed the 8.9-inch aluminum tip atop the capstone to the cheers of the crowd below. The Washington Monument was complete, and it had surpassed the Cologne Cathedral to be the tallest building in the world at 555 feet, 5.125 inches. Inscribed on the aluminum cap, notable names and dates in the monument's construction are recalled, and on the east face, facing the rising sun, the Latin words "Laus Deo," which translate to, "Praise be to God." [53]

December 6, 1889: Davis' refusal to appoint a general commander of southern forces and his attempt to manage the Southern army and government at the same time is thought to have contributed to the South's defeat. After the fall of Atlanta in 1865, he was captured in Georgia, clapped in irons and indicted for treason. After two years, he was finally released on bail; charges against him were not dropped until 1869. While in prison he staved off financial ruin by selling his Mississippi estate to a former slave. A rebel to the end, Davis refused to swear an oath of allegiance that would have reinstated his U.S. citizenship even after his release from prison. The time spent incarcerated impacted his health, and on December 6, 1889, Davis died in New Orleans.[54]

LETTER TWO
Portsmouth, Ohio
December 6, 1932

Dear Col. Reasoner,

This last Wednesday afternoon I ran down to Adams County and this time, located the John R Connell cemetery on the old John R Connell f arm.

It is about 2 ½ miles Northwest of Bentonville, by way of the Ellis Pike. The cemetery is on a farm now owned by a Mr. Ambrose Sininger. It is situated on a knoll to the right of a land that runs past the Sininger house and barn, and is about 1/8th of a mile, I would say, from the Pike. There are tow cedar stumps now standing on the lot. These trees died a number of years ago and were cut down.

The cemetery is very small, unfenced and enriched upon as it is now isolated in a plowed field. When Mr. Sininger bought the farms a few years ago the cemetery had been reduced to a square of about twenty feet. But now head stone marks a grave and this stone has been broken off below the line of inscription. Five fragments of partly legible stone were found upon the lot. They bore sufficient evidence to definitely identify the John R Connell cemetery. They were as follows:

A stone to Dunseth, who died July 6, 1853, aged 4 months and 25 days.

A stone to Nancy, wife of Moses Connell

A stone to "Elle"

A stone to "Jo---" son of M and "Na----" Connell

A stone un-named and broken giving incomplete record of age.

If Wednesday is a good day, I will try to take some photographs of the land and also locate the cemetery two miles to the west of this place. You will hear from me again soon.

Yours truly,

(signed) Samuel P Adams [58]

Veterans of World War II and survivors of Japan's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor gathered on the Battleship Texas Saturday to pay their respects to fallen comrades and express the hope that no future generation faces such a challenge.

The windy foredeck of the big, blue battleship was filled with visitors, among them a few members of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association headed by Howard Snell, the chapter's president.

Several veterans remarked that a major reason for the annual event is education. More than one seemed to overhear a young woman ask a retired officer what Pearl Harbor Day represents.

Capt. George Holyfield, head of the Texas Commandery of the Naval Order of the United States, said that "there is an increasing number of Americans who know Dec. 7 only through history books. Many are not aware of what took place more than 50 years ago."

Although the attack damaged or sank eight U.S. battleships and numerous other vessels, and caused 3,500 casualties, the Texas was not involved.

Retired Marine Major Gen. Hugh W. Hardy recalled that the Texas was in port in Maine recovering from patrol duties in the North Atlantic. The Texas was among the Navy vessels in escort convoys to Great Britain, then under attack by Germany and Italy.

Hardy said the purpose of the Pearl Harbor attack was to cripple the U.S. Pacific fleet so Japan could move unhindered into the South Pacific. Although the attack was a success, Hardy said it was a gigantic blunder.

"The reason I say it was a gigantic blunder is because that attack cured isolationism in America and replaced it with a population, a government and industrial base with a single-minded determination to win the war and punish the aggressor," Hardy said.

He said that Japan's greatest admiral also realized the effect that an attack without a declaration of war would have. Hardy quoted Adm. Isoroku Yamamoto as saying, "It will not do to cut a sleeping throat."

Referring to the famous "day that will live in infamy" speech by then-President Roosevelt, Hardy said he prays that never again will anyone hear such a message as he heard on Dec. 8, 1941.

Among the Pearl Harbor survivors attending the ceremony were Howard Snell, who is president of the local chapter, and Charley H. Reddick, an association member.

Snell said he was attending cook's and baker's school at Pearl and had just finished breakfast when the attack began.

Because of the fear of a Japanese invasion, Snell said that three days after the attack, the cooks baked field bread, which could be issued as emergency rations.

After the war, Snell remained in the Navy and served in naval intelligence, where he helped develop sophisticated listening systems to track submarines around the world.

Reddick said he may have been a bit groggy that Sunday morning. The night before, there had been a "battle of the bands" among the various ships. And there was plenty of free beer.

"The Arizona won the contest, but they lost the battle," he said.

Reddick said he also had just finished breakfast when he heard the noise of the attack. At first, he thought it was a firing exercise, but then saw planes marked with red circles that he knew were not American.

A private first class assigned to the Marine 2nd Engineer battalion, Reddick said he was in Hawaii to help build a Marine training facility.

When he realized they were under attack, he said he tackled the hazardous job of clearing debris from Hickam field runways so that planes could take off in defense.

Reddick said that his efforts were rewarded by a commendation from Adm. Chester Nimitz, which brought promotion to corporal.

He was one of three brothers in the Pacific war. One was taken prisoner by the Japanese on Cavite during the initial Philippine campaign but survived. A younger brother was killed in Okinawa.

After the war, Reddick returned to civilian life in Houston, where he worked as a cement mason for 50 years.

Of the experience, Reddick said, ``I wouldn't go back through it for anything, but I wouldn't take a million dollars for it.''

1999

Traveling along County Road D-47 from Hopkinton to Ryan today, the careful observer will notice a small sign by the side of the road announcing the approach of “Buck Creek Community POP. 32. The person or group placing the sign there was apparently conforming to the way in which the U.S. Bureau of the Census has helped train us to think about places in the late twentieth century. There probably are thirty two people who live in the less than half dozen houses huddled around the small Methodist church near where Lime Creek, or “Buck Creek” crosses the road. Nonetheless, Buck Creek formerly was a much larger place, both in terms of population and territory. About 150 yards west of the church stands a large dilapidate brick building, a former school with gymnasium attached, presently used to store the farm equipment and grain of one of the gigger farm operations in the area. “BUCK CREEK CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL” is emblazoned on a large cement tablet prominently displayed on the fron of the building abovce its main entrance. From a census derived conception of place, this building seems strangely out of place. It si much too large for there not to be some visible evidence of Buck Creek having consisgted of many more than the half dozen or so buildings there now.



The Buck Creek Methodist Church and the Buck Creek Consolitdated School were once imbued with far more significance of place, of community, and even of personal identity for people in southern Delaware County thanb they are now. The Buck Creek Church and school were once significant social actors in themselves, giving definition and meaning rto a larger and, in a sense, far more cosmopolitan place called Buck Creek. In the Buck Creek referred to here, there was no need for a road sign announcing either its approach or its population size. That Buck Creek was visible in the landscape, but one had to know what to look for and realize that place was not a thing but a process.[65]



1999: Population of Jerusalem in the latest census (Jewish Rule), 633,700.[66] Although Jerusalem was in Moslem hands for nearly 1,200 years (interrupted only by the short period of the Crusader kingdom), most of the time the rulers were non-Arab Moslems, such as the Fatimids, Seljuks, Mamluks, and Ottoman Turks. The decline in population under Moslem rule shows the insignificant role Jerusalem played in Moslem eyes.[67]

[11]The Great Meadows were four miles east of the Laurel Hill, and ten miles east of the present Uniontown, Fayette county, Pennsylvania,—on the National road, forty-two miles from what is now Cumberland, Maryland. Here, in April, 1754, Washington built Fort Necessity, which was surrendered to the French in July following.


[12]Washington left Mount Vernon on the 5th of October, 1770, on his journey to the Ohio river, reaching the home of Crawford on the 13th. On the next day, in his journal, which has been frequently published, he wrote:

”At Captain Crawford’s all day. Went to see a coal-mine not far from his house, on the banks of the river [Youghiogheny]. The coal seemed to be of the very best kind, burning freely, and abundance of it.” On the next day he says: “Went to view some land which Captain Crawford had taken up for me near the Youghiogheny, distant about twelve miles [in what is now Fayette county. Pennsylvania; Perryopolis is located upon this land]. ‘This tract, which contains about one thousand six hundred acres, includes some as fine land as ever I saw, and a great deal of rich meadow. It is well watered, and has a valuable mill-seat, except that the stream is rather too slight, and, it is said, not constant more than seven or eight months in the year; but on account of the fall and other conveniences, no place can exceed it. In going to this land, I passed through two other tracts, which Captain Crawford had taken up for my brothers Samuel and John. I intended to have visited the land which Crawford had procured for Lund Washington this day also, but time falling short I was obliged to postpone it. Night came on before I got back to Crawford’s, where I found Colonel [Adam] Stephen.” . . . On the 16th he wrote: “At Captain Crawford’s till the evening, when I went to Mr. John Stephenson’s [Crawford’s half-brother], on my way to Pittsburgh, and lodged.”

Crawford accompanied Washington down the Ohio to the mouth of the Great Kanawha, After an examination of the land some distance up the latter stream, they returned, reaching Crawford’s home on the 24th of November. Washington left for Mount Vernon the next day, the ground being covered with snow; hence the allusion to “the snow that fell,” in the above letter.




[13] George Croghan, a native of Ireland, first settled upon the Susque­hanna, where, in 1746, he was engaged in the Indian trade. He after­ward was agent for Pennsylvania among the Indians upon the Ohio and its tributaries, lie erected a fort at the site of the present Slur­leysburg, Huntingdon county, Pennsylvania. Early in the French War he was a captain; but, in 1756, he threw up his commission and repaired to Sir William Johnson, who appointed him a deputy Indian agent of the Pennsylvania and Ohio Indians. After Pontiac’s War, he lived at his settlement upon the east side of the Alleghany river, four miles above Fort Pitt., where, as Sir William’s deputy, he continued very efficient. Here, Washington visited him on the 19th of October, 1770.

[17]The purpose of Pendleton’s visit was to get the contract for the land that GW had agreed to sell him on 6 June. GW signed it on the following day, witnessed by Lund Washington, Valentine Crawford, and Jacky Custis (CctMMCH)

[18] Captain Crawford was born in Westmoreland County, Virginia, in 1722; had served in the Virginia Regiment with Washington in 1758, and took an active part in Pontiac’s War of 1763. He first went to the Youghiogheny to perfect his settlement in the summer of 1765, and the next year brought his wife and three children across the mountain to their new home. Washington first wrote him to pick out some good land for purchase in 1767, and also sought the aid of Colonel John Armstrong, at Carlisle, to secure surveys from the Penns for these western lands, as early as 1767, and also sought the aid of Colonel John Armstron, at Carlisle, to secure surveys from the Penns for these western lands, as early as 1767. Colonel George Croghan sought to sell Washinton larger tracts than Washington wanted, and was very insistent about it, and the former declined to purchase. As late as December 6, 1771, despite his seekin of land rights from the Penns, and even after Crawford became a justice in the courts of Bedford County, Washington disclosed the designs of Virginia by his letter to Crawford. Annals of Southwestern Pennsylvania by Lewis Clark Walkinshaw, Vol. I pg. 355


[19]By “the charter government” is here to be understood the government of Virginia. Washington’s idea was, that its jurisdiction wou’d soon be extended to the Ohio, with power to grant lands, etc. which, as yet, had not been the case.


[20] Dr. James McMechen (whose name is found frequently written McMahan or MeMahon) was an early settler upon the Ohio.
