This Day…

February 9, 474: Zeno was crowned as co-emperor of the Byzantine Empire. “The feeling of Emperor Zeno towards the Jews is illustrated by a remark made at the races of Antioch. After a mob murdered many Jews, threw their corpses into the fire, and burned their synagogue Zeno commented, ‘They should have burned the living ones also.’”[1]

In 476, Odoacer the Scirian, the commander and elected king of the German troops in the former Roman Empire, deposed Romulus Augustus, ending nearly one thousand years of Roman dominance in the Mediterranean. The defeat caused difficult times for gentile and Jew alike, sending many people north into Europe to seek a safer, more stable life.[2]

476 A.D.

After the Roman Empire collapsed in 476, causing the withdrawal of the Roman military from Britain, the gospel was spread though the efforts of Celtic missionaries sent out from the theological school founded by Columba on the little island of Iona near the coast of Scotland. [3] The fall of the Roman Empire in 476 sent Europe plunging into the darkness of the Middle Ages, a darkness made all the deeper by the absence of a Bible that was understandable to the masses. Latin eventually became a deead language to the common layman, the result being that the Bible became a closed book. Few laymken knew enough Latin to understand the verses the priests would read at Mass. Many of the priests knew just enough Latin to mumble through their liturgies.
The Bible remained a venerated book but a closed book, and would remain so for centuries to com.[4]

Great cities fell into ruins, roads became overgrown with weeds, trake collapsed, and the wide spread rule of Roman law ended. For almost a millennium the people of Europe huddled together for protection in small towns and villages in the countryside. Most barely eked out an existence from the soil, as war, disease, and famine routinely spread over the land.[5]

February 9, 1119: Calixtus II was named Pope. During his twenty five years on the papal throne, Calixtus II “provided a considerable amount of protection for Roman Jews.”[6]



1119

Parallel to the Hospitalers, the Order of the Temple was established in 1119. [7] The Knights Templar starts with nine noblemen in 1119.[8]

February 9, 1621: Gregory XV was elected Pope. Gregory’s support of the censorship of Jewish books can be seen in the fact that during his brief papacy (1621-1623) at “least three expurgators of Hebrew books were appointed by the Roman Inquisition: Vincentius Matelica, 1622, "auctoritate apostolica"; Isaia di Roma, 1623, "per ordine di Roma"; and Petrus de Trevio, 1623, "deputatus" (officially appointed to revise books).”[9]

February 9, 1749: Benedict XIV issued a papal bull, “Singulari Nobis consoldtioni” that prohibited marriages between Jews and Christians.[10]



February 9, 1773: Another famous relative born on this day, ancestor and President William Henry Harrison is born at Berkely Manor, near Richmond, Virginia. [11] February 9, 1773, William Henry Harrison is born at Berkely Manor, near Richmond, Virginia. [12] Harrison went on to serve as the ninth U.S. president for a brief 32 days in 1841, the shortest term ever served. Harrison is also credited with the record for the longest inaugural address in history. Delivered on a bitterly cold March morning, it clocked in at one hour and 45 minutes. He was also the last president to be born an English subject.

A native of Virginia, Harrison grew up in a wealthy, politically active household--his father served as governor of Virginia for three terms. He attended college with the intent of studying medicine, but opted to join the army before finishing his degree. As a soldier, Harrison earned a reputation for bravery for his participation in the Indian Wars of the Northwest Territories and the Battle of the Thames River in Ontario during the War of 1812. John Adams appointed Harrison secretary of the Northwest Territories (present-day Indiana and Illinois) in 1798 and shortly thereafter he accepted Adam's offer to serve as the region's governor.

In 1811, Harrison earned the nickname Old Tippecanoe after leading a brutal, but successful, attack against Tecumseh's Shawnee tribe at Tippecanoe Creek in what is now Indiana. As governor, Harrison drew up several restrictive and one-sided treaties with Native American tribes who held desirable land. In one of his stingiest treaties, he agreed to pay a tribe a mere one cent for every 200 acres, a deal which gave the United States 51 million acres for a pittance and opened a wide swath of the West to white settlement.

Harrison married Anna Tuthill Symmes in 1795. The couple had eight children of their own; Harrison also adopted Anna's son John from a previous marriage. Six of his children died prior to Harrison's campaign for the presidency. Daughters Mary and Elizabeth survived their father, but only by several years. His last remaining child, Anna, died in 1865.

Boosted by a successful military and political career, which included stints in the U.S. Congress, Ohio Senate and as U.S. ambassador to Colombia, Harrison ran for president in 1840, choosing John Tyler to run with him on the Whig Party ticket. Much to the horror of the political establishment, the two men campaigned vigorously, setting the tone for future campaigns. They employed catchy campaign slogans such as Tippecanoe and Tyler, too, and held boisterous rallies during which they handed out free bottles of hard cider housed in little log cabin-shaped bottles.

Harrison caught a cold on the day of his inauguration that lingered, eventually turning into a fatal case of pneumonia. Some historical records indicate that doctor-prescribed remedies for the pneumonia also gave Harrison a deadly case of hepatitis. He died on April 4, 1841, leaving behind his widow Anna and three surviving children. His grandson, Benjamin, followed in Harrison's political footsteps, serving a full term as president from 1889 to 1893.[13]

February 9th, 1774: From the Journal of George Washington, another future president and father of our country hangs out with his boyhood friend and Gary’s 6th great grandfather …

George Washington: At home all day. In the Afternoon Mr. Matthew Campbell & Captn. Crawford came. [14]



February 9, 1775

The British Parliament declares the Colony of Massachusetts to be in a state of rebellion.[15]

February 9, 1807: Napoleon convened the French Sanhedrin. The first meeting in Paris of the Napoleonic Sanhedrin was under the leadership of The Assembly of Jewish Notables. It opened amid great pomp and celebration under the direction of Abraham Furtado. The Sanhedrin was modeled on the ancient Tribunal in Jerusalem and consisted of 71 members - 46 Rabbis and 25 laymen. Rabbi David Sinzheim of Strasburg was its President. They were presented with 12 questions regarding the positions of Jewry regarding polygamy, divorce, usury, other faiths, and most important whether they considered France to be their Fatherland. Needless to say, they received "guidance" from the emperor as to the general formulation of the answers.[16] Ancestor Joseph Lefevre, who would soon come to Dubuque, Iowa was said to have been in Napoleon’s body guard unit.

February 9, 1808: In Westphalia, a large delegation of Jews visited King Jerome, the brother of Napoleon to express their thanks for his granting them full emancipation. During the audience he told them: Tell your brothers to enjoy the rights that were granted to them. They can depend upon my protection on a par with the rest of my children."[17]



February 9, 1825: As no presidential candidate received a majority of electoral votes in the election of 1824, the U.S. House of Representatives votes to elect John Quincy Adams, who won fewer votes than Andrew Jackson in the popular election, as president of the United States. Adams was the son of John Adams, the second president of the United States.

In the 1824 election, 131 electoral votes, just over half of the 261 total, were necessary to elect a candidate president. Although it had no bearing on the outcome of the election, popular votes were counted for the first time in this election. On December 1, 1824, the results were announced. Andrew Jackson of Tennessee won 99 electoral and 153,544 popular votes; John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts received 84 electoral and 108,740 popular votes; Secretary of State William H. Crawford, who had suffered a stroke before the election, received 41 electoral votes; and Representative Henry Clay of Kentucky won 37 electoral votes.

As dictated by the U.S. Constitution, the presidential election was then turned over to the House of Representatives. The 12th Amendment states that if no electoral majority is won, only the three candidates who receive the most popular votes will be considered in the House.

Representative Henry Clay, who was disqualified from the House vote as a fourth-place candidate, agreed to use his influence to have John Quincy Adams elected. Clay and Adams were both members of a loose coalition in Congress that by 1828 became known as the National Republicans, while Jackson's supporters were later organized into the Democratic Party.

Thanks to Clay's backing, on February 9, 1825, the House elected Adams as president of the United States. When Adams then appointed Clay to the top Cabinet post of secretary of state, Jackson and his supporters derided the appointment as the fulfillment of a corrupt bargain.

With little popular support, Adams' time in the White House was for the most part ineffectual, and the so-called Corrupt Bargain continued to haunt his administration. In 1828, he was defeated in his reelection bid by Andrew Jackson, who received more than twice as many electoral votes than Adams.[18]

1825: Russian Poet and author, Abraham Baer Gottlober, when at the age of fourteen (born January 14, 1811) he married the daughter of a wealthy “Hasid” in Chernigov, and settled there. When his inclination for secular knowledge became known, his father in law, on the advice of a Hasidic rabbi, caused the young couple to be divorced, and Gottlober, who had joined the Hasidim after his marriage, now became their bitter enemy. [19]

February 9, 1865: Dr. William McKinnon Goodlove (1st cousin, 3 times removed) a soldier in the 57th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, South Edisto River, February 9, 1865.[23]



February 9, 1898

Thomas Wilkinson Jr. and his sister Emma were in Cedar Rapids last Thursday.[24]



1899

In a famous Harper’s Magazine article published in 1899, Mark Twain noted with some amazement that world Jewry, but 0.25 percent of the human race, was “a nebulous dim puff of stardust lost in the blaze of the Milky way. Properly, the Jew ought hardly to be heard of; but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his importance is extravagantly out of proportion to the smallness of his bulk…What is the secret of his immortality?” he asked.[25]



1899

Houston Stewart Chamberlain, racist and anti-Semitic author, publishes his ‘Die Grundlagen des 19 Jahrhunderts’ which later became a basis of National-Socialist ideology.[26]



1899

Blood libel in Bohemia (the Hilsner case).[27]



February 9, 1909: On this date in 1909, Harry S. Truman received his 1st degree in Belton Lodge #450, Missouri.[28]



February 9, 1926

The Board of Education in Atlanta, Georgia, prohibits the teaching of Darwin’s theory of evbolution in the public schools.[29]





1927

In his 1927 essay, Why I Am not a Christian, the philosopher Bertrand Russell stated that “historically it is quite doubtful whether Christ ever existed at all, and if He did we do not know anything about him.”[30]

We also celebrate our ancestors coming to America, for if they had not, no doubt we would have perished like so many others. Through Gary Goodlove’s discovery of the unique Goodlove/Cohen DNA we know of our Jewish ancestry. Through Gary and Mary’s ancestry research we know a lot more about our ancestry, our history, and the history of world.



Convoy 46, February 9, 1943



On board Convoy 46 was Boruch Gotlieb, born 1885 from Siedlec, Poland.[31]



For nearly two months the transports had been interrupted. Eichmann and the SiPo-SD in France made a reckoning of the situation in December and of the picture for deportations for the beginning of 1943 (XXVc-184 of December 9, 1942; and XXVI-69 of December 19). On December 31, Knochen cabled Eichmann (XXVI-69) to the effect that the deportations would be resumed again in mid-February, without knowing the exact number of Jews to be affected by this measure. But on January 21, 1943, Knochen cabled Eichmann once more (XXVc-195). He asked him what the possibilities were for the transport of 1,200 Jews eligible for deportation. He indicated that 3,911 Jews were interned in Drancy, among them 2,159 Frenchmen. Finallly he asked; are French Jews eligible for deportation?



On January 25, 1943 Gunther, Eichmann’s assistant, replied (XXVI-70) that the Reich’s Transportation Ministry had given the green light for the transport in freight cars of 1,500 to 2,000 Jews from Drancy to Auschwitz. There was no objection, cabled Gunther, to the deportation of French Jews if it were undertaken in accordance with the guidelines for the evacuation of the Jews from France. Moreover, he indicated that the escort from Drancy to the Reich’s border would be a commando from the SD of Metz and that after the border, the Ordnungspolizei would escort the convly to Auschwitz. On January 26 (XXVc-198), Knochen telexed to all the regional Gestapo offices: arrest all deportable Jews and transfer them to Drancy. Thus, for example, on January 28, 170 persons arrived from Bordeau (XXVc-198); on January 29, Merdsche, the Commander of Orleans, sent 67 Jews to Drancy, among them 25 women and 4 children; from Poitiers 22 internees arrived; from Dijon, on February 1, 70 Jews (XXVc-199); and from Angers, 9 (XXVc-202).



On February 3, Rothke telexed to the RSHA in Berlin, to Eichmann’s office, to the effect that on February 9 and 11, two trains would leave for Auschwitz, and at 8:55 AM, with approximately 1,000 Jews (XXVc-201).



On February 5, Rothke telexzed to the Ordnungspolizei that three convoys were scheduled and that escort commandos of 12 to 15 men had to b e provided. On the same day, Rothke asked the Gestapo in Dijon to transfer the Jews under their command for deportation on February 9 and 11.



On February 9, the first convoy of the month left for Auschwitz. Rothke sent a telexs (XXVc-203) to Eichmann, the Inspector for Concentration Camps at Oranienburg and Auschwitz, informing them that the transport left the station at Le Bourget/Drancy at 11:09 AM with 1,000 Jews under the direction of Lieutenant Nowak. On February 10, Rothke addressed a short letter to his superiors in Paris, informing them that the “first train left Drancy with 1,000 stateless Jews who were in the deportable category.”

This convoy was composed of 447 males and 545 females, and 8 undetermined. A count by nationality shows: 475 males and 545 females, and und 8 undetermined. A count by nationality shows: 475 Poles; 170 Russians; 85 French; 45 Romanians; some 40 Germans; 40 Greeks; 30 Dutch; and about 15 Turks and 15 Austrians. Two hundred seven of the deportees were over 60, and there were 130 children under 18.



This list is very poor condition. There is no indication as to what camps the deportees came from. There are two sublists of “reserves” to complete the quota.



There were several escapes, one of which was successful (XXVc-213); see also La let des Juifs in France, by A. Rutkowski; CDJC-1975; pp. 147-49.



When they arrived in Auschwitz on February 11, 77 men were selected for work and given numbers 101043 through 101119. Ninety two women were selected and given numbers 34969 through 35059. The others were immediately gassed.



There were 22 survivors in 1945, including seven women. [32]

[21] Tradition holds that eating black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day brings good luck the whole year around. Some say the bean’s lucky streak dates back to the pharaohs of Egypt. Others claim it started in Vicksburg, Virginia, during the Civil War when the town ran out of food while under siege, and the inhabiotants were lucky enough to discover cow peas (better known today as black-eyed peas) to provide sustenance.
