February 12, 553: Byzantine Emperor Justinian ordered the public reading of the Greek translation to Parshat Hashavuah (weekly Torah portion) on Shabbat morning and prohibited Rabbis from giving drashot on the Torah portion.[1]

561 Diocese of Uzzes (France), Jews expelled.[3]

February 12, 1481: The first Auto de Fe took place in Seville, Spain. Six Morrano men and six women were burned for allegedly practicing Judaism. These practices could include not eating pig - for whatever reason, washing hands before prayer, changing clothes on the Sabbath, etc. Over two thousand Inquisitions are said to have taken place in the Iberian Peninsula and its colonies. The number of victims in Spain alone is estimated at 39,912.[4]

February 12, 1486: Over 750 people would be mandated to participate on this very cold day as prisoners in an auto-de-fe in Toledo. They were forced to march barefooted and bareheaded through the streets. Many people came from the countryside to howl and scorn at the prisoners. Among some of the many stipulations of punishment, was the fining of 1/5 of their property, to which the funds went to battle the Muslims in Granada, as well as public self-flagellation over six consecutive Fridays.[5]

1489: We must here describe the burial place of the family as it was towards the close of this century that the two finest monuments were erected.

It was in the far famed Isle of Iona in the Reilig Orain (S. Oran's Chapel), within this sanctuary, says Monro Dean of the Isles, "lye the maist part of the Lords of the Isles, with their lynage; M'Kynnon and M’Quarie with their lynage, with sundry other inhabitants of the haill isles, because this sanctuary was wont to be the sepulture of the best men of the iles, and also of our kinges." Near the south end of this chapel is the tomb of Abbot MacKinnon's father. It consists of a plain black stone, a block of micaceous schistus intermixed with hornblende, and with an inscription in the old British character. On the wall above the tomb the Abbot erected one of those elaborately sculptured crosses still remaining in the Island, and inscribed upon it " Haec est crux Lauchlani Macfingone et ejus filii Johannis Abbatisde Hy[Iona]; facta an. Dom. MCCCCLXXXIX." And beneath it is engraved a lymphad or galley, as some think, in connection with the former occupation of the island by the Norwegians, for the device was a favourite one amongst those people. Far more probably, how ever, it was then, as now, a portion of the chief's coat of arms derived perhaps from the constant association of this clan with a seafaring life. The broken shaft alone remains, of which an engraving is appended. [6]

"Traveler ! " says a quaint writer, " To give you the root of those who enrich the dust of this tomb, I shall require to bespeak your patience. The MacKinnons are of the Alpinian family, who from A.D. 834 till the death of Alexander III. A.D. 1285, swayed the Scottish sceptre. Kenneth the great, the 69th king, took the patronymie of Kenneth MacAlpine from his brave and murdered father. [King Alpin who was killed at Dunkel Bridge 83I-4 by Brudus and the Picts and beheaded, but his body was taken to Icolmkill and buried here.] King Alpin's third son was called Prince Gregor, the head of that clan. Prince Gregor had a son called Donn-gheal, latinized Dongallus, who in his turn had a son called Findan, or Fingon; and this is the root of that princely tribe the MacFingans or MacKinnons."[7]

It is thought that a Norwegian princess started the first toll here - by stretching a chain across the strait and stopping boats getting through without paying. Known as Saucy Mary, she is reflected with her name in the village today! Tradition says that she built Caisteal Maol when she was married to one of the MacKinnon chiefs. It is known to have been built around 1490-1500 and was at one time called Dunakin (Hakon's fort). Bits of the castle collapsed in 1949 and 1989 but the remaining walls have now been secured to prevent further collapse.[10]

The Great Wagon Road on the Shenandoah Valley gave immigrants a land alternative to Chesapeake Bay travel. From Philadelphia, the main point of entry for Irish, Scots, and German immigrants, travelers could set out west out the turnpike and proceed south through Maryland and into Virginia. Diverse backcountry settlers founded towns in the Valley in the 1730s buil around markets and grist mills. [13]

From George Washington



To BURWELL BASSETT[16]



Mount Vernon, February 12, 1774.

Dear Sir: I find there will go some matters from this country, whichwill make my attendance at the Assembly necessary; this I cannot possibly do and go over the Mountains this Spring.

I have therefore determined, much against my Inclination & Interest, to postpone my Trip to the Ohio till after Harvest (as I cannot well be absent from home at that Season.) As March therefore (at least the first of it) is a disagreeable Season to travel our Roads In, and as I am obliged [illegible] to run land about the 20th of the month of March, and from thence proceed into Frederick and Berkeley I hope it will be agreeable and convenient to Mrs. Bassett and you give us the pleasure of seeing you here after that time; the Roads and Weather will be then good: our Fisheries will be then come on, and I think you will have more satisfaction than in an earlier visit.

The Letter herewith Inclosed for Mr. Dandridge[17] contains Black’s Bond which Mr. Wythe has advised me to lodge in some safe hands to be tendered to that pritty Gentleman upon his complying with the Conditions of it. As the care of it is a thing of the utmost Importance, I should be obliged to you (if Captn. Crawford should not go to Mr. Dandridge’s himself) to send the letter by Abram, or some careful Person, least the Bond should get lost.

As I am very much hurried just now, by business of different kinds, and as I presume my Wife has informed Mrs. Bassett of Jack’s Marriage, and all the other little occurrences she can think of, I shall only request you to make my effecte. Complements to her, and the rest of the Family, and believe me to be with great truth.[18]



o. 31.—William CRAWFORD TO George WASHINGTON.





FREDERICKTOWN, MARYLAND, February 12, 1777.



Sir:—I am sorry to break in upon your hours that ought to rest you from the many fatigues you have to undergo in that important task you have undertaken in defense of our liberties; but necessity obliges me under my present difficulties. I should have been with you, Sir, before now, but for the following reasons:

There is great probability of, an Indian war, for many evident reasons given by the Indians through the course of ]ast summer. They have killed many of our people on the frontiers ; and since the last treaty at Fort Pitt one thing of consequence has happened: the people of Kentucky petitioned the Assembly of Virginia for four hundred and fifty pounds of powder to be sent to them, which was put into the charge of some men to be taken there. On the way, the men went ashore, below the mouth of Soioto, and were fired on, and five out of seven killed. Two made their escape to the mouth of Kanawha. All the ammunition fell into their hands. [19] Many reasons we have to expect a war this spring. The chief of the lower settlements upon the Ohio, has moved off; and should both the regiments [20] now be moved away it will greatly distress the people, as the last raiscd by myself was expected to be a guard for them if there was an Indian war. By the Governor of Virginia, I was appointed to command that regiment, at the request of the people. The conditions were that the soldiers were enlisted during the war; and if an Indian war should come on this spring, they were to be continued there; as their interest was on the spot; but if there should be no Indian war in that quarter, then they were to go wherever called. On these conditions many cheerfully enlisted. The regiment, I believe, by this time, is nearly made up, as five hundred and odd were made up before I came away, and the officers were recruiting very fast; but should they be ordered away before they get blankets and other necessaries, I do not see how they are to be moved; besides, the inhabitants will be In great fear under the present circumstances. Many men have already been taken from that region, so that, if that regiment should march away, it will leave few or none to defend the country. There are no arms, as the chief part of the first men[21],were armed there, which has left the place very bare; but let me be ordered any where and I will go if possible.

I suppose by this time you may have heard of all my misfortunes. The loss of Hugh Stephenson [22] and Valentine Crawford[23], who died the 7th of last month at Bullskin[24] without any will, is very hard on me, as the affairs of the latter and mine are so blended together that no man can settle them but myself; aud should I be cut off before they are settled it would ruin his children and mine. If I can have some little time to administer and settle the estate, I can then appoint aman to act for me, and then I am ready to obey your commands.

By the death of Valentine Crawford, the whole management of Colonel Hugh Stephenson’s estate falls on me; as he was the only one that administered on his estate. It now lies on me; and nothing is done yet in either estate, and both going to waste. I am now going to the Congress to see how my regiment is to be armed, and to get necessaries. I expect to return immediately over the mountain. Should you have any orders there, you may write by next express who is to see me. Anything I can do you may command me. Excuse haste, as the express is now waiting. That you may ever be fortunate is the daily wish and prayer of your most humble and obedient servant.[25]





February 12, 1777

The “West Augusta Regiment”, designated as the Thirteenth Virginia, was afterwards raised, principally by Col. Crawford’s efforts, in the same region of country in which his first regiment had been recruited. Of this last regiement he was made colonel. An extract form a letter written by him Gen. Washington above on February 12, 1777 [26] references the two Virginia regiments raised in the valleys of the Youghiogheny and Monongahela.



By the above letter is shown the rather remarkable fact that by the early part of 1777 the Youghiogheny and Monongahela region of country had furnished two regiments[27] to the quota of Virginia (besides eight full companies to the Pennsylvania Line, as will be noticed below), and that the men of the first regiment raised here had been almost completely armed before marching to join the army. Crawford’s last regiment, the Thirteen Virginia, performed its service in the West, being stationed in detachments at Fort Pitt, Fort McIntosh, and other points on the Ohio and Allegheny Rivers. No list of its officers and men has been found.



February 12, 1781: Benjamin Harrison was commissioned Captain December 16, 1776 in the 13th Virginia Regiment, Regiment designated as 9th Virginia., September 14, 1778. He was in service in 1780 and retired February 12, 1781 with rank of Major. Awarded 4,000 acres. [28]

February 12, 1782: Colonel Washington acquired a measure of title to the Fort Necessity plantinat Great Meadows on October 17, when he purchased the interest of William Brooks in a survey dated February 14, 1771, based on an earlier application to the land Office of Pennsylvania, June 13, 1769. He did not perfect this title until after the Revolution, when on February 28, 1782 he secured a patent for tract called “Mt Washington, situate on the east side of Laurel Hill where Braddock’s Road crosses the Great Meadows, formerly Bedford County, now in the county of Westmoreland, containing 234 ½ acres.” This patent is recorded in Fayette

Countyl Pennsylvania, in “Deed book 507,” page 458 and shows a consideration of ₤33 15s. 6d. He purchased the right fo William Athel on February 12, 1782, in an application filed by Athel on April 3, 1769, and had this title perfected by a patent from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, February 8, 1782. For a consideration of ₤48 3s. 5d., Pennsylvania granted to him called “Spring Run.” On the south side of Youghiogheny, on the waters of said river, formerly in Cumberland, now in Westmoreland County, containing three hundred thirty-one acres, one hundred forty-seven perches, and bounded bye lands of Thomas Jones John Patty, John Pearsall, and Washington’s other lands. These other lands were those which Washinton had personally applied for on April 3, 1769, when the land office was opened, and which the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania granted to him February 8, 1782, for a consideration of ₤48 7d., and described as the “Meadow,” situate on the south side of “Youghogeni” on the waters of said river, formerly in Cumberland County, now in Westmorelamnd County, bounded by John Darsall’s (Pearsall’s, William Athel’s, John Patty’s and John Bishop’s. The deeds for these two tracts are recorded in Fayette County in “Deed Book 180,” pages 294, 296, respectively.

February 12, 1809: Abraham Lincoln, sixteenth President of the United States, is born in Hardin County, Kentucky.[31] Jews made up a comparatively miniscule part of the American population during the Age of Lincoln. When Lincoln was born there were approximately seven million people living the United States of whom approximately 2,000 were Jewish. By 1850, when Lincoln’s political career was extremely active, there were approximately 50,000 Jews living among a population of over 23 million Americans. In Illinois, the Jewish population could not have numbered much more than 200, most of whom lived in Illinois. By the time Lincoln was elected President, there were approximately 150,000 Jews living among 31,000,000 Americans. Of the 1,700,000 people living in “the Land of Lincoln,” approximately 1,500 were Jewish. Given these comparatively miniscule numbers, there was a surprising close connection between Lincoln and the Jewish people on both a personal and communal basis. At the personal level, Abraham Jonas of Quincy, Illinois, the brother of Joseph Jonas, the first Jewish settler of Cincinnati was one of Lincoln’s closest friends and earliest supporters. According to the City of Quincy Lincoln Bicentennial Commission, Jonas arrived in Quincy I838 and was the town’s first Jewish citizen. The friendship between Jonas and Lincoln began that same year and was to last for the next quarter of a century. Their personal bond was cemented by a politics when the two served together in the Illinois legislature during the 1840’s. Jonas and Lincoln were early members of the Republican Party and Jonas “handled arrangements for his friend’s arrival for the 1858 Lincoln-Douglas debate in Quincy.” Jonas and his law partner, Henry Asbury, may have been the first two to “float” Lincoln’s name as Presidential candidate. When Horace Greely, the powerful New York newspaper publisher spoke in Quincy in December of 1858, the two proposed that the eastern powerbroker might want to consider Lincoln as candidate for the top spot on the Republican ticket in 1860. Jonas did go to the Republican convention in 1860 where “he worked the floor to help secure the nomination” for his long time personal and political friend. Louis Naphtali Dembitz a twenty-eight year old lawyer, civic leader and prominent member of the Louisville, KY. Jewish community was one of the three delegates who placed Lincoln’s name in nomination at the Republican Convention held in Chicago. Dembitz was the uncle of Louis Dembitz Brandeis who was four at the time of the convention and who would become the first Jewish Justice to sit on the Supreme Court. Abraham Kohn, City Clerk of Chicago, was another Jew who was an early supporter of Lincoln and who worked at the Republican Convention to secure his nomination. After Lincoln’s nomination, Kohn gave him a flag that included the following verse from the Book of Joshua, “Be strong and of good courage; be not affrighted, neither be thou dismayed; for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” Other early, ardent supporters of Lincoln included the philanthropist Moses Dropsie, founder of Dropsie College and Sigmund Kaufman a German-Jewish newspaper publisher in New York “who worked furiously and successfully to deliver the German immigrant vote to Lincoln.” Kaufman also served as one of the electors for the State of New York and as such helped turn Lincoln’s popular vote lead into an Electoral College victory. In 1863, following the Battle of Chancellorsville, Lincoln visited the hospital bed of the mortally wounded hero Lt. Col Leopold Newman, and personally presented him with his commission of appointment as a brigadier general in the Union Army. At the communal level, Lincoln was the first President to make it possible for Rabbis to serve as military chaplains. He signed the 1862 Act of Congress which changed the law that had previously barred all but Christian clergymen from being chaplains. Lincoln showed his support for Jews in the face of European anti-Semitism. He appointed a Jew to serve as Counsel in Zurich as a way of letting the Swiss know that the United States government would not tolerate discrimination against American Jews doing business in Switzerland and that the United States Government did not look favorably on the discriminatory treatment of Swiss citizens who were Jewish. But Lincoln’s most famous moment in dealing with the Jews came when he countermanded Grant’s infamous Order #11. The vast majority of Jews were loyal supporters of the Union even in those dark days when the Copperheads and their allies called upon Lincoln to “let our wayward sisters depart in peace.” Of course, Lincoln came to be viewed as an American Moses who led the African-American Slaves to freedom. Ironically, Lincoln was killed during Pesach, the Jewish holiday of freedom that provided so much of the liberation motif for the work of the Great Emancipator.[32]

February 12, 1938: German troops entered Austria in an event known as the Anschluss. After the war, Austrians tried to present themselves as the first victims of the Nazis. The cheering crowds that greeted Hitler at that time tell a different story. The Austrians were quick to adopt the German attitude toward Austrian Jews.[40]



February 12, 1940: The British War Cabinet discussed the 1939 White Paper to limit Jewish land purchase in Palestine. Despite a protest from Churchill, the land limitation regulations would be put into force.[41]



February 12, 1942(25th of Shevat, 5702): The Nazis rounded up and murdered 3,000 Jews in the Ukrainian town of Brailov. The Jewish community in the Shtetel of Brailov can be traced back at least to the start of the 17th century. After the war Brailov was the subject of a 52-minute documentary called “Judenfrei: A Shtetl Without Jews.”[42]



February 12, 1943: For one week beginning on February 5, 1943 Germans are greeted with an armed uprising as they try to deport the final group of Bialystok Jews. By February 12th, 18,000 were in hiding. Another 10,000 would end up in Treblinka.[43]

[19] At a general meeting at Harrodsburg, two agents were chosen to negotiate with the Virginia Assembly, for the efficient protection and general good of the new settlements of Kentucky. This was on the 6th June, 1776. Five hundred pounds of powder were procured from the Council of that State and taken from Pittsburgh down the Ohio and secreted near Limestone, now Maysville. Late in December, a party under Colonel John Todd was sent for the powder, but when near the Blue Licks was attacked and defeated by Indians. Oniy one of the settlers was killed, and the powder was afterward brought safely to Harrodsburg.



[20]One was the 13th Virginia (usually known, at the time, as the West Augusta regiment), commanded by Crawford; the other was Wood’s regiment.

[27] In February, 1777, Congress appropriated the sum of $20,000, “to be paid to Col. William Crawford for raising and equipping his regiment, which is a part of the Virginia new levies.” It is not certain as to which of the regiments raised by Crawford this had reference, but it appears to have been the last one, the “West Augusta Regiment.”
