This Day…
March 21, 629: Byzantine Emperor Heraclius marched into Jerusalem at the head of his army with the support of Jewish inhabitants. The Jews who had previously fought with the Persians against Byzantine rule decided to support him in return for a promise of amnesty. Upon his entry into Jerusalem the local priests convinced him that killing Jews was a positive commandment and that his promise was therefore invalid. Hundreds of Jews were massacred and thousands of others fled to Egypt. Thus, much of the rich Jewish life in the Galilee and Judea came to an end.[1]
629: In 629 peace was established. In August 629 Heraclius celebrated his triumph in Constantinople. The following spring he travelled south to receive back the Holy Cross and to carry it in pomp to Jerusalem. [2]
629: When Heraclius was in Constantinople in 629, receiving congratulatory embassies from as far afield as France and India, a letter is said to have arrived written to him byt an Arabian chieftain who announced himselp as the Prophet of God and bade the Emperoro join his faith.. Similar letters were sent to the kings of Persia and Ethiopoia AND TO THE Governor of Egypt. [3]
March 1, 1349 (Adar 10): Riots broke out in Worms (Germany). Many Jews fled to Heidelberg. Others in desperation set fire to their homes or were murdered. An estimated 420 people died that day. Their property was seized by the town.[4]
March 1, 1349: Three thousand Jews were killed in Black Death riots in Efurt Germany. This was one of only a series of wholesale murders of Jews that took place in Germany in 1349. The Jews provided a convenient scapegoat for the Black Death. In some places they were accused of poisoning the wells which supposedly caused the plague. Since The Black Death provided an interesting excuse of murdering Jews, the following few summary will prove useful when we get to it our study of Jewish History during the Middle Ages. "A Genoese trading post in the Crimea was besieged by an army of Kipchaks from Hungary and Mongols from the East. The latter brought with them a new form of plague. Infected dead bodies were catapulted into the Genoese town. One Genoese ship managed to escape and brought the disease to Messina, in Sicily. From this time forth the disease became an epidemic. It moved over the next few years to northern Italy, North Africa, France, Spain, Austria, Hungary, Switzerland, Germany, the Low Countries, England, Scandinavia and the Baltic. There were lesser outbreaks in many cities for the next twenty years. An estimated 25 million died in Europe and economic depression followed."
or there is this version
1349: After a mob marched into the Jewish quarter in Erfurt, Germany, carrying a flag with a cross the Jews tried to defend themselves. Over a hundred Jews were killed and much of the ghetto burned.[5]
March 1, 1497: On the evening of the Seder, all Jewish children in Portugal between the ages of four and fourteen were actually baptized.[6]
During 1497, Jews, both children and adults, were physically dragged into church and forcibly baptized. Others voluntarily accepted Christianity in order to remain in the country and escape enslavement to the monarch, the penalty for accepting neither expulsion nor conversion. In the end relatively little emigration under the order occurred, and most Jews became New Christians rather than face enslavement.[7]
March 21, 1765: 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).[8]

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. [12]
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.[13]
1765 William Crawford begins improvements on lands in western Pennsylvania. Son James was born to Ann Connell.[14]
“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…”[15]
1765[16]
Lyman Draper obtained statements[17] 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[18] that he made homestead improvements on Youghiogheny in 1765, and that he brought his family there in the spring of the following year.[19] [20]
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.[21]

Stamp Act passed; riots occur in Boston and other cities.[25]
March 21, 1769, Went and laid off 4 lots at the head of Bullskin for several tenants.[26]
Bullskin is where the Richard Stephenson’s and the Crawfords home was when George Washington first stayed with them. [27]
• March 21, 1776: The President of Congress, John Hancock, arranged to send George Washington $250,000 cash to be used to maintain the siege of Boston. Hancock wrote in the letter that accompanied the funds sent that he had selected three "gentlemen of character whom I am confident will meet your notice." One of these men was the Jewish patriot, Moses Franks of Philadelphia.[28]

March 21, 1782
Irvine to Major Scott:
“Sir:— Four companies of militia are called out for the purpose of defending the frontier of Washington county. You are to take command of two companies, who are to be kept constantly in motion from Montour’s Bottom to Decker’s or Mingo Bottom [a station on the east side of the Ohio]. As the whole of this frontier is entrusted to your charge, I have no doubt you make such arrangements and dispose of these two companies so as best to answer the purpose.
‘It will therefore be incumbent on you to visit the companies frequently and see that the men are alert and attentive to duty; but above all, you will dispose of them in such a manner as that very short intervals will take place between the different parties marching and counter-marching. You will direct the officers commanding companies or parties, should they discover signs of an enemy, to alarm not only tho other companies and parties, but they are to inform the neighboring settlements, and to be extremely cautious at the same time to guard against false alarms or reports. Yon will also direct them to send me notice of any material occurrence by express (one of their men), the lower company to that next this way, the officer commanding there to send one of his men — the first to return to his company.
“You will make weekly returns to me of the number of men and officers had attacked some friendly Indians on the island in the Ohio (Killbuck’s Island), under the protection of the garrison, and had killed several, and amongst them some that had been of essential service to the whites, in expeditions against Indian towns, and on scouting parties in case of attacks upon the settlements. One to whom the whites had given the name of Wilson (Captain Wilson) was much regretted by the garrison.’.[31]
March 24, 1782
There was another attack upon the Indians, intervening between the Williamson and Crawford expedition. A large group of the Williamson soldiers, who lived along Chartiers Creek made an attack against a group of Indians making their home on Smoky Island, below Fort Pitt, on March 24, 1782, and killed several of them, among the number being Nanoland, who was the friend of Captain Samuel Brady. General Irvine was absent from Fort Pitt at Carlisle and Colonel John Gibson was in command. This scouting group sent word to Colonel Gibson that, by reason of his friendliness towards the Indians, they would kill and scalp him. Upon his return the next day from Carlisle, General Irvine ordered a thorough investigation of the Gnaddenhutten and Smoky Island affairs, questioning Colonel Williamson and his officers but to no avail. The settlers were determined on a policy of extermination.[32]
About the latter end of the month of March or the beginning of April., of the present year (1782), the western Indians began to make incursions upon the frontiers of Ohio and Washington, Youghiogany and Westmoreland counties, which has been their constant practice ever since the commencement of the present war between the United States and Great Britain.
In consequence of these predatory invasions, the principal officers of the above mentioned counties, namely: Colonels Williamson and Marshall, tried every method in their power to set on foot an expedition against the Wyandot towns, which they could effect no other way than by giving all possible encouragement to volunteers. The plan proposed was as follows: Every man furnishing himself with a hourse, a gun, and one month’s provisions, should be exempt from two tours of militia duty. Likewise, that every one who had been plundered by the Indians, should, if the plunder could be found at their towns, have it again, proving it to be his property, and all horses lost on the expedition by unavoidable accident were to be replaced by horses taken in the enemy’s country.
The time appointed for the rendezvous, or the general meeting of the volunteers, was fixed to be on the 20th of May, and the place, the old Mingo town, on the west side of the river Ohio, about forty miles below Fort Pitt, by land; and I think about seventy five by water.[33]
March 21, 1786
In 1836 Robert Lucas was succeeded as governor of Ohio by Joseph Vance, who became the state’s thirteenth executive. Vance was born in Catfish, now Washington, Pennsylvania, on March 21, 1786.[34]
March 21, 1786: Joseph Colville Vance was one of the early Governors of State of Ohio in 1836.[35] Joseph Coleville Vance is the compilers 1st cousin, 8 times removed.
In 1836 Robert Lucas was succeeded as governor of Ohio by Joseph Vance, who became the state’s thirteenth executive. Vance was born in Catfish, now Washington, Pennsylvania, on March 21, 1786.
In 1836 Vance accepted the nomination for governor and was elected in the first Whig victory in the state. As governor, Vance gave substantial support to the public school system, advocating that federal surplus funds be used for the schools, and he urged the completion of the canals then under construction. He favored the recharter of the United States Bank, and he urged the abolition of capital punishment. Governor Vance was a forceful and capable executive, but he lost his popularity with the antislavery people of the state by the extradition of John B. Mahan, wanted in Kentucky for aiding the escape of two slaves. This action probably contributed more than any other one cause to his defeat for reelection in 1838, when he lost to the Democratic candidate, Wilson Shannon.
During Vances administration there occurred an abortive rebellion in Canada in which a number of Ohioans, gathered in so-called Hunters’, or Patrots’, Lodges, attempted to take part. Though severely critical of their actions, Vance did not believe that he had any authority to interfere, though he promised the secretary of state and the army commander at Detroit to do all in his power to prevent the removal of arms belonging to the state militia.[36]
March 21, 1793
In 1793 the town of Connellsville was laid out and chartered by Mr. Connell, who perceived that though there were but very few inhabitants in the place, it was destined to become a point of importance, because it was here that emigrants and travelers to the West (of whom there were already great numbers in transit, coming over the road from Bedford by way of Turkey Foot)[37] reached a boatable point on the Youghiogheny River. Here, for several years, boats had been built by emigrants and others to take their merchandise and other movables down by water carriage, and here he thought was a place where a thriving village would naturally spring up. Succeeding years bore witness to the soundness of his calculations, though for more than a decade after the laying out of the town its growth was slow.
The charter, executed by Mr. Connell, March 21, 1793, and recorded with the town plot in Book C, page 329, of the Fayette County records, is as follows:
Zachariah Connell, proprietor of the tract of land situate on the East side of Youghiogheni River, where the State Road from the north fork of Turkey foot intersects said river, To all to whom these presents shall come sendeth Greeting, Whereas it is necessary that some provision be made at the place aforesaid for the reception and entertainment of Travelers, and as well to accommodate such Tradesmen and others inclinig to settle at or near said place, for their encouragement and better regulation, Has laid out a small Town at the aforesaid place by the name of Connellsville, agreeably to the plan hereunto annexed.

March 21, 1804: After four years of debate and planning, French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte enacts a new legal framework for France, known as the "Napoleonic Code." The civil code gave post-revolutionary France its first coherent set of laws concerning property, colonial affairs, the family, and individual rights.
In 1800, General Napoleon Bonaparte, as the new dictator of France, began the arduous task of revising France's outdated and muddled legal system. He established a special commission, led by J.J. Cambaceres, which met more than 80 times to discuss the revolutionary legal revisions, and Napoleon presided over nearly half of these sessions. In March 1804, the Napoleonic Code was finally approved.
It codified several branches of law, including commercial and criminal law, and divided civil law into categories of property and family. The Napoleonic Code made the authority of men over their families stronger, deprived women of any individual rights, and reduced the rights of illegitimate children. All male citizens were also granted equal rights under the law and the right to religious dissent, but colonial slavery was reintroduced. The laws were applied to all territories under Napoleon's control and were influential in several other European countries and in South America.[39]

March 21, 1907
W. H. Goodlove was in Central City last Friday and made us a pleasant visit. He and Mrs. Goodlove recently arrived home from San Antonio, Texas where they had been spending the winter, and he had many interesting things to tell of that winter and health resort. He told us that his son-in-law, Dr. Gray, who with his family moved there several months ago on account of the Drs. health, is recovering rapidly and has great hopes of fully recovering. [42]
March 21, 1920: President Harding pushed Congress to limit immigration. Passage of this legislation would have a direct negative effect on Jewish immigration prior to and during World War II.[43]
Late March, 1920: Chalice returned to Buck Creek for several days in late March to visit with Grant and lend his support the consolidation effort. During the visit he delivered a “splendid sermon on service” before “a large crowd gathered at the church to hear their old pastor.” That same weekend the Castle Grove Council for Irish Independence held a mass meeting in the hall behind the Castle Grove Church launching a drive to raise funds to aid Ireland in its war of independence from Britain. The irony of this conjunction of events seems to have escaped observers at the time. While Buck Creek Methodists were busily attempting to oust Irish Catholic influent from the community, the Catholics in the area were mustering support to oust British Protestant influence from Ireland.[44]
March 1, 1933: The German government opens its first concentration camp at Dachau. [45]
March 1, 1933: The New York Times reported on the increased number of German immigrants arriving in Palestine. “Oscar Kahn, who was a (German) State Secretary in 1918 and who had been threatened by the Nazis” was among the many German families who reached Eretz Israel this week.[46]
March 21, 1935: Max Gottlieb born March 21, 1935 in Berlichingen, Germany. Prior to WWII lived in Berlichingen. Deportation: to Westerbork, Netherlands. Westerbork concentration camp was a World War II Nazi refugee, detention and transit camp in Hooghalen, ten kilometers north of Westerbork, in the northeastern Netherlands. Its function during the Second World War was to assemble Roma, Dutch, and German Jews for transport to other Nazi concentration camps On July 20, 1943, Max arrived at Sobibor, Poland. He died on July 20, 1943, Sobibor [36]. [47] From May 1942 to July, 1942 approximately 100,000 Jews were murdered at Sobibor. [37][48]
•
March 21, 1937: Pope Pius XI issues the encyclical Mit brennender Sorge, a statement against racism and nationalism. [49]
March 21, 1939: A 24 hour strike protesting Great Britain’s latest plan to deal with the situation in Palestine was scheduled to come to and at 5 A.M. today. According to The National Council Of Palestine Jews, the plan would lead to the “liquidation of the Newish national home” and strangle Jewish settlement in Palestine.[50]
March 21, 1940: Paul Reynaud becomes Prime Minister of France. Reynaud would be the Prime Minister when the Germans would end the Phony War and come crashing through the Ardennes in May of 1940. Within six weeks, France would suffer a crushing military defeat. Reynaud was one of the leaders who wanted to continue the fight against the Nazis from France’s overseas colonies. He was overruled. To his credit, Reynaud refused to sign an Armistice with the Germans, a role that fell to the willing hands of Marshall Petain. Petain’s shameful behavior led to the active betrayal of the Jews of France by their non-Jewish countrymen.[51]
March 21, 1943: At Radom, Poland, Jewish physicians were removed from the ghetto and executed at nearby Szydlowiec.[52]
March 21, 1943: Eight members of the Jewish intelligentsia were taken from Piotrków, Poland, to a Jewish cemetery and shot, along with the cemetery's caretaker and his wife. The Germans engineer these killings to total ten, in a macabre reference to the biblical story of the hanged ten sons of the Jew-hating Haman--a crucial character in the Purim story.[53]
March 21, 1943: During the Jewish festival of Purim, 2300 Jews from Skopje, Yugoslavia, were deported to Auschwitz.[54]
March 21, 1944: Eichmann went to Hungary to oversee German interests in a country that was still hesitant about deporting its Jews. The Hungarians would soon capitulate to German demands. The Hungarian Arrow Cross would be an enthusiastic participant in the Nazis roundups.[55]
March 21, 1945: At the end of the “Flossenberg March,” the remaining survivors of the march were crammed into cattle cars over a three day period and awaited further transport. Many died of thirst. They were sent to Belsen. Only 200 of the original 1000 women survived the entire trip.[56]
March 21, 1945: Dozens of small concentration camps in Germany were liberated by the Red Army.[57]

Hello Jeffery,
I was happy to see in your last message that you and the SAR have started some dialogue regarding membership. I wish you all the luck in your endeavor. I have attached some additional headstone pictures from the Lindsey Cemetery that were sent to me from a contact in Cynthiana Ky. I see Captain Moore’s wife Mary is buried there. Apparently there are additional ancestors buried in the cemetery. I didn’t know if you father had some of these shots also, and if not, may want to see them. He also sent me the names and contact numbers of the property owners bordering the Lindsey Cemetery. Also attached is documentation regarding two Kentucky land grants granted to our Captain Moore. I will send along other additional information I come across.
Sincerely, John Moreland
John,
Thanks for the pictures and info on the land grant. I don’t know who this other Thomas Moore is. Do you have any info on him. I can’t quite read everything on the stone. Caroline is daughter of Eleanor (Dawson), Thomas’s son William’s wife. Mary (Harrison) Moore is of course Thomas’s wife, Polly Moore is apparently William and Eleanors daughter as well, and that is new to me as well. Thanks for sending this to me!
Jeff Goodlove

[9] The will of Richard Stephenson, Sr., in 1765, put into effect, an old southern and very interesting custom. When an aged parent, of a family dies, the youngest son (or child), falls heir to the home place; and there continues to live with the custody and care of the aged mother or father. Here, we understand the youngest son, Marquis, inherited the home place, under these conditions; where his mother, Honor (widow Crawford) Stephenson lived until her death.

[10] The statement that Richard Stephenson was very sick and weak in body, coupled with the dates herein is proof enough that he was suffering from failing health. His will may have been made at his home on the Bullskin, as of March 21st 1765 and certainly his passing was not too far distant.

[37] In its post-Revolutionary War heyday, the Turkey Foot Road was important enough to be depicted as a principal route on state maps. As such, it facilitated settlement in what was then considered the west, and served the transportation needs of those living near it. Portions became nineteenth century stage and toll roads. The route also facilitated early industrial and mining development in Mount Savage and Barrelville, Maryland in the days before the Mount Savage Railroad.
