September 4, 476: The German general Odoacer defeated Orestes and deposed the child emperor Romulus Augustus marking the “official end of the Roman Empire.” Actually this was the end of the Empire in the West. The Eastern Empire continued to rule. Although this is the official date, the imperial system had already effectively ended in the West. The anarchy that immediately preceded and followed the so-called Fall of the Roman Empire was not good for any segment of the population. – Jew and gentile alike. But as is so often the case the effects of anarchy and lawlessness fell heavier on the Jews than on their neighbors. The last decades of the Roman Empire were a period of unrest and uncertainty for the Jewish people living in Palestine and Europe. The adoption of Christianity as the religion of the empire led to a variety of discriminatory practices aimed at the Jews. On the other hand, the Jerusalem Talmud was completed in the first half of the fifth century. The real of seat of learning and Jewish culture had moved to Babylonia where scholars and sages would continue to develop traditions and commentaries including the Babylonian Talmud.[1]
September 4, 929: In 929, with the help of Arnulf of Bavaria, Henry entered Bohemia and forced Duke Wenceslaus I to resume the yearly payment of tribute to the king. Meanwhile, the Slavic Redarii had driven away their chief, captured the town of Walsleben, and massacred the inhabitants. Counts Bernard and Thietmar marched against the fortress of Lenzen beyond the Elbe, and, after fierce fighting, completely routed the enemy on September 4, 929. The Lusatians and the Ukrani on the lower Oder were subdued and made tributary in 932 and 934, respectively.[4] However, Henry left no consistent march administration, which was implemented by his successor Otto I.
In 932 Henry finally refused to pay the regular tribute to the Magyars. When they began raiding again, he led a unified army of all German duchies to victory at the Battle of Riade in 933 near the river Unstrut, thus stopping the Magyar advance into Germany. He also pacified territories to the north, where the Danes had been harrying the Frisians by sea. The monk and chronicler Widukind of Corvey in his Res gestae Saxonicae reports that the Danes were subjects of Henry the Fowler. Henry incorporated into his kingdom territories held by the Wends, who together with the Danes had attacked Germany, and also conquered Schleswig in 934.[citation needed] [2]
September 4, 1554: Cornelio da Montalcino, a Franciscan Friar who converted to Judaism, is burned alive in Rome.[3]

Henry VIII was the father of three children by three children by three different wives. His first wife Catherine of Aragon was the mother of Mary, while his second wife, Anne Boleyn, was the mother of Elizabeth. Finally, Henry’s third wife, Jane Seymour, gave him the son who would be heir to the throne. When Henry VIII died in 1547, Edward became king at the age of nine. Protestantism again flourished during Edward VI’s brief six year reign, and the open Bible came once again into favor. But when he died of tuberculosis at the age of 15, an intense, short period of turmoil ensued. Protestants and Roman Catholics vied to place their candidate on the vacated throne. Protestants ignored Henry VIII’s two daughters, Mary and Elizabeth, and chose to crown Lady Jane Grey, a niece of Henry, as the new queen. After reigning only nine days, she was arrested and beheaded by Catholic supporters of Mary who arose as an army and seized the throne for their chosen candidate.[5]

September 4, 1774: The situation at Russell's fort, at Castle's Woods, was also so serious that the people there were crying for help. Captain Dan Smith, on the 4th, of September (September 4), wrote to Colonel William Preston, saying: "The late Invasions of the Indians hath so much alarmed the Inhabitants of this River that without more men come to their assistance from other parts, some of the most timorous among us will remove to a place of Safety, and when once the example is set I fear it will be followed by many. By what I can learn the terror is as great on Holston, so that we've no room to hope for assistance from that quarter. I am just going to the assistance of the Castle's Woods men with what force could be spared from this upper district." At the foot of the letter, Captain Smith made a list of the men he was taking with him to assist the alarmed garrison at Castle's Woods. They were:
Vincent Hobbs Wm. McAdoo
Thos. Shannon John Mares (Marrs)
Robert Brown Joseph Mares (Marrs)
Saul Cecil David Pattorn (Patton)
John Smith Israel Harmon
Wm. Baylstone Thos. Maxwell
Holton Money (Mooney) Joseph Turner
Saml. Money (Mooney) Wm. Magee
From an inspection of the above list it seems that the inhabitants of the headwaters of the Clinch and Bluestone were taking pretty good care of themselves, and were willing and able to help protect their more "timorous" neighbors lower down on the Clinch. Nearly every man on this roll was from the Upper Clinch section, now in Tazewell County, and a number of the names are still represented in the county—among them Marrs, Brown, Cecil, Patton, Maxwell, Shannon and Harman. Three months previous to using the Tazewell men for relief of the garrison at Castle's Woods, Captain Smith had written Colonel Preston, preferring charges against Thomas Maxwell and Israel Harmon for neglect of duty as scouts at the head of Sandy Creek. He accused them of cowardice, because they were removing their families from the head of the north fork of Clinch and Bluestone and taking them to places of safety; and Smith was asking that Thomas Maxwell be court-martialed. Captain Smith, evidently, had found that he had made a grievous mistake as to the courage of Maxwell and Harmon; and was trying to make amends for the wrong he had done them, by selecting them to become protectors of the "timorous" inhabitants living in his own section of the Clinch Valley.
September 4, 1776: The commissioners of accounts at the treasury report,
That there is due to the administrators of Samuel Allen, deceased, for hire of his waggon and team from the September 4, to the December 4, 1776, is 92 days, at 22/3 dollars, 245 30/90 dollars; and for the four horses, waggon, geers and cloth, which by certificates, appear to have been detained in the service after his decease, and never returned to his heirs, &c. appraised at 408 dollars, which last sum is to be charged to the account of the quarter master general; also for expences incurred on York Island, as by account and certificate, 7 62/90 dollars, amounting in the whole to 661 2/90 dollars:
That there is due to John Campbell, the sum of 1,243 30/90 dollars, for Colonel George Morgan's order on the President of Congress, in favour of Colonel William Crawford, being for provisions stored at Fort Pitt, which order is assigned over to said Campbell; the said Colonel George Morgan to be accountable:
That there is due to Simon and Campbell, the sum of 302 dollars, for arms sold to Colonel William, Crawford, for the use of the 13 Virginia regiment, as per Colonel Crawford's order on the Treasury Board: the said Colonel Crawford to be accountable:[15]
September 4, 1776: Brigadier-General Richard Prescott had been captured November 17, 1775, and exchanged September 4, 1776, for General Sullivan.
General Prescott was again captured near Newport, Rhode Island, July
10, 1777, and exchanged April 21, 1778, for Major-General Charles Lee. [16]
September 4, 1780: The records of the County Court for Ohio County, Virginia,
have also been published in full, from their beginning on January
6, 1777, to September 4, 1780, by which time the last Virginia Court
for Yohogania County had been held. The facts disclosed by these
records of the Ohio County Court are intensely interesting, for,
during the period referred to, the people of that county, living
along the Ohio River, were on the frontier line between our
pioneer settlements and savagery beyond that river. [17]
September 4, 1803: (Lewis) Morning foggy, obliged to wait. Thermometer at 63°— temperature of the river-water 73° being a difference of ten degrees, but yesterday there was a difference of twelve degrees, so that the water must have changed it's temperature 2d in twenty four hours, coalder; at ¼ past 8 the murcury rose in the open air to 68° the fogg dispeared and we set out; the difference therefore of 5° in temperature between the warter and air is not sufficient to produce the appearance of fogg— from the watermark we fixed last evening it appeared that the river during the night had fallen an inch perpendicularly.— the Perogue [1][18] was loaded as his been my practice since I left Pittsburgh, in order as much as posseble to lighten the boat, the [man or men] who conducted her called as in distress about an hour after we had got under way, we came too and waaited her coming up found she had sprung a leek and had nearly filled; this accedent was truly distressing, as her load consisting of articles of hard-ware, intended as presents to the Indians got wet and I fear are much damaged; proceeded about three miles further got fast on a bar below georgetown, and with the assistance of some of the neighboring people got overe it with much difficulty; at Georgetown [2][19] purchased a canoe compleat with two paddles and two poles for which I gave 11$, found that my new purchase leaked so much that she was unsafe woithout some repairs; came too about a mile below the riffle on the east shore [3][20] pretty early in the evening where we stayed all night having made 〈only〉 about thirteen miles this day. opened the articles which had got wet and exposed them to the sun; set some of my hands to repareing the canoes which I effected before night had the articles well oiled and put up in oilcloth baggs and returned to the casks in which they were previously were, hired another hand to go with me as far as Wheeling— the articles were not as much injured as I had supposed— [4][21]
about two miles above my camp passed the line, which divides the States of Virginia [5][22] and Pensylvania on the east side of the river and on the West that of Pensylvania from the State of Ohio; this line is made vi[si]ble from the timber having been felled about sixty feet in width, the young timber has spring up but has not yet attained the hight of the other that it can with ease be traced with the eye a considirable distance— it passes the Ohio River at the mouth of mill Creek [6][23] The water is so low and clear that we see a great number of Fish of different kinds, the Stergeon, Bass, Cat fish, pike, [7][24] &c. we fixed some spears after the indian method but have had too much to attend to of more importance than gigging fish.— [25]

Kalisz, Poland. Photos by Andre Goodfriend, DNA Match
There used to be quite a few people with variants of the name Goodfriend (i.e. Gutfrajnd, Gutfreund, Gutfraynd, etc.) in the area around Kalisz, Poland as well in parts of Hungary and Austria. My current guess is that they were part of the wave of Jews who had gone from Judea to Southern France when they were exiled by the Romans in 117AD.
• Re: Mark Andre Goodfriend (Y67) DNA Match Inquiry [38]
In 1264 a General Charter of Jewish Liberties was enacted in the city or Kalisz. So, during the 13th century, following the enactment of the Charter, a large number of Yiddish-speaking Jew fled persecution in the West and settled in Poland. I'm guessing that, because of the large number of Gutfrajnds clustered around Kalisz, that they were part of the group that settled in Poland at about that time.
Re: Mark Andre Goodfriend (Y67) DNA Match Inquiry [39]
My relatives would have been living their lives peacefully there for the next 650 years or so -- although their region of Poland switched hands a few times, going first to Prussia (1793), then briefly independent under Napoleon (1807-1815) and then to Russia (1815 - 1918). It may be that your ancestor saw how the situation was deteriorating in the region in the late 18th century and left for America.

The rest were immediately gassed.
Some thirty men are known to have survived in 1945. This survival rate, high relative to the other convoys, is explained by the selections before arrival in Auschwitz.[44]

Dr. Robert Levy, arrested on May 12, 1943, in Limoges and deported from Drancy on September 2, 1943, gave the following account:
“We expected to work very hard in the factories, in the coal mines in the quarries, but we did not think our annihilation had been decided upon and was going to be perpetrated for the most part, in cold blood… After a 60 hour horrible trip, our convoy, which left Drancy September 2, 1943, came to a halt. Shouting, the SS opened the padlocked cars filled with their pitiful. Cargo of frightened old men, women scared to death, crying children and exhausted men. But all those people were glad to arrive at their destination, to breathe the pure air after the contaminated stench of the freight cars, to stretch their legs and arms which had been bent by the atrocious and uncomfortable trip. This is the selection: women, children, those ovber 50, the sick, are placed on the right. The women who do not want to be separated from their husbands weep. The mothers accompanied by little children are happy, for they are not separated…”[48]

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Samuel Colwell Vance (1770-1830), the son of David Vance, was born in Pennsylvania. He moved to Cincinnati,
Ohio, at an undetermined date and worked as a surveyor. In 1802, he married Mary Morris Lawrence (1783-1823)
(See also: SC 1235, Catherine Lawrence Randolph Letters), the granddaughter of Gen. Arthur St. Clair (1734-1818)
(See also: M 211, A.G. Mitten Collection; M 98, W.H. English Collection). In April of that year, he began laying out
the city of Lawrenceburg, Indiana (Dearborn Co.), which he named after his wife.
A year later, he was appointed Clerk of the Courts for Dearborn County by Gov. William Henry Harrison. According
to Indiana and Indianans (Vol. I, p. 262-263), Vance was the brother-in-law of Harrison, but the relationship could not
be verified in any other sources.
He was one of the directors of the Indiana Canal Company when it was chartered in 1805. Vance served as a soldier under Anthony Wayne (1745-1796) (See also: card catalog under the heading: Wayne, Anthony) and also fought in
the War of 1812. He made Lawrenceburg his permanent home in 1818.
(Some sources confuse Samuel Colwell Vance with Samuel Corville Vance (1762-1843) of Fayette County, Indiana.)

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
This collection consists of a letter, dated February 2, 1802, from C. Swan (?) to Capt. Samuel Vance. The letter was
written from "Washington," which was probably Washington D.C. In it, Swan discusses a measure to divide "the
Western Country into three states," which was defeated by Congress. He mentions a person named Worthington, who
opposed the measure. Swan states that the gentleman was "inimical to [Vance's] present governor," Arthur St. Clair,
who was also related to Vance.

[18] 1. The French word pirogue was used in the fur trade for a large dugout canoe or open boat. McDermott (GMVF), 118–19; Russell (FTT), 47. It is not clear if this vessel was actually a pirogue, as Lewis seems to have used the terms pirogue and canoe interchangeably. If it actually was a pirogue, it may have been either the red or the white pirogue so-called that figured prominently during the expedition. In this entry Lewis also mentions purchasing a canoe at Georgetown and then speaks of two canoes (as he does the next day, September 5), but this is probably two vessels in addition to the keelboat and not two canoes in addition to the keelboat and pirogue. Again the confusion of terminology. One more vessel was purchased at Wheeling on September 8, and Lewis calls it a pirogue. Lewis's correspondence during this period is of little help in sorting this out.
[19] 2. Georgetown, in western Beaver County, Pennsylvania, near the state line, was founded in 1793 by Benoni Dawson. Thwaites (EWT), 4:101 and n. 59. (Return to text.)
[20] 3. In Hancock County, West Virginia, about two miles below the state line.
[21] 4. Lewis may have intended a new entry on the next line; "September" is crossed out.
[22] 5. Present West Virginia was part of Virginia until 1863.
[23] 6. Mill Creek flows into the Ohio from the south on the Pennsylvania–West Virginia border, opposite Little Beaver Creek. Cramer (6th), 44.
[24] 7. The first fish is perhaps the shovelnose sturgeon, Scaphirhynchus platorynchus; the bass could be the smallmouth, Micropterus dolomieui, or the largemouth, M. salmoides; the northern pike is Esox lucius; the catfish could be the channel cat, Ictalurus punctatus, or the blue, I. furcatus. Lee et al., 44, 605, 608, 133, 446, 439.
