Take care, Anon

Anon, todays blog (check dates May 5, 1383, May 5, 1435, May 5, 2010) would be a good example of some of the connections that you (and others) might be interested in. It is the best example that we have at this point. With the use of DNA we can find common ancestors with the people we find in the history books. Jeff



May 542: The first victims fell ill in the city of Constantinoples waterfront district. Within four months it had infected half of the city. Justinian survived. Shipments were discontinued in and out of the city. People quickly began to run out of food. When all was said and done nearly half of the population of the empire, about 100 million people were dead. [1]

May 5, 1028: King Alfonso V of Castile passed away. In 1020, Alfonso had presided over the Council of Leon which adopted laws that created a certain amount of equality between Christians and Jews. The legislation was in response to the threat of Moslem forces that were in control of much of the Iberian Peninsula.[2]

May 5, 1210: Birthdate of King Alfonso III of Portugal whose reign was a period of comparative benevolence for his Jewish subjects. Jews were “exempt from the canonical decrees which compelled the wearing of a distinctive sign and the payment of tithes to the Church.” Also, Jews were appointed to positions of governmental responsibility. These policies were continued by his successor, King Diniz who appointed Judah, the Chief Rabbi of Portugal to serve as finance minister.[3]



1213

By the thirteenth century, Roman Catholism had become firmly entrenched in England. This was clearly seen in King John’s recognition of the kingdom as a papal fief in 1213, and the King resigning his crown to the Pope.[4]

May 5, 1260: Kublai Khan becomes ruler of the Mongol Empire. “Arab and European travelers, including Marco Polo in the 13th century, spoke of meeting Jews or hearing about them during their travels in China (then called the Middle Kingdom). Polo recorded that Kublai Khan himself celebrated the festivals of the Muslims, Christians and Jews alike, indicating a large enough number of Jews in the country to warrant attention by its rulers. Historical sources also describe Jewish communities at various trade ports, including Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Ningbo, and Yangzhou. Only the community in Kaifeng survived.”[5]



1261: In a court case in Barkshire in southern England in 1261 a man by the name of Robert, son of William LeFevre was an outlaw and was brought before the court and the clerk of the court changed his name to Robert the Hood.[6]



1263



Opposite Kyle of Lochalsh and the Skye Bridge, Caisteal Maol sits on a small island just to the east of Kyleakin. The name of the village comes from 'kyle' - the narrow strait of water between Skye and the mainland - and 'akin' after the Norwegian King Haakon IV who sailed through here in 1263 on his way to defeat at the Battle of Largs which ultimately decided the ownership of the Hebrides. [7]

1264

King Boleslav V, the Chaste, granted the Jews liberal charters of self-government (1264). The Jews were helping him to build cities and to found industry and commerce, enabling him to compete economically with the West. Like the nobels, the Jews owned land and large estates. They lived in city and village. Casimir III, the Great, the Charlemagne of Poland, founded universities, encouraged trade, and imported even more Jews to accelerate the hum of commerce and industry. Vivovt, Grand Duke of Lithuania, opened that country for Jewish settlement.[8]

1266

During the government of the Lords of the Isles, which commenced on the abandonment of their conquests by the Norwegians to the King of Scotland, A.D. 1266 and terminated at the forfeiture of the last lord, A.D. 1493 (temp. James III.), but little can be gathered concerning the deeds of the clan, as, in consequence of their connection with the MacDonalds, many a bold enterprise was doubtless attributed to that powerful tribe which held sway over the lesser tribes, and which would naturally include their actions amongst their own.[9]



1383 to 1389

Vivelin/Gutleben in Strasburg.[10]

On May 5, 1383, however, Gutleben had his right to live in Colmar extended by an additional five years.[11]

May 5, 1435: Jewish residents of Speyer, Germany, were expelled.[12]

1435
The second sentence is incomplete, and the full sentence is not
available on Google Books. But here is what I was able to reconstruct:

'One also finds in these sources a Jew by the name of Gottlieb /
Gutleben, who first [appears in the sources (?)] as a Jew from
Mülhausen in 1409 and 1435...'

Ferner begegnet in den Quellen noch ein Jude namens Gottlieb bzw. Gutleben, der
erstmals 1409 und 1435 noch immer als Mülhauser Jude nachweisbar

Good luck with your research,

Philippe[13]

May 5, 1588: The Council of Hanover ordered the severance of all business connections between Jews and Christians.[14]

1588

With the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 (an attempt by the Spanish to reclaim England for Roman Catholicism), Protestantism took firm root in England for the first time. Though not sympathetic to the Purtitan element in the Church of England (those who sought to “purify the Church of Roman Catholic tendencies), she sought to be tolerant of most of those who objected to her policies. Like her mother, Elizabeth was a devoted student of Scripture and gave encouragement to the distribution of the English Bible among her subjects.[15]

May 5, 1645: During the civil wars that followed, the MacKinnons declared for the crown and joined the standard of Montrose; under him they fought in the desperate battle of Inverlochy, February 2, 1645, and the victory of Auldearn, May 5, 1645. Concerning the latter field a curious incident has been preserved. A Highland eye witness narrates: " At a critical moment, a hero, named Ranald, the son of Donald, the son of Angus MacKinnon in Mull, was keeping the pikemen at bay with his shield on his left arm, and his gun in his other hand presented at them. Some bowmen ran past him, letting fly their arrows with deadly effect among the Gordon soldiers; and one of these archers who, on looking over his shoulder, saw the pikemen kept at bay by Ranald, suddenly turned his hand and shot him in the face, the arrow penetrating one cheek and appearing out at the other. Ranald's dirk was lost, and his bow useless; so, throwing away his gun and stretching out his shield to save himself from the pikes, the warlike islander attempted to draw his sword, but it would not come; he tried it again and the cross hilt twisted about; a third time he made the attempt, using his shield hand to hold the sheath, and succeeded, but at the expense of five pike wounds in his breast. In this state he reached the entrance to the garden (broken ground consisting of enclosures, rocks and brushwood in front of the village of Auldearne, consigned to the charge of the gallant Alastair Macdonald, with one hundred of his own clan and the MacKinnons, the rest of his command consisting of three hundred half-hearted Gordons; it was to this little band Montrose entrusted the defense of the Royal Standard which he usually carried before himself), closely followed by the enemy's pikemen. As the first of the latter bowed his head under the gate in pursuit, Macdonald, who had been watching his opportunity, with one sweep of his claymore struck it off, which,” says the chronicler, “hit upon Ranald's houghs; the head fell in the enclosure and the body in the door-way; Ranald lifted up the head, and, looking behind him at the door, saw his companion in arms, who cut away the arrow that stuck in his cheek and restored him his speech.”

It was about this date that a sad disaster befell one branch of the clan. Lauchlan Mor MacKinnon, the chief’s son. was brought up, owing to the bond of friendship entered into between the families in 1601 by the Earl of Argyle at Inverary; but having married a daughter of the MacLean of Duart. Lauchlan was induced to join that chief in a descent on the lands of his former benefactor with- a body of two hundred men. on their approach, being recognised by their badge of pine, the Campbells were so incensed that they would give no quarter, when a sanguinary rout took place, in which the MacKinnons were fairly cut up. [16]



May 5, 1646: King Charles I surrendered to the Presbyterian forces paving the way for the rise to power of Oliver Cromwell. Cromwell would play a critical role in the return of the Jewish community to the British Isles.[17]



At the battle of Worcester, in 1646, Lauchlan Mackinnon was made knight banneret. His son Daniel had two sons, John, whose great-great-grandson died in India, unmarried, in 1808, and Daniel, who emigrated to Antigua, and died in 1720. His eldest son and heir, William, of Antigua, an eminent member of the Legislature of the Islands, died at Bath, in 1767. [18]

May 5, 1682

William Penn’s liberal “Frame of Government” goes into effect in Pennsylvania.[19] Ebenezer Zane was with Penn when the site of Philadelphia was purchased from the Indians. Ebenezer Zane, like Penn, was a Quaker, but he did not entirely agree with his fellow Quakers’ strong contention that Europeans were only guests of the native inhabitants and, as such, should in all matters treat them gently and with kindness, regardless of what provocation there might be to do otherwise.[20] Philadelphia is now known throughout the world as the scene of many great historical events connected with the founding of the United States of America.[21]



1682: Already in 1682 William Penn (1644-1718), wrote about the Indians: “As to the original of this extraordinary people, I cannot but believe they are of the Jewish race, I mean of the stock of the ten tribes so long lost; …The ten tribves were to hgo to a land ‘not planted nor known,’ which certainly Asia, Africa, and Europe were.”[22]


Sunday May 5th, 1760: George Washington’s Journal: Warm and fine. Set out for Frederick to see my Negroes that lay Ill of the Small Pox.



Monday May 5th, 1760: George Washington’s Journal: Reach’d Mr. Stephenson in Frederick abt. 4 O’clock. Here I was informed that Harry & Kit, the two first of my Negroes that took the Small Pox were Dead and Roger & Phillis the only two down with it were recovering from it. Lodgd at Mr. Stephenson.



Richard Stephenson (d. 1765) of Frederick County married the widow Onora Grimes Crawford, mother of William and Valentine Crawford. By Mrs. Crawford, Stephenson had five sons, four of whom appear in the GW diaries. As an early entrepreneur in the Shenandoah Valley, Stephenson joined John Vestal and others in 1742 to set up an iron bloomery project. He hired GW to survey land for him in 1750 and during the French and Indian War was a supplier to GW’s troops. GW sometimes referred to Stephenson as “Stevens” or “Stephens.”.[23]

No. 5.—William CRAWFORD TO George WASHINGTON,



May 5, 1770.

DEAR SIR:—Inclosed is a rough draft of your land, and calculated with the allowance of ten per cent, in the hundred.

I did not enter that land for you on Ten-mile creek, as it appears to me, from the new map done by Mr. Sute,[24] that the Mopongahela will be left out when the back line is run at that bend at the mouth of the creek, or, at any rate, where the land lies. I offered to pay the office fees if they would return me the purchase money if the land did not fall in Pennsylvania. They would not agree to return me the money at any rate, but told me, if I did not think it in Pennsylvania, not to enter it, as such precedents would be attended with confusion and trouble to them. Therefore, I thought proper to postpone it till I went up and run a line from Fort Pitt till it intersects the line now run, which will determine the matter without doubt. If it should be in Pennsylvania, then the clerk will send me a warrant, as we have agreed upon. I shall have the other piece at the mouth of the run surveyed as soon as I go out, as the surveyors will be there by that time.

There is no certainty about the quit-rents what they will be; and it is supposed they will open the office upon the former terms; as no land from over the mountain has been entered since the new manner of opening of it; nor will any be fond of doing so, whieh will oblige them to opeti on the former terms. The Indian traders’ land[25] is to be laid off on the north side of the Little Kanawha, from the mouth to the head, and by the Laurel Hill[26] till it falls in with the Pennsylvania line; and then with the latter till it falls to the head or as far as it goes, and then on a straight line on the west side until it strikes the Ohio, which will leave out a great part of all the land on the west side of the Monongahela to the Ohio from the proprietors’ line as, according to the opinion of such as judge the matter, the western bounds will be a crooked line agreeing with the meanders of the Delaware River.[27] The Indian traders have not got their land confirmed to them yet from any account they have had. Captain Trent is still in England waiting to have it settled.[28] I shall do every thing in my power to inform myself in regard to the lands, where they are to be laid off, till I see or hear from you. I am, etc.

P. S.—When you come up,[29] you will see the whole of your tract finished. You can have It all patented In one tract. I spoke to Mr. Tilghnan[30] about it, and told him that you wanted to command some part of the river. He agreed that the surveyor should run it out and ou pay all under one, and have a patent for the whole in one. Colonel Carlisle has promised me to show you Mr. Sute’s map, just completed from the best intelligence—from actual surveys, from reports, or the best accounts he could get.[31]



May 5, 1774-Thursday



On the Jacob’s Creek tributary of the Youghiogheny Valentine Crawford was very nearly finished with the letter he had been writing to Col. George Washington, advising him of the peril now afoot in the frontier districts.

The letter was already long and detailed and largely contained information that had been brought to him yesterday. He wrote that his brother. Capt. William Crawford, traveling with a friend, Edgar Neville, had left his Youghiogheny settlement in the forenoon yesterday, heading on horseback for Neville’s home in Pittsburgh They had left William Crawford’s place under the watchful eye of his friend and indentured servant, John Knight, who for the past year had been working off the cost of his passage from his native Scotland by tutoring William Crawford’s children Less than an hour after the two men started, they encountered a group of men who were obviously very nervous. These men had admitted to being part of the Greathouse party until reaching Catfish Camp. where they had broken away on their own. They had with them some fresh Indian scalps and, in a cradleboard basket, an infant almost continuously crying. On being questioned rather sternly by Crawford they soon adimtted everything that had occurred at Baker’s Bottom.

Crawford and Neville were horrified at the news. The baby, since being taken four days earlier, had been fed only a few mouthfuls of gruel and had been given a chunk of jerky to suck upon and was obviously crying from hunger. Neville questioned the man who had her and learned that she was the daughter of trader John Gibson and an Indian squaw and that her mother had been butchered in the attack. The man who was carrying the baby said he had taken no part in that, although he admitted to giving thought to knocking the infants brains out, but he said that he had been prevented frnni doing so by a welling of pity at her helplessiiess. He added that ‘‘all hell was bustin loose’’ and reckoned that all the settlers in the whole upper Ohio Valley were on the move to the east and probably reaching Redstone about now.

Crawford had demanded the child, and the man gave her to him, obviously thankful at being relieved of the unwanted responsibility. Chiding the men for their part in the incident—though they themselves heaped all the blame on Cresap, Great-house, Tomlinson, Baker and a few others_—Crawford had sent them on their way, and then he and Neville immediately retraced their own steps to his settlement on the Youghiogheny. There he had placed the infant in the care of a wet—nurse, one of his slaves who was nursing her own baby and in moments the baby girl was sucking greedily at her breast.

Aware that what the Cresap and Greathouse parties had perpetrated would certainly result in a general Indian war, Crawford and Neville separated and set out to warn all the settlers they could of the impending danger and advise them to get east of the mountains as soon as possible.2~ Crawford’s route took him as far distant as Brownsville and the other Redstone area settlements, after which he had finally stopped by briefly to see Valentine and tell him the had news.

Valentine went on to explain to Washington that by the time his brother arrived, he was already aware of the amazing exodus in progress but had no certain knowledge of the cause. William’s visit had filled in the gaps, and while the information being relayed to Washington was thirdhand, it was being related as received. Nov wanting to get the letter off by express as quickly as possible, Valentine Crawthrd her to finish what he was writing, penning the words swiftly:



and, on Saturday last, about 12 o’clock, there was one Greathouse and about 20 men fill on a party of Indians at the mouth of theYellow Creek, and killed 10 of them and brought away one child a prisoner, u’Iiicli is now at my brother William Crawford’s. This alarm, has made the people move from over the Monongahela, the Skrtee (Charriers Creek] and Raccoon as fast as you ever saw them. In:

the year 1756 or ‘57 in Frederick County, Virginia. Theree were more than one

thousand people (Crossed he Monongahela in one day at three ferris not one mile apart.



On the Youghiogheny, only a few miles distant, settler Gilbert Simpson was also writing a letter to George Washington, who had hired him to construct a mill Though unnerved by all that was occurring, his inherent tenacity cattle to the fore­front. After relating some of what he had heard, he added:



The country at this time is in great confusion, the Indians declaring war against us. I suppose there have been broken up and gone If at least 500 families wifhin one week past, but I am determined to stand to the last or lose my life with what I have. There have been two or three skirmishes with whites and Indians here have been 19 Indians killed and one white man killed and one wounded—all between the Mingo Town and Pittsburgh, & I believe it has been the white peoples fault altogether.



Finally, William Crawford, back home again after his marathon round of warning settlers, also wrote to George Washington:



Our inhabitants are much alarmed, many hundreds having gone over the mountains In short a war is every moment expected; we have a council now with them. What will be the event I do not know. I am now setting out for Fort Pitt at the head of 100 men; many others are to meet me there and at Wheeling, where we shall wait the motions of the Indians, and shalt act accordingly. We are in great want of some proper person to direct us, who may ommand—Mr. Connolly, who now commands, having incu:ned the displeasure of the people. He is unable to take command for two reasons; one is the contradiction between us and the Pennsylvanians, and the other that he rather carries matters too much in a military way and is not able to go through with it. I have some hopes that we may still have matters settled with the Indians upon a method properly adopted for that purpose.



However much Capt. Crawford and others hoped to conciliate the Indians, their efforts continued to be undermined by individual acts of barbarity.



To THOMAS LEWIS



Mount Vernon, May 5, 1774.

Sir: Your letter of the ?st. of March did not come to my hands ‘till the later end of last month; and no direct opportunity that I have heard of, has offered since, this letter taking the chance of conveyance from place to place only.— Immediately upon receipt of your favor by Mr. Young, I dispatched a letter to Capt. Crawford (covering yours to him) pointing out the necessity of his attempting to qualify as your Deputy, at your Court for April, before this I did not urge him (as he appeared anxious to return home) to take that rout, for two reasons: in the first place I did not advert to the necessity of this qualification; in the next place ‘till your letter arrived (which was after he was gone) I did not know whether you would accept of him as an assistant or not. At the same time I wrote to him, I forwarded Letters under his cover, (in order to be deliver’d by him) to Mr. Madison, Mr. Jones and Capt:

Hog, requesting the favour of each to facilitate his business if he came in on this errand; but what has been the result of all this I know not, never having heard a syllable from him since.

I come now to take notice of what you have said in respect to Mr. Michael Cresap, whose claim to the round bottom, and other Lands along the banks of the Ohio for (as I am credibly inform’d) thirty miles, is equally well founded; and founded Upon no other right, or pretence than that of claiming every good bottom upon the river; building a cabbin thereon to keep off others, and then selling them, and going on to possess other Lands in the same manner. This if common report tells truth is the foundation of Mr. Cresap’s claim to the round bottom; set up long after I had made choice of it, and had had it survey’d as a stage, or Lodgement between Fort Pitt, and my Lands on the Great Kanhawa: it is true, as this is esteem’d a valuable bottom, he may have taken more pains in the improvement of it, than of the others; but his choice, or even knowledge of it, was long after I had had it survey’d.

This being the amount of his claim, I will now give you the substance of mine, which cannot be better done, than by informing you, that in the fall of the year 1770, when I went to view the Lands, which had been since surveyed under the Proclamation of 1754,I made choice of this spot of Land (called the round bottom) marked Trees, and directed Captn. Crawford, when he went down the spring following to survey it, which he accordingly did, as may appear by his certificate inclosed you by Mr.Young. Sometime after this, hearing that Doctor Brisco had taken possession of it, and actually had or was going to fix Negroes on it, I wrote him a letter of which No i is a copy, upon which I was informed he had quit it. Sometime after this again, I learned that Mr. Michael Cresap had taken possession of it, built houses, and was working hands thereon, upon which I also wrote him a letter of which No. 2. is the copy; and was given to understand that Mr. Theobald (or Tibbles, as he is commonly called) who was Partner with Mr. Cresap in this Land, was determined to give it up; receiving at the same time a message by Capt. Crawford from Mr. Michael Cresap, that if I would let him have the Land he would pay me what I thought the worth of it; to which I returned for answer, that as it was the only piece of Land I had upon the Ohio, between Fort Pitt and the Kanhawas, and found it very necessary as a stage or Lodgment, in coming up the river, I could not agree to part with it, but again offered to pay for any labor or improvement, which he had made.

In this situation things were, when I wrote to you by Mr. Young; otherwise, if I had thought that Mr.Cresap could,with any color of Justice, or even at any rate (as he must be conscious, that the mode he has practiced,of engrossing and selling Lands is unwarrantable) have opposed my claim to this Land; I should have mention’d it to you before, but in truth, from every thing that has passed, I concluded that he had yielded to my prior claim In like manner may my title to the three thousand acres on the waters of Shartee and Racoon be disputed:

For after that also was surveyed for me; after I had bought the rights (or claims rather) of several people to it; & after I had actually built several houses thereon, by way of strengthening my right, numbers of People went, in a forcible manner, and in defiance of repeated notices, & took possession of the Land, & built cabbins in such a manner as to prevent even entrance into my houses, & may, as Mr. Cresap has, dispute my title under pretence of having improved it;—but I do not expect that such claims as these can ever have an operation to my prejudice, or ought to retard my Patent; however, I do not wish to hasten any neasure faster than it can be done with propriety. I am Sir, [32] [33]

May 5, 1779?

The Regiments von Lossbcrg, and Knyphausen left their huts the same day and moved into camp before New York, while Major General von Kosboth and the two Grenadier Battalions Linsing and Lengerke moved out of New York to occupy the huts of the said rcgiments. Much work is being done on the new fortifications on Laurel Hill, this side of Kings Bridge, the daily working parties consisting of three hundred men, two thirds of whom are Hessians. Half a shilling sterling and additional rum are paid each man for each working day. His Excellency General von Knyphausen reviewed the drill of all the regiments on this island on the 5th, 6th, and 7th of this month. Everyone found the skill in drill, without exception, to be praiseworthy, likewise the condition of their accouterments, both large and small. The field requisites have been carefully completed and are recognized as being well suited for a campaign. Moreover, we are very fortunate to have few or no sick in the regiments.

Our field artillery as well as the English have been furnished with powder and balls, so that they can have target practice in addition to the customary shooting exercises. General Pattison [34] paid Captain Krug a well-deserved compliment when he told his officers that he wished they could fire as well. General Clinton gave the Regiment von Knyphausen a Hessian fieldpiece, which had been taken at Brandywine with another brass cannon of al­most the same caliber, and also an ammunition wagon.

May 5, 1785

“Woodstock”

Zachariah Connell







May 5, 1813: Early on the morning of May 5, a regiment under Colonel Dudley Ward landed from boats, stormed the batteries on the north bank, and began to spike the guns. Ward then apparently lost control of his men. They began to pursue the Indians without orders, abandoning the captured batteries. Three companies of the 41st and some Canadian militia had stood firm, and they recaptured the batteries. Procter summoned Tecumseh's Indians to the north bank of the river, and Ward's disorganised regiment was destroyed in confused fighting. One hundred and seventy fought their way back to the boats and escaped into the fort, but roughly two hundred were killed and five hundred taked prisoner. The British lost over fifty men killed or captured, Indian casualties are unknown.

On the south bank, the American sortie against the British battery there was partially successful. Colonel John Miller captured the battery and took thirty prisoners, before two companies of the 41st intervened and drove him back to the fort. Meanwhile the rest of Clay's force reached the fort to reinforce the garrison.

Immediately after the battle, Indians snatched American prisoners from their British guards, and killed thirty or more, with clubs, tomahawks and musket fire. Procter did not intervene to prevent this massacre. The killings were eventually stopped by Tecumseh, who called Procter a woman for failing to act. [36]

“They do not know what they say. If it comes to a conflict of arms, the war will last at least four years. Northern politicians do not appreciate the determination and pluck of the south. Southern politicians do not appreciate the numbers, resources and patient perseverance of the North. Both sides forget that we are all American. I foresee that our country will have to pass through a terrible ordeal, unnecessary expiration for our national scenes. “

Robert E. Lee[37]

I believe that you should add Gutleben to your list of surnames. My

last name is Gutleben. I have done extensive research. My 14c.

ancestors were in Alsace Lorraine and were Jewish. They were also

called Gottlieb and Vivelin. The name is also sometimes spelled

Guthleben, though not often. In the U.S., it is not a common name,

indeed, in Europe it is dying it out. My people converted to

Christianity sometime in the 1500s, I believe. Anon.



Anon,

Thank you for contacting me. I am very interested in your family. We have several things in common including our name (which is also rare), proximity (near Germany), religion (both Jewish and Christian). By your subject heading I assume you found me through the DNA project. Have you considered joining the project? That would help to determine where your ancestory fits. A DNA test is easy, not too expensive and will tell you a great deal about who your common ancestors are. I could help you if you need assistance. I just run the project, I don't profit from it. I am also very interested in your family tree. Did your family come to the United States or stay in Europe. I would be interested in following your tree back to the 14th century if that would be possible. Our common Jewish ancestors date back to that time period. We know this through our DNA matches. I would love to hear more. I have more information that you would probably be interested in.



Jeff Goodlove

[24] Philip Sute was among the early settlers in the Redstone (Brownsville) region, in what is now Fayette county, Pennsylvania.

[25] During hostilities with the western Indians in 1763-4, known as Pontiac’s War, a number of traders met with serious losses at their hands. At the treaty of Fort Stanwix, in the autumn of 1768, grants of land were made to several of these traders by the tribes there represented. These lands were located between the Kanawha and Monongahela rivers. Titles, however, to be valid, needed confirmation “v the Crown.

[26] The Laurel Hill is a mountainous range in the south-western part of Pennsylvania. It extends into West Virginia by the name of the Chestnut Ridge; while the Chestnut Eidge proper, lying to the west of it, after entering the latter State, changes its name to Laurel Hill. The two ranges are not many miles apart.

[27] It was, at one time, claimed by the Penns and others, that the western boundary line of Pennsylvania should he made to meander the same as the Delaware river, from which it was to be run at a distance of five degrees of longitude. Upon old maps, it is seen sometimes marked in that way. This absurd idea, however, was, in the end, given up.

[28]William Trent, a native of Pennsylvania, was early engaged in the Indian trade. He also took an active part in the Seven Years’ War; and, during Pontiac’s War suffered the loss of a trading-house near Fort Pitt. He was allowed a giant of land by the Indians, at the treaty of Fort Stanwix, in 1768, along with other Indian traders; these grants he was seeking to have confirmed.

[29]Washington was then contemplating a visit to the Western country to view the land upon the Ohio and its tributaries, which, by the treaty of Fort Stanwix, in 1768, had been purchased of the Indians— to the end that he might secure good tracts in that locality for the Virginia officers and soldiers who had served in the French War, and who were entitled, according to rank, to two hundred thousand acres.

[32] “The late Col. Angus McDonald, near Winchestcr, and several other individuals, went out in the spring of 1774, to survey the military bounty lands, lying on the Ohio nd Kanawha rivers, allowed by the king’s proclamation to the officers and soldiers of ic army for their services in the preceding war with the Indians, but were driven if.” (See Kercheval’s History of tile Valley of Virginia, p. 145.) This survey led to that was called Dunmore’s War, in which McDonald, who was a Scotchman, played active part. His home was at Glengary, near Winchester, Va. On the verso of a letter sm McDonald (Jan. 8, 1774), in the Washington Papcrs, is the following indorsement, in Washington’s writing: “On the 28th. of this Inst. Jany. I gave the within lair. McDonald a power to Rent the Land there mentioned from year to year or for term of years not exceeding five to the best advantage he could and to receive the eats for Iny use. G. Washington. 1774.” McDonald attempted to raise a loyalist regiment, in the Revolution and was arrested.
