April 30, 1245: Birthdate King Philip III of France, the son Louis IX (St. Louis). During Phillip’s reign, the Pope turned the attention of the Inquisition from suppressing the heresy of the Albigenses to the Jews of southern France who had converted to Christianity. The popes complained that not only were baptized Jews returning to their former faith, but that Christians also were being converted to Judaism. Pope Gregory X ruled that Jewish converts who had returned to Judaism, as well as Christians who converted to Judaism were to be treated by the Inquisitors as heretics. The instigators of such apostasies, as those who received or defended the guilty ones, were to be punished in the same way as the delinquents. When the Jews of Toulouse buried a Christian convert in their cemetery, they were brought before the Inquisition in for trial, with their rabbi, Isaac Males and having been found guilty were burned at the stake. Needless to say, Phillip did nothing to protect his subjects.[1]
King Philip III of France is the father-in-law of the 21st great grandfather of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.

April 30, 1290: Joan of Acre- Cnts. Gloucester.Princess Joan of Acre[5]- Cnts. Gloucester, born April, 1272 in Acre, Palestine. [6] The name "Acre" derives from her birthplace in the Holy Land while her parents were on a crusade.[7] Joan died April 23, 1307 in Austin Friar's, Clare, Suffolk, England. She was the daughter of 2. King of England Edward I (Longshanks) and 3. Eleanor of Cstille, "Cts de Ponthieu". She married (1) Earl/Gloucester3 Gilbert "The Red" 7th Earl de Clare "6th Earl" April 30, 1290 in Westminster Abby, London, England. He was born September 02, 1243 in Christchurch, Hampshire, England/Christchurch, England, and died December 07, 1295 in Monmouth Castle. He was the son of Earl/Gloucester Richard de Clare and Maud de (LACY) LACIE. She married (2) Baron Ralph de MONTHERMER (Earl Gloucester) January 1296/97.

Joan of Acre is the 20th great grandaunt of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.
April 30, 1349: The Jewish community at Radolszell, Germany, was exterminated. This appears to have been part of a wave of attacks on Jewish communities that took place during 1348 and 1349. They were in response to fears about the Black Death and a convenient way for non-Jewish nobles and others to avoid having to re-pay their Jewish creditors.[11]
April 30, 1492: Christopher Columbus is appointed Admiral of the Ocean Sea and governor of any land he discovers.[12]
April 30, 1492: The Edict of Expulsion for all the Jews of Spain was passed. Since professing that Jews were not under the jurisdiction of the Inquisition, the Church decided to level a ritual murder accusation against them in Granada and was thus able to call for the expulsion of both Jews and Marranos from Spain. The Marranos themselves were accused of complicity in the case, and both were ordered to leave within four months. Torquemada, the director of the Inquisition (and incidentally of Jewish descent), defended this against Don Isaac Abarbanel. The edict was passed, and over fifteen thousand Jews had to flee, some to the Province of Aragon and others, like Abarbanel, to Naples. Still others found temporary sanctuary in Portugal.[13]
April 30, 1492 - Columbus is given royal commission to equip his fleet
April 30, 1492 - Spain announces it will expels all Jews[14]
April 30th, 1506 - Philip of Bourgondy & England sign trade agreement[15]
April 30, 1556: A community of Marranos at Ancona (Italy) was devastated when Pope Paul IV retracted letters of protection issued by previous Popes' for protection of the Jews, and ordered immediate proceedings to be taken by the Holy Office. The result of the findings came in the spring and early summer, when 24 men and 1 woman were burned alive in successive proceedings. Their deaths are memorialized in that city every Tisha B'av.[16]
April 30, 1562: Port Royal, off the coast of South Carolina, becomes the first French colony in America.[17]
April 30, 1563 The Jews were expelled from France by order of Charles VI.[18]
April 30th, 1598 - 1st theater performance in America (Spanish comedy-Rio Grande) [19]
April 30, 1774: Note: The Massacre of Logan’s family and people at Yellow Creek by Daniel Greathouse, and the party of thirty-two borderers he had collected for the purpose, occurred on April 30, 1774.[20]
The exact date of this exploit of Greathouse and party, usually known as the “Yellow creek massacre,” so long a matter of uncertainty, is fixed by the above, beyond a peradventure—saturday April 30, 1774. The Mingo, Logan’s brother, known as John Petty, his mother and sister—the latter the mother of the child, then only two months old—were all slain. The child-prisoner being Logan’s niece, it follows that his relatives were not all killed.
The following brief biography of Logan is abridged from a manuscript life in the Draper MSS., 2D, chap. 12. The father of Logan was a French child who, captured when quite young, had been adopted into the Oneida tribe, and became a chief of much influence among the Indians of the Susquehann. Logan’s mother was a Cayuga, hence this was his tribe. For many years he lived at Shamokin (now Sunbury), in the Susquehanna valley, and was usually known as John Shikellimo, his appellation Logan being in honor of James Logan, secretary of the province; his Indian name was Tachnechdorus (branching oak of the forest). During the French and Indian War he maintained a strict neutrality, even seeking refuge in Philadelphia from the wiles of the savage allies of the French. Obliged to abandon his ancestrial home, he lived in various places in Pennsylvania, for several years in the Kishacoquillas valley, whose pioneers later told tales of his kindness, generosity, and general goodwill except when under the influence of liquor. About 1772, he removed to the Ohio, and it was at his town on Yellow Creek that the affray occurred on April 30, 1774, that has been cited as the occasion for Dunmore’s War. Having glutted his vengeance by four prolonged raids, during the summer after the negotiations with Lord Dunmore for peace had begun. The date of his arrival, as here given by Christian, is proof that he was not in the battle at Point Pleasant. Noticing his absence, Lord Dunmore sent his interpreter, John Gibson, to bring him to the conference. Logan refused to go, and upon that occasion delivered the now famous speech, so generally quoted as an example of Indian eloquence, to which Jefferson paid high tribute in his “Notes on Virginia”. There grew up an animated controversy concerning the genuineness of this speech, and its attribution of the murder to Cresap. It is now admitted that the substance of the speech, as it has come down to us, was actually delivered by Logan, but that he was mistaken in attributing the murder of his family to Cresap. See Jacob, Life of Cresap; Mayer, Logan and Cresap (especially documents in appendix to edition of 1867); Roosevelt, Winning of the West, I, pp. 236-239, 347-352. The rest of Logan’s life is sunk in obscurity. He removed to Pluggy’s Town, on the Scioto, then to the watersof Mad River, in Logan County, and later to the neighborhood of Detroit. He saved Kenton from the stake in 1778, and the next year was recognized in a savage raiding party in southwest Virginia. See Draper MSS., 5QQ11. He was killed by one of his own relatives on his way home from Detroit in 1780. His epitaph may be given in his own statement, that “he knew he had two souls, the one good and the other bad; when the good soul had the ascendant, he was kind and humane, and when the bad soul ruled, he was perfectly savage, and delighted in nothing but blood and carnage.” See Amer. Pioneer, I, p. 350. Dunmore’s War, Thwaites and Kellogg pp. 305-306
April 30, 1774: "I, William Huston, of Washington County, in the State of Pennsylvania, do hereby certify to whom it may concern: That in the year 1774 I resided at Catfish's Camp, on the main path from Wheeling to Redstone; that Michael Cresap, who resided on or near the Potomac River, on his way up from the river Ohio, at the head of a party of armed men, lay some time at my cabin. I had previously heard the report of Mr. Cresap having killed some Indians said to be the relations of Logan, an Indian Chief. In a variety of conversations with several of Cresap's party they boasted of the deed, and that in the presence of their chief. They acknowledged that they had fired first on the Indians. They had with them one man on a litter who was in the skirmish.
"I do further certify that, from what I learned from the party themselves, I then formed the opinion, and have not had any reason to change that opinion since, that the killing, on the part of the whites, was what I deem the grossest murder. I further certify that some of the party who afterwards killed some women and other Indians at Baker's Bottom also lay at my cabin on their march to the interior part of the country; they had with them a little girl, whose life had been spared by the interference of some more humane than the rest. If necessary, I will make affidavit to the above to be true. Certified at Washington, this 18th day of April, A. D. 1798.
(signed) "William Huston."
Immediately after the occurrence of the events narrated as above by Clarke came the killing of the Indians at Captina Creek and the murder of the relatives of the Mingo chief Logan at Baker's Bottom, on the Ohio, the date of the last-named event being April 30th. The so-called speech of Logan fastened the odium of killing his people in cold blood on Capt. Michael Cresap, of Redstone Old Fort. That the charge was false and wholly unjust is now known by all people well informed on the subject. Cresap did, however, engage in the killing of other Indians, being no doubt incited thereto by the deceitful tenor of Dr. Connolly's letters, which were evidently written for the express purpose of inflaming the minds of the frontiersmen by false information, and so bring about a general Indian war.
The chief Logan, with a hunting party of his Indians, and having with them their women and children, had pitched his hunting-camp at the mouth of Yellow Creek, about thirty miles above Wheeling, on the west side of the Ohio, and opposite Baker's Bottom on the Virginia side, where lived Joshua Baker, whose chief occupation was selling liquor to the Indians. From the time when Logan had first pitched his camp at Yellow Creek it had been the determination of some of the whites to attack it and kill the Indian party, but in their first attempt to do this they had been overruled in their purpose, chiefly by the influence of Capt. Cresap, as is shown in Clarke's account before quoted. But after Cresap and Clark had departed with their men for Redstone, and while they were making their way from Catfish Camp to the Monongahela, on the day succeeding the night which they spent at William Huston's cabin, the plan to kill the Indians of Logan's party was put in execution (during the absence of the chief) by enticing a part of them across the river to Baker's cabin, where a party of white men lay concealed. There liquor was given them, and then when they or some of them were in a state of partial intoxication the bloody work was done, all the Indians at the house being killed except an infant child. The party who did the perfidious and cold-blooded deed were under the leadership of Daniel Greathouse,[21] a settler on King's Creek near its mouth. Several accounts of the affair have been given, generally agreeing as to the main facts, but disagreeing to some extent as to the minor details. One account has it that in the evening preceding the tragedy a friendly squaw came across the river from Logan's camp and told Baker's wife with many tears that the lives of herself (Mrs. Baker) and her family were in danger, as the Indians were planning to come across and murder them. She wished well to Mrs. Baker, and thus risked her own life to serve her by bringing the information so as to allow the family time to escape. Upon receipt of this warning Greathouse's party was collected in haste at the cabin. No Indians appeared during the night, and on the following morning Greathouse and two or three others crossed to Logan's camp, and in an apparently friendly manner invited the Indians to come across to Baker's and get some rum. A party of them accepted the invitation and came. Most of Greathouse's men lay concealed in the back part of the cabin. Baker was to deal out rum freely to the Indians, and did so. When they became intoxicated the concealed men rushed out and killed them. In Mayer's "Logan and Cresap" the following account is given of the massacre:
"Early in the morning a party of eight Indians, composed of three squaws, a child, and four unarmed men, one of whom was Logan's brother, crossed the river to Baker's cabin, where all but Logan's brother obtained liquor and became excessively drunk. No whites except Baker and two of his companions appeared in the cabin. After some time Logan's relative took down a coat and hat belonging to Baker's brother-in-law, and putting them on, set his arms akimbo, strutted about the apartment, and at length coming up to one of the men addressed him with the most offensive epithets and attempted to strike him. The white man, Sappington, who was thus assailed by language and gesture for some time kept out of his way, but becoming irritated, seized his gun and shot the Indian as he was rushing to the door, still clad in the coat and hat. The men, who during the whole of this scene had remained hidden, now poured forth, and without parley slaughtered the whole Indian party except the child. Before this tragic event occurred two canoes, one with two and the other with five Indians, all naked, painted, and completely armed for war, were descried stealing from the opposite shore, where Logan's camp was situated. This was considered as confirmation of what the squaw had said the night before, and was afterwards alleged in justification of the murder of the unarmed party which had first arrived.
"No sooner were the unresisting drunkards dead than the infuriated whites rushed to the river-bank, and ranging themselves along the concealing fringe of underwood prepared to receive the canoes. The first that arrived was the one containing two warriors, who were fired upon and killed The other canoe immediately turned and fled; but after this two others containing eighteen warriors, painted and prepared for conflict as the first had been, started to assail the Americans. Advancing more cautiously than the former party, they endeavored to land below Baker's cabin, but being met by the rapid movements of the rangers before they could effect their purpose they were put to flight, with the loss of one man, although they returned the fire of the pioneers.:
Another account of the Baker's Bottom massacre was given more than half a century afterwards by Judge Jolley, who for many years was a resident of Washington County, Ohio, and who at the time of the occurrence was a youth living on the frontier. His account, as given below, was published in the year 1836 in "Silliman's Journal," viz.:
"I was about sixteen years of age, but I very well recollect what I then saw, and the information that I have since obtained was derived from (I believe) good authority. In the spring of the year 1774 a party of Indians encamped on the northwest of the Ohio, near the mouth of the Yellow Creek. A party of whites, called 'Greathouse's party, lay on the opposite side of the river. The Indians came over to the white party, consisting, I think, of five men and one woman with an infant. The whites gave them rum, which three of them drank, and in a short time became very drunk. The other two men and the woman refused to drink. The sober Indians were challenged to shoot at a mark, to which they agreed; and as soon as they emptied their guns the whites shot them down. The woman attempted to escape by flight, but was also shot down; she lived long enough, however, to beg mercy for her babe, telling them that it was akin to themselves. The whites had a man in the cabin prepared with a tomahawk for the purpose of killing the three drunken Indians, which was immediately done. The party of men then moved off for the interior settlements, and came to Catfish Camp (Washington) on the evening of the next day, where they tarried until the day following. I very well remember my mother feeding and dressing the babe, chirruping to the little innocent, and its smiling. However, they took it away, and talked of sending it to its supposed father, Col. John Gibson, of Carlisle, Pa. who had been for some years a trader among the Indians.
"The remainder of the (Indian) party at the mouth of Yellow Creek, finding that their friends on the opposite side of the river were massacred, attempted to escape by descending the Ohio, and in order to prevent being discovered by the whites passed on the west side of Wheeling Island, and landed at Pipe Creek, a small stream that empties into the Ohio a few miles below Grave Creek, where they were overtaken by Cresap with a party of men from Wheeling. They took one Indian scalp, and had one white man (Big Tarrener) badly wounded. They, I believe, carried him in a litter from Wheeling to Redstone. I saw the party on their return from their victorious campaign. It was well known that Michael Cresap had no hand in the massacre at Yellow Creek."
The concluding sentence in Judge Jolley's statement was written in refutation of the calumny which was circulated and for many years believed by the majority of the people of the country, that the murder of Logan's men and relatives was done by Capt. Michael Cresap or by his orders. Such an inference might be drawn from the first part of the statement of William, already given, viz., where he says, "I had previously heard the report of Mr. Cresap having killed some Indians, said to be the relations of Logan, an Indian chief." But his memory was evidently at fault. He could not have previously hears of the killing at Yellow Creek, as it did not occur until after the time to which he refers in the certificate. And in the latter part of the same document he disproves his previous statement by saying, "I further certify that some of the party who afterwards killed some women and other Indians at Baker's Bottom also lay at my cabin on their march to the interior." Another statement that seems to be conclusive proof of Capt. Cresap's innocence of any participation in the atrocity at Baker's Bottom is found in an affidavit of the man who shot Logan's brother on that occasion, viz.: "I, John Sappington, declare myself to be intimately acquainted with all the circumstances respecting the destruction of Logan's family, and do give the following narrative, a true statement of that affair: Logan's family (if it was his family) was not killed by Cresap, nor with his knowledge, nor by his consent, but by the Greathouses and their associates. They were killed thirty miles above Wheeling, near the mouth of Yellow Creek. Logan's camp was on one side of the river Ohio, and the house where the murder was committed was opposite to it on the other side. They had encamped there only four or five days, and during that time had lived peaceably with the whites on the opposite side until the very day the affair happened."

Martha and George Washington had no children together, but they raised Martha's two surviving children. Her daughter, nicknamed Patsy, died as a teenager during an epileptic seizure, classed as SUDEP. John (Jackie) Custis returned from college to comfort his mother.
Custis later married and had children; he served as an aide to Washington during the siege of Yorktown in 1781 during the American Revolutionary War. He died of "camp fever" (probably epidemic typhus). After his death, the Washingtons raised two of John's four children, Eleanor Parke Custis (March 31, 1779 - July 15, 1852), and George Washington Parke Custis (April 30, 1781 - October 10, 1857). They also provided personal and financial support to nieces, nephews and other family members in both the Dandridge and Washington families.
Content to live a private life at Mount Vernon and her homes from the Custis estate, Martha Washington followed Washington to his winter encampments for each of eight years. She helped keep up morale among the officers.
After the war, she opposed his agreeing to be President of the newly formed United States of America, and refused to attend his inauguration (April 30, 1789). Once he came to office, as the First Lady, Mrs. Washington hosted many affairs of state at New York and Philadelphia during their years as temporary capitals. (The capital was moved to Washington D. C. in 1800 under the Adams administration, following construction of the Capitol and White House).[22]

April 30, 313: Licinius defeated Maximinus at the Battle of Tzirallum, thus making him the Emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire. The Emperor of the Western Roman Empire was his brother-in-law, Constantine. The two in laws would clash repeatedly until Constantine defeated Licinius and eventually killed him despite the pleas of his sister to spare her husband’s life. We know that Constantine made Christianity the state religion of the Roman Empire with all that that would mean for the Jews of Europe. Would it have been any different if Licinius had triumphed? Who knows? Lucinius did subscribe to the policy of tolerance towards Christians but those who were writing history in the fourth and fifth century tended to create an idyll-ic vision of Constantine which meant painting a less than flattering portrait of Licinius. Gibbon follows the same path in his history of the Roman Empire.[31]
AD 314 – 335 Sylvester I is pope - promotes (Sunday) first day observance
"Pope Sylvester instructed the clergy to keep the feriae. And, indeed, from an old custom he called the first day [of the week] the "Lord's [day]," on which the light was made in the beginning and also the resurrection of Christ is celebrated."[380]
But he [Sylvester] ordered [them] to call the Sabbath by the ancient term of the law, [to call] the first feria the "Lord's day," because on it the Lord rose [from the dead], Moreover, the same decreed that the rest of the Sabbath should be transferred rather to the Lord's day [Sunday], on order that on that day we should rest from worldly works for the praise of God.[15] [32]
April 30, 711: Moorish troops led by Tariq ibn-Ziyad land at Gibraltar to begin their invasion of the Iberian Peninsula (Al-Andalus). For the Jews living under the Visigoth rulers of Spain, this is good news. The victory of the Moors will mark the start of what is called the Golden Age. Ironically, the Golden Age will begin to tarnish not because of Christians, but because of an invasion by another, more religiously conservative group of Moslems.[33]
April 30, 1863: During the Civil War, President Lincoln issued a proclamation proclaiming Thursday, April 30, 1863 as a National Day of Fasting.[34]

April 30-May 1, 1920: The first institute was to be held in the Buck Creek Church on April 30-May 1. The success of the Buck Creek institute was to be measured by more than just the number of people attending. It was also hoped that the petitions then being reaedied calling for the establishment of the Consolidated Independent District of Buck Creek would be signed in large numbers by those attending the special services on
Sunday, thereby obviating any necessity for doodr to doore canvassing at a time when farmers were beginning their spring field work. Therefore, it was a serious setback when the institute had to be canceled at the last minute because inclement weather rendered local roads impassable. This opportunity by bring in the experst to help generate enthusiasm had been lost. It was unlikely that a new one could or should be scheduled until later in the spring when crops were in the ground. Furthermore, the poor road conditions that had forced the cancellation of the institute also made it difficult to implement a door to door campaign. When the roads finally did improve, farmers would need to be completing their spring plowing. The campaign to form a consolidated school district had to be delayed again.[48]
April 30, 1921: Objectors filed their appeal on April 30, well within the ten day period specified by the law. Ottilie set May 10 as the date for the county board to meet..

[21] Pioneer Greathouses in America
Daniel Greathouse
The History of Hancock County says, “In 1770, Daniel Greathouse built a small fort near Newell in Hancock County. The fort, which promised protection to those who lived near it, attracted several other families to the area.” Jack Murray Greathouse says Daniel settled on 400 acres located in the Mingo Bottom of the Ohio River in 1771 but sold his rights to this land in 1775.[21][19] “Daniel improved land in 1776, in now Preston County, West Virginia beside Richard Morris, whose daughter, Mary, he had married that year. October 7, 1801: Orator, John Beard of Brooke County, “Long before 1778 Daniel Greathouse had made a settlement and improvement there, and by Deed dated 13th July, 1775, sold to William McMahan.”[21][20] Daniel is showing as a sergeant in Captain Michael Cresap’s Company in 1775 [21][21] Daniel was involved in an incident referred to as the "Chief Logan Massacre" that happened across the Ohio River from Yellow Creek in 1774 at the cabin of Joshua Baker. Yellow Creek is located about 40 miles above Wheeling. Several versions of this incident have been recorded. Cresap was originally accused of the attack, but due to intervention by friends of the family, Thomas Jefferson made an investigation into the matter, and there are records of people’s reports of what they believe happened. As a result of the evidence that came forth, Jefferson substituted the following in his original statement about charges against Cresap. "Captain Michael Cresap and a certain Daniel Greathouse, leading on these parties, surprised at different times traveling and hunting parties of the Indians having their women and children with them and murdered many. Among these were unfortunately the family of Logan, a Chief celebrated in peace and war, and long distinguished as a friend of the whites."
Daniel died in now Brooke County in the fall of 1777, leaving a son Gabriel. His widow married Andrew McCreary.”[21][22] There is a record in the court minutes of Yohogania County March 25, 1778 of John Greathouse being appointed administrator for the estate of Daniel. Daniel's estate was filed in Ohio and Monongalia counties. The court records show his widow, John, his brother, and Gabriel his son.[21][23] It is believed that he had only one son, Gabriel, because of a court action that was brought at a later date in Kentucky. Chris Bailey cites on page 246 of his book, “Gabriel Greathouse declared under oath in his chancery suite in 1802 that he “is the son and only heir and representative of a certain Daniel Greathouse dec’d . . . “Greathouse vs. McCreery, Paris District Court, Bourbon County, Kentucky, 1802.

While this engineering project was going on, Taylor split his small force (5,200) to block the Red River below Alexandria while also maintaining pressure on Banks, who had to remain who had to remain in the latter town to protect the fleet.

April 29, 1776: On this day in 1776, shortly after the American victory at Boston, Massachusetts, General George Washington orders Brigadier General Nathanael Greene to take command of Long Island and set up defensive positions against a possible British attack on New York City.
Greene's troops were arranged to defend themselves against a frontal attack in Brooklyn Heights across from Manhattan. On August 26, 1776, the British took the vast majority of Long Island with ease, as the island's population was heavily Loyalist. On August 27, the troops at Brooklyn Heights disintegrated under an unexpected attack from their left flank. In a British effort to earn goodwill for a negotiated peace, they allowed American survivors to flee to Manhattan. Otherwise, the War for Independence might easily have been quashed less than three months after it began.
Born in Rhode Island in August 1742, Greene was elected to the Rhode Island legislature at the age of 28 in 1770. Overcoming his Quaker scruples against violence and warfare, Greene joined a local militia at the outbreak of the American Revolution in 1774 and was promoted to the rank of brigadier general of the Continental Army by Congress in 1775.
At the siege of Boston in March 1776, Greene was assigned to General Washington's brigade and a lifelong friendship between the two men began. Shortly after several American losses in and around New York in the summer and fall of 1776, Greene was promoted to major general of the Continental Army under Washington.
After leading troops into several successful battles, including the Battle of Trenton in December 1776 and the Battle of Germantown in October 1777, Greene succeeded Thomas Mifflin as quartermaster general in March 1778. Greene was named commander in chief of the Southern Army in October 1778; he commanded troops on the battlefield throughout the rest of the revolution. After twice turning down offers to become secretary of war, Greene retired from the military in 1785. Less than one year later, in June 1786, Greene died at his Georgia home.[1]
April 29, 1778; A pair of stocks, whipping post, pillory in the court house yard and a compleat bar inside the court house ordered to be built.

April 29, 1825: Treaty of Indian Springs
Description: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ec/Menawa_high_resolution.jpg/200px-Menawa_high_resolution.jpg
Description: http://bits.wikimedia.org/skins-1.18/common/images/magnify-clip.png
Menawa visited Washington, D.C. in 1826 to protest the Treaty of Indian Springs. Painted by Charles Bird King.
There are two Treaties of Indian Springs with the Creek Indians. The first treaty was signed January 8, 1821. In it, the Lower Creek ceded land to the state of Georgia in return for cash payments totaling $200,000 over a period of 14 years. The state of Georgia was to receive payment from the Federal Government, to satisfy claims of citizens of Georgia against the Creek for seizure or destruction of property prior to the 1802 act of Congress that regulated relations with Indian tribes.
The leading signatory for the Lower Creek was the chief William McIntosh. The son of a Creek woman of the prominent Wind Clan and a Loyalist Scots officer, he supported the 'civilizing mission' of the U.S. Indian Agent Benjamin Hawkins. He led the Lower Creek Towns in the Creek War of 1813-14, against the traditionalist Red Stick faction of the Upper Creek, and the First Seminole War.
He acquired slaves and developed a medium-sized cotton plantation on the Chattahoochee at Lockhau Talofau (Acorn Bluff) in present-day Carroll County. For his role in signing the First Treaty of Indian Springs, McIntosh received 1,000 acres (4.0 km2) of land at Indian Springs. There he built a second plantation and a hotel to draw tourists to the local hot springs, then a popular destination.
The second treaty was signed at the Indian Springs Hotel on February 12, 1825 and ratified March 7, 1825. It was negotiated by McIntosh and his first cousin, Georgia Governor George Troup. Under this treaty the Lower Creek surrendered all of their lands east of the Chattahoochee, including the sacred Ocmulgee Old Fields, and accepted relocation west of the Mississippi River to an equivalent parcel of land along the Arkansas River. In compensation for the move to unimproved land, and to aid in obtaining supplies, the Creek nation would receive $200,000 paid in decreasing installments over a period of years. A controversial article provided additional payments to McIntosh for the lands granted to him in 1821.[1]
The treaty was popular with Georgians, who re-elected Troupe in the state's first popular election in 1825. It was signed by only six chiefs, and the Creek National Council denounced it, ordering the execution of McIntosh and the other Muscogee signatories, as it was a capital crime to alienate tribal land. On April 29, the Upper Creek chief Menawa took 200 warriors to attack McIntosh at his plantation at Lokchau Talofau. They killed him and another signatory, and set fire to the house.
The second Treaty of Indian Springs was ratified by the U.S. Congress by one vote, but a delegation from the Creek National Council, led by Chief Opothleyahola, traveled to Washington with a petition to John Quincy Adams to have it revoked. They negotiated the 1826 Treaty of Washington, in which the Muscogee surrendered most of the lands sought by Georgia under more generous terms, retaining a small piece of land on the Georgia-Alabama border and the Ocmulgee Old Fields. They were not required to move west.
Troup refused to recognize the new treaty, and ordered the Creek lands surveyed for a land lottery. He began forcibly evicting the Lower Creek. Adams threatened federal intervention, but backed down after Troup mobilized Georgia militia.
The area around the spring is protected as Indian Springs State Park between Jackson and Flovilla in Butts County, Georgia.[5][6]

April 29, 1861: The Maryland Legislature votes to remain in the Union.[9]
April 29, 1863: The return of daylight revealed the entire fleet anchored near the
encampment. The divisions of Carr and Osterhaus and Hovey embarked on board the transports and gunboats, landing at Bruinsburg, about 12 miles below, about noon. Here three days' rations of hard bread, sugar, coffee and salt, were issued as quickly as they could be landed from the vessels, and at 4 o'clock P. M. the column was en route for the rear of Grand Gulf. About 9 o'clock the column, having reached the highlands of Mississippi, were halted for supper. An hour later, it was again in motion. The divisions of Carr and Osterhaus were in advance, followed closely by that of Hovey. Not knowing at what point to expect the enemy, the advance moved forward cautiously and slowly. Every soldier has cause to remember that this feeling for the enemy in the dark is by far the most laborious and fatiguing duty that can be imposed on an army. It is a movement that requires constant readiness and cautious dealing, while the drowsy powers are busy in their efforts to weigh down the eyelids during the intervals of its many halts. Occasional shots far in advance will create murmurs among the massed hosts in the rear
like that of a dreamer disturbed by familiar sounds in his slumbers. By daylight the skirmishing in front had become quite brisk, announcing the presence of the enemy in force. Halting at the foot of Thompson's Hill, the troops were rapidly preparing their breakfast. The General, riding along the line, put a sudden stop to these operations by orders to fall in immediately. Cannon were booming on the hill, the divisions of Osterhaus and Carr being already partially engaged. The column moved rapidly up the hill, and were immediately formed in two lines of battle on the right of Magnolia Church, the first brigade, under command of Gen. McGinnis, in advance. Although within rifle range of the enemy's position; the thick foliage and dense undergrowth completely hid his lines. The country was exceedingly broken, there being a continuous succession of knobs and precipitate hillsides, while almost impenetrable canebrakes choked up the deep, narrow ravine. An effort to turn the enemy's right resting on Bayou Pierre had failed,
and by means of posting small bodies of men on the knobs he was enabled to develop a long line to the left. From these knobs then he must be driven. Small parties of skirmishers were now sent out to discover his position and practicable routes leading to it on our right, while our left held the enemy in check, preventing any effort that might be made to assail and turn it. By this means the several knobs were successfully charged, and the enemy's left made to retire. The enemy stubbornly resisted every advance, and would abandon his position only when forced to. To the regiment or brigade nearest the most practicable route would be assigned the duty of charging the enemy from his position. During the day there was considerable strife among field and staff officers as to which regiments or brigades should have the honor of assailing the enemy's positions when more than were required were at hand. An amusing incident of this nature occurred about 8 o'clock A. M. The line in struggling forward through a canebrake had become much confused and broken up, the men of the 28th and 24th Iowa regiments becoming mingled. Lieut. Col. Wilds, presuming Col. Byam to be at the center of the regiment and regulating the line there, mistook the colors of the 28th Iowa for our own and followed them with the four right companies. But it was afterwards ascertained that Col. Byam had left the field, having become sick and faint, and much to his own injury had failed to have the fact reported to Col. Wild, upon whom the command now devolved. Major Wright on the left, with the colors and the six remaining companies, bore to the left in order to pass around the canebrake, thus dividing the regiment. A similar accident happened to the 34th Indiana, of the first brigade. The six companies under Major Wright and five companies of the 34th Indiana arrived first in an open space beyond the canebrakes.
Here General Hovey ordered Col. Cameron of the 34th Indiana to charge a battery which the enemy had planted on the crest of the hill. Col. Cameron remarked that there were but five companies present, but that he would charge it if the General so ordered.
Col. Slack, commanding our brigade, proposed uniting the two parts of regiments. To this the General objected, desiring that our regiment should do it. Col. Slack then eagerly responded: "Then let the 24th Iowa go in. Six companies can do it. The Hawkeyes will do it." But the General refused, and the remaining five companies of the 34th arriving soon after, the regiment was ordered to advance to the charge. About this same time two regiments of Carr's division, the 8th and 18th Indiana, charged the same point from another direction, the three regiments carrying the point, and each claiming the honor of the victory. The battle continued in this way until nearly nightfall, no regiment on either side being exposed to fire at any one time very long, owing to the broken nature of the ground. At intervals a deep, sudden roll of musketry and artillery, followed soon after by a shout of triumph, announced the capture of some advanced position by our forces. Then a lull, during which the enemy took a new position, while our artillery and infantry were advanced. One point after another was gained in this way on the right, until the enemy began to entertain fears of being cut off from the Port Gibson road. The entire right of this line had been forced back until it was nearly at right angles with the line on the left.
The retreat soon after began in good earnest. The victory was won. Several hundred prisoners, part of his train and much of his artillery fell into our hands. The primary object of the battle was accomplished. Grand Gulf was evacuated. The whole loss in the 24th Iowa was but one killed and seven wounded. It was a hard battle, but bloody only at intervals. The difficulties of approaching the enemy's several positions were almost insurmountable. The field upon which the battle was fought is exceedingly picturesque and beautiful. The many knobs are crowned with the most beautiful of all trees, the magnolia. Their rich, polished green leaves glisten brightly in the sunshine, as if always bathed in dew, while their large, fine white flowers load the air with sweet fragrance.
This battle is memorable as the first in that brilliant series of conflicts resulting in the capture of Vicksburg. As it was the first battle in which most of the troops enlisted in '62 had participated, the Generals, whose reputation rested upon their success, preferred that the veteran troops of '61 should lead the charges, supported by the less experienced in battle; a distinction, however, that was never repeated. The courage displayed by them on this day, whenever opportunity offered, convinced them that this distinction would hereafter be wholly unnecessary. It is not necessary to criticize the conduct of Col. Byam in this engagement. It is, perhaps, fair to presume that what he said of himself was true. He was sick and faint, or, as the boys ould have it, sun-struck at 8 o'clock in the morning, reporting at the hospital, two miles away, for medical assistance. As for the rest, both officers and men conducted themselves with the customary valor of Iowa's sons, receiving their just meed of praise in their brigade commander's report of the engagement. Wearied almost to exhaustion by the day's labors, and suffering for
want of sleep, the men lay down on their arms, in support of a battery planted on a hill above us. It not being certain that the enemy had gone, and fearing, too, lest he might be re-enforced during the night, everything was in momentary readiness for an attack. All around was silent until midnight, when the pickets in front were falsely alarmed by some means, and discharged their pieces. A moment later and the line was in complete readiness to repel the advance of the enemy, should he come. But the alarm proving to be a false one, we lay down again, and rested without any further disturbance until daybreak. Learning soon afterwards that the enemy had evacuated Grand Gulf, and were flying towards Vicksburg, we took up our line of march for Port Gibson, about four miles distant, where we arrived about noon, and encamped in the streets. The town is situated on Bayou Pierre. It is tastefully and regularly laid out, containing originally perhaps four thousand inhabitants. It had no defenses, and our visit was evidently a very unexpected, as well as unwelcome event. It had never been occupied by any troops of either army before, and had a neat, cleanly appearance. [10]

On April 29, 1865: Company B was detailed as an honor guard to escort General Sherman’s train on a flying trip to Wilmington. The regiment had not been paid for eight months, and Captain Rigby did not even have enough money to purchase a paper collar for his dress uniform. Borrowing the only one in the command from Sergeant Lyons and carefully splitting it in two, the Captain was able to make his toilet both going and coming. On the return trip the honor guard unceremoniously beat up a Confederate captain who insulted them.[14]

Creek Church during the spring of 1920. Grant and the younger members of the Brotherhood took every available opportunity to agitate for the proposal. They argued that consolidation was needed to relieve crowding in the Buck Creek school. While some of the other schools in the area were not yet crowded, it swas argued that they soon would be. Buck Creekers had come to believe in the inevitalility of their own community success story. As part of what Buck Creekers hoped would be the final push in the successful crusade for consolidation, Grant organized a series of “community life institutes” focusing on rural school consolidation to be held at several locations in Delaware County. The newlsy created Rural life Department of Upper Iowa University, a Methodist college in Fayette County about fifty miles northwest of Buck Creek, assisted in this venture. [17]

April 29, 1939: A group, organized by Esau, met with Rudolf Mentzel at the REM to discuss the potential of a sustained nuclear chain reaction. The group included the physicists Walther Bothe, Robert Döpel, Hans Geiger, Wolfgang Gentner (probably sent by Walther Bothe), Wilhelm Hanle, Gerhard Hoffmann, and Georg Joos; Peter Debye was invited, but he did not attend. After this, informal work began at the Georg-August University of Göttingen by Joos, Hanle, and their colleague Reinhold Mannkopff; the group of physicists was known informally as the first Uranverein (Uranium Club) and formally as Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Kernphysik. The group’s work was discontinued in August 1939, when the three were called to military training.[7][8][9][10][20]
April 29, 1942: The Jews of the Netherlands are ordered to wear the yellow badge.[21]
April 29, 1944: Kistarcsa, Hungary, was the site of the first deportation of Jews from Hungary to Birkenau Concentration Camp.[22]
On April 29, 1945: Hitler married Eva in their bunker hideaway. Eva Braun met Hitler while working as an assistant to Hitler's official photographer. Braun spent her time with Hitler out of public view, entertaining herself by skiing and swimming. She had no discernible influence on Hitler's political career but provided a certain domesticity to the life of the dictator. Loyal to the end, she refused to leave the bunker even as the Russians closed in.
Only hours after they were united in marriage, both Hitler and Eva committed suicide. Warned by officers that the Russians were only about a day from overtaking the chancellery and urged to escape to Berchtesgarden, a small town in the Bavarian Alps where Hitler owned a home, the dictator instead chose to take his life. Both he and his wife swallowed cyanide capsules (which had been tested for their efficacy on his "beloved" dog and her pups). For good measure, he shot himself with his pistol.[23]
April 29, 1945: The German concentration camp at Dachau is liberated by United States troops.[24]
