Linda, Thank you for the list of libraries that have "Our Grandmothers." It is through your dedication and hard work that this project was completed. I look forward to more in the future. I was in Nashville over the weekend for a Scottish Rite Reunion and got a chance to visit the Tennessee State Museum where they had a nice exhibit of Civil War or "War of the States" as they call it. Also a nice exhibit on ancestor Andrew Jackson, an exhibit on the Revolutionary War "Battle of Kings Mountain" (Vance line ancestor who was there and wrote about it), and a nice exhibit on ancient Paleo Indian artifacts. Btw Andrew Jackson was a Grand Master Mason at the Grand Lodge of Tennessee. Please keep in touch. Jeff Goodlove
This Day…
Henry III died on November 16, 1272. Edward succeeded to the throne without opposition - given his track record in military ability and his proven determination to give peace to the country, enhanced by his magnified exploits on crusade.[1]
Ancestors of Joan of Acre- Cnts. Gloucester
1272
Princess Joan of Acre[2]- Cnts. Gloucester, born 1272 in Acre, Palestine; died April 23, 1307 in Austin Friar's, Clare, Suffolk, England. She was the daughter of 2. King of England Edward I (Longshanks) and 3. Eleanor of Castille, "Cts de Ponthieu". She married (1) Earl/Gloucester3 Gilbert "The Red" 7th Earl de Clare "6th Earl" April 30, 1290 in Westminster Abby, London, England. He was born September 02, 1243 in Christchurch, Hampshire, England/Christchurch, England, and died December 07, 1295 in Monmouth Castle. He was the son of Earl/Gloucester Richard de Clare and Maud de (LACY) LACIE. She married (2) Baron Ralph de MONTHERMER (Earl Gloucester) January 1296/97. He was born in of Tonebrugge, Castle, Kent, England, and died in (35 yrs old).[3]
Two years later, following their return from the Middle East, Edward and Eleanor were crowned king and queen of England.[4]
In Edward's absence, a proclamation in his name declared that he had succeeded by hereditary rite, and the barons swore allegiance to him. Edward finally arrived in London in August 1274 and was crowned at Westminster Abbey. Aged 35, he was a veteran warrior ('the best lance in all the world', according to contemporaries), a leader with energy and vision, and with a formidable temper.
Edward was determined to enforce English kings' claims to primacy in the British Isles. The first part of his reign was dominated by Wales. At that time, Wales consisted of a number of disunited small Welsh princedoms; the South Welsh princes were in uneasy alliance with the Marcher lords (feudal earldoms and baronies set up by the Norman kings to protect the English border against Welsh raids) against the Northern Welsh based in the rocky wilds of Gwynedd, under the strong leadership of Llywelyn ap Gruffyd, Prince of Gwynedd. [5]
1277
In 1247, under the Treaty of Woodstock, Llywelyn had agreed that he held North Wales in fee to the English king. By 1272, Llywelyn had taken advantage of the English civil wars to consolidate his position, and the Peace of Montgomery (1267) had confirmed his title as Prince of Wales and recognised his conquests.
However, Llywelyn maintained that the rights of his principality were 'entirely separate from the rights' of England; he did not attend Edward's coronation and refused to do homage. Finally, in 1277 Edward decided to fight Llywelyn 'as a rebel and disturber of the peace', and quickly defeated him.[6]
1282
War broke out again in 1282 when Llywelyn joined his brother David in rebellion.
Edward's determination, military experience and skilful use of ships brought from England for deployment along the North Welsh coast, drove Llywelyn back into the mountains of North Wales.[7]
1284
The death of Llywelyn in a chance battle in 1282 and the subsequent execution of his brother David effectively ended attempts at Welsh independence.[8]
Under the Statute of Wales of 1284, Wales was brought into the English legal framework and the shire system was extended. In the same year, a son was born in Wales to Edward and Queen Eleanor (also named Edward, this future king was proclaimed the first English Prince of Wales in 1301).
The Welsh campaign had produced one of the largest armies ever assembled by an English king - some 15,000 infantry (including 9,000 Welsh and a Gascon contingent); the army was a formidable combination of heavy Anglo-Norman cavalry and Welsh archers, whose longbow skills laid the foundations of later military victories in France such as that at Agincourt.
As symbols of his military strength and political authority, Edward spent some £80,000 on a network of castles and lesser strongholds in North Wales, employing a work-force of up to 3,500 men drawn from all over England. (Some castles, such as Conway and Caernarvon, remain in their ruined layouts today, as examples of fortresses integrated with fortified towns.)
Edward's campaign in Wales was based on his determination to ensure peace and extend royal authority, and it had broad support in England. Edward saw the need to widen support among lesser landowners and the merchants and traders of the towns. The campaigns in Wales, France and Scotland left Edward deeply in debt, and the taxation required to meet those debts meant enrolling national support for his policies.[9]
In 1290 Edward I expelled all Jews from England.[10] This lasted 350 years. Many resettled to Holland.[11]

Daniel McKinnon placed the following advertisement in the November 16 1758 Maryland Gazette:
"Whereas I've lately begun to keep School at London Town, I give Public Notice, That I will Teach Grammer at four Guineas per Annm and all Gentlemaen who may be pleased to favour me with their Custom, may depend upon being served with Condour and Fidelity by Their most Jumble Servant
Daniel M'Kinnon[13]
(Londontown is in All Hallows Parish, Anne Arundel County and is located on the south shore of South River about halfway between the Chesapeake Bay and the head of the river.) [14]
Educational facilities in earlier days were very meagre, hence, the Rev. Daniel McKinnon had to rely upon his own ingenuity to supply missing needs. Mrs George Rogers, of Morgantown, West Virgina, has a valued relic, much faded and worn, a text book, prepared by the Rev. Daniel McKinnon, containing arithmetic tables, grammar rules, hymns, prayers, and quotations, in his own writing, for use in teaching his children.
Torrence documents only three female children born to the Rev. Daniel. It is our unproved contention that there were also sons, probably at least Joseph, Daniel, and Benjamin.[15]

2,900 Americans stood against a massive force of more than 30 regiments, including the renowned Black Watch and Coldstream Guards, Welsh Fusileers, and Hessians, supported by Light Dragoons and Royal Artillery. Lt. Battaile Harrison was killed on the second day of the assault, November 16, 1776, when Fort Washington was overrun.[19]

A view of the Attack against Ft. Washington, and Rebel Redoubts near New York on the 16th of November, 1776.[20]
November 16, 1776
Battle Harrison (Lawrence, Andrew,2 Andrew1), was doubtless christened Battaile, the family name, but as it was pronounced Battle he probably adopted this manner of spelling. He is listed a Lieutenant Battle Harrison, of Rawling ‘s Maryland and Virginia Rifle Regiment killed at Fort Washington, 16 November 1776.f The Muster Roll of Captain Hugh Stephenson’s Company of Riflemen of 1775-76, included Battle Harrison as a private In the battle of Fort Washington, Lieutenent Battle Harrison was the only officer killed, November 16, 1776. Lieutenant Battle Harrison commanded William Brady‘s Company of Riflemen at the Battle of King’s Bridge, or Fort Washington, November 16, 1776. The Harrison’s were prominent landowners in Berkeley County, Virginia, before the Revolutionary War. [21][22]
During the 1776 British attack on Fort Washington, “the rifles of the Americans became fouled by the frequent and long continued discharge,.” One period account notes. “Man after man found he could not drive home a bullet in the clogged barrel of his gun.”[23]

Franz Gottlop’s regiment was at the Battle of Fort Washington
The following two sources list the engagements of the von Mirbach regiment. More analysis of the engagements is needed. JG.
REGIMENT VON MIRBACH
(MIR plus company number)
The Regiment V. Mirbach departed on March 1, 1776 from Melsungen. It embarked from Breznerlehe on 12 May 1776 and reached New York on 14 August 1776. The regiment was part of the Hessian First Division and took part in the following major engagements:
-- Long Island (NY, 27 August 1776)
-- Fort Washington (upper Manhattan, NY, 16 November 1776)
-- Brandywine (PA, 11 September 1777)
-- Redbank (Gloucester County, NJ, also known as Fort Mercer, 22 October-21 November 1777)
The regiment departed from New York on 21 November
1783 and arrived at Breznerlehe on April 20, 1784.
They returned to their quarters in Melsungen on
May 30,1784.
Musketeer Regiment von Mirbach, to 1780: Musketeer Regiment Jung von Lossburg, 1780 to war’s end (Hesse Cassel) Arrived at New York August 1776 Sent on the 1777 Philadelphia campaign fighting at Brandywine and Red Bank, N.J. Returned to New York, December, 1777, and stationed there until returned to Germany, 1783. Uniform: Red facings trimmed with plain white lace, white small clothes, red stocks; officers’ lace, silver.
CHIEF: Major General W. von Mirbach, to 1780

FIELD COMMANDER: Lieutenant Colonel von Schieck, to October, 1777
Lieutenant Colonel H. von Borck, October, 1777 to war’s end.[25]
November 16, 1776
Their first contact with the enemy occurred at Fort Washington on November 16 and resulted in seven killed and 13 wounded. Following the battle the regiment marched back to New York. After a short short stay in
Perth Amboy it was quartered in Elizabethtown, New Jersey. On January 9, 1777 it returned to Perth Amboy. It was then moved to a camp on Staten Island when it was ordered to cover the right flank against American units positioned near Morristown. The unit remained in camp until October 20, 1778 when it boarded ship and sailed for Pensacola, Florida. Five ships of the line, 12 frigates and about 110 transport ships set sail on 3 November (November 3), stopping once en route at Kingston, Jamaica. The armada arrived at Pensacola on January 17, 1779. The first Waldeckers to be taken prisoner fell into the hands of the Spaniards on Lake Pontchartrain because they were ignorant of the state of war between Spain and
England. When Baton-Rouge capitulated, the first 53 prisoriers were joined by nearly half of the 1400-man garrison. The rest of the Waldeckers were sent to New York after the fall of Pensacola, having pledged never to fight the Spaniards again (May 1781). The Waldeckers encamped during September 1781 in Newtown, Long Island, in October 1782 in New York and on November went into winter quarters in Flatbush. A transport of recruits stayed in Halifax, Nova Scotia. On January 21, 1783 the regiment received new flags. The Waldeckers remained in Flatbush until the summer of 1783 and the return voyage from New York began on 25 July 1783 (July 25). [26]

November 16, 1777:
FROM THE DELAWARES
[Rev. David Zeisberger to General Hand. 3NN81-84—
Transcript.]
COOKING,[30] November 16, 1777.
Dr. SIR—As Capt. White Eyes is going to the fort, I will not omit to acquaint you how matters are here now with us. Since my last we have been quiet, & not any warriors have passed by here except a small party of Mohickons & now 8 days ago, 14 Wyandotts & two white men with them who came from Detroit; & as much as we know went to Weelunk [Wheeling], John Montour being in their company.
Some time ago, as we heard, 50 Frenchmen came over the Lake to Cuyahoga[31], & gave the Delawares and Muncys who live there the tomahawk, & desired them to go with them to Ligonier.[32] Capt. Pipe not being at home, they consented, & 40 men went with the French, but Pipe met them on the road, reproved the French for deceiving his people in his absence, & told them that they were only servants, & had no power to hand the tomahawk to them: Nobody could force him neither to take it—whereupon the greater part of the Indians turned back.
Capt. John Kilibuck & Pipe are gone to Detroit— upon what business Capt. White Eyes can tell you better. They did not desire me to write for them, so I suppose they did not approve of what you proposed to them.
The Shawanese—Cornstalk’s people, perhaps, will move from their place & come to Cuchachunk this winter. They lately sent messengers who consulted with the chiefs here about that matter; & as no messengers from hence are on their way thither, we shall soon hear what they are resolved to do.
Of the Mingoes we have heard nothing since the Half King [33]was here; & it seems as if they were tired of going to war, or rather frightened. We heard that after their last ret’1. they went over the Lake & asked the Wyandott Chief’s counsel & advice what they should do, because the Virginians would soon be upon them. The Wyandot Chief answered them, that they had begun the war, & had always encouraged others to go to war; they had now brought it to pass what they always had wished for; he therefore could give them no other advice than to be strong & fight as men.
Capt. White Eyes intends to stay at the fort two or three days, & wish you would let him return again as soon as possible, for none of the Counsellors are at home to do business, if any thing should happen; but if occasion should require to detain him longer, please to let the people here know of it that they may not be uneasy about him, for some apprehend because the Cornstalk is taken fast at the Kanhawa, White Eyes may be served so too: If he therefore stays out above the time he has appointed them, they will surely think so. The letter Gen’. Hand had sent to me last, the messenger lost. I suppose you will by this time have some news from before—if you can favor me with any you will much oblige Sir, Your Hble. Servt.

[31] The early Indian history of Cuyahoga River is obscure. Some of the Six Nations seem to have removed thither at an early date, and probably occupied the village denominated on Evans’s and Hutchins’s maps as “Cuyahoga Town.” It would seem likewise to have been the site of an Ottawa village and a French trading house; and may have been the “Rivière Blanche,” so frequently mentioned in the reports of the French officials, 1742-53. See Charles A. Hanna, Wilderness Trail (New York, 1911), i, pp. 315-339. George Croghan had a trading house in the vicinity in 1747, which seems to have been abandoned by 1750 for one on the Muskingum. During the French and Indian War there was an entire readjustment of Indian villages, but the Cuyahoga town is still shown on later maps. It would seem, however, to have been the abode of Delawares rather than of Mingo, and the inference from this letter is that it was the headquarters of Captain Pipe before his removal in 1778 to the Sandusky region. The Indians reported in the autumn of 1777 that the British were building a storehouse at Cuyahoga to supply the neighboring Indians with goods; but during the later years of the Revolution the region seems to have virtually been deserted. in the late autumn of 1782, Maj. Isaac Craig was ordered out from Fort Pitt on a reconnoissance to the mouth of the Cuyahoga, to discover if the British were there building a post. He reported on his return that there was no sign of occupancy—Washington Irving Correspondence, pp. 137-139; Draper MSS., iNNiii, 4SIo. In 1786 the Moravian Indians lived for a short time at the old Ottawa village, on the east side of the stream, just north of Tinker’s Creek, in Independence township; but the following spring they removed to Sandusky Bay. The preceding year, by the Treaty of Fort Mcintosh, the Cuyahoga had been made the dividing line between white and Indian territory. With the exception of an occasional wandering trader, this locality appears to have been unvisited thereafter until the settlement (in 1796) of the Western Reserve—ED.
[32] Fort Ligonier was built during Forbes’s campaign in 1758, on the site of a well-known Indian town, probably of Shawnee origin, on Loyalhanna Creek, just west of Laurel Hill. While the advance of the army was encamped there, the enemy attacked them, after having inflicted (Sept. 14, 1758) a severe defeat upon Grant’s skirmish line that had penetrated to the neighborhood of Fort Duquesne. The attack upon Ligonier was repulsed, and was the last battle between French and British in this section. A garrison was maintained at this point until after Pontiac’s War, when Fort Ligonier was besieged, and relieved with much difficulty. About 1765 the permanent garrison was withdrawn, and in 1766 Capt. Harry Gordon reported that the fort was much shattered and rotting away. He also mentions some inhabitants clustered about the fort. More would come, he says, if right of possession was secured—Hanna, Wilderness Trail, ii, p. 40. In 1769 a land-office was opened at Ligonier and settlers flocked in rapidly. The land on which the fort stood was patented to Gen. Arthur St. Clair. The ravages of the Revolution did not reach the Ligonier Valley until the summer of 1777, when Col. Archibald Lochry set about establishing a stockade fort at Ligonier, probably on the site of the former British fort. This was officially known as Fort Preservation, but ordinarily received the well-known appellation of Fort Ligonier. From this date until the close of the Revolution, Ligonier Valley was constantly exposed to the Indian ravages. Nov. 7, 1777, it was reported that all of the settlers had fled to a distance forty-two miles from Ligonier—Frontier Forts, ii, p. 245. The party to whom allusion is made in this letter is doubtless the one that attacked Fort Wallace: see ante. Palmer’s Fort, in Ligonier Valley, was likewise attacked and eleven persons killed and scalped, among whom was Ensign Woods; Penna. Archives, v, p. 741.—ED.
[33] In his Narrative, pp. 160, 161, Heckewelder describes a visit of Half King (for whom see Rev. Upper Ohio, p. g,, note 24) to the Delaware towns in August, 1777. The Wyandot having sent to the Delawares the war-belt, which the latter had refused, next dispatched thither their head-chief and a deputation of 200 warriors. The Delawares, especially the Christian Moravian Indians, were much alarmed at their approach; but all ended well, for the Half King made a covenant with the Christian Indians and acknowledged their chiefs as “Fathers”. He likewise agreed to leave the Delawares in peace, and permit them to retain their much-prized neutrality. ED.
