March 4 B.C.: When Herod died in March of 4 B.C. Jesus was a six month old infant living in Galilee. [1] Herod’s son Archelaus organized an elaborate funeral for his father, who no doubt even designed the program, including a royal procession conveying the body to Herodium, where it was interreed as Herod had wished.[2] Herod is interred at Herodium, outside Jerusalem. Herodium lies in the barren Judean hills, 8 miles south of Jerusalem and 3.5 miles east of Bethlehen. A rebellion erupts, put down temporarily by Archelaus. Archelaus travels to Rome for confirmation as ruler. Varus, governor of Syria, attempts to keep the peace, which is broken by revolts in Judea and Galilee. [3] At Herod’s death a former slave of the king, Simon, pretends to kingship in the Transjordan, anticipating the revolt of Simon bar Giora, another leader of the lower classes.[4] With the aid of the Nabatean king, Aretas IV, Varus suppresses rebellion and crucifies 2,000.[5]

4 BCE: Emperor Augustus in Rome hears and settles the dispute over Herod’s succession, dismissing a request from some Judeans to reject Herod’s family. Trhe region is divided among Herod’s three sons: Judea, Samaria, and Idumea to Archelaus; Galilee to Herod Antipas;; and the Lebanon districts to Philip.[6] Herod Philip II (4 B.C. -34 A.D.), one of the sons of Herod the Great and Ruler of the eastern Galilee and the Golan during the tme of Jesus’ Galilean ministry, was the first Jewish Jewsin ruler to have his portrait emblazoned upon a coin. Coins with portraits of Herodian kings are extremely rare because of the Jewish religious prohibition o graven. Only a handful of Philips coins have survived and even these are well worn with largely indistinct busts.[7]

March 4, 1152: Frederick Barbarossa was elected Roman-German king. Born in 1123, Barbarossa or Frederick I was Holy Roman Emperor for forty years. He was slated to lead the Third Crusade along with Phillip of France and Richard the Lion-Hearted. Unfortunately, Barbarossa drowned before he could help lead the Crusade. From the Jewish point of view, unfortunately is the correct word to use in describing his death. Unlike other Crusaders, Barbarossa sought to protect the Jews. He warned local priests and monks not to preach against the Jews. He told the Diet (Parliament) that anybody who killed a Jew would forfeit his own life. Thanks to Frederick's efforts, German bishops threatened those who attacked Jews with excommunication. As a Jewish commentator of that time wrote, "Frederick defended us with all his might and enabled us to live among our enemies, so that no one harmed the Jews."[8]

1152

In 1152 Eleanor of Aquitaine married Henry II, and so her dowry of Aquitaine shifted to England. Henry II, wily, full blooded, and tempestuous, whose pedigree could be traced to Noah and whose ambitions were huge, was much more suited to Eleanor’s lusty and high spirited ways. By him the sons flowed one after another. These affections were prophesied by no less a figure than Merlin the magician. [9]

Richard, Henry II third son was Eleanor’s favorite. [10]

March 4, 1193: Saladin, the great Moslem leader, passed away. Among Saladin’s many accomplishments was the re-taking of Jerusalem from the Crusaders and his subsequent defeat of Richard the Lionhearted. Saladin had begun his leadership career in Egypt where Maimonides served as physician to his court. There is some question as to whether Maimonides provided medical services to Saladin or to his brother-in-law and his entourage.[11]

March 4, 1215: King John of England makes an oath to the Pope as a crusader to gain the support of Innocent III. While they may have been odds over many issues, the two leaders both held firm to the concept of allowing the Jews to exist, but in a state of humiliation. In 1210, John imprisoned the Jews of Bristol and demanded 66,000 in ransom as the price of their freedom. To move the process along, John reportedly had the teeth of the prisoners extracted one at a time until they agreed to the payment. Such was his treatment of the Jews, that Barons included special language about the treatment of the Jews in the Magna Carta. The Fourth Lateran Council over which Innocent actively presided adopted several cannons attacking Jews including the denying them the right to hold office and the requirement to wear distinctive dress.[12]

March 4, 1386: Władysław II Jagiełło (Jogaila) is crowned King of Poland. The situation of the Jews in Poland had already begun to deteriorate prior to his kingship. In the middle of the century, the Jews were blamed for the Black Plague and attacked by the countrymen. Under Wladislaus II and his successors the first extensive persecutions of the Jews in Poland commenced, persecutions which the monarch did not act to stop.[13]
March 4, 1634: The first tavern in America opens in Boston.[14]

1634: In America by 1634 the Pequot Indians went from an estimated 13,000 to about 4,000 because of European diseases brought over by the Puritans. Even so some tribes had suffered 90 to 100 % losses so the Pequots, Naragansits, and Mohicans were not as bad off. [15]



March 4, 1681: Ebenezer Zane came to Pennsylvania with William Penn in 1681 when the Coloney of Pennsylvania was established by Charter from King Charles II on March 4, 1681.[16][17]



March 4, 1699: Jews of Lubeck, Germany, were expelled.[18]

Eighteenth Century

Take two striking examples: alcohol and milk. The ability to digest large amounts of alcohol depends to some extent o the overproduction by a certain set of genes on chromosome 4 of enzymes called alcohol dehyudrogenases. Most people do have the capacity to pump up production by these genes, a biochemical trick they perhaps evolved the hard way, that is, by the death and disabling of those without it. It was a good trick to learn, because fermented liquids are wrought by various forms of dysentery in the first millennia of settled agricultural living must have been terrible. “Don’t’ drink the water’, we westerners tell each other when heading for the truopics. Before bottled water, the only supply of safe drinking water was in boiled or fermented form. As late as the eighteenth century in Europe, the rich drank nothing but wine, beer, coffee and tea. They risked death otherwise. (The habit dies hard.)[19]

But foraging, nomadic people not only could not grow the crops to ferment; they did not need the sterile liquid. They lived at low densities and natural water supplies were safe enough. So it is little wonder that the natives of Australia and North America were and are especially vulnerable to alcoholism and that many cannot now ‘hold their drink’.

1700: In 1700 America consisted of eleven small colonies of 250,000 people along the Atlantic coast from Massachusetts to Carolina extending westward as far as the Appalachians, comprising a few hundred thousand square miles.[20]





March 4, 1732/1733: John Battaile’s eldest son, John, was born in Dec. 1695, and

died March 4, 1732-3. He married Sarah _____. This well known family

has spread widely through the South and West.[21]

March 4-5, 1776: American fortify Dorchester Heights , overlooking Boston from the south.[29] Under the cover of constant bombing from American artillery, Brigadier General John Thomas slips 2,000 troops, cannons and artillery into position at Dorchester Heights, just south of Boston, on this day in 1776. Under orders from General George Washington, Thomas and his troops worked through the night digging trenches, positioning cannons and completing their occupation of Dorchester Heights.

The cannon that made Thomas' efforts possible were those taken by Lieutenant Colonel Benedict Arnold and Ethan Allen with his Green Mountain Boys at Fort Ticonderoga on May 10, 1775. Colonel Henry Knox then brought the cannon and powder to Boston through the winter snow in time for Washington and Thomas to employ them in the engagement at Dorchester Heights.

By muffling their wagon-wheels with straw, the Patriots were able to move their cannon unnoticed. Washington would use this same strategy to evade British General Charles Cornwallis after the Battle of Trenton.

At daybreak, British General William Howe received word of the American position overlooking the city. Within days, General Howe came to realize that the American position made Boston indefensible and soon ordered the evacuation of all British troops from the city; the British sailed for Halifax, Nova Scotia, on March 27. Howe and his troops remained in Canada until they traveled to meet Washington in the conflict over New York in August.

In 1898, a Georgian white marble revival tower was commissioned for the site of the battle to memorialize the Patriot victory at Dorchester Heights. The memorial tower has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1966. In 1978, it joined eight other sites in the Boston National Historic Park under the purview of the National Park Service.[30]

March 4, 1777: When the English at Detroit kept the Indians stirred up along the frontiers to the westward, Washington created what he designated as the Western Department, with headquarters at Fort Pitt. There were two important groups in this department, due to their having enlisted under the banner of different colonies. Those west of the Monongahela River were in the Virginia regiments, and there is just a little confusion as to the number of these regiments, due to the assignments of Colonel William Crawford. He did not remain in the service long, for he was back at Heathtown and was in his place as a justice of the Yohogania court during the latter years of the Revolution, until he started up to Sandusky. He had first gone to the Virginia capital at Williamsburg, where he was commissioned as a lieutenant-colonel of the 5th Virginia Regiment on February 13, 1776, and served there until promoted as colonel of the 7th Regiment on August 14, 1776. He is credited with having raised this regiment largely in the district of West Augusta. It was attached to General Woodford’s brigade and was nearly cut to pieces at the battle of Brandywine. Colonel Crawford served with this regiment until March 4, 1777.

The 13th Virginia Regiment was sent east to become a part of General Muhlenberg’s brigade and in September, 1778, was renumbered as the 9th Virginia, being sent west of the Alleghenies for service in the spring of 1779. It reported John Gibson as colonel; Richard Campbell as lieutenant-colonel, and Richard Taylor as major, with five captains and 275 rank and file.[31]

Virginia organized three county seats of government; Ohio County, with court being held at Black’s cabin until a court house could be constructed. The records of Ohio County being removed later to Wheeling about 1797 (now West Virginia), and where they are to this day.[42]

In 1797, Andrew Jackson was elected U.S. Senator as a Democratic-Republican. He resigned within a year.[43]



March 4, 1799: Under cover of night, between the 3rd and the 4th of March, work commenced- the erecting of five batteries, four against the southern wall and one in support of the northern sector.13 The artillery park at Napoleon¹s command consisted only of field pieces, mostly of 12, 8, 6 and 3 "pouces" (=inches of 2.7 cm), of howitzers of 6 pouces and of 6-pouce mortars,14 since the heavy artillery had all been loaded for transfer to Acre bay onto the ships of the flotilla commanded by captain Standelet, and onto the freighters that had been collected for that purpose in the Egyptian harbors. Those ships were only just then commencing their journey north, without the means of contact with the land forces, and Napoleon was compelled to make do with the lighter ordnance at his command. However, he did not seem to have been unduly worried.Most probably, the outward appearance of these antiquated walls revived his confidence in the description of M. de Volney, who, in 1784, had called the ramparts of Jaffa "mere garden walls." [44]Joseph Lefevre was said to have been in Napoleon’s Body Guard Unit.





• March 4, 1801: Winnie, wife of George W. Crawford, born March 4. 1801, died August 6, 1871.



March 4, 1801: Thomas Jefferson becomes the 3rd President of the United States.[45] A contingent of sword-bearing soldiers escorted the new president to his inauguration on March 4, 1801, illustrating the contentious nature of the election and the victors' fear of reprisal. In his inaugural address, Jefferson sought to heal political differences by graciously declaring We are all Republicans, we are all Federalists.

As president, Jefferson made some concessions to his opponents, including taking Hamilton's advice to strengthen the American Navy. In 1801, Jefferson sent naval squadrons and Marines to suppress Barbary piracy against American shipping. He reduced the national debt by one-third, acquired the Louisiana Territory, and his sponsorship of the Lewis and Clark expedition opened the west to exploration and settlement. Jefferson's first term ended in relative stability and prosperity, and in 1804 he was overwhelmingly elected to a second term.

The flawed voting system that was so problematic in the election of 1800 was later improved by the 12th Amendment, which was ratified in 1804.[46]

March 4, 1829

Andrew Jackson (1st cousin 8 times removed) is inaugurated as the seventh president of the United States.[48] Andrew Jackson 1829 presidential inauguration

Jackson was the first President to invite the public to attend the White House ball honoring his first inauguration. Many poor people came to the inaugural ball in their homemade clothes. The crowd became so large that Jackson's guards could not hold them out of the White House. The White House became so crowded with people that dishes and decorative pieces in the White House began to break. Some people stood on good chairs in muddied boots just to get a look at the President. The crowd had become so wild that the attendants poured punch in tubs and put it on the White House lawn to lure people out of the White House. Jackson’s raucous populism earned him the nickname King Mob.[49]

March 4, 1837: Chicago receives its official charter by the state of Illinois.[50]

March 4, 1841: William Henry Harrison (1773-1841), America’s ninth president, served just one month in office before dying of pneumonia. His tenure, from March 4, 1841, to April 4, 1841, is the shortest of any U.S. president. Harrison, who was born into a prominent Virginia family, joined the Army as a young man and fought American Indians on the U.S. frontier. He then became the first congressional delegate from the Northwest Territory, a region encompassing much of the present-day Midwest. In the early 1800s, Harrison served as governor of the Indiana Territory and worked to open American Indian lands to white settlers. He became a war hero after fighting Indian forces at the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811. Harrison went on to serve as a U.S. congressman and senator from Ohio. He was elected to the White House in 1840, but passed away a month after his inauguration, the first U.S. president to die in office.[51]

March 4, 1861 Abraham Lincoln’s inaugural address as he argued passionately before his audience and the nation to keep the Union together: “We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.”[54] Abraham Lincoln becomes the 16th president of the United States. Although he extended an olive branch to the South, he also made it clear that he intended to enforce federal laws in the seceded states.

Since Lincoln's election in November, seven states had left the Union. Worried that the election of a Republican would threaten their rights, especially slavery, the lower South seceded and formed the Confederate States of America. In the process, some of those states had seized federal properties such as armories and forts. By the time Lincoln arrived in Washington for his inauguration, the threat of war hung heavy in the air. Lincoln took a cautious approach in his remarks, and he made no specific threats against the southern states. As a result, he had some flexibility in trying to keep the states of the upper South--North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Arkansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delaware--in the Union.

In his address, Lincoln promised not to interfere with the institution of slavery where it existed, and he pledged to suspend the activities of the federal government temporarily in areas of hostility. However, he also took a firm stance against secession and the seizure of federal property. The government, insisted Lincoln, would "hold, occupy, and possess" its property and collect its taxes. He closed his remarks with an eloquent reminder of the nation's common heritage:

"In your hand, my fellow countrymen, and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war. The government will not assail you. You can have no conflict without being yourselves the aggressors. You have no oath in Heaven to destroy the government, while I shall have the most solemn one to "preserve, protect, and defend" it...We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearthstone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature."

Six weeks later, the Confederates fired on Fort Sumter in Charleston, South Carolina, and the Civil War began.[55]

March 4, 1861: The Confederate Flag is adopted in Montgomery, Alabama.[56]

March 4, 1865 (Lincoln’s 2nd Inaugural)

“If we could know first where we are, and wither we are tending,

We could better judge what to do, and how to do it.

A house divided against itself cannot stand.

We shall not fail, even we stand firm.

Wise counsels may accelerate or mistaken delay it,

But sooner or later, the victory is sure to come.



It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God’s assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men’s faces,

It may seem strange, but let us judge not, but let us judge not, that we be not judged!” [61] President Lincoln begins his second term, expressing his desire for the war to end and extending a gracious hand to the South. "Fondly do we hope--fervently do we pray--that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away." He concluded with the following stirring statement: "With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right...let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wound...to do all which may achieve and cherish a just, and a lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations."

Within six weeks, the war was over and an assassin had killed Abraham Lincoln.[62]

Convoys 50 and 51, March 4 and 6, 1943.



Background and Origin



In 1970, the former Nazi diplomat Ernst Achenbach was removed from his position as representative of the Federal Republic to the European Economic Commission in Brussels, after his responsibility in the anti-Jewish campaign in France was brought to public attention…. In particular it was shown the role that he played in the deportation of 2,000 Jews on March 4 and 6, 1943, and the fact that these two convoys were constituted as reprisals for an attack against German officers.



Two days after an assassination of February 13 which took the lives of two German officers, Ernst Achenbach, head of the political section of the German Embassy, cabled to Berlin (CXXVI-a-92).



No. 1701, February 15, 1943.

On February 13, 1943, about 11:10 PM, Lieutenant Colonel Winkler and Major Nussbaum, Chief of Staff of the Luftwaffe’s Third Division, were shot from behind while walking from their office to their hotel a short distance from the Louvre Bridge over the Seine, which they had just crossed. Winkler was wounded by three bullets; Nussbaum by two. They died the same night. Seven 7.65mm cartridges were found near the scene of the crime, and presumably came from the same gun. The whereabouts of the assassins is being investigated. The first reprisal will be the arrest and deportation of 2,000 Jews.

ACHENBACH



Reprinted here is a passage from the book “Wherever they may be (Partout ou ils seront; pp. 107-9) which shows that, contrary to what Achenbach pretended after the was, the reprisals for this attack were not a simple bluff, but rather an operation which brought two thousand Jews to extermination:



“On the day after that telegram, February 16, 1943, the chief of the Gestap’s Bureau for Jewish Affairs, SS-Obersturmfuhrer Heinz Rothke, wrote in a memorandum: ‘In a reprisal for the murder on February 13, 1943, of two German air force officers, 15,000 able bodied men had to be deported from France, and thousands of Jews had to make up that quota.’

“On February 23, 1943, SS-Obersturmbannfuhrer Kurt Lischka, commander of the Paris SD-Security Police, informed his Brussels counterpart that ‘the Paris Police Commissioner was notified through my intervention on February 14, 1943, that as a reprisal, 2,000 Jews between the ages of sixteen and sixty-five were to be arrested and shipped to the concentrationcamp for Jews at Drancy.’

“On February 24, Rothke reported to Lischka on a conversation with Sauts, the chief of staff of Police Commissionner Leguay, about ‘the solution of the Jewish problem in France, and the Italians’ attitude toward the Jewish problem.

‘Sauts replied to me that the arrest of 2,000 Jews by the French police in the zone formerly and presently occupied in order to effect the measures of reprisals ordered by threw Paris Commander [Lischka] was underway. Before February 23, more than 1,500 able bodied Jews between the ages of sixteen and sixty-five, in each precinct. They were found either at liberty (registered addresses or not) or in the reception centers of the Social Service for Foreigners, or even in orphanages such as Chateau de la Hille in Haute-Garonne. Two contingents of one hundred persons were sent from the Noe and Vernet Camps directly to Gurs…

‘From all corners of the old unoccupied zone persons arrested were sent as swiftly as possible to the camp at Gurs. The total number of newcomers was far from enough, and so a significant number of those already at Gurs had to be included.

‘First Deportation- The screening for the first deportation, on February 26, was more rapid than careful. Everyone, as his name was called, was earmarked for deportation right away, even the sick and infirm. The only nationalities exempted were Hungarians and Turks. For the first time [from Gurs] Belgians, Dutch, Luxenburgers, and Greeks were included. The first convoy consisted of 975 men.

‘Second Deportation- The second deportation took place on the night of March 23. It numbered 770. Naturally it included a sizable number of former army volunteers, men who had been wounded in action, and even some who had been decorated.

‘The number of deportees thus far was 1,745, but the required number was 1,850. Consequently, the quota had to be filled en route. According to some information I have not been able to verify, it appears that four hundred persons who had been rounded up at Nerxon were put on the train that left Oloron on March 3. At any rate, it appears that the number of 1,850 was considerably exceeded.

“Among the countless testimonies from Jews as to their personal sufferings, we found one from a Hungariran interned at Gurs that confirms the above report:

‘Deportations began in early February 1943. A large number, about 150, of guards suddenly appeared. They were assigned to the blocks of huts in which were penned internees from other camps, especially for the one of Nexon. The deportation was to include all men of German, Polish, Austrian and Czech nationality up to the age of sixty five. At that time I was sixty four years , nine and a half months old; but fortuanately I was able, on the strength of my birth certificate, to pass myself off as a Hungarian, and in the general confusion the details were never checked out. ‘Among the deportees were a large number of Poles and Czechs who had fought in the French army or in the Foreign Legion. These too were handed over to the Germans. The fellow in the bed next to mine, a Germnan rabbi, Dr. Rosenwasser, was to be sixty five in six days, but he was deported just the same.

‘The deportation went on for two days. Two guards came after each of the ‘called’ and forced him to pack in five minutes, so impossible a task that many possessions were left behind.

‘ The internees destined for deportation were taken under heavgy guard to Block E, each carrying his belongings. Those who were allowed to remain in the hell of Gurs were invied by the deportees as the luckiest of men. All through the night you could hear women weeping in despair, for many had not time even to say good-bye to their sons and husbands. Several could not find outr whether their husbands had been deported. My wife did not sleep a wink for two nights for fear that I had been deported. On the day after the deportation the women were allowed to visit our block, and their sobs and cries whenb they saw their husbands’ beds empty were dreadful to hear.”[71]



Convoy 50, March 4, 1943



This list is in very poor condition. Over time the names have rubbed off the onion skin, and it is very difficult to decipher them.



Counting deportees by nationality we found 377 Poles, 268 Germans, 99 Austrians, 91 Russians, and 30 Dutch among the largest groups. One person was from Java.



There were 937 men and 66 women, according to the list. Only five children were in this convoy. Almost the entire quota of Convoys 50 and 51 was male, as described above.



The list is in two parts:

1. Gurs, 888 deportees, all men between 16 and 65.

2. Drancy, 136 deportees, with 22 crossed out (leaving 114), The sublist included the 66 women. Most of the people resided in or around Paris.



On board Convoy 50 was Leizer Gotlieb born November 6, 1891 from Russie, (Russia), and Charles Gottlieb, born May 13, 1898 from Fulda, Germany. [72]



The routine telex, dated March 4 (XXVc-211), was signed by Rothke. It annoced to the recipients, among them Eichmaann, that on the same day 1,000 Jews left the station at Le Bourget/Drancy (see section below on destination) for Cholm, the word Auschwitz is crossed out, under the supervision of Lieutenant Ott.



One deportee, Jacob Silber, escaped from this convoy. His escape and transfer to Auschwitz after drecapture are related in documents XXVc-216 and 220.[73]



Convoy 50 took close to a thousand people, some to Maidanek and the great majority to Sobibor, the former for immediate killing and the latter for slave labor. Indications are that most were killed at Sobibor; only four people from this convoy were alive at the end of the war. Convoy 50 included 10 children.[74]



• March 4-9, 1943: Nearly all the 4,000 Jews of Bulgarian Thrace are arrested and sent to Treblinka.[75]

Albert B., Good luck in your new place. Jeff





Hi Jeffery,



I'm collating the English, Scottish, Irish, American and other overseas Vances in the hope of finally sorting out the connection between them and my family of Vans of Barnbarroch. My aim is to collect every (!) recorded Vance family and try to piece together the entire picture, using all the available sources and taking into account the genetic data.



I'd really appreciate any information you have about any Vances (a gedcom would be ideal as it saves re-typing) and particularly any ideas, legends, or better still, knowledge, about their origins.



Having all the available information may help in eventually finding some of the earlier generations in Ireland and Scotland.



Best wishes,



Jamie.



http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~vfarch







Jamie, Thanks for contacting me. Blaise Vans of Barnbarroch is my 17th great grandfather. My 29th great grandfather is Harold de Vaux. "In 1066 three brothers, Hubert, Raymond and Robert, the sons of Harold (de Vaux) Lord of Normandy, accompanied William the Conqueror to England and their descendants became Lord de Vaux of Pentry and Bevar in Norfolk, of Gilliesland in Cumberland and Harrowden in Northamptonshire. Quite a number of the family emigrated to the United States." I would be happy to assist you with this endeavor and to share information on this Vance lineage. Jeff Goodlove

[22][22] At the time this deed was dated, it may be observed and is reasonably true, that Richard Stephenson (step-father of William and Valentine Carawford), had become weary of his work at the bloomer, after he had already spent 10 to 20 of his best years in partnership at the ironworks. No records are available to show there were any change in this partnership. All we know is, that he and his wife Onnor were selling by deed, to John Carlyle and George William Fairfad, in 1761-1762. Richard and Onnour Stephenson had complete control at this time, since they alone were the grantors, with their names and marks appearing at the conclusion of this instrument.

Apparently Richard Stephenson was failing in health at this time, as three years later we find him making his last will and testament.

[23]One of the grantees mentioned in this historical document and having a strong relationship to the Washington family, was George William Fairfax. John Carlyle had married sarah Fairfax, sister of Lawrence Washington’s wife, ‘nn (Fairfax) Washington.

[25] GW lent Crawford £5 for his journey, which the captain repaid upon his re turn to Mount Vernon later in the month (Ledger A, 302, ).

[26] GW had called a meeting of the officers of the Virginia Regiment at Winchester on 4 Mar. to report on the trip down the Ohio River that he had made the previous fall (Va. Gaz., P&D, 31 Jan., 7 Feb., and 14 Feb. 1771). Triplets: the ordinary of James and William Carr Lane at Newgate (no Centreville), Va.

[27] Before GW left Greenway Court, he obtained a grant from Lord Fairfax for the unclaimed land on Dogue Run he had surveyed on 24 Mar. 1770, a total of 201/2 acres (Lord Fairfax’s grant to GW, 4 Mar. 1771, Northern Neck Deeds and Grants, Book 1, 187, Vi Microfilm). This land gave him control of most of the area around his new dams and upper millrace, but a portion of the race still infringed upon William Harrison’s patent, a problem that was not resolved until he exchanged some small strips of land there with William Triplett 18 May 1785.

[47] [15] Since Uriah Springer was the Power of Attorney for Moses Crawford, Sr. (son of Lt. John Crawford and grandson of Col. William Crawford), this may have been the stretch of land Moses was entitled to. Probably was sold by Uriah Springer and the amount turned over to Moses Crawford, Sr., as part of his share.



Uriah Springer, (who was Power of Attorney to Moses Crawfored’s share of Lt. John Crawfor’s estate), had a son, Uriah Springer. The records of Brown County, Ohio, indicate that young Uriah Springer was collecting bounty lands belonging to his own father, (who was the second husband of Sarah, daughter of Col. William Crawford). Uriah Springer, Sr. randed as a Captain. Young Uriah Springer was a Justice of the Peace and he and his wife Nancy, lived at Williamsburg (which is in present Clermont Couynty, Ohio), on East Fork of the Little Miami River, and where many of the early transactions were recorded. Note: the relationship between young Uriah Springer and Moses Crawford, Sr., would be first cousins, since Moses and Moses Crawford, Sr., would be first cousins, since Moses father, John, was abrother to young Uriah’s mother, Sarah.
