Hi Jeff



This may help you



Susan



Judaism 101: Hebrew Alphabet





Susan, Excellent! I need all the help I can get. I have troubles with Z, N, and Vs. They all look the same to me and I don't see the difference in print. Oh well I guess it will just take practice. I bought a magnifying glass which helps but when I write the letters in English I cant write small enough. I will have to blow up the pages to make everything fit, and maybe that will help in deciphering the letters anyway. Yesterday we celebrated my daughter Jillians graduation from the University of Illinois School of Engineering. She begins work in January in the Masters program in Civil Engineering. I'm a proud pop! Jeff









This Day…

December 19, 324: Licinius abdicates his position as Emperor leaving Constatine I, “the first Christian Emperor” in control of the Roman Empire much to the detriment of the Jewish people.[1]



December 19, 1154: Coronation of Henry II, King of England. With the restoration of order under Henry II, conditions of the Jews improved markedly. Within five years of his accession Jews are found at London, Oxford, Cambridge, Norwich, Thetford, Bungay, Canterbury, Winchester, Newport, Stafford, Windsor, and Reading. Yet they were not permitted to bury their dead elsewhere than in London, a restriction which was not removed till 1177. Their spread throughout the country enabled the king to draw upon them as occasion demanded; he repaid them by demand notes on the sheriffs of the counties, who accounted for payments thus made in the half-yearly accounts on the pipe rolls (see Aaron of Lincoln). Richard "Strongbow" de Clare's conquest of Ireland in 1170 was financed by Josce, a Jew of Gloucester; and the king accordingly fined Josce for having lent money to those under his displeasure. As a rule, however, Henry II does not appear to have limited in any way the financial activity of Jews. The favourable position of the English Jews was shown, among other things, by the visit of Abraham ibn Ezra in 1158, by that of Isaac of Chernigov in 1181, and by the resort to England of the Jews who were exiled from France by Philip Augustus in 1182, among them probably being Judah Sir Leon of Paris. When he asked the rest of the country to pay a tithe for the crusade against Saladin in 1186, he demanded a quarter of the Jewish chattels. The tithe was reckoned at £70,000, the quarter at £60,000. In other words, the value of the personal property of the Jews was regarded as one-fourth that of the whole country. It is improbable, however, that the whole amount was paid at once, as for many years after the imposition of the tallage arrears were demanded from the recalcitrant Jews. The king had probably been led to make this large demand upon English Jewry by the surprising windfall which came to his treasury at the death of Aaron of Lincoln. All property obtained by usury, whether by Jew or by Christian, fell into the king's hands on the death of the usurer; Aaron of Lincoln's estate included £15,000 of debts owed to him. Besides this, a large treasure came into the king's hands, which, however, was lost on being sent over to Normandy. A special branch of the treasury, constituted in order to deal with this large account, was known as "Aaron's Exchequer". In this era, Jews lived on good terms with their non-Jewish neighbours, including the clergy; they entered churches freely, and took refuge in the abbeys in times of commotion. Some Jews lived in opulent houses, and helped to build a large number of the abbeys and monasteries of the country. However, by the end of Henry's reign they had incurred the ill will of the upper classes. The anti-Jewish sentiment fostered by the crusades, during the latter part of the reign of Henry, spread the anti-Jewish sentiment throughout the nation.[2]



December 19, 1187: Clement III elected Pope. Clement III was no friend of the Jews. In the aftermath of the First Crusaders violent march through the Rhine, Henry IV, the Holy Roman Emperor sought to allow Jews who had been forced to convert to return to Judaism. Pope Clement III opposed Henry on this insisting that the Jews, no matter how they had come to the Church, could not leave it. To his credit, Henry ignored the Pope. He went so far as to find those who had killed his Jewish subjects and bring them to justice. From the Jewish point of view, Henry was the exception to the norm among European Princes and Prelates. We should remember him for this and not for shivering in the winter as he did penance before an arrogant prince of the Church.[3]



December 19, 1370: Pope Urban V passed away. Urban issued a bull entitled “Sicuti judaeis non debet” that forbade the molestation of Jews and condemned the forced baptism of Jews.[4]



December 19, 1732

Freemason Benjamin Franklin’s Poor Richard’s Almanac is published, in Philadelphia.[5]



December 19, 1750: "Andrew Vance lived near Zane's Iron Works, Va., but he died in Lancaster Co., Pa. and is buried there in the Donegal Churchyard.

December 19, 1766

The English Parliament suspends the New York Legislature for voting against the Quartering Act.[7]



Dec/







1767 - Daniel McKinnon II of Clark Co., Ohio born April 19th, according to records of several descendants.[8]



I suggest that Daniel McKinnon’s parents were companions of William Crawford when he moved his family across the Alleghenies to Steward’s Crossing in 1766, based on Daniel’s birth date of 1767 and Crawford’s affidavit confirming the 1766 move of his family.[9]



I would like to obtain information which places Daniel’s parents

in Orange County, Virginia, and confirmation of the birth date of Daniel McKinnon; and also the relationship of McKinnon to William Crawford and Lawrence and Richard Harrison. Since Daniel McKinnon was 45 years younger than William Crawford, I am suggesting that Daniel’s father may have been the “close connection to Col. Crawford.” [10]

c. Evidence that Daniel McKinnon and William Crawford were associated appeared in the Logan County, Ohio, History on page 86 (Ref#6.1) “Mr. McKinnon was a close connection of Col. Crawford’s and moved to Kentucky where he lived a short time, and then came to what is now Clarke Co...”[11]

1767

In 1767 (Lawrence Harrison) bought 267 acres including Fort Necessity in right George Washington.

1767

“Lawrence Harrison, in right of George Washington, located’ 267 acres in Augusta County, Virginia, embracing Fort Necessity, in 1767.” [13]



The Crawford-Washington Deal

It appears to me very clearly that these settlers knew they were trespassing into Indian territory that had not been gained yet by treaty with the Indians. [14]The influence that George Washington had on these settlers was expressed in a book (Ref#34) entitled “West Virginia - A Bicentennial History.” On page 14 it explained that The deal that Washington offered Crawford in 1767 was representative of what became a familiar and mutually advantageous relationship.”

To Crawford, Washington had written “Any person who neglects the present opportunity of hunting out good lands, and in some measure marking and distinguishing them for his own, in order to keep others from settling them, will never regain it.”

Washington proposed that Crawford search out desirable lands while Washington took care of securing the titles and underwrote the cost of surveying and patenting. Washington said also “You (Crawford) shall then have such a reasonable proportion of the whole as we may fix upon at our first meeting....” and the article went on that “This was an arrangement that would be seen again and again in West Virginia”.

William Crawford knew George Washington quite well and no doubt put his trust and life on the line in business as well as in military endeavors for Washington.[15]



1767 Daughter Nancy born to Ann Connell. Letter from George Washington to Crawford to survey land in defiance of proclamation.[16]



1767



. By 1767 John Stephenson was a batteau man at the Fort Pitt trading post of Baynton, Wharton and Morgan.[17] A partner of the Philadelphia company, Samuel Wharton, had been a member of the Ohio Company, with John Mercer of Virginia.[18]

1767

Townshend Actsw passed; non-importtation boycott begins.[19]



1767: Ancestor and future Freemason and President Andrew Jackson (1767-1845) was born at the Waxhaw settlement in South Carolina.

1793 - December 19 - An act for opening navigation in the South Fork and Stoner's Fork of Licking was approved by the General Assembly. Benjamin Harrison, John Wall and Isaac Riddle were appointed Commissioners to receive subscriptions in money, labor and property to raise a fund for clearing and opening navigation of the South Fork, from the mouth thereof to the junction of Hinkston and Stoner. [22]

1793 – December 19 - Benjamin Harrison was appointed Brigadier General of the 4th Brigade, 2nd Division, Kentucky Militia, commanding the 12th, 13th, 14th and 15th Regiments from Scott, Bourbon and Mason Counties. [23]

1794

Dr. Knight eventually served as surgeon on another campaign against the Indians. In 1794 he accompanied General “Mad” Anthony Wayne to Northern Ohio where Wayne’s forces defeated the Indians at the Battle of Fallen Timbers. The ensuing Treaty of Greenville (1795) opened the lands of the Northwest Territory to white settlement and initiated the closing of them to Native Americans.[24]

1794: Although political prohibitions were lifted, other restrictions on Jewish equality remained. In 1794, Pennsylvania outlawed business activities on Sunday. The intent of the law was to honor the Christian Sabbath, but the effect on Jews was discriminatory. The law, in effect, limited observant Jews to working only five days per week, while Christans worked six. While Christians were free to open shops on the Jewish Sabbath, Jews were forbidden from opening their shops on the Christian Sabbath.[25]

December 19, 1806: At a public sale the land was struck off to the highest bidder - Richard Jones Waters for 420.00. Witnesses to the deed - George Ruddell, J. Culbertson. Acknowledged December 19, (1806?) by George Wilson, Sheriff. [26]

December 19, 1829: Johann Gutleben married Anna Maria BRAESCH, daughter of Mathias BRAESCH and Anna Maria LAMEY, on December 3, 1818. Anna was born in 1766 and died on December 19, 1829 at age 63[27]

Johann GUTLEBEN was born on June 4, 1765 in Metzeral,Munster,Colmar,Haut-Rhin,Alsace and died on February 10, 1838 at age 72. Johann married Anna Maria BRAESCH (d. December 19, 1829) on December 3, 1818.[28]

December 1917 : The British enter Jerusalem. The loss of both Bagdad and Jerusalem was a severe blow to the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East. “The news of ‘Jerusalem has fallen!’ spread like news of a death in the family.”[29]

December 1924: New Reichstag elections in December 1924 benefit the moderate parties. The SPD wins a lot of votes but prefers to remain in the opposition. The KPD remains strong despite some losses. The Nazi radicals under Ludendorff suffer a catastrophic defeat and are nearly wiped out. The centrist minority coalition now includes the rightist DNVP, which gives it a majority. Former Finance Minister Hans Luther (without party affiliation) becomes chancellor. The DNVP has a pragmatic wing, which supports Stresemann temporarily for economic reasons. But the right wing of the party resents participation in government and does everything to torpedo Stresemann. Tirpitz becomes a key figure in the DNVP's anti-Stresemann group. [30]



1936 Olympic Games



[31]

• December 1937: The special Jewish company was formed in the Palafox Battalion of the Polish Dombrowsky Brigade in December 1937. The company issued a Yiddish newspaper. The orders were written in Yiddish. It had a distinct Jewish banner, and the last stanza of the company's hymn proudly proclaimed "...how Jewish Botwin soldiers drove out the fascist plague!" The Botwin group was the only one in which Jews fought as a distinct group. Hence it became the major symbol of Jewish presence in Spain. In general, the International Brigades were utilized by the Popular Front as shock troops in the most dangerous places that drew the heaviest casualties. The Botwin Company was no exception - 120 of its men were thrown into an assault at the battle of Estramadura, in the defense of Madrid; only 18 survived. The company's courage earned it the "Medalla de Valor" from the Spanish government. Whatever motives brought volunteers of the International Brigades to Spain, with the Jews the ideological motive was dominant. Many of them may have been socialists or communists, but they clearly perceived that simultaneously they were fighting a sworn enemy of the Jewish people. The Jewish-Zionist angle was no less significant than the socialist-communist. It is no coincidence that the first casualty of the International Brigades was Leon Baum from Paris, and the last casualty was Haskel Honigstern, who was given a state funeral in Barcelona. The Spanish poet Jose Herrera wrote of him: "Haskel Honigstern, Polish worker of the Jewish race, son of an obscure land, killed in the light of my homeland." It is also no coincidence that when Juan Negrin, head of the Republican government, announced in September 1938 the unilateral withdrawal of the International Brigades from Spain for diplomatic reasons, the Botwin Company formed the rear guard of the troops as they withdraw across the border into France. Jewish participation in the Spanish Civil War put to a lie the assertion that Jews are by nature "timid and non-combative... that Jews did not resist the Nazi murderers because... submission is in their national character." When the first shots of World War II were fired, in the prologue of that ghastly war, Jews were not only present in overwhelming numbers, but they incontrovertibly proved their heroism.

December 19, 1939: The Nazi government officially gave Heydrich the responsibility for centralizing the implementation of his deportation plans. This was one of the basic steps in creating the organization that would lead to the slaughter of European Jewry. German efficiency and detailed planning was one of the hallmarks of the Final Solution.[32]



December 19, 1941

Adolph Hitler becomes commander in chief of the German Army.[33]



• December 19, 1941: In North Africa, British forces begin a battle that will end in their capture of Cyrenaica.[34]



December 19, 1942: After three weeks trapped in a synagogue by hostile Ukrainian troops, 42 Jewish men are marched to the Rakow Forest and ordered to dig ditches. They resist and are then shot. A few manage to escape. Later in the day, 560 more Jews are led from the synagogue to the forest and murdered.[35]

•

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.[36]

• December 1965: The nave of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome is filled with 2,300 churchmen from all over the world, who have gathered for the final session of the three year long Second Vatican Council in December 1965. [37]
