Jeff,



On Saturday, October 30, 2010, the Opera Company of Philadelphia brought singers together from 28 participating organizations to perform one of the Knight Foundation's "Random Acts of Culture" at Macy's in Center City Philadelphia. Accompanied by the Wanamaker Organ - the world's largest pipe organ - the OCP Chorus and throngs of singers from the community infiltrated the store as shoppers, and burst into a pop-up rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's "Messiah" at 12 noon, to the delight of surprised shoppers!!!


Hope you enjoy this.......

This Day…

December 164 BCE

• Temple rededicated.[1]

• The Hasmoneans, descendants of Mattathias, established themselves as kings of an independent Judea. But Mattathias had been only a minor religious leader, not a descendant of the high priests of the Temple. To interpret Jewish law and assist the Hasmonean ruler of new council, the Sanhedrin, was formed to have jurisdiction over religious matters as well as civil and criminal cases.[2]

161 BCE

• Rome has the longest continuing Jewish community in the world.[3]

• Israel asks the Romans to help cut off the invading Syrians. After helping to defeat the Syrians the Romans decided they did not want to leave. They started taxing the Israelites and none more so than the Galilean’s. [4]

In December 1095 the Jewish communities of northern France wrote to their co-religionists in Germany to warn them that the Crusading movement was likely to cause trouble to their race. There were reports of a massacre of the Jews at Rouen. It is unlikely that such a massacre in fact occurred; but the Jews were sufficiently alarmed for Peter the Hermit to bring off a cussessful stroke of business. Hinting , no doubt, that otherwise he might find it difficult to restrain his followers, he obtained from the French Jews letters of introduction to the Jewish communities throughout Europe, calling upon them to welcome him and to supply him and his army with all the provisions that he might require.[5]

About the same time Godfrey of Bourillon, Duke of Lower Lorraine, began his preparations to start out on the Crusade. A rumour ran round the province that he had vowed before he left to avenge the death of Christ with the blood of the Jews. Tnh terror the Jews of the Rhineland induced Kalonymos, chief Rabbi of Mainz, to write to Godfrey’s overlord, the emperor Henry IV, who had always shown himself a friend to their race, to urge him to forbid the persecution. At the same time, to be on the safe side, the Jewish communities of Mainz and Cologne each offered the Duke the sum of five hundred pieces of silver. Henry wrote to his chief vassals, lay and ecclesiastic, to bid them guarantee the safety of all the Jews on their lands. Godfrey, having already succeeded in his blackmail, answered that nothing was further from his thoughts than persecution, and gladly gave the requested guarantee.

If the Jews hoped to escape so cheaply from the threat of Christian fervor, they were soon to be disillusioned[6]

December 1, 1660

The English Parliament passes the first Navigation Act, designed to govern colonial trade.[7]

December 1681

December 1st. Reached home[8]; having been absent nine weeks and one day.[9]



The account of the expenses of this venture included 25 pounds paid to Capt. Crawford for his loss of time and accompanying George Washinton with this surveying party to the Great Kanawha River area.



Keeping account of the places, people and events, Washinton provides us with information concerning Col. William and Valentine Crawford, which is most interesting, giving account to the last shilling. The list of expenses is on record.[10]

On December 1, 1758, the ruins of Fort Duquesne were officially renamed and from then on the Forks of the Ohio was called Pittsburgh. A temporary fort was built c1758-59 near the Monongahela River to house troops under the command of Colonel Hugh Mercer, and was called Mercer's Fort, see Brown, No. 35. This was followed by Fort Pitt begun c1759, which took several years to build. It was abandoned by the British in 1772, taken over by Virginians in 1774 and renamed Fort Dunmore. It was again abandoned when the new Fort Fayette was constructed in 1791-92. This newer fort was used by General Anthony Wayne during the Indian wars in the Northwest Territory.[11]





1770

Mary Ann Godlove, born about 1770, is in the 1840 U. S. Census for Hardy County (age 60-70). She fits the oldest of the age categories for females in Francis household in the 1810 census (age 26-45, born 1765-1784) and 1820 (age 45 or above,

born before 1775). In 1830, the oldest female in Francis household was aged 60-70 (born 1760-1770). Mary Ann possibly was Francis second wife: she was about twenty-two years older than any of Francis children living at home in 1810, but she was too young to be the mother of John and probably too young to be the mother of Conrad. [12]

Eight survey tracts
along the Kanawha River,
1774?






Eight survey tracts along the Kanawha River, W.Va. showing land granted to George Washington and others. [14]

George Washington to Lord Dunmore, December 1, 1773, …In consequence of this order, and of Capt. Crawford’s qualification as a Surveyor, he was appointed to run out this 200,000 acres of Land; and having given Bond in the usual and accustomed form, to the College proceeded to the business, and making his returns to the Secretary’s office, Patents have been issued under your Lordships signature and the seal of the obony, ever since the first of December 1773. Would it not be xceedingly hard then, my Lord, under these circumstances, at his late day, after we had proceeded in all respects agreeably to he orders of Government and after many of us have been run :0 great and considerable expence, to declare that the Surveys Ire invalid? It appears in so uncommon a light to me, that I 3ardly know yet how to persuade myself into a belief of the reallity of it, nor should I have given your Lordship any trouble on the subject at this time, but for the importunity of others, and from a desire (as I shall leave home the first of May) of knowing if the account be true, what steps the grantees, under the afore-mentioned Proclamation, are further to take.

I beg your Lordships excuse for the length and freedom of this epistle. I am persuaded you possess too much candour yourself to be offended at it in others, in relating of facts, especially, as I profess myself to be, with the utmost respect, etc.[15]

Strength Estimates of American Forces

December 1, 1776: estimated totals “not 3,000 men”

This is an estimate of the Continental army at New Brunswick, New Jersey, on December 1, 1776. It was made by General Nathanael Greene, who wrote to Governor Nicholas Cooke of Rhode Island, “when we left Brunswick we had not 3,000 men, a very pitiful army to trust the liberties of America upon[16]

December 1, 1777

Now the Regiment von Mirbach is to sail to New York. As his Excellency General Howe would like to drop the word “Combined” and wishes to have the strongest regiment separated from the two weaker ones, I suppose this will be done.

Lieutenant Colonel von Minnigerode, Captains von Stamford (von Linsing) and Hendorff are out of bed, as is also Ensign Berner, whose wound in the left leg at first seemed very threatening.[18]



December 1799

Question by Bill LeClere: Can anyone help me find the name of the cavalry (horse) regiment which was bodyguard to Napoleon in 1799 in Austria? My ancestor Joseph was one of the few to survive the defeat of this regiment when it was sent forward and cut off by the Austrians in December 1799. The name of the regiment is needed if I am to locate his military records. All help is appreciated.[19]

Answer by Jeff Hannan: In November 1799 Napoleon was in Paris leading the coup d’etat from which he became Consul. Christmas 1799 he became 1st Consul.

As for his bodyguard, there was his personal one “the Guides a cheval”, [Company of mounted guides] formed in May 1796 following a raid by Austrian Hussars at [disputed depends what you read] from which he only just evaded capture.

Once he became 1st Consul he merged the Guides with the Gard du Directoire [Guard of the Directory] and others to become a single unit consisting of infantry and cavalry the Gards des Consuls [Guard of the Consulates] that would later became the foundation of the Imperial Guard. Following the merger the Guides were renamed as the Escadron de Chasseurs-a-Cheval de La Gard Consulair [Company of light cavalrymen of the Consular Guard] then later the Chasseurs a Cheval de la Garde Imperiale [light cavalrymen of Imperial Guard], one of several cavalry units of the Imperial Guard. Early in 1800 Napoleon started his Italian campaign and the Gardes des Consuls would be involved [infantry and cavalry] in the Battle of Marengo(June 14, 1800) from which the Guard became famous and it appears it was the renamed “the Guides a cheval” company that was present during the battle and led one of the final cavalry charges that contributed so much to Napolean’s victory. Perhaps that is the battle your ancestor was involved in. [20]

December 1, 1808: mOrdered that Daniel McKinnon be allowed Eight Dollars and ninety cts for his Services done for the County from the first of December 1808 till February 1, 1809 Summoning the grandjury at January Term 1809.[21]

December 1814

The British southern prong targeted New Orleans, the greatest seaport on the American continent in the early 19th century. With New Orleans in their pocket, the British would control the entire Southern coast, along with much of the Mississippi River. In early December 1814, Ancestor Maj Gen. Andrew Jackson, commander of American forces along the Southern coast, was frantically cobbling together an army to stop the might British invasion force of 8,000 troops.[22]

December 1832

In response to South Carolina's nullification claim, Ancestor, Freemason, and President Andrew Jackson vowed to send troops to South Carolina to enforce the laws. In December 1832, he issued a resounding proclamation against the "nullifiers," stating that he considered "the power to annul a law of the United States, assumed by one State, incompatible with the existence of the Union, contradicted expressly by the letter of the Constitution, unauthorized by its spirit, inconsistent with every principle on which it was founded, and destructive of the great object for which it was formed." South Carolina, the President declared, stood on "the brink of insurrection and treason," and he appealed to the people of the state to reassert their allegiance to that Union for which their ancestors had fought. Jackson also denied the right of secession: "The Constitution... forms a government not a league... To say that any State may at pleasure secede from the Union is to say that the United States is not a nation."[23]

December 1, 1862 (Abraham Lincoln)

Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history.

The way is plain, peaceful, generous, just.

A way which, if followed, the world will forever applaud, and God must forever bless.

One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh,

But the earth abideth forever.[24]

1863

How much money did the Civil War cost the U.S. government each day? According to a report released by the U.S. Congress in 1863, the financial cost of fighting the war was $2.5 million a day.[25]

December 1863 to July 1865

The only tangible remains of the Rock Island Barracks is the Confederate Cemetery. The Rock Island Barracks was one of 21 prison camps operated by the Union. From December 1863 to July 1865, 12,192 Confederate prisoners were held at the prison camp. A total of 1,960 prisoners died. Each gravestone identifies the individual soldier, his company, and his unit.

The National Cemetery Administration maintains the Confederate Cemetery. [26]

Among the Confederates who were imprisoned at Rock Island were Anthony Baker (23rd Va. Cavalry) and Lemuel Brill (18th Va. Cavalry), grandsons of Francis Godlove (Franz Gottlob).[27]

December, 1949

When Israel’s War of Independence began, Jews controlled less than 7 percent of Palestine; after the Jewish victory, at the signing of an armistice in December 1949, they occupied about 80 percent of the land. More than 500,000 Palestinians were made refugees. The Zionist belief in the Jewish biblical inheritance was affirmed in Israel’s Declaration of Independence. “The Land of Israel…was the birthplace of the Jewish people,” it begins. “Here their spiritual, religious and political identity was shaped.” The document includes an unequivocal declaration of a right of return to a Jewish homeland: “This right is the natural right of the Jewish people to be masters of their own fate, like all other nations, in their own soverign State,” it declared. As Moshe Dayan, the great Israeli general and military chief of staff, would later say, the Third Temple, the State of Israel itself, was finally a reality.[29]

Jeff,

Thankyou. That would be fantastic. If you are interested, my son -in-law did a documentary on my life for my 80th birthday. It also includes performances by me and most of my family members. It is in three parts on You Tube. Just go to Bill Nemoyten The Hornman. I hope you enjoy it.

Bill



Bill, I just had time to watch the first one and half of the second tape. What a career you have had and such a talented family. My dad played the trombone and I played the trumpet through college, then continued singing which I still do! Maybe its in the DNA:) I passed a portion of the Gottlober book on to my friends who while fluent in Hebrew, cant speak Yiddish. Apparently it is not taught in school, it being a combination of German and Hebrew. Fortunately, Jeff P's father speaks Yiddish so I am going to start there. I went to Bablefish (a computer translater) and while it can translate chinese to english, they cant translate Yiddish to English. Go figure. Jeff

He assumed responsibility for pressing the claims of the veterans of 1754 and had the land surveyed. Grants were made according to rank; Washington, a colonel, received fifteen thousand acres (and bought the grants of two other men for another fifty-six hundred acres).

This version of William Scull's 1770 map was published by Georges Louis le Rouge in Atlas Ameriquain Septentrional, Paris c1778, and is the French version of the map from Thomas Jeffreys' The American Atlas published by R.

The original 1770 map is reproduced in Fite & Freeman, Ristow, and Schwartz & Ehrenberg, and this version closely resembles the original. The map is large (26 x 52 inches) and only the regions around Pittsburgh and Lancaster are shown here. William used information about western Pennsylvania gained during the French and Indian War to update his grandfather Nicholas Scull's 1759 map. Thus, the locations of Braddock's defeat and Bouquet's victory are shown near Pittsburgh, but not much else. By contrast, the region around Lancaster and York is filled with the names of towns and other features. Blank verso. Scale: 1" = 6 miles.
