This Day …
January 2, 1012: Jewish mourners were attacked at a funeral in Egypt.[1]
January 2, 1481: An edict was handed down in Spain calling for all persons to aid in apprehending and accusing suspects who are guilty of heresy. This was said to be issued because persons of nobility in Andalusia were not true to the teachings of the Church.[2]
January 2, 1481: The officers of the Inquisition issued an edict to the governor of Cadiz and other officials to seize the possessions of the Marranos and to turn these conversos over to them or suffer excommunication, confiscation of their goods and deprivation of public office. [3]
January 2, 1492: The Reconquista was completed as the emirate of Granada, the last Moorish stronghold in Spain, surrendered to the forces under the command of Ferdinand and Isabella. The fall of Granada added even more Jews to Catholic Spain. Under the terms of surrender, the Jewish inhabitants were promised protection by the King and Queen. Within a few months these most Catholic Monarchs would break their word when Ferdinand ordered “the razing of the Jewish quarter. Nine months from the fall of Granada, the Sephardim will be banned from their ancestral homeland.[4]
January 2, 1554: A mandate promulgated today ordered that the Jews should leave the territory of Lower Austria at the end of six months.[5]
January 2, 1642: Birthdate of Ottoman Sultan Mehmed IV. As proof of the role that Jews played in his government, we find the Sultan appointing Moses Beben as ambassador to Sweden. When Moses passed away, the Sultan appointed his son Yehuda to serve in his place. At the time, Sweden was a major European power. Mehmed is also the Sultan who dealt with Sabbait Zivi, giving him the choice of conversion or death.[6]

George Washington, returning from a long and dangerous trip to the French Fort Le Boeuf, at Venango Creek, arrives back at Christopher Gist's plantation which is near present day Dunbar PA. His mission had been to deliver a message to the French asking them to remove their forces from the Ohio Territory. The French declined the request. [9]
January 2 1777
Colonel Donop with the Hessian grenadiers, the Jägers and light infantry were at Maidenhead. At noon Lord Cornwallis arrived with the whole army. In the evening the army set out towards Trenton.[10]
Colonel Edward Hand[11]
January 2, 1777
The next battle of that campaign came on January 2, when Lord Cornwallis, one of Howe’s generals, confronted Washington on Assunpink Creek near Trenton as night fell. The American position was precarious, but Washington had a few men keep the American campfires blazing during the night, while the patriot Army circled the enemy camp, attacked and defeated a British force at Princeton, and then retired before Cornwallis could bring his main army to the rescue. The American Army then went into winter quarters at Morristown[12], in a region protected by natural defenses of rocky hills. It was a location that threatened the enemy supply line if the British attempted any move toward Philadelphia…[13]

Richard Henry Lee to John Page
Dear Sir, Baltimore, 2d January, 1776 [i.e. 1777]
By the express lately sent from hence, I enclosed you both the printed accounts that we have had of the General's success against the enemy in New Jersey. Colonel Baylor, who brought us the General's letter, says that a party of Hessians more was brought in just as he came away, which makes the number of prisoners between one thousand and eleven hundred. Re-enforcements are daily going up, and in such numbers that the General intends to push the enemy, and we hope successfully, out of the Jerseys. The Hessian officers in general behaved infamously in this battle; and the British light-horse, with the Tories that were in town, scampered off at the beginning of the engagement. A few days before this attack, a flag was sent over to Trenton to this Colonel Rohl, now a prisoner: he received and treated the officer kindly; asked him if 'twas not reported that the Hessians plundered much, and that they were the only plunderers. The officer answering in the affirmative, Colonel Rohl replied that the English had address enough to have it so believed, but that it was notorious that the British officers and soldiers plundered more than the Hessians. Two British officers present denied it not. Soon after this rout, two thousand Hessians that were at Bordentown, below Trenton, on Delaware, marched off, having previously sent away one hundred wagons loaded with plunder, directly towards New York. If the Hessians are the smallest plunderers, what are the British? In truth, we hear that the people are enraged to a great degree at the brutal treatment they have met with.[14]
January 2, 1777
Thomas Nelson to Thomas Jefferson
Dear Jefferson Baltimore Jany 2d 1777 Colo. Zane delivered your Letters to me in this Town, and as I had it not in my power to execute what you desir'd, I gave them to him and desir'd he would negotiate the Bill and transact the other business, which he promis'd to do.
Our affairs have had a black appearance for the two last months, but they say the Devil is not so black as he is painted. We have at last turn'd the Tables upon those Scoundrels by surprize, as you will see by the enclos'd paper. It was very unfortunate for us, that Ewing and Cadwalader could not get over the River, for it is almost certain, that they would have surprized a large Detachment of Hessians at Mount Holly, and most probably they would have taken the greatest part of them. The Number of prisoners exceeds what the General makes them by 500. He is always very moderate. Could we but get a good Regular Army we should soon clear the Continent of these damn'd Invaders. They play the very Devil with the Girls and even old Women to satisfy their libidinus appetities. There is Scarcely a Virgin to be found in the part of the Country that they have pass'd thro' and yet the Jersies will not turn out. Rapes, Rapine, and Murder are not sufficient to rouse the resentment of these People. If they be not sufficient provocations I dispair of any thing working them up to opposition.[15]

Copy of the proceedings of the Commrs for adjusting the claims of the Officers & Soldiers of the Illinois Regiment to the Lands given them under a resolution of January 2, 1781 agreable to Act of Assembly passed October Session 1783.
January 2, 1782: The Tolerance Edict (Toleranzpatent) guaranteeing existing rights and obligation of the Jewish population, was enacted by Joseph II of Austria, the son of Maria Theresa. Joseph II was influenced by Wilhelm von Dohn, a friend of Mendelssohn's and beginning with this edict, followed a generally enlightened attitude toward the Jews. The Edict (with the final edict less liberal then the original), received mixed reviews by Jewish leaders including Ezekiel Landau and Moss Mendelssohn. They realized that the real intention of the edict was not the emancipation of the Jews but their assimilation. As further proof the new freedoms being granted to the Jews of Austria, Emperor Joseph II "permitted Jewish wholesale merchants, notables and their sons to wear swords" and "insisted that Christians should behave in a friendly matter towards Jews."[16]
January 2, 1788
Georgia becomes the fourth state to ratify the Constitution.[17] A year later, Georgia became the third state to remove religious discrimination from the political process. According to one reliable source, Jews had “held public office in Georgia even before the revision of the oath which included the words ‘upon the faith of a Christian.’” Jews had been a part of Georgia from the earliest colonial settlement with the first families arriving in July of 1733.[18]

[12] Col. William Crawford is listed as having served in the 5th Virginia Regiment, Feb. 13, 1776 and the 7th later that year. His campaigns include Trenton and Princeton. They surprised the Hessians at Trenton, Captured at least one thousand prisoners and killed their commander. The Americans escaped back to their camp with very few losses.
Washington moved his army in darkness; swiftly through the rural areas, falling upon the enemy troops near Princeton, taking more than 200 prisoners. Before Cornwallis could rally his forces, the Americans were safely stationed at Morristown Heights.
