I Get Email!





In a message dated 12/21/2010 4:24:40 P.M. Central Standard Time,

Good afternoon Jeffery;

Earl was not a Mason. I did talk with his son Willard, an active member of Level Lodge No 284, Central City, IA.

Hope this helps.

Karen



Karen, Thank you for all of your help. It is greatly appreciated. I look forward to visiting the Lodge where my grandfather was a member. I was also wondering if you might know if my gg grandfather William Harrison Goodlove or my ggg grandfather Conrad Goodlove was a Mason? Jeff Goodlove



This Day…



December 28, 1235: A ritual murder massacre at Fulda resulted in the death of 32 Jews. The Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire established an investigation at Hagenau (located in modern Alsac) to confirm or disprove the charges. After hearing various experts he declared that since Jews are prohibited from eating animal blood, they would surely be banned from using human blood. He forbade anyone from accusing Jews of this charge.[1]



December 28, 1703: Mustafa II, Ottoman Sultan passed away. During his reign, the Turks conquered Belgrade and the Jews returned to the city. Mustafa continue the practice of his predecessors and employed Jews a court physicians including Doctor Tobias Cohen and Doctor Israel Koenigland.[2]

1756

Alexander Vance2,Andrew1, was born in 1732. He died in 1756 when he and his wife were killed by Indians. Nothing of their children is known. [4]



In 1756 a chief of the MacKinnon clan died in the Tower of London after the defeat at Culloden Moor. Clan Seat: Strathardal in Skye.[5]



December 28, 1764

Richard Stephenson of the foregoing will, may have discovered the inevitable death knell as he began making his final arrangements, before March 21st, 1765. Three days after Christmas, in December of 1764, he deeded to his son, Richard Stephenson, Jr., a tract of land, which is recorded in Frederick County Court of Virginia. The witnesses were: John Slayton, William Crawford, Joseph Beeler, William McCormick and Hugh Stephenson. The will of Richard Stephenson, Jr., is recorded in present Berkely County, West Virginia, therefore the land deed to him by his father, may be located in that area. (Berkeley County was once a part of old Frederick County, Virginia).[6]





1765

Crawford had explored this land prior to 1765 because on Page 522 of the Fayette County History Book it states, “In that affidavit he (Crawford) says he began his improvements in the Yougheogheny in the fall of 1765; and moved his family to his new home in 1766.” The patent for his land was not issued until 1769. For some reason best known to himself, he did not take it out in his own name but caused it to be issued to his son, John. Again I believe the explanation for this is explained in the “deal with Washington” explained in a future chapter. [7]



One of Connellsville's First Veterans

The first white man in what is now Connellsville was William Crawford. He was a farmer/surveyor/soldier who was a friend of George Washington and had served with him in the Virginia militia. In the fall of 1765, he came over the mountains on horseback with his half-brother Hugh Stephenson. When they saw the beautiful meadow lands in the bend of the Youghiogheny River, Crawford decided to build his home there. The two men surveyed a tract of little over 376 acres and put up a log cabin. The next year, he moved his family into the cabin after a very hazardous trip over the mountains. Hannah, his wife, and their four children, had to follow what was little better than a path that was exceedingly rough and dangerous in places. As they had just pack-horses to carry their possessions, only the essentials could be brought along.[8]



1765 William Crawford begins improvements on lands in western Pennsylvania. Son James was born to Ann Connell.[9]



“That between that time (1758) and the year 1765, a number of settlements were made on the public roads I that country by permission of several commanding officers at Fort Pitt. That in the fall of the year, he made some improvements on the west side of the Allegheny mountains…”[10]



1765[11]

Lyman Draper obtained statements[12] that are useful to this study. Samuel Murphy was reared in the home of William Crawford’s half-brother, John Stephenson. Samuel Murphy remembered that John Stephenson, William Crawford, and the brothers Lawrence Harrison and Charles Harrison, crossed the mountains at the same time. William Crawford later deposedt[13] that he made homestead improvements on Youghiogheny in 1765, and that he brought his family there in the spring of the following year.[14] [15]



1765

The chief and his clan were, however, impoverished through confiscation and expenditure in the Stuart cause, and in 1765 the little property left to them was purchased by a scion of the house of Macdonald.[16]

By the 1765 census, the number of European Jews stood at about 800,000. [19]



1765

Stamp Act passed; riots occur in Boston and other cities.[20]

DECEMBER 28, 1776

We cannot avoid mentioning that we dont think it adviseable to exchange your Hessian Prisoners at this time. We think their Capture affords a favourable opportunity of making them acquainted with the Situation & Circumstances of many of their Country men who came here without a farthing of property & have by care & industry acquired plentifull Fortunes which they have enjoyed in perfect Peace & tranquility until these Invaders have thought proper to disturb & destroy those possessions. It will be proper to seperate the Officers from the Men & to Canton the latter in the back Counties which may be done by the Council of Safety untill the Congress are Consulted thereon. Your Excellency will excuse us for troubling you with our Sentiments on these matters & we think it necessary to appologize for doing so as its probable the whole has occurred to yourself. We remain with perfect regard & Esteem, Your Excellencys most Obedt. & most hble servants, Robt Morris Geo Clymer Geo Walton[21]

“Fort PITT, December 28, 1777.



“DEAR CRAWFORD :—As I expect the pleasure of seeing you in a few days, I shall defer communicating a matter I much wish to set on foot, until that time.

“There are at Cuyahoga, about one hundred miles from here, a magazine of arms and provisions, sent from Detroit, and fifteen batteaux lie there. You may guess the rest.

“Yours, etc.,

“EDWARD HAND[22].

December 28, 1778: The Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania held a procession in honor of St. John the Evangelist Day[24] –Some three hundred Brethren marched to Christ Church[25] in Philadelphia to ceremonies in which “His Excellency our Illustrious Brother George Washington, Esq.” participated.[26]



As commander of the Revolutionary army, Washington attended the initiations of his officers into the Brotherhood. Inside his field tent the regimental drum became an alter. Upon it were laid the three great signs of Masonry, the Bible, the compass, and the square. Almost half of all the officers in the American Army became Masons. Masonic Jewels were worn like medals. But being a Mason was more than just conections, Pomp and Circumstance. The Brotherhood was a family away from home, whose lives had been uprooted by war. Masonry also provides the hope that if you fall into the hands of the enemy, you get better treatment. [27]



I suspect that ancestors Colonel William Crawford and Major William Harrison, both officers for George Washington, were also Freemasons. I hope to confirm this by contacting the Grand Lodge’s of Virginia and Ohio.

Zachariah Connell came here a few years later. (Connellsville, after 1770) For a time he lived with the Crawfords on the New Haven side but in 1778 moved over to the Connellsville side, taking up a tract embracing the old borough limits and designated in the survey as "Mud Island." His first cabin stood a short distance from the river banks but he later built a stone house in West Fairview Avenue and reside there until his death in August 13, 1813. His body is buried just east of the city limits, surrounded by graves of a few relatives.[28]

1779 MAP OF THE EUROPEAN SETTLEMENTS IN NORTH AMERICA, [31]



In 1779, Col. John Bowman, commanding a force of 160 men, crossed the Ohio at the mouth of the Licking, and after a rapid march attacked the Indian town of Old Chillicothe, on the Little Miami. three miles north of Xenia. The attack was repulsed, and Col. Bowman capturing a sufficient number of ponies to mount his men, began a hurried retreat, being closely, pursued by the Indians until he recrossed the Ohio, having lost nine men in the expedition. In October of the same year, Col. David Rogers and Capt. Robert Benham, with 100 men, were passing down the Ohio, in two keel boats, and noticing Indians on the shores, Col. Rogers landed one-half his command for the purpose of attacking the savages. The whites were ambushed by about 500 Indians, a fierce battle ensued, but the odds were too great, and Rogers, with nearly all his men were tomahawked and scalped. Capt. Benham, with a few survivors, cut his way out and finally escaped, although the Captain was severely wounded and lay in the woods two days ere rescued by a passing boat.[32]



“December – At the Beginning of this month the Grenadier Brigade received orders to be prepared to embark and the following assignments were made: “Assignment of Transports for the Brigade of Hessian Grenadiers

December 28, 1828

The Tennessee legislature again nominated ancestor Andrew 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]

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.[34]



1829

At 19 Abraham Baer Gottlober remarried and moved to Podolia where, under the influence of Menahem Mendel Levin’s works, he began writing in Yiddish and in Hebrew. [35] He married again, but found his second wife unbearable and soon divorced her.[36]
