Dear Jeff,

Today I am writing you from the President's Conference in Jerusalem. I am in a meeting with many world leaders including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, the head of the Quartet, the coalition that wants to divide Jerusalem. You have sent me here as your ambassador to stand for Israel.

After I spoke yesterday on the importance of defending Israel, I received these powerful and moving words in a note from a Holocaust survivor: Thank you so much for your lecture. I am a Holocaust survivor and a surgeon. To my mind, anti-Semitism and its disguised manifestations is a disease that thrives whenever lies, prejudice, ignorance, and sheer stupidity are not dealt with. This pathology, therefore, not only threatens the Jewish people but endangers every democratic society that cares about freedom and human dignity.

The level of anti-Semitism is an indicator of how effective its institutions are in combating the undermining factors of its health as a society. The enemies of any democratic society are manipulating the symptoms of the disease whenever possible. Anti-Semitism is also a symptom and functions like an alarm, similar to the canary in the mine: whenever the level of the poisonous fumes rises, the bird succumbs. Therefore, in combating anti-Semitism you are also helping America stay strong and preserve your rich heritage.

For the sake not only of the Jewish people but the entire world, we must stand with Israel now.



Modeh ani l'faneykha, melekh chai vekayam; rabbah emunatekha.

I thank you living and eternal King; great is your faithfulness.

Your ambassador to Jerusalem,

Dr. Michael Evans

HR Comment: Media Crossing the Line
June 23, 2011 11:04 by Simon Plosker

This opinion piece by HR Managing Editor Simon Plosker was originally published on YNet News on 22 June 2011.

“We are in a battle, and more than half of this battle is taking place in the battlefield of the media.” So said Al-Qaeda’s new leader Ayman al-Zawahiri in November 2005. But what happens when the media attempts to define the physical battlefield by becoming active participants in the story?

We should all be extremely concerned by the announcement that among those sailing on the imminent flotilla to Gaza are journalists representing mainstream media, including the New York Times and camera crews from CNN and CBS.

This is a clear example of the symbiotic relationship between the media and anti-Israel agitators such as those behind the flotilla. After all, it wasn’t the violent actions of the passengers on board the Mavi Marmara that caused Israel so much damage – it was the diplomatic and public relations fallout from an incident that occupied the international press for days after the event.

The “martyrdom” of nine Turkish passengers constituted a PR success for the IHH organization and its cohorts. Clearly then the only reason the mainstream media would jump on board the next flotilla would be the prospect of capturing a repeat performance. Likewise, the flotilla’s organizers are counting on the media to publish a story whose narrative has already been written – namely that of some plucky “peace activists” attempting to break a brutish and illegal naval blockade of the poor Palestinians in their open-air prison.

Imagine that the Israeli Navy boards the flotilla’s ships one by one, forcing the vessels to dock without incident for inspection in an Israeli port. This would be the ultimate failure on the part of the organizers to create a major incident as well as for the media on board who hope to be on the scene reporting on the biggest news story of the day.

‘Useful idiots’
Having established that both the flotilla participants and the accompanying media need each other, can we honestly count on the New York Times, CNN and CBS as well as other “embedded” journalists to report on the situation with objectivity even if the story doesn’t turn out to be as dramatic as they would hope?

Or will the mere presence of the media act as an invitation for confrontation and potential violence as so-called “activists” play for the cameras? And what of the journalists themselves? While over the years, some reporters have been inadvertently killed or injured by the IDF, we cannot expect soldiers entering a potential warzone, as the Mavi Marmara became, to run the added gauntlet of avoiding media personnel who have purposely positioned themselves in the crossfire. It not only risks the lives of the journalists but also those of Israel’s soldiers.

The Israeli government closed off access to the Gaza Strip for journalists during Operation Cast Lead, ostensibly for their own protection and to spare IDF troops from yet another factor outside of their control on the battlefield. There was a valid argument that this worked against Israel’s interests. The media, camped on a hilltop overlooking Gaza, was antagonized and vengeful while the images from Gaza itself were dominated by al-Jazeera and other less than objective sources.

This time, Israel would do well to remind those journalists on board the flotilla that they will be active participants in an illegal attempt to break what is a legal naval blockade under international law.

We can only hope that the mainstream media will not be influenced by the ideologues and “useful idiots” that make up the disparate groups on board, whose dominant zeitgeist is a hatred of Israel rather than a love of universal human rights. We will have to rely on the professionalism of the journalists to capture the reality of what occurs free from the prejudice that colors so much of the reporting on Israel.

Based on previous experience, however, we shouldn’t have high expectations. This ship has sailed. Will Israel be left clinging on to flotation devices, drowning in a sea of negative publicity or will this be a fishing expedition in calm waters?

The flotilla is sailing. It’s time to batten down the hatches once again.

This Day…

June 28, 1389: Ottoman forces crush the armies of Christian Europe in Kosovo, opening the way for the Ottoman conquest of Southeastern Europe. This event is known as the Battle of Kosovo. The memory of this battle lingers to this day and has provided fuel for hostility between the different religious and ethnic groups in the Balkans. This victory of the forces of Islam over the Christians made their position in Europe just that much more precarious. And Christian insecurity was never a good thing for the Jewish population.[1]



June 28, 1491

King Henry VIII was born on June 28, 1491. He is the third child. The Tudor dynasty is still young, and under constant threat by claims to the English throne by rival camps. Each tudor King must be strong and produce male heirs. According to records young Henry is well built and healthy. [2] Isabella of Aragon, the daughter of the Spanish King and Queen was Henry’s first wife. Before allowing the marriage to go forward, Henry had to promise that he would never allow Jews to settle in England. For the most part, Henry was true to his word although a small community of crypto-Jews may have settled in London. Henry’s other contact with Jews also surrounded his marriage to Isabella, only this time it revolved around his attempts to shed his wife. Henry sought to use the texts of what he called the Old Testament to prove that the marriage was invalid and that it was cursed by God. He attempted to get Rabbis in Italy to support his claims made to the Pope in Rome. The Rabbis decided that discretion was the better part of valor. Regardless of what the Bible said, they felt no need to risk their safety in Italy for the sake of capricious monarch living so far away.[3]



June 28, 1519: Charles V elected emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. Charles was the grandson of Ferdinand and Isabella. Charles had already been on the Spanish throne for three years when he became Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. As king of Spain, Charles was a worthy heir to his grandparents. He continued the Inquisition and enforced their philosophy regarding Jews and Marranos. But in the Germanic and central European lands that came under his role, the Emperor of the Holy Roman Emperor showed a more benign, tolerant (for his time) attitude towards his Jewish subjects. “He made no attempt to institute the inquisition or even tamper with privileges extended by past emperors. At the Diet of 1544 held at Speyer, “Charles reaffirmed Jewish privileges” to such an extent that “the Speyer document was considered the most liberal and generous letter of protection ever granted to the Jews.” Charles defended the Jews against the anti-Semitic attacks of Martin Luther. “When Spanish troops entered Germany in 1546 during the Emperor’s campaign against rebellious Protestant princes…Charles issued an order to his army not to molest the Jews.” [Editor’s note: If you can find an explanation for this seemingly schizophrenic behavior, please let me know.][4]

In A.D. 1610 (June 28, 1610), the King signified, through the Privy Council, his approval of the act of the Bishop; and assembled the six principal out of the twelve Islanders in Edinburgh, on 28th June, to hear His Majesty's pleasure declared to them. these were the Macdonald of Dunyveg, the MacKinnon of Strathordel1, the Macdonald of Sleat, (Gorme), Vic Ian Macdonald, captain of Clanrana1d, the MacLean of Dowart, and the MacLeod of Harris, to whom was afterwards added, Cameron of Lochiel.[5]

In 1610, King James I of England colonized Ulster and the Crawfords[6] were among those settling in Donegal County, Ireland, in the precinct of Portlough. These Crawfords were relatives of Alexander Crawford of Kilbimie. One was John Crawford, a brother of Sir James Cunningham, a brother of the Crawford brother's mother, and his sons, John, James and Cuthbert Cunningham. Alexander MacAuley of Durling was Sir Auley MacAuley's son and Auley MacAuley was married to Margaret Crawford, sister of Alexander and John Crawford.

John Crawford who came to America in about 1643, was bom in Kilbemie, Ayshire, Scotland in 1600. He was killed during Bacon's Rebellion in 1676. He was a son of a cadet of the Kilbemie Crawfords and a grandson of the eleventh or thirteenth Earl of Crawford. He settled first in Jamestown, Virginia, with his son David. No mention is made of his wife and it is assumed that he was a widower. He later settled in St. Peter's Parish (later called St. Paul's) in New Kent County, Virginia. He was living in Hanover County when it was formed. He was kinsman of George and William Crawford who emigrated to America in 1670.

Alexander, being a younger son, did not receive an inheritance or title, but he was a [7]seafaring man and owned his own ship. This may be the reason for their migration to Ireland. These Crawfords were the ancestors of the Scottish-Irish Crawfords that migrated to America.

This American line begins with George and William Crawford, who came to America in about 1670 from Lenarkshire, Ayrshire, Scotland and Donegal, Ireland and settled in Jamestown, James City County, Virginia. They were kinsmen° of John Crawford bom in Ayrshire, Scotland (1600-1676).

George Crawford was married and had three sons at the beginning of the voyage. John (b. 1663), William (b. 1665), and Alexander (b. 1668). During the voyage, a fourth son, Seaborn, was bom in 1670. Since no mention is made of his wife, it is assumed that she died and was buried at sea.

William Crawford, the unmarried (younger) brother, went over into Delaware and married a Huguenot lady of distinction. Josiah Crawford,'° in his unpublished manuscript of this family, states that she had the French name of Naudaine, and Vickers" gives her name as Honora Valentine.

I believe that the name of the Huguenot lady may have been Naudaine Valentine. It would seem strange for a French girl to have the Irish name of Honora (O'Nora).[8]



1611

The King James Version (1611), except for the spelling, replicates Tyndales word for word; “Our father which art in heauen, hallowed be thy name.”[9] The Geneva Bible continued to be the most popular version of the Bible for a generation after the King James appeared in 1611.[10] According to King James, this Bible was not to be a new translation but a revision ofg the Bishop’s Bible.[11]



June 28, 1712: Birthdate of Swiss philosopher, Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Unlike some other Enlightenment philosophers, Rousseau did not dabble in anti-Semitism. He may not have been Philo-Semitic but in his limited references to the Jewish people he wrote with unusual understanding and compassion. “We shall never know the inner motives of the Jews until the day they have their own free state, schools and universities where they can speak and argue without fear. Then, and only then, shall we know what they really have to say.”[12]

Friday June 28, 1754

Captain Coulon de Villiers sets out from Ft Duquesne with 600 French Marines and Canadian Militia as well as 100 Native Americans representing seven different tribes; Algonquins, Abenakis, Delaware, French Iroquois, Huron, Nippissing, and Ottawa. His orders were to "to march against the British... in order to avenge ourselves and chastise them for having violated the most sacred laws of civilized nations." [13]





June 28, 1754

Mackay arrived on June 28 at just about the same time one of Monaka­duto’s men galloped in, bringing word of a huge French and Indian force that had begun to move at dawn toward this place. Washington called a council of war among his officers and they all listened dispiritedly while Captain Mackay pointed out in clipped terms that to attempt to make a stand here was little short of insanity, since the site was overlooked by neighboring heights from which they could be fired upon in a most dev­astating manner.

With the weight of military logic against him, Washington agreed that it might be better to turn back and make their stand at the Great Meadows where the French would have to cross open ground to get at them. Better yet, they might even fall back all the way to the Will’s Creek station.

Once again the army was set into weary motion, and as one tired sergeant of the Virginia Regiment put it, “I reckon if them Frenchies do find us, they ain’t gonna have nuthin’ but movin’ targets, seem’ as how we ain’t quit movin’ since we got in this here army!”

Now, however, their few horses were so weakened from heavy use and insufficient grain that the Virginians had to carry most of their baggage on their backs and drag their nine swivels by hand over the rough and rocky trail. Even in this, Mackay’s regulars refused to give any help.

By the time the army reached the Great Meadows again — yesterday forenoon — the volunteers were so utterly sapped that they could not con­:inue. Whether this was the right place or not, there was no other choice but to stand and make their fight. It was with hardly any reaction that Washington read the dispatch awaiting him from Dinwiddie with the news that he had now been promoted to full colonel. With fatigue hanging over all of them here like a great wet shroud, he set his men about the work of improving these fortifications. It was with a touch of grim humor that he gave the place now the most appropriate name he could think of: Fort Necessity.[14]





June 28, 1755:

In a discussion of Braddock‘s march, McClenathan‘s 1906 book ―Centennial history of the

borough of Connellsville, Pennsylvania, 1806-1906‖ states:

The army moved slowly, and, on June 28, reached the Gist settlement at Mount

Braddock. From this point Braddock moved to the north along the old Catawba Indian trail, widening the road and making it passable for the heavy artillery as he went.



In a discussion about Braddock‘s road, Veech‘s posthumous 1892 book ―The Monongahela of

old…‖ states:

It was, until near its fatal termination, identical with Nemacolin‘s path[15]34, which, also,

from Gist‘s northward, with a few variations, was identical with the old Catawba trail, or

with its westward branch to the head of the Ohio.

The Wisconsin Historical Society‘s 1912 book ―Frontier defense on the upper Ohio, 1777-

1778‖ states:

Stewart‘s Crossings is one of the historic spots of Fayette County, Pa. In 1753 William

Stewart located there, about the same time that Christopher Gist built his cabin at Mount

Braddock. Stewart chose a ford on the Youghiogheny where the old Catawba Indian trail

from the Iroquois country crossed that river. ... Braddock‘s Road led over this crossing…

From the preceding quotes it seems clear that at least one of the mapped routes leading north

from Gist‘s Plantation to Stewart‘s Crossing35 is the Catawba trail. It seems equally clear that

any early trade between Wills Creek and ―Log‘s Town‖ would have followed one of the two

trails. Evidence of such trade is presented in the following chapter.

Gist‘s settlement and Fort Duquesne did not yet exist in 1751 when the map was initially

prepared, and were obviously added after 1751. The solid line route between Gist‘s settlement

and Fort Duquesne can only be the Ohio Company/Braddock‘s road, which also did not exist in

1751.[16]

June 1755

Stewart's Crossing was on the Youghiogheny River below present-day Connellsville, Pa. The site was named for William Stewart, who settled there in 1753 (COOK, 15). Braddock's army had crossed the Youghiogheny at this ford in June 1755 on the way to Fort Duquesne.





The sign at Braddock Park reads:

Before the Europeans, only Indian trails led through virgin forests that one stretched beyond the horizon. About 1750 Nemacolin, a Delaware Indian, blazed a trail past here for the Ohio Company. Four years later. Virginia militia under Lt. Col. George Washington cut a narrow “road through this wilderness from present-day Cumberland, Maryland to beyond Fort Necessity.

In 1755 Maj. Gen Edward Braddock’s British army widened Washington’s road and extended it to the Monongahela River. Braddocks Road was an amazing engineering feat. Hundreds of men cut a 12 foot-wide swath through the forest for Braddock’s 2400 soldiers, 13 cannons, about 100 wagons, and a herd of cattle. After the French and Indian War, this road became a main route west until the adjacent National Road reached the Ohio River in 1818.

June 28, 1755

[17]

According to a nearby historical marker (Figure 0412), Braddock‘s army forded the Youghiogheny River at

Stewart‘s Crossing on June 30, 1755.

Stewart’s Crossing

According to a 2000 article by the Connellsville Area Historical Society, Stewart‘s Crossing is

located slightly north of where Mounts Creek enters the Youghiogheny River. The place they

have identified is now the site of the historical society‘s Yough River Park, which is located at

Latitude 40.020557°, Longitude -79.599499°. A footnote on page 107 of Toner‘s 1893 book

―Journal of Colonel George Washington: commanding a detachment of Virginia Troops‖

places the crossing at a slightly different location (Appendix 0003). It states ―Stewart‘s Crossing

of the Youghiogheny river was about one mile below the present town of Connellsville, in Fayette

county, Pa. A ford at low water and a ferry at high water, it was on the line of the early Indian

trail or path, and bore the name of Stewart‘s Crossing as early as, or before, 1753. It was at this

ford, that Braddock‘s army crossed in 1755.‖[18]

A route that would have involved taking the Turkey Foot Road partway to Connellsville is

depicted on the 1817 Melish-Whiteside map of Fayette county. ///

The traveler would have turned west (left) on the road that the map identifies as running past White Horse Tavern319 in Somerset County. The survey of Zachariah Connell [19]

shows where them road crossed the ―Youghiogeni River‖ in 1794.[20]





Gary and Jeff Goodlove visit Crawfords Cabin, at Stewarts Crossing, late December 2004. This is where Braddocks army crossed June 28-30, 1755. Crawford must have been struck by the beauty of the area, as he crossed with Braddock’s army, because Stewarts Crossing or as he called it, “Spring Garden”, would soon be his home. The area is preparing for it’s 250th anniversary of the crossing in 2005.



June 28, 1762: Catherine II (whom the Boyars called “the Great”) ascends the throne of Russia. The German born Czarina followed her husband Peter III who died under mysterious circumstances in which she might have had a hand. The Jewish historian Salo Baron described her as possessing a rational attitude. Under the partition of Poland, Catherine became the ruler of Lithuanian with its large Jewish population. At first, Catherine tried to “thread the needle” of not offending the Russian Orthodox by granting her Jewish subjects too much freedom while taking advantage of their professional and business skills. In the end, she succumbed to pressure from Russian merchants who hid behind religion and limited the activities of her Jewish subjects to an area that would become known as “The Pale of Settlement.”[21]





June 28, 1776: Thomas Jefferson was assigned to prepare the Declaration and he did the worked in the Graff HOUSE, WHERE HE RENTED THE TWO second floor rooms. When he had it finished Adams and Franklin reviewed it. The document was completed and submitted to the Second Continental Congress on June 28. [22]

Scheffer's quarters, on August 29 again at Horn's Hook and

at the Morris House on September 23, 1778. The result of

all this investigation was attested by Justin Heinrich Motz,

upper auditor, and sent to the Prince of Hesse, September

23, 1778, officially signed and with the Hessian auditorial

June 28, 1910: James F. Goodlove was indicted for shooting in the back and killing on August 6 Percy Stuckey, alias Frank McCormick; convicted of manslaughter by Wyandot County Court of Common Pleas and sentenced to 15 years at hard labor in Ohio penitentiary. Conviction upheld by Circuit Court, but reversed by Ohio Supreme Court on June 28, 1910 on the basis of an error in the indictment. Court said Goodlove was indicted for the murder of “Percy Stuckey, alias Frank McCormick,” but prosecution had not demonstrated that Stuckey existed; prosecution’s evidence showed he had killed McCormick, not Stuckey. Goodlove was released.[32]



1911

The Blood libel trial of Menahem Mendel Beilis in Kiev.[33]





June 28, 1914

On Serbian National Day, a natural focus on the hatred of the Hapsbergs Prince Franz Ferdinand and Sophy of Austria were both shot and died on the way to the hospital. They were killed by Bosnian secret Army officers. The Pro Austrian crowd went wild. Everything Serbian was destroyed. [34]



June 28, 1919: The Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, five years to the day after a Serbian nationalist's bullet ended the life of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and sparked the beginning of World War I. In the decades to come, anger and resentment of the treaty and its authors festered in Germany. Extremists like Adolf Hitler's National Socialist (Nazi) Party capitalized on these emotions to gain power, a process that led almost directly to the exact thing Wilson and the other negotiators in Paris in 1919 had wanted to prevent--a second, equally devastating global war.[35]

1919

During the negotiations in Paris to determine the German reparations to be paid because of their responsibility in WWI the Germans send three expert Jewish bankers named Notger, Worberg and Wasser feeling that they will ensure the best possible treaty. 500,000 Jews fought in the German army. [36]



The terms of the treaty are harsher than the Germans ever imagined. Germany will be paralysed for generations.



“Gentlemen,

We have no illusions about the extent of our powerlessness. We know the force of German weapons is crushed. We recognize the power of hatred facing us and we heard the passionate demand that the victors shall make us pay as the defeated ones and punish us as the conquered ones. We are expected to admit that we alone are guilty. For me, to make such an admission would be a lie. The treaty which our enemies have laid before us is, in so far as the French dictated it, is a monument of pathological fear and pathological hatred, and in so far as the Anglo-Saxons dictated it, it is the work of a capitalistic policy of the most brutal and capitalistic kind.



Brockdorff Rantzau



The German negotiators quit. After five months of negotiations, Italy’s government falls. Mussolini, is in. The mapmakers have redrawn the borders of Europe, the Middle East, the far East and Africa.



Two days before the signing, the Germans scuttle their entire fleet. Their pride wont let the Allies have their warships.



The Treaty of Versaille will be signed. It will be repudiated by the Germans. Germany will pay 10 Billion dollars. China will not sign. Wilson has alienated a half billion people. Vittorio Orlando does not sign, and does not get his port. Benito Mussolini promises to do better. Wilson returns to lobby for the League of Nations.

The Great War is finally over. [37]



June 28, 1919

The Treaty of Versailles is signed in France, officially ending World War I.[38]



June 28, 1920: With a little prompting from Grant, Buck Creek Church leaders remembered what had worked eight tears earlier when the issue had been the survival of the BGuck Creek Church, itself, an old fashioned Methodist revival led by Gilbert Chalice. Chalice was now posted at West Union in Fayette County. Grant had joined him there for a series of revival meetings over a two week period in late March and early April. Chalices relationship with Grant and his continuying interest in the success of the consolidation project at Buck Creek made it relatively easy for Grand to enlist his help inb leading off the equivalent of a camp meeting revival to rekindle and expand enthusiasm for the project. Chalice agreed to “preach” at Buck Creek on Monday evening, June 28, in what was billed as the first in a week long series of “special meetings” to be held “in the interest of the church and Sunday school.” [39] Special meetins, indeed. The topic at each meeting was rural school consolidation, and Grant and laypersons in the church spoke almost nonstop on its behalf every night throughout the week. Rather than follow the usual format of a revival service and ask people to come forward and profess their faith at the end of the service each evening, persons were urged instead to come foreward and sign the ne4w petition for the creation of the Buck Creek CFDonsolidated School District. [40] The consolidated district described in the new petition deleted the troublesome Union No. 1 and No. 7 subdistricts, but otyherwise was identical to the previous one, and retained the heavily Catholic Union No. 4 and No. 5 and Hazel Green NO. 6 and No. 7 subdistricts. It contained twenty seven sections.[41]

This convoy left from Beaune-la-Roland. It was composed mainly of Jews from the Greater Paris area, arrested during the operations of May and August, 1941.



Among the 965 persons whom the Germans listed according to nationality were: 752 Poles; 53 French; 41 Czechs; 12 Romanians,; 10 Austrians; 6 Russians; 3 Germans; 2 Dutch; 2 Belgians; 10 stateless; and 73 undetermined.



There were 1004 men and 34 women, as indicated in the telex dated June 29 (XXVb-102) addressed by the Kommando of the SiPo-SD of Orleans to the anti-Jewish section of the Paris Gestapo. This document states further that : 34 Jewish women and 73 Jewish men were arrested in the Orleans region by the French police in order to fill the quota; the Prefect Martin-Sane took steps in favor of the French Jews; and Dr. Cremieux, form Paris, was part of this convoy which left Beaun-la-Roland at 5:20 AM.



Ten days earlier, on June 19, this departure time was indicated in the document #XXVI-35, which noted that the train would stop at Pithiviers at 6:08 to 6:15 AM.



The routine telex to Berlin, Oranienburg and Auschwitz was sent on June 28. Composed by SS Ahnert, it was signed by Dannecker, the head of the anti-Jewish section , who stated that the head of the convoy was Lieut. Kleinschmidt.



Other documents concerning this convoy are XXVb-36, 37, and 38 of June 17 and 18 (see also Convoysw 3 and 4).



The list has not deteriorated with time. It is arranged as follow:



1) List of the 34 Jewish women, the majority from Orleans, Blois andBorges. Twenty-three of the 34 are French. The oldest was 47; three of them were barely sixteen; and youngest, Jeannin Stickgold, was a schoolgirl of 15, leaving with her mother, Celine. Both were French, born in Paris.

2) “Sonderaktion” list (June 25, 1942). This “special action” specifies the arrest, in the Orleans region, of the 34 Jewish women and 30 Jewish men who together comprise this second list. One name, the 29th is crossed out: Ziffer, Adolphe, born May 5, 1904, in Belsetz, Polish, a painter, living in Paris, 5 Burenton Street, married, one child. Next to this name, it says in German, “Tot bei Fluchversuch,” or “perished while attempting to escape.” In fact, it has been verified that Ziffer survived.

The names are listed alphabetically. Some of the thiry men were the husbands of the deported women. The oldest was 58; the youngest, Bernard Jedwab, was 16. He was French, as were 15 others from this group.



3) List of 43 Jews, also arrest in the Orleans region. There were several fathers with the adolescent sons. The youngest, Maurice Cytrynowiez, was 15 years old; hes breother Guy was 17. Both were born in Paris.

4) List of 932 men departing from Beaune. They are listed alphabetically and include 68 names (the last 68) which were crossed out. Details include: camp number in Beaune, family name, first name, jplace and date of birth, family status, profession, nationality and residence.



Some 800 of the men on this list were between ages 32 and 42. [48]



There were 16 adolescents in this convoy. There were 9 boys and seven girls, all between the ages of 15 and 18.[49]





June 28, 1991: Associate Justice Brother Thurgood Marshall signaled an end to the era of a liberal Supreme Court. Brother Marshall was a pioneering civil rights lawyer who helped lead the fight to end racial segregation and served as US Solicitor General prior to his appointment to the highest court by President and Brotehr Lyndon B. Johnson as the first black ever to sit on the Supreme Court. As an attorney for the NAACP he successfully argued the case of Brown vs Board of Education before the Supreme Court ending the doctrine of "separate but equal." Brother Marshall's 24-year tenure on the bench was marked by his strong liberal voice championing the rights of criminal defendants and defending abortion rights, his opposition to the death penalty, and his commitment to civil rights. On July 1, 1991 President George Bush selected Clarence Thomas, a conservative black jurist to succeed Brother Marshall. A Prince Hall Mason Brother Marshall had been Director and counselor of the Prince Hall Grand Master's Conference and was a 33º AASR (Prince Hall). Prince Hall Masonic Grand Lodges and Prince Hall Masons contributed to and supported Brother Thurgood Marshall's efforts during his legal career to end legalized segregation. In many ways, Brother Marshall was more important in changing history than any other Civil Rights leader. (Chase's; Livingston Masonic Library)[50]

[15] 34 We have not seen any contemporaneous documents that actually refer to ―Nemocolin‘s path‖. The phrase seems to be something that a historian dreamed up long afterwards as sort of a shorthand way to credit Nemacolin for laying out and marking the Ohio Company road. The earliest and only credible documentary evidence of

Nemacolin‘s road work that we have seen was written by John Jacob in his 1826 book ―A biographical sketch of

the life of the late Captain Michael Cresap‖ (See Chapter Four). Mr. Jacob was in a position to know, based on

his close association with the Michael Cresap family, with whom Nemacolin‘s son lived. A number of other

statements related to Nemacolin seem to be ―stretched‖ from Jacob‘s few brief statements about Nemacolin.

35 Various other books also indicate that the route identified by Nemacolin followed the Catawba trail, including

George P. Donehoo‘s 1928 book ―A History of the Indian Villages and Place Names in Pennsylvania with

Numerous Historical Notes and References‖, and James Hadden‘s 1910 book ―Washington’s Expeditions

(1753-1754) And Braddock’s Expedition (1755)‖.
