FORT YOUNG. WM CRAWFORD
Octobr I0 1757 GE0: SPEAKE
October 10th, 1770:GW.—Having purchased two horses, and recovered another which had been gone from me near three years, I despatched my boy Silas (Giles?) with my two riding horses home, I proceeded on my journey, arriving at one Wise’s (Mr. Turner’s) mill, about twenty-two miles ; it being reckoned seven to the place where Cox’s fort formerly stood, ten to one Parker’s, and five afterwards.
October 10, 1771: GW: At home all day. Captn. Crawford came here in the Afternoon.
October 10, 1772.— Fort Pitt abandoned by the British.
October 10, 1774:
On the morning of October 10, before Lewis began crossing the Ohio, he and his 1,100 men were surprised when about 1100 warriors under Chief Cornstalk (not including Logan) attacked them. The Battle of Point Pleasant, as it came to be called, raged nearly all day and descended into hand-to-hand combat. Despite heavy losses, Lewis' army emerged victorious, and the Indians retreated across the Ohio.
Dunmore and Lewis advanced from their respective points into Ohio towards the Shawnee towns on the Scioto, where they erected the temporary Camp Charlotte on Sippo Creek -- John Houseman served under Captain Daniel Morgan here; this Frederick county, VA company served for 164 days, including time at Camp Charlotte; it is unknown if they also served in the Battle of Point Pleasant. Dunmore, perhaps with Lewis, met with Cornstalk to begin peace negotiations. According to tradition, Chief Logan refused to attend the negotiations, although some accounts say he promised to cease fighting.
(October 10th, 1774: ), before Gen. Lewis had commenced his movement across the Ohio, he was attacked by a heavy body of Shawanese warriors under the chief Cornstalk. The fight (known as the battle of Point Pleasant) raged nearly all day, and resulted in the complete rout of the Indians, who sustained a very heavy (though not definitely ascertained) loss, and retreated in disorder across the Ohio. The loss of the Virginians under Lewis was seventy-five killed and one hundred and forty wounded. Dunmore and Lewis advanced from their respective points into Ohio to "Camp Charlotte," on Sippo Creek, where they met Cornstalk and the other Shawanese chiefs, but as the men of Lewis' command were inclined to show great vindictiveness towards the Indians, Dunmore, fearing an outbreak from them, which would defeat the object he had in view (the making of a treaty of peace with the chiefs), ordered Lewis to return immediately with his force to Point Pleasant. After their departure a treaty was finally concluded with the principal chiefs; but as some of the Indians were defiant and disinclined for peace, Maj. William Crawford was sent against one of their villages, called Seekunk, or Salt Lick Town. His force consisted of two hundred and forty men, with which he destroyed the village, killed six Indians, and took fourteen prisoners.
These operations and the submission of the Indians at Camp Charlotte virtually closed the war. Governor Dunmore immediately set on his return, and proceeded by way of Redstone and the Great Crossings of the Youghiogheny to Fort Cumberland, and thence to the Virginia capital.
They had gotten up before daylight the morning of October 10th, and had started up the river on a hunting or scouting expedition. After going about a mile from the camp they came suddenly upon Cornstalk's warriors, who were already moving towards the encampment of their white foes. The Indians fired at the two men and Hickman was killed, the fatal shot being fired by Tavenor Ross, a white renegade. Mooney ran swiftly back to camp and gave the alarm, reporting that he had seen enough Indians to cover five acres of ground, and that his companion, Hickman, had been killed by the red men. Thwaites and other historians have stated that the two men who discovered Cornstalk's army were members of Captain Shelby's company; and Thwaites says that the man who was killed was James Hughey. A man with that name does appear upon the roll of Captain Shelby's company; but Thwaites is contradicted by Colonel William Fleming, who, in his account of the battle, says positively that the two men belonged to Captain Russell's company. And Fleming is supported by Isaac Shelby, son of Captain Evan Shelby, and lieutenant of his father's company.
On October 10, 1774, Colonel Andrew Lewis and approximately 800 men defeated 1,200 Indian warriors led by Shawnee Chief Cornstalk at the Battle of Point Pleasant, ending Lord Dunmore's War.

"Chief Cornstalk. In this monument rests the remains of Keigh-tugh-qua, better known as Cornstalk to the early settlers and frontiersman. Chief Cormstalk was well known and respected by the white settlers and Indian tribes on the Ohio Valley. As chief of the Shawnees and head of the Northwestern Confederated Tribes, Cornstalk decided to make peace with the white man. However, he was forced to lead the attack on the "Long Knives" at the Battle of Point Pleasant on October 10, 1774. Although he survived the battle, he died just three years later."
October 10, 1774
From MS. journals and letter in possession of the Wisconsin Historical Society, it appears that the conduct of the battle was as follows: Andrew Lewis, who as yet thought the enemy to be but a scouting party, and not an army equal in size to his own, had the drums beat to arms, for many of his men were asleep in their tents; and while still smoking his pipe, ordered a detafhment from eash of the Augusta companies, to form 150 strong under Col. Charles Lewis, with John Dickinson, Benjamin Harrison, and John Skidmore as the captains. Another party of like size was formed under Col. Fleming, with Captains Shelby, Russell, Buford, and Philip Love. Lewis’s party marched to the right, near the foot of the hills skirting the east side of Crooked Creek. Fleming’s party marched to the left, 200 yards apart from the other. A quarter of a mile from camp, and half a mile from the point of the cape, the right-going party met the enemy lurking behind trees and fallen logs at the base of the hill, and there Charles Lewis was mortally wounded. Fleming marched to a pond three-quarters of a mile from camp, and fifty rods inland from the Ohio. This pond beng one of the sources of Crooked Creek. The hostile line was found to extend from this pond along Crooked Creek, half way to its mouth. The Indians, under Cornstalk, thought by rushes to drive the whites into the two rivers, “like so many bullocks,” as the chief later explained; and indeed both lines had frequently to fall back, but they were skillfully reinforced each time, and by dusk the savages placed Old Town Creek between them and the whites. This movement was hastened, a half hour before sunset, by a movement which Withers confounds with the main tactis. Captains Matthews, Arbuckle, Shelby, and Stuart were sent with a detachment up Crooked creek under cover of the bank, with a view to securing a rigge in the rear of the enemy, from which their line could be enfiladed. They were discovered in the act, but Cornstalk supposed that this party was Christion’s advance, and in alarm hurried his people to the other side of Old Town Creek. The battle was, by dark, really a drawn game; but Cornstalk had had enough, and fled during the night.
Upon Leaving Pittsburg, where the governor held a council with several Delaware and Mingo chiefs, to whom he recited the outrages perpetrated by the Shawnees since Bouquet’s treaty of 1764, the northern division divided into two wings. One, 700 strong, under Dunmore, descended the river in boats; the other 500 went across the “pan handel” by land, with the cattle, and both rendezvoused, September 30th at Wheeling, 91 miles below Pittsburg. Next day,(October 1) Crawford resumed his march along the south bank of the Ohio, to a point opposite the mouth of Big Hockhocking, 107 miles farther down. Here the men, the 200 bullocks, and the 50 pack horses swam the Ohio, and just abouve the Big Hockhocking (the site of the present Hockingport) erected a blockhouse and stockade, which they called Fort Gower, in honor of the English earl of that nome. A part of the earthwork can still (1894) be seen in the garden of a Hockingport residence. Dunmore’s party, in 100 canoes and pirogues, arrived a few days later. While at Fort Gower, he was joined by the Delaware chiefs, White Eyes and John Montour, the former of whom was utilized as an agent to negotiate with the Shawnees.
October 10, 1774
After the battle of Point Pleasant, October 10, 1774, General Lewis marched his division of the Virginia forces, according to orders received on the 9th, to join Lord Dunmore’s division on the Pickaway plains. From this point the plan of action was to push forward and destroy the Indian towns. Upon their arrival, however, they found that the Shawnees had already sued for peace, and a treaty was in progress at Camp Charlotte, which was speedily effected. For the successful termination of the War Lord Dunmore received many letters of thanks and congratulation from the Virginians (American Archives, 4th series, vol. i. p. 1019), although later, probably on account of his attitude in the beginning of the Revolution, they questioned so seriously his motives in the management of this Indian War.
It is well known that Logan, the Mingo chief, was not present at the treaty of Camp Charlotte, and that it was there that his famous speech is supposed to have been delivered to Lord Dunmore by Gibson. If so, its eloquence evidently made no impression on Major Crawford, for he does not refer to it.]

President and Commander in Chief George Washington reviews the army as it departs to suppress the Whiskey Rebellion in western Pennsylvania.
By: Dale Gallon
1794: Bradford. David Bradford was a leader of the Whiskey Rebellion in 1794. Bradford was born in MD in 1760 and moved to Washington, PA in 1782. He was an attorney and became deputy-general for Washington County and then in 1792, elected to the state legislature. Bradford was an energetic, and forceful speaker who is credited/blamed for inciting the farmers against the federal government during the Whiskey Rebellion. The David Bradford House, on South Main in Washington, was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1983 by the National Park Service.

Constructed 1786-88 with stone quarried nearby and finished inside with an elaborate mahogany staircase and decorated with fine items brought over the Alleghenies to a region where most houses were made of logs and simply furnished. Bradford was a successful lawyer, businessman, and Deputy Attorney General of Washington County. Title disputes between Pennsylvania and Virginia, together with the imposition of a high excise tax on whiskey, found Bradford siding with the western Pennsylvanians favoring the insurrection. When federal troops were sent to bring the locals to toe, Bradford was to be arrested—causing him to flee to West Florida (Louisiana) never to return (he was later given a pardon).

October 10, 1820: The convention began on October 10 with a talk by Jackson (whom the Choctaw nicknamed Sharp Knife), to more than 500 Choctaw. After his proposal to exchange Choctaw land for territory in present-day Arkansas, Pushmataha accused Jackson of deceiving them of the quality of land west of the Mississippi. Pushmataha said, "I know the country well ... The grass is everywhere very short ... There are but few beavers, and the honey and fruit are rare things." Jackson finally resorted to threats to pressure the Choctaw to sign a treaty. He shouted, "Many of your nation are already beyond the Mississippi, and others are every year removing .... If you refuse ... the nation will be destroyed."

October 10, 1844: Robert Hodgson, FRS, DD, MA (1766 – 1844) was Dean of Carlisle[1] from 1820 to 1844.[2]
Hodgson was the son of Robert Hodgson, of Congleton, and Mildred Hodgson (née Porteus).[3]
Hodgson was educated at Macclesfield School and Peterhouse, Cambridge, where he graduated BA as 14th Wrangler in 1795.[4][5] He was Vicar of St George's, Hanover Square for over 40 years, from 1803 until his death in 1844.[6] He died on October 10, 1844 .[7]
October 10, 1857: Though Robert E. Lee was happy and successful he found himself recalled to Arlington upon the October 10, 1857, death of his father-in-law George Washington Parke Custis. As the health of Mary Lee had steadily declined Lee was stuck with sorting out the problems of the estate. Mr. Custis had large holdings but even larger debts and further had left a poorly drawn holographic will making financial bequests which there was no money to pay. Arlington Hall itself was left to Lee's eldest son George Washington Custis Lee, known as "Custis", who would one day serve as a Confederate Major General and who in 1882 would successfully sue the federal government and gain financial compensation for the taking of Arlington during the conflict. In the course of the settlement Lee was to make arrangements for the emancipation of Mr. Custis' slaves, though he was to also ensure that they would be able to support themselves once free.

October 10, 1961 JFK attacks ultra rightists in a speech at the University of North
Carolina. He says that if Americans remain undeterred by these fanatics, if they can face up to
risks and are purposeful, then we shall be neither Red nor dead, but alive and free.
October 10, 1962 Oswald presents himself at the office of the Texas Employment
Commission where he is interviewed by Louise Latham, on of the placement officers.
JFK tells the press that “one of his Administration’s most effective though least known efforts is
its drive against organized crime.” JFK goes on to say that from January through June of this year
there were 83 convictions.
October 10, 1963 The CIA sends a Teletype to the State Department, the FBI,
immigration authorities, and the Department of the Navy regarding the “possible presence of
Subject [Oswald] in Mexico City.” “On October 1, 1963, a reliable and sensitive source in Mexico
reported that an American male, who identified himself as Lee Oswald, contacted the Soviet Embassy in
Mexico City ... The American was described as approximately 35 years old, with an athletic build, about six
fee tall, with a receding hairline. It is believed that Oswald may be identical to Lee Harvey Oswald, born
on October 18, 1939 in New Orleans, Louisiana.” Also on orders from Washington, D.C., Winston
Scott, the station chief in Mexico City for the CIA, informs the FBI office in Mexico City, the
Immigration and Naturalization Service and the U.S. Embassy of the development.
NOTE: The person who handles this teletype at FBI HQS is apparently Elbert T. Turner. Just 18
days after JFK’s assassination, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover will direct censure and probation be
imposed on him. This punishment will be meted out for Turner’s “failing to take action on CIA
teletype 10/10/63; failing to review file until after the assassination; failing to instruct field to press
more vigorously after subject [Oswald] made contact with Soviet Embassy, Mexico; and failure to
have subject [Oswald] placed on Security Index.” (Refer to October 16, 1963 for FBI’s failure to act
on second cable) Partial information for this entry comes from a PROBE Sept.- Oct. 1999 article by John
Newman.
Andre Gromyko visits JFK at the White House -- his first visit with JFK since the start of
the Cuban Missile Crisis. He finds JFK “smiling and as usual in a good mood.”
n Also on this day, and before evidence comes to light which will show that he is a Soviet
“mole”, Jack E. Dunlap - a sergeant in the National Security Agency, dies in his car in his garage
from asphyxiation, an apparent suicide. As the chauffeur for Major General Garrison B.
Coverdale, the chief of staff of the National Security Agency, Dunlap was able to drive into and
out of NSA headquarters at Fort Meade, Maryland without being stopped or searched.

Hi Jeff. Your Aug 28 e-mail listed a wedding for Ursula Armstrong and John A. Lorence. We are still searching for info of my Dad's Armstrong family. Can you give me a year and possibly location for this wedding. I checked your family tree maker site, but didn't find an Ursula Armstrong; I did find two other Armstrong women from Kansas who had married into the Goodlove/Godlove family. To date I don't have a connection to Kansas with my Armstrongs.Hope this finds you well. Has your daughter left for college yet? That has to be a change for you...As ever, Linda
--
Linda, Love your book, “Our Grandmothers”. I recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about their family history. It has a lot of info that I did not have!
Regarding your email about Ursula Armstrong and John A. Lorence...John Anthony Lorence (Frank, Frantisek, Lorenc) was born May 16, 1901, and died September 1989 in Cedar Rapids, Linn Cnty, IA. He married Ursula Armstrong, August 28, 1924 in Cedar Rapids, IA, daughter of Frank Armstrong and Edna Valenta. She was born May 27, 1906 in Tipton, Iowa.
John Anthony Lorence is buried in Cedar Memorial, Cedar Rapids Iowa.
Child of John Lorence and Ursula Armstrong is Jack Junior Lorence, born February 4, 1927, Cedar Rapids, Ia.
Jack Junior Lorence (John Anthony, Frank, Frantisek Lorence) was born February 4, 1927 in Cedar Rapids, Ia. He married Jean LaRose Goodlove October 15, 1949 in Center Point, Ia., daughter of Covert Goodlove and Berneita Kruse. She was born April 13, 1931 in Linn Cnty, IA. Jack Junior Lorence graduated 1944 from McKinley H.S. bet 1944-1946 was in the Navy. Jean Larose Goodlove was a school secretary at Linn Mar in Marion.
Jack and Jean (my aunt and uncle) were instrumental in the transcription of the original William Harrison Goodlove diary and visited many of the battle grounds that William Harrison Goodlove was at. This information of their visits should be in the edition of the diary.
Hope this answers some of your questions.
