This Day…



November 19, 1761

The military records show that John Dodson was inducted into by Lt. James Brice. This process took place February 5, 1778 in Annapolis, Anne Arundel County, Maryland. [1] Lt. James Brice was the son of Captain John Brice. St. John's parich register shows that on November 19, 1761 Sarah Bryce, the second daughter of Captain John Bryce of Annapolis, Anne Arundel County, Maryland was married to Richard Henderson. [2]This wedding took place while the McKinnon family was associated with St. John's parish. Thus it is likely that Eleanor knew the Brice Family and they could have acted to bring John Dodson and Eleanor (Howard) McKinnon together.



The register for the military unit being formed in Annapolis shows the following enlistments:



Name Rank Date Enlisted Date Discharged Remarks



Majors. Jno pbt February 4, 1778 August 16, 1881 Prisoner



Dodson John Pvt February 5, 1778 June 11, 1778 Discharged



Pringic. John Pvt 6 February 6, 1778 August 16, 1880 Missing



Rady. Laurence Pvt February 7, 1778 July 8, 1779 Deserted



Cheney. John Pvt February 10, 1778



Timms. Edward Pvt February 11, 1778 November 1, 1880 Present



Therefore it appears that John Dodson was not part of any group but rather enlisted himself on that date.[3]







George Washington Diary, while on Canoe trip with William Crawford (6th great grandfather) and William Harrison (5th great grandfather)



November 19, 1770. At the same place, & in the same Situation as yesterday.



November 19th, 1770.—The Delawares set off with the canoe, and our horses not arriving, the day appeared exceedingly long and tedious. Upon conversing with Nicholson, I found he had been two or three times to Fort Chartres, on the Illinois, and I got from him an account of the lands between this place and that, and upon the Shawanese river, on which he had been hunting.



NOVEMBER 19, 1773. (244) George Cutlip, witness from Botetourt. (I would
like to know more about this. Evidently the George Cutlip and wife Susanna
that lived in Dunmore County moved to Botetourt now Greenbrier County since we
have two 1773 dates, September (Dunmore) and November (Botetourt). This would
also mean that George, Jr., was first married to Susanna since he is always on record in Greenbrier County.[4]

By 1773 the East India Company was nearly bankrupt, with millions of pounds of unsold tea in its London warehouses.

The Tea Act was essentially a bailout of the East India Company. It levied no new taxes, although the three-penny tax on tea remained from before. Instead, the Tea Act gave the Company a one-shilling per pound subsidy on all tea sold in America. Now the Company could undersell the smugglers, and get rid of its surplus tea at a profit.

Bostonians would have none of it. In the first place, the Tea Act gave a monopoly to certain “consignees”, who all turned out to be Bernor Hutchinson’s close friends and relatives. The town’s merchants were outraged. If the royal officials could do this with tea, they could do it with other goods. No merchant of shop owner would be safe.

Furthermore, the Tea Act was seen as a ruse to get the colonist to pay the three penny tax which they had so long opposed. The cry “No tax on tea!” echoed through the streets and in town meetings.
The Tea Act, then, managed to offend everyone in town, even many who had supported the Crown before.
The consignees were “enemies of the country”;America, one writer opined, was “threatened with worse than Egyptian slavery.” Virtually no one, save the Governor and his cosignees, wished the tea to be landed.

Or as Abigail Adams put it, “The flame is kindled and like lightning it catches from soul to soul.” [5]


Letter from George Washington



November 19, 1776, at Hackensac [New Jersey].



I began this Letter at the White plains as you will see by the first part of it; but by the time I had got thus far the Enemy advance a Second time (for they had done it once before, & after engaging some Troops which I had posted on a Hill, and driving them from it with the loss of abt. 300 killed & wounded to them, & little more than half the number to us) as if they meant a genel. Attack but finding us ready to receive them, & upon such ground as they could not approach without loss, they filed of & retreated towards New York.

As it was conceived that this Manoeuvre was done with a design to attack Fort Washington (near Harlem heights)[6] or to throw a body of Troops into the Jersey’s, or what might be still worse, aim a stroke at Philadelphia, I hastend over on this side [New Jersey] with abt. 5000 Men by a round about March (wch. we were obliged to take on Acct. of the shipping opposing the passage at all the lower Ferries) of near 65 Miles, but did not get hear time enough to take Measures to save Fort Washington tho I got here myself a day or two before it surrendered, which happened on the 16th. Instt. after making a defence of about 4 or 5 hours only.

This is a most unfortunate affair, and has given me great Mortification as we have lost not only two thousand Men that were there, but a good deal of Artillery, & some of the best Arms we had. And what adds to my Mortification is that this Post, after the last Ships went past it, was held contrary to my Wishes & opinion; as I conceived it to be a dangerous one: but being determind on by a full Council of General Officers, and recieving a resolution of Congress strongly expressive of their desires, that the Channel of the River (which we had been labouring to stop for a long while at this place) might be obstructed, if possible, & knowing that this could not be done unless there were Batteries to protect the Obstruction I did not care to give an absolute Order for withdrawing the Garrison till I could get round & see the Situation of things & then it became too late as the Fort was Invested.[7]



November 19, 1787

Thomas Moore & wife Polly issues deed to David Lindsay for the sum of 51lbs seven shillings eight pence for 202 1/2 acres on Mill Creek. Moore warrants title and agrees that if title should fail, Moore to refund Lindsay a/a plus "legal interest from November 19, 1787 plus additional legal interest from the 1811 date.[8]

November 19, 1787

Thomas Moore & wife Polly issues deed to James Lindsay for the sum of 20lbs twelve shillings four pence for 81 1/4 acres on Mill Creek. Moore warrants title and agrees that if title should fail, Moore to refund Lindsay a/a plus "legal interest from November 19, 1787 plus additional legal interest from the 1811 date.[9]

Abraham Lincoln

Gettysburg Address, 1863



The victory of the Union troops in the battle of Gettysburg, in July of 1863, was a turning point in the war, halting General Lee’s momentous drive into the heart of the northern states. The losses suffered by both sides were astounding. Three days of brutal fighting left over fifty thousand soldiers dead or wounded. In the bloody after math, a cemetery was hastily planned and constructed on the site.

Months later, on November 19, an official ceremony was held to honor the dead and dedicate the cemetery to their memory. Popular speaker Edward Everett (1794-1865) gave a two hours long exercise in oratorical excess, after which President Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) was asked to give “a few appropriate remarks” for the occasion. His brief address was not received well at the moment, but over the years it has come to be considered one of the finest speeches in the English language. In a succinct, powerful manner, Lincoln conveyed a sense of awe and respect for the sacrifice made by the soldiers. At the same time he placed the tragedy in a larger context, presenting the vision of a great leader with the words of a poet.[10]





November 19, 1863

President Lincoln delivers his Gettysburg Address at the military cemetery on the Gettysburg battlefield.[11]



The Gettysburg Address

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great Civil War testing whether that nation, or any nation, so conceived and so dedicated,[12]

can long endure.

We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.



But in a larger sense, we can not dedicate…we can not consecrate…we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, who consecrated it, far above our power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion--- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vane--that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government: of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.[13]



In 1863, Governor David Tod of Ohio became worried about Lincoln’s safety. Tod, upon his return to Ohio, had a new unit raised for Lincoln’s security. [14]

In the fall of 1863, Gov. Tod organized a company for special duty at the White House in Washington, as a guard for the President. The company consisted of one man from each county in the State and was called the Union Light Guard (also known as the Seventh Independent Troop, Ohio Cavalry.)[15] The company was mustered in at Columbus on 12th of Dec. 1863. [16] By December 23, the “Union Light Guard,” also known as the Seventh Independent Troop, Ohio Cavalry, was ready and began heading to Washington. [17]



Sat. November 19, 1864

A nice day all quiet[18]



November 19, 1908



Mr. and Mrs. Dick Bowdish have moved into the W. H. Goodlove tenant house. (Winton Goodlove note:This would be the house across the road west of where Victor Liege now lives at 3974 Pleasant Valley Road. The same house my Grandad and Grandma Goodlove moved in when they were first married. The house where my dad was born?) W.D.G. (Not sure my Dad born in that house. His obituary reads that he was born on the farm where we lived when I was a child).[19]



November 1918

The flu ends. It killed 550,000 Americans in 10 months. It killed at 30,000,000 worldwide, while infecting the entire human species. As soon as the dying stopped the forgetting began.[20]



1919

During the negotiations in Paris to determine the German reparations to be paid because of their responsibility in WWI the Germans send three expert Jewish bankers named Notger, Worberg and Wasser feeling that they will ensure the best possible treaty. 500,000 Jews fought in the German army. [21]



The terms of the treaty are harsher than the Germans ever imagined. Germany will be paralysed for generations.



“Gentlemen,

We have no illusions about the extent of our powerlessness. We know the force of German weapons is crushed. We recognize the power of hatred facing us and we heard the passionate demand that the victors shall make us pay as the defeated ones and punish us as the conquered ones. We are expected to admit that we alone are guilty. For me, to make such an admission would be a lie. The treaty which our enemies have laid before us is, in so far as the French dictated it, is a monument of pathological fear and pathological hatred, and in so far as the Anglo-Saxons dictated it, it is the work of a capitalistic policy of the most brutal and capitalistic kind.



Brockdorff Rantzau



The German negotiators quit. After five months of negotiations, Italy’s government falls. Mussolini, is in. The mapmakers have redrawn the borders of Europe, the Middle East, the far East and Africa.



Two days before the signing, the Germans scuttle their entire fleet. Their pride wont let the Allies have their warships.



The Treaty of Versaille will be signed. It will be repudiated by the Germans. Germany will pay 10 Billion dollars. China will not sign. Wilson has alienated a half billion people. Vittorio Orlando does not sign, and does not get his port. Benito Mussolini promises to do better. Wilson returns to lobby for the League of Nations.

The Great War is finally over. [22]



November 1920



In a book published in 1920, after the end of WWI where Germany or anything German was despised because of the horrors brought on by a new style of war where cities with women and children were bombed and chemical weapons were used for the first time. The harsh reparations required of the German people and the financial chaos that ensued left the door wide open for the Nazi party, which would be called in to provide “order”.



This is the story of a German schoolboy, who with a bundle of books under his arm, one fine morning in April, 1776, was on his way to the High School of Cassell, the small capital city of the Grand Duchy of Hesse, when he was kidnapped by two soldiers of the Grand Duke Friedrick II, to be sold to King George III of England for service in the rebellious colonies of America. He was quickly taken by the soldiers to their barracks and so closely was he held prisoner that he never again saw his parents nor brother and sister. Nor would they let him go to bid his family farewell before he was shipped out by way of England to America.

This seventeen year old schoolboy was George Nicholas Spaht, the elder son of Michael and Cunegunda Spaht. He had one brother, Mathias and one sister, Charity. Why did not his parents protest against such tyranny? Autocracy is not a new development in Germany. History tells us that if a mother protested in a case like this she was thrown into prison; if the father protested, he was flogged. And they were not alone in their suffering. This same Grand Duke furnished 22,000 soldiers to the English King and many of them were obtained in the same way. The finances of the Grand Duchy were considerably augmented at the expense of the welfare and morality of the people, and the dissolute ruler kept up a splendid "Court" on the proceeds of the pay.

The Hessians were the victims of the tyranny of their rulers, who sold the lives and services of their subjects to the highest bidder. The English government was at that time the best customer. Large profits were realized by the petty princes who were willing to sell mercenaries for the war in the American colonies, as can be seen by examination of the contracts between the parties on either side, contracts which were not kept secret.--All told, the expense to England for the German mercenary troops was at least seven Million pounds sterling, the equivalent at present of one hundred and twenty to one hundred and fifty million dollars.--The greatest of the German princes did not allow his subjects to be sold. Frederick the Great used his influence against the sale of recruits in other German states and refused to allow mercenaries who were intended for the American service to pass through his domains," says Prof. Faust in his great work," The German Element in America." [8][23]



• Late October/Early November 1923: The German army deposes the leftist governments of Saxony and Thuringia (late October/early November 1923). The SPD, outraged because no similar step is considered against Kahr's (even more) refractory Bavaria, leaves the national government. A minority coalition continues in office under Stresemann.

• Inflation reaches record heights in November: 1 US dollar=4 Trillion marks. Germans see hyperinflation not only as an economic catastrophe but also as an expression of a huge moral crisis. [24]



• November 19, 1941: Erna Gottlieb, nee Edelheim born December 9, 1888. Resided Hamburg. Deportation: from Hamburg, November 19, 1941, to Minsk. Missing. Killed at Tuchinka? [25][26]





November 19, 1941

The British 7th Armoured Division suffers heavy casualties during an attack by the German 21st Panzer Brigade in North Africa.[27]



• November 19, 1942: Soviet forces begin a counterattack near Stalingrad.[28]



• November 19, 1943: The Sonderkommando 1005 prisoners in the Janowska camp revolt. Several dozen escape and the rest are killed [29]



• Late November 1942: The American Mercury and the Reader’s Digest were alone among mass-circulation magazines in bringing the extermination issue to public attention in the weeks following the revelations of late November 1942. Except for a few inconspicuous words on the UN declaration, such news magazines as Time, Life, and Newsweek over looked the systematic murder of millions of helpless Jews.

• The first clear comment on mass killing of Jews came on March 24, 1944.[30]

I Get Email!



I’ve never seen this one before. Very good. I’ll try to scan the one I have when I have a break. May not be very good as it is an original from a magazine called “Farm and Fireside,” March 1928.

[6] William Crawford is listed as serving in the 5th Virginia and later in 1776 in the 7th. In Harlem Heights, the Americans formed a stronghold and Gen. Howe moved up the Sound to gain another rear onslaught. From here, Washinton moved his army to a camp at North Castle. Howe, fearing the worst, ordered the Hessians to take Fort Washinton, which they did at a tremendous cost to the American army.

(From River Clyde to Tymochtee and Col. William Crawford by Grace U. Emahiser, 1969 pg. 142.)

[7] The grievous loss of men and supplies at Fort Washington must be laid at the Commander in Chief’s door. Washington had believed this last American stronghold on Manhattan should be abandoned; General Nathanael Greene, who was in command of the fort, wanted to defend it. Washington, as he so often did, yielded. His reluctance to impose his decisions was a flaw in leadership; it would disappear only as he came to recognize that since his was the ultimate responsibility, his must also be the final decision. Troubles multiplied. Reporting to the president of Congress on the situation in New Jersey, Washington had not finished his letter before he was forced to tell of a fresh disaster.
