August 2, 338 BCE: A Macedonian army led by Philip II defeated the combined forces of Athens and Thebes in the Battle of Chaeronea, securing Macedonian hegemony in Greece and the Aegean. Phillip was the father of Alexander Great. His victory paved the way for Alexander’s conquests which had a major impact on the Jewish people of which we are reminded each year when we celebrate Chanukah.[1]
336: BCE: Alexander the Great on the throne of Macedon.[2]
336 to 323 B.C.:
[3]
August 2, 1222: Raymond VI , Count of Toulouse and Marquis of Provence passed away. “He was so sympathetic to the Jews that Pope Innocent III caused him to take an oath ‘that he would deprive the Jews of their offices and that he would never appoint any Jews or in any way favor them.’”[4]

August 2, 1274: It was not until September 24, that Edward left Acre. Arriving in Sicily, he was met with the news that his father had died on November 16.[56] Edward was deeply saddened by this news, but rather than hurrying home at once, he made a leisurely journey northwards. This was partly due to his health still being poor, but also due to a lack of urgency.[57] The political situation in England was stable after the mid-century upheavals, and Edward was proclaimed king at his father's death, rather than at his own coronation, as had until then been customary.[58] In Edward's absence, the country was governed by a royal council, led by Robert Burnell.[59] The new king embarked on an overland journey through Italy and France, where among other things he visited the pope in Rome and suppressed a rebellion in Gascony.[60] Only on August 2, 1274 did he return to England, and was crowned on August 19.[61][6]
August 2, 1297: Edward I eventually relented for the sake of his daughter and released Monthermer from prison in August 1297.[17][7] Monthermer paid homage August 2, and being granted the titles of Earl of Gloucester and Earl of Hertford, he rose to favor with the King during Joan's lifetime.[24][8][9]
August 2, 1389: Catholic Archdeacon and Jew hater Ferran Martinez is denied the right to act as a judge or to preach after going against an order of the Pope. The Archbishop of Seville issued this strong punishment because Martinez refused to issue permits for Jews to build new synagogues, in accordance with the wishes of the Pope.[10]
In 1390, the MacLeans had charters from Donald, Lord of the Isles, for the keeping of these very castles.[11] Ottoman Turks complete conquest of Asia Minor, Viracocha becomes 8th Inca ruler, myth tells how he travels to Pacific and never returns, death of Robert II of Scotland and rule of Robert III, death of Italian poet Antonio Pucci, Death of Rupert I as palatine, death of Robert II of Scots – Robert III rules, Byzantines lose last possessions in Asia Minor to Turks, Wyclif’s writings reach Bohemia, Alhambra fortress completed in Granada Spain, Turks conquer all of Asia Minor, death of Robert II of Scotland – Robert III rules to 1406, Ottoman Turks complete conquest of Asia Minor, Viracocha becomes 8th Inca ruler, myth tells how he travels to Pacific and never returns, death of Robert II of Scotland and rule of Robert III, metal type used in Korea. [12]
1391:Within Spain, the New Christians, the term applied to Jews who had accepted conversion in 1391, often prospered and achieved prominence in public life.[13] By the fourteenth century, the situation for Jews had turned more dismal. With the Crusades in full force, all non-muslims fell under suspicion. Jews were forced to wear distinguishing clothing. Living as dhimmis became so onerous that many Jews gave up and converted to Islam. In the violent summer of 1391, a pogram erupted is Seville and spread through out Spain and Portugal. Countless Jewish communities were destroyed.[14] Historians believe as many as 100,000 of the estimated 350,000 Jews in Spain at the time were killed for resisting conversion. Frightened and demoralized, hundreds of thousands of Jews converted[ to Christianity over the next thirty years.[2].[15] In 1391, as anti-Semitic violence flared up across the border, Portugal experienced a lesser version of the same. Jews were ordered to wear badges of their faith. They were herded into walled ghettos with guarded gates and barred from being out after sunset.[16] In Seville, a Jew-hating priest and agent provocateur, (Archbishop of Ecija) Ferron Martinez, had sparked the killing and stealing. The Jewish quarter was attacked, and four thousand of Seville’s Jews were murdered. Their property was plundered as greed merged with hatred. This purge was quickly dubbed the guerra santa contra los Judios; holy war against the Jews.” [3][17] Priests call for mandatory conversion of Jews in Spain. [18]
August 2, 1492
• The period of the expulsion of Jews from Spain began, 1492.[3] [2][19]
Jews Expelled from Spain[4] [3]
• Christopher Columbus marked the expulsion with an entry in his diary. “In the same month in which their Majesties [Ferdinand and Isabella] issued the edict that all Jews should be driven out of the kingdom and its territories, they gave me the order to undertake with sufficient men my expedition of discovery to the Indies.”[5][4]
• Perhaps there was some irony in his words. He would leave on his journey to “the Indies” within two days of the expulsion deadline on ships manned liberally by conversos, including his interpreter, Luis de Torres. Historians are divided over whether Columbus himself may have been a New Christian. Born in Italy, he moved with his family to Spain. Although there is some murkiness about his family history, he was apparently a member of the powerful Colon family of Ibiza, merchants who filled important political posts on the island and who were a branch of the Colons of Catalonia, part of the old Catalan-Aragonese confederation. The Colons owned many properties in Barcelona’s Call judio, the Jewish Quarter.[6][5][20]
August 2, 1542
On August 2nd, 1542, the same chief upon his own resignation, received from the king a charter of twenty merk lands of Meysnes (Mishnish) in Mull, and the twenty merklands of Strathredole in Skye, to be in free tenantry and sasine, taken at the principal messuage of Strathredole, to suffice for the whole lands. The distinction is to himself and the heirs male of his body, lawfully begotten, who failing, to his nearest and lawful male heirs whomsoever; by which heirs female and assignees seem to be excluded.[21]
1543
The Spanish version of the Bible by Francisco de Enzinas (1543) was based on Erasmus.[22]
1543: Martin Luther tried unsuccessfully to get the elector to expel (the Jews) from Brandenburg in 1543.[23]
1543:
Bookcover of ‘On the Jews and Their Lies.’
Published in 1543 by Martin Luther.[24]
In his pamphlet ‘On the Jews and Their Lies’ Martin Luther advocates an eight-point plan to get rid of the Jews as a distinct group either by religious conversion or by expulsion:
“…set fire to their synagogues or schools [25]
“…their houses also be razed and destroyed…”
“…their prayer books and Talmudic writings…be taken from them…,”
“…their rabbis be forbidden to teach henceforth on pain of loss of life and limb…”
“..safe-conduct on the highways be abolished completely for the Jews…”[26]
“…usury be prohibited to them, and that all cash and treasure of silver and gold be taken from them…” and “Such money should now be used in …the following [way]… Whenever a Jew is sincerely converted, he should be handed [certain amount]…”
“…young, strong Jews and Jewesses [should]… earn their bread in the sweat of their brow…”
“If we wish to wash our hands of the Jews’ blasphemy and not share in their guilt, we have to part company with them. They must be driven from our country” and “we must drive them out like mad dogs.” [27]

Brookfield, Massachusetts, is attacked by Wamanoag Indians, during King Philip’s War.[30]
1675-1676
In 1675-1676 King Philip and his Wampanoag tribe became the ostensible target of both Connecticut and Massachusetts, allegedly because of the Indians’ attacks upon several towns in Plymouth. However, the New Englanders really aimed at destroying the Narragansetts who, under the protection of Rhode Island and the Crown, controlled the lands around the bay bearing their name.[31]

August 2, 1765: Francis Preston (b. August 2, 1765 / d. May 26, 1835).[34]
August 2, 1770 : Met the Officers of the first Virga. Troops at Captn. Weedens wherc we dined & did not finish until abt. Sun set. Mrs. Washington & Patcy dind at Col. Lewis’s where we lodgd.[35]’[36]
No. 9.—CRAWFORD TO WASHINGTON. STEWART’S CROSSING,[37] August 2, 1771.
SIR:—I have done nothing with Colonel Croghan in regard to the land you want of him as yet, as I could see none of his land in his line now run that will answer, to be laid off as he wants it laid off. I have found some at about fifteen or sixteen miles distance from Fort Pitt, which is very good farming land, and as good meadow land as ally. The upland is level, or no more hilly than is necessary to make the ground dry. The tract is like Gist’s,[38] and full as good as his and as level, the draft of which I shall show you when I come down. I do not know whether Crosson will take this in his line or not. He is to have a tract laid off by his surveyor for you on Mingo creek, which is good land; but I do not know as yet what quantity there will be, as it is not done, but is to be done, and I am to bring, for your perusal, the draft when I come down. It is to be as large as the good land will admit of any how, in a square, which is the way he will have his land run out. I shall close no bargain with him till I see you, which will be as soon as I can possibly get my business done up the river; but I do not much like running any land in Tygart’s Valley, [39] as the people in general are very contentious there, for want of the law being properly established amongst them; but, if possible to be done, I will do it.
I have run out the different tracts of land described in your memorandum, between the Little Kanawha and the Big Kanawha; and that tract above the Captina, [40] or opposite to Pipe creek. [41]
It is not large. I have not made out the draft yet, nor shall I do so until I come down to your house. I saw a letter from Mr. Tilghman in regard to Colonel Croghan. He says the latter has no right to any land as yet, nor can not tell whether he ever will have any from the Crown. Croghan claims it from an Indian deed and is making out patents to such as will buy of him ; but Mr. Tilghman says in his letter: “.1 hope persons will ask themselves how they will come by their money again, if, in a few years, his title should be found not good.”
I am to view his land on Mingo creek again before I come down; and if it should not be his land, it may be you can make it your own hereafter. I have nothing material now, further, to let you know, that I can think of. I am, etc.
P. S.—Mingo creek empties into the Monongahela above the mouth of Youghiogheny, and the land is near the bead. It is a small creek.[42]
August 2nd, 1774: Received of Capt. Wm. Herrad Twenty Five Beeves for the use of the militia at Fort Fincastle
I say Recd. Wm. Crawford[43]
Wednesday, August 2nd, 1775.
Returned to V. Crawford’s. Intend to go to Fort Pitt the first opportunity. I am now getting strong and healthy.[44]

August 2, 1790: The United States conducts its first census. Out of a population of four million people, there are approximately 2,000 Jews.[46]
August 2, 1819: An anti-Semitic riot breaks out in the city of Wurzberg. It will be the first in string of such violent actions to plague the Jews of Germany[47]
August 2, 1829: The Smiths had the following children: Isabella Mary (born April 24, 1825, d. 1907) m. 1847 Cadogan Hodgson Cadogan (of Brinkburn Priory), Oswald Augustus (b. October 21, 1826, d. 1902) m. 1856 Rose Sophia Vansittart, Eric Carrington (b. May 25, 1828, d. 1906) m. 1849 Mary Maberly, Laura Charlotte (b. August 2, 1829) m. 1848 Col. Evan Maberly, Beilby (b. August 12, 1830, d. 1831), Frances Dora (July 29, 1832, d. 1922) m. 1853 Claude Bowes-Lyon 13th Earl of Strathmore, Marion Henrietta (b. February 25, 1835, d. 1897) m.1854 Lt-Col Henry Dorrien Streatfeild (of Chiddingstone Castle).[5][6]
In 1853 the Smiths' daughter Frances married Claude Bowes-Lyon, later Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne. She thus became the great-grandmother of Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, who was later Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, the mother of Queen Elizabeth II.[48]
August 2, 1832: U.S. soldiers nearly annihilated Black Hawk's band as it attempted to escape west across the Mississippi, and Black Hawk finally surrendered.
Casualties in the 15-week war were grossly one-sided. An estimated 70 settlers or soldiers lost their lives; estimates for the number of Indians killed are between 442 and 592. Black Hawk was captured and incarcerated for a time in Fortress Monroe, Virginia. In order to demonstrate the futility of further resistance to the powerful Americans, Black Hawk was taken on a tour of the major eastern cities before being relocated to an Iowa Indian agency. He lived the remaining six years of his life under the supervision of a Sauk chief who had once been his enemy. Unlike Black Hawk, the Sauk chief had cooperated with the United States government.[49]
August 2, 1862: Twenty-Fourth Infantry.
Corp. Elias Gabriel, enlisted August 2, 1862, wounded, discharged January 5, 1865, as sergt.
Blakely, Z., enlisted August 2, 1862, corp., died September 10, 1863. [50]

All the regiment went on picket in sight
Of Fredric city[51] 3 miles wrote a letter to wildcat grove[52]
August 2, 1865: Moved to Davenport, Iowa, July 20-August 2. [53]
August 2, 1865: Relatives and friends began arriving to greet the returned veterans. The men finally received their back pay on August 2, and the 24th Iowa was officially disbanded. Although the parting was one of melancholy, the return to their individual homes was not joyous for all. Captain Lucas was sobered by the new that his mother had died June 13, tearfully clutching his picture and saying that she would never see her Alexander.[54]
Rigby’s homecoming was more joyous. Cousins greeted him along the route with hugs and handshakes. His father met him on the road, and everyone seemed glad to see him, whether they knew him or not. True to his convictions, the Christian stalwart of the Temperance Regiment gathered with his loved ones around the family altar and returned thanks that God’s mercy had preserved them through a trying three years. Rigby closed his diary bgy writing;
:Father and Mother look older, and Ida is a large girl now. Grandmother is fast expiring for the tomb. Surly time is making his ravages, and is a guest where he is least wanted. I am at home again, a place to rest.[55]
August 2, 1890: Hallie Lynn Brown b August 2, 1890 at Valley Junction (West Des Moines, Ia.) d at Los Angeles, Calif, in early 1960's md ca 1920 at Los Angeles, Marion E. Woods b St. Johnsbury, Vt. d November 19, 1966 at Torrance, Calif. Both are buried at Gardena, Calif. [56]
August 2, 1934: The German President, Paul von Hindenburg, dies, leaving the way for Hitler to establish a dictatorship.[57]
August 2, 1939
Albert Einstein writes a letter to Roosevelt telling him that Hitler might be developing an extraordinary bomb, so powerful that it could destroy whole cities, in an instant. Roosevelt immediately set up a committee to speed up American atomic research. Physicists like Enrico Fermi had calculated that even a few pounds of an unstable element like Uranium could cause an explosion of a scale not seen before.[58]
August 2, 1940: A civilian administration under Gauleiter Gustav Simon is installed in Luxembourg.[59]
August 2, 1941: The Jews were ordered expelled from Hungarian Ruthiea.[60]
August 2, 1941: Over 200 Jews were shot in Kovno. (Lithuania)[61]
August 2, 1942: After twelve days, approximately 75,000 Jews had been deported to the death camp at Treblinka.[62]
• August 2, 1943: Led by a small group of prisoners using primitive weapons and pistols, inmates at Treblinka attacked the guards and burned down the barracks. Between 300 and 500 prisoners escaped although most of them were either captured or turned over by Polish peasants. Though the revolt did not stop all activities, the German government decided to liquidate the camp, which it did in October.[1] [63] Only 67 people are known to have survived the camp. The survivors became the only source of knowledge about Treblinka, because the Nazis all but destroyed it in a frantic bid to cover their tracks. Today there only 2 survivors from the Treblinka extermination camp where 875,000 were killed.[64]
August 2, 1943
PT-109
On August 2nd, 1943 the Patrol Torpedo boat skippered by future President John F. Kennedy was rammed and split in half by the Japanese destroyer Amagiri. The PT-109 sank within minutes taking two of its crew with it. The remaining 11 survivors grabbed what they could and began swimming the 3.5 miles to the deserted Plum Pudding Island - in the Pacific among the Solomon Islands. Two of the crew members were badly injured, Kennedy towing one to safety by taking the injured man’s life preserver strap in his teeth while swimming. The crew was rescued six days later after a coconut with the crew’s location carved into it was passed along to a Solomon local who passed it along to the US Navy. The coconut with its SOS message was preserved and adorned the JFK Oval Office as a paperweight.[65]

[35] Meeting a day later than scheduled, the olbeers and representatives officers who were present accepted William Crawford as surveyor for the veterans bounty lands and resolved that GW should make a journey to the Ohio Valley with Crawford and Dr. James Craik to locate the best areas for the surveys. It was also agreed that the costs involved would be divided proportionately among the officers according to their original ranks, the field ofhcers paying the most and the subalterns the least. GW was empowered to begin collecting the money immediately (minutes of the officers of the Virginia Regiment. ~ Mar. 1771. DLC~GW: Ledger A, 322).

[37] Stewart’s Crossing (frequently written in the plural) was so called from the circumstance of William Stewart having lived near the place in the year 1753 and part of 1754, when he was driven away by the French,. It was Crawford’s home, situated on what, at that (late, was known as Braddock’s road, the place on the Youghiogheny where Braddock crossed on hjs maich against Fort Duquesne (afterward Fort Pitt), in 1755. It was in Augusta county, Virginia, as claimed by that province; subsequently, in the district of West Augusta; and, finally, in Yoholiogania (not Youghiogheny) county, until 1779, when Virginia relinquished her claim to that section. As claimed by Pennsylvania, it was, at that date, in Bedford (formerly a part of Cumberland); afterward in Westmoreland; and, finally, in Fayette county—where the town of New Haven is now located, opposite Connellsville, forty-three miles from Pittsburgh.

[39] So called from David Tygart, who, with Robert Foyle, was the first occupant of West Virginia, west of the mountains; his settlement was the site of the present town of Beverly, Randolph county; it was destroyed by the savages in November, 1753.

[43] William Crawford was born about 1722, in Virginia whence he removed to the frontier in early manhood. He learned surveying from Washington, and in 1755 was an ensign of Virginia troops serving throughout the French and Indian War and thaqt of Pontiac (1763). In 1765 he removed to the Youghiogheny and was one of the earliest and most influential settlers, accompanying Washington down the Ohio in 1770. In Lord Dunmor’s War, he made three expeditions toward the Indian territory, in the second of which he built Fort Fincastle. He was major in Dunmore’s division, and commanded a side expedition which destroyed the Mingo towns. He was colonel of a Virginia regiment in the Revolution, and in 1782 led an expedition against the Wyandot at Sandusky, when he was captured, and tortured to death at the stake.

(Fredrick City) Events leading to the Civil War, and the war itself, touched Frederick deeply. It was here that the Maryland Legislature met when it was decided the state would not secede from the Union. The city was a natural crossroads for troop movements. Frederick residents were pressed many times to provide supplies for troops, and many families in the city as well as the state were divided in their loyalties. The Battle of the Monocacy south of town saved Washington from being taken by the Confederate Army. http://www.cityoffrederick.com/text%20only/about/about.htm
