August 8, 117 C.E.: Hadrian named Emperor of the Roman Empire. He is remembered as the man who accepted the limits of the Roman empire, as can be seen by the construction Hadrian’s Wall in what is today Great Britain. It was designed to keep the barbarians out of the empire and was viewed as the greatest engineering feat of the Roman legions. Hadrian was also seen as a man of culture who was a devotee of Greek learning. Jews remember him as the man who brought on Bar Kochba’s Rebellion. At the end of the extended but ultimately failed clash of arms. Hadrian made war on Judaism itself. He sought to build a temple to Jupiter on the Temple Mount. He hunted down the Jewish sages and created the list of martyrs some of whom we invoke by name each year on the High Holidays. In Jewish writings he referred to as “the Wicked or the Evil One.”[1]
August 8, 1541: The Jews of Great Poland were authorized by King Sigisnund to elect a chief Rabbi.[2]
August 8, 1570 - Peace of Saint-Germain-and-Laye, more freedom for huguenots[3]
August 8, 1585 - Pope Sixtus excommunicates Hendrik van Navarra (Henri IV) [4]
August 8, 1585 - John Davis enters Cumberland Sound in search of the Northwest Passage. [5]
August 8, 1570: — The peace of St. Germain, between
Charles IX and the heads of the Protestant party.
The same day, Felton, a Catholic gentleman, con-
victed of having circulated copies of the Pope's bull
against Elizabeth, is executed at London. [6]
August 8, 1588: In the war between England and Spain, the Battle of Gravelines comes to an ends. Conventional commentators see it as a turning point in history because it marked the end of the Spanish Armada’s attempt to invade England. Any defeat suffered by Spain, the land of the Enquisition had to be seen as a plus from the Jewish point of view. More specifically, the end of the Battle of Gravelines meant that the Spanish Armada could not support the landing of Spanish troops in the Netherlands. Part of the mission of the Armada was to provide support for Spanish forces fighting to impose Catholic rule on the Protestant Dutch. The Spanish were determined to bring the Inquisition to the Netherlands to punish the heresy of the Protenstants and would of course have doomed the future of the Sephardic Jews who had already settled in Holland or would be settling there. If the Spanish had been successful at Gravelines, the 23 Jews who whould sail into New Amsterdeam would have found a Catholic government that would havew not provided them aid, shelter and a New World in which to settle. It is not too great a stretch to say that a line can be drawn from Drake’s vitory over the Armada at Gravelines to the founding of the Jewish Community in America. As we have said many times in our studies in Cedar Rapids, you must understand history to understand Jewish history and seeing history through the Jewish primism is not the same as seeing history in its general form.[7]
August 8, 1654: The first Jew sailed for New Amsterdam from Holland aboard the Peartree and landed on August 22. Jacob Barsimson was considered the first Jewish immigrant. Other dates have been given for this sailing. Regardless, the official date of the start of the Jewish community comes later in 1654 when 23 Portuguese Jews landed in New Amsterdam.[3]
August 8, 1655
The Russians captured Vilna. As part of the peace settlement between Chmielnicki and Czar Alexis, the east band of the Dnieper became part of the kingdom of Moscow. Jews were once again subject to expulsion and murder. [6][8]

He also requested permission for "raising a Company or two of Men in yr Ldp's Governt by which we hope the Virginians will be reinforced enough to take the Field again before Winter."
August 8, 1775, Cresswell very uneasy to wait doing nothing. Am afraid I shall be too late to return home this fall, went with Miss Crawford and Miss Grimes to John Mintor’s place.[12] When we came to a small Creek we had to cross the girls tucked up their petticoats above their knees and forded it with the greatest indifference. Nothing unusual here, tho’ these are the first people in the country.[13]

A skirmish between George Rogers Clark and the Shawnee at Old Chillicothe near the Mad River results in the loss of the Shawnee corn crop. The Shawnee will turn to the British in Detroit for relief.[14]
George Rogers Clark, for whom the Ohio county is named, led a band of Kentuckians, including Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton, into this territory and defeated the Shawnee Indians, at the battle of Piqua on August 8, 1780. One of the tribe was a boy of twelve namedTecumseh who later became a famous Shawnee leader dedicated to fighting white settlers. Born in Clark County, emissary to all the Indians of the Northwestern and Southwesternterritories, Tecumseh opposed westward migration in the early 19th century. He led unremitting warfare against white settlementin his land.[15]
On August 8, 1780 Clark marched against Old Chillicothe (in Greene County), but found the village abandoned and burned. They destroyed several hundred acres of corn and then proceeded in a north direction for the purpose of attacking Old Piqua, the Shawnee town on Mad River (in Clark County). Reaching that point the fight began at 2 P. M., and after a three hours' engagement the Indians were driven from their village, each side losing about twenty men. Upon the following day, the town was burned and the growing crops completely destroyed. This severe thrashing taught the Indians a lesson not soon to be forgotten, and for the time cowed them into submission. There were nearly 4,000 persons in the tribe at this point, and the destruction of their crops caused them much suffering, having to depend entirely upon the chase for provision to keep them through the following winter. The Shawnees crossed over the Great Miami into what is now Miami County, and built another town which they also called Piqua.[16]

More about this marker. This historical marker was erected here as part of the work of the Ohio Revolutionary Memorial Commission. This commission was formed with the intent to commemorate in 1930, the sesquicentennial anniversary of the Revolutionary War era, Battle of Piqua, which was fought in 1780. In addition to erecting this historical monument (in 1953), the Ohio Revolutionary Memorial Commission was also responsible for the creation of the George Rogers Clark Historical Park, holding a sesquicentennial reenactment of the battle, and creating Ohio’s portion of a tri-state (Kentucky, Ohio, and Michigan) roadway system of historical trails, entitled the Ohio Revolutionary Memorial Trails (see related link #4).
Regarding Battle of Piqua. In the document, “Chronology of history of George Rogers Clark Park” (see related link #5), it states that in 1929: “Governor Donohay appoints members of the George Rogers Clark Memorial Commission, formed statewide consisting of many local and state dignitaries. They are to investigate possibilities of commemorating the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Picawey and the Northwest Ordinance. Their recommendations include:
1. The creation of an Ohio Revolutionary Memorial at the site with a tri-state trail system (see related

link #4).
2. A major State park at the site of the Battle:
“… that the site of the Battle of Piqua be acquired by the State as a permanent park, and that a permanent building be erected, preferably a replica of the pioneer type of fort, one such having stood upon this battlefield as a defense for the Indian town of Piqua… and that there be prepared therein, or in another structure adjacent, a museum pertaining to Indian, frontier and pioneer days.”
Later in 1929: “The Ohio Revolutionary Memorial Commission is formed,” appointed pursuant to the Act of the General Assembly, passed April 6, 1929, and approved by Governor Myers T Cooper, April 25, 1929, and filed with the Secretary of State April 26, 1929 (Amended State Bill Number 91 by Senator M. S. Kuhns) entitled 'An Act to provide for the creation of an Ohio Revolutionary Memorial Commission; defining its powers and duties and making an appropriation for the work of the Commission.' "
Then, for 1930, the document states: “Land is purchased by the Revolutionary Commission from Wylie E. Potts (the net amount of land being 201.205 acres) with the State paying the purchase price of $21,126.52, thus creating George Rogers Clark Memorial Park…."
So it was this Ohio Revolutionary Memorial Commission that was responsible for the creation of George Rogers Clark Historical

Inscription. In June of 1780 British and Indian forces seized Ruddle's and Martin's Stations in Kentucky. On August 8, 1780 George Rogers Clark led a force of nearly 1000 Kentucky militia under authority of Virginia to engage the British led Shawnee at the Village of Peckuwe approximately 6 miles west of here where George Rogers Clark Park now exists. This was the largest Revolutionary War Battle fought west of the Allegheny Mountains and helped to diminish the British influence in the west.
Sculptor Mike Major has captured this youthful leader as he may have looked addressing his troops before the campaign had begun.

August 8, 1782: Ante, pp. 123, 175, 303.
The following is a copy of the proceedings:
“At a meeting of the field officers and other respectable inhabitants of the county of Westmoreland at the house of Colonel Edward Cook, on Thursday, the eighth day of August, (August 8) 1782, to consult on a plan for an expedition against the Sandusky Indian nations bordering on our frontier,— Colonel Christopher Hays, Esq., Colonel Alexander McClean, Colonel Benjamin Harrison, Captain Hezekiah MeGruder, and Charles Foreman, Esq., were appointed a cornittee to form a plan for that purpose.
“1st. Resolved, That each battalion of the militia of Westmoreland county shall furnish their quota of men, provisions and horses, equipped at Catfish Camp [now Washington, Washington county] the 15th instant. It is thought we cannot complete our plan before the 20th instant, so as to make returns.1
August 8, 1787
August 8th 1787. Present John Moore, Esq., Hannah Crawford, Execureix and Colonel John Stephenson, Executor, of the Last Will and Testament of Colonel William Crawford, dec’d having exhibited their .- accounts of the Orphan Court. It appears that the whole amount of the
said estate is one thousand six hundred and sixty pounds six shillings and four pence. The disbursement of the said executors is 1400 and 9 pounds, 8 shillings and 8 pence, and that there is a balance in the hands of the said executors of 200 and 45 pounds, 7 shillings and 8 pence, while after deducting 12 shillings, the expense the court, is to be distributed as the will of the said Testator directs.[20]
August 8, 1801: When James Finley had reached Kane Ridge on August 8, the Revival had been underway for two days. As many as 20,000 people had gathered there.
The preachers are towering over you in preaching stands. They are preaching day and night and everything is announced with trumpets blowing. Finley sees these people shrieking and screaming, and shrieking, shouting, and singing. People are rolling on the ground, fainting, weeping, At one moment a preacher looks at him right in the eyes and he finds his knees ready to give out.
“I cry for mercy and salvation. My sins crowd around me like so many demons of darkness. My disobedience to God, my backslidings rise before me and it seems to me that hell is just at hand and that soon I must plunge into its dismal abode.”
Finley stops and says, “We are going to have to change our lives or we are going straight to hell.” He weeps, shouts out and he is converted.
“The direct witness from heaven shines full upon my soul. And their flows such copious streams of love that I think I should die. Excessive joy.”
Christian conversion offered a very powerful promise of fundamental change that you could be a certain kind of person on Wednesday, And you could go to a revival on Thursday morning and by thursday afternoon you could be a new creature.
News of the Kane Ridge revival and others like it spread across America. Over the next two decades there would be thousands more. A wave of revivals swept through South Carolina, Tennessee and Georgia. The Middle atlantic, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, hosted annual camp meetings that were wild with enthusiasm. And revivals burned across New York and New England.
Americas thirst for a true religious experience spawned dozens of denominations. Baptists and Methodists flourished. Individuals seeking a different message found a home in Freewill Baptists, Anti-Mission Baptists, Disciples of Christ, Universalists, and Joseph Smith’s Latter Day Saints. Even the older faiths, the Presbyterians, Congregational, and Anglican Churches became more Evangelical in response to the Competition they faced. Not just from new faiths but a new kind of preacher.

• August 8, 1925: In the last half of the twenties, Hiram W. Evans and the men who ran the Klan tried in various ways to keep the order afloat. In the fall of 1925 Evans announced that the Klan was moving its main offices from Atlanta to Washington, D. C., where the organization supposedly could carry out its new “educational” program in a more effective fashion. [30] On August 8, 1925 in one of their largest rallies ever, 40,000 Klu Klux Klan paraded down Pennsylvania avenue in Washington D.C.[31]
1925: The Ku Klux Klan was a presence at times in the Dubuque area. In the 1920s, at the height of its power, Klan influence became visible in the area. Several crosses were burned in the area over an 18 month time period. One Klan meeting near the Center Grove section of the city degenerated into a huge fight when anti-klan demonstrators attacked Klan members. In 1925, the Klan held a gathering which they called a "Konklave." The Klan claimed over 50,000 people attended the rally. The Klan held another "Konklave" as well as a parade.
The influence of the Klan soon began to weaken. National scandals and power struggles weakened the Klan, which was mirrored locally. The Klan had pretty much disappeared from the public view for a number of years.
Most recently, during the 1990s, there was a brief resurgence of the Klan's presence in Dubuque. Appropriate actions were taken and the Klan's presence has since disappeared.[32]
August 8, 1938: The Nazis opened the Mauthausen-Gusen Concentration camp.[33]
It occurred to me immediately after we discoved our Cohen DNA that if my ancestry was Jewish and we came to America from Germany around the time of the American Revolution, that there probably would have been ancestors who remained and that their descendants could still be around. Then I thought, “After the holocaust, is it possible that any descendants could have survived?”
August 8, 1942: At a meeting in Vichy, Premier Laval informs the cabinet that “the problem of the children has been settled; the children will be returned to their families [34]between August 8 and 12.” The statement is made on the day when, for the first time, regular French police at the Pithiviers camp separate 150 Jewish mothers from their children age 2 and 15 and deport the mothers.[35]
August 8, 1942 1942: All 2,000 Jews of Szczebrzeszyn refused to gather for a deportation round up. The Germans commenced a search for them. Only 400 were found. They were all killed.. [36]
August 8, 1942 : In Geneva, Gerhart Riegner cables Rabbi Stephen S. Wise in New York and Sidney Silverman in London about Nazi plans for the extermination of European Jewry. The United States Department of State holds up delivery of the message to Wise, who finally receive it from Silverman on August 28.[37]
August 8, 1942 : Twenty-five hundred Jews of Novogrudok are killed.[38]
August 8, 1944: 1944: After a kangaroo trial in Berlin that was overseen by Goebbels, Hitler hung several of the German officers and other conspirators who tried to kill him. They are hung on meat hooks with chicken wire around their necks. The butchery is filmed and sent to Hitler for review. Over the following months many more conspirators would be sent to trial. [39]
August 8, 1945: Even more dramatic was the effect of cloud cover on Kokura. On August 8, the second nuclear weapon was loaded into a B-29 called Bock's Car. But the skies were overcast over the primary target, Kokura. Instead, the bomb was to be released over the backup target: Nagasaki.[40]
August 8, 1988
The first night baseball game at Wrigley field in Chicago is played, and called after four innings because of rain. The next night, August 9, 1988 the first complete game is played and the Goodlove’s are there.[41]

August 8, 2009: Michael F. Hammer, Doron M. Behar, Tatiana M. Karafet1, Fernando L. Mendez, Brian Hallmark, Tamar Erez, Lev A. Zhivotovsky, Saharon Rosset, and Karl Skorecki. "Extended Y chromosome haplotypes resolve multiple and unique lineages of the Jewish priesthood." Human Genetics 126:5 (November 2009): 707-717. Also electronically published on August 8, 2009. Abstract:
"It has been known for over a decade that a majority of men who self report as members of the Jewish priesthood (Cohanim) carry a characteristic Y chromosome haplotype termed the Cohen Modal Haplotype (CMH). The CMH has since been used to trace putative Jewish ancestral origins of various populations. However, the limited number of binary and STR Y chromosome markers used previously did not provide the phylogenetic resolution needed to infer the number of independent paternal lineages that are encompassed within the Cohanim or their coalescence times. Accordingly, we have genotyped 75 binary markers and 12 Y-STRs in a sample of 215 Cohanim from diverse Jewish communities, 1,575 Jewish men from across the range of the Jewish Diaspora, and 2,099 non-Jewish men from the Near East, Europe, Central Asia, and India. While Cohanim from diverse backgrounds carry a total of 21 Y chromosome haplogroups, 5 haplogroups account for 79.5% of Cohanim Y chromosomes. The most frequent Cohanim lineage (46.1%) is marked by the recently reported P58 T–>C mutation, which is prevalent in the Near East. Based on genotypes at 12 Y-STRs, we identify an extended CMH on the J-P58* background that predominates in both Ashkenazi and non-Ashkenazi Cohanim and is remarkably absent in non-Jews. The estimated divergence time of this lineage based on 17 STRs is 3,190 ± 1,090 years. Notably, the second most frequent Cohanim lineage (J-M410*, 14.4%) contains an extended modal haplotype that is also limited to Ashkenazi and non-Ashkenazi Cohanim and is estimated to be 4.2 ± 1.3 ky old. These results support the hypothesis of a common origin of the CMH in the Near East well before the dispersion of the Jewish people into separate communities, and indicate that the majority of contemporary Jewish priests descend from a limited number of paternal lineages."
