[2] Mathew’s bible, an amalgum of Coverdales and Tindles was allowed to be printed in England.[3] Within 12 months of Tyndale’s martyrdom his Bible was distributed all over England under an assumed name.[4] Rogers would also be consigned to the flames.[5]

October 27, 1765: The last public Auto da Fe was held in Portugal.[10]
1766
Alexander Vance held one of the 4 land warrants issued for Tyrone County (his was issued April 3,1769, but not surveyed till April 11,1788). John Vance, Moses' father settled on a tract of land in 1766. John Vance (d. 1772) "who's ancestors came from Scotland and Ireland, was a native of Virginia". He came to PA with his sister's husband Col. William Crawford. John was already married to his wife Margaret White before he left VA. John died young leaving his wife Margaret to raise their 6 children, David, William, Moses, Jane, Elizabeth, and Maria. "Among the records of property is one where, under date of January 10, 1781, Margaret Vance, widow of John Vance, reported the list of her registered slaves, - one female, named Priscilla, aged twenty-seven years, and two males, Harry and Daniel, aged respectively seven and three years.
Priscilla and Harry afterwards became the property of the daughter, Jane Vance who was married to Benjamin Whalley. The son David (Vance) settled in Kentucky, and William (Vance) remained on the old place until middle life, when he died, never having married. Moses Vance also stayed upon the homestead, and when, in 1790, the land upon which his father's family had lived so long was warrented to Benjamin Whalley, two hundred and fifty acres of it was transferred to him and upon that he resided until his death.
Moses Vance's wife was Elizabeth, a daughter of Jacob Strickler, and they reared a family of seven sons and two daughters, John, Jacob, Samuel, Francis, William, Crawford, George, Margaret, and Eliza. John still lives on the old Gamer place, Jacob is in Lower Tyrone, and William's home is in Connellsville. Before leaving his native town, Tyrone, William held the office of justice of the peace for some years. George Vance removed to Illinois, and Samuel, Francis, Crawford, and Margaret are dead." [11][12]
1766
(Lawrence Harrison) Bought land in western Pa. (Va.) in 1766. [13]
1766 William Crawford completes his improvements and moves his family to their new home in what was then called Augusta County, Virginia. (Fayette County, PA)[14]
“In the spring of the year… he settled, and has continued to live here ever since. That before that time, and in that year, a considerable number of settlements weremade, he thinks near three hundred, without permission from any commanding officer, some of which settlements were made with the limits of the Indiana Company’s claim, and some others within Colonel Croghan’s.”[15]
1766
This increasing contact and intercourse of pioneer settlers, with the Indians led, as might be expected, to many disorders; and as the jealousies of the latter grew stronger, occasional personal conflicts, and even homicides, occurred, which added to the animosities by the whites, and to the causes of complaint by the natives. Many Indians were killed on the frontiers of Virginia and Pennsylvania, and occasionally a white trader or hunter met a corresponding fate. But within the territory of Fayette few such outrages are known to have been perpetrated. Of these was the murder of “Bald Eagle[16],” on the .Monongahela.[17] the killing of Indian Stephen at or near Stewart’s Crosings,[18] and the shooting, and burning the cabin of the two stranger hunters and settlers near Mendenhall’s dam, on the Burnt Cabin fork of Dunlap’s creek.[19] When this case occurred is not so certainly known, but the two Indians were killed in 1766. Great efforts were made to apprehend and punish the offenders, but except as to an alleged accomplice in the case of Stephen, they were fruitless. “At this,” writes Governor Fauquier, “I am not surprised, for I have found by experience that it is impossible to bring any body to justise for the murder of an Indian, who takes shelter among our back inhabitants, among whom it is looked upon as a meritorious action, and they are sure of being protected.”
The Indian murmurs grew louder, and their threats of vengeance more earnest and alarming. So far as concerned Pennsylvania, the great burden of complaint was the settlements upon their lands along the Monongahela, Redstone, the Youghiogheny and Cheat. They complained also of the murder of their people, and to these the more sober and discreet of their tribes, as a distinct grievance, the increasing corruption of the young men and warriors by Rum. They had, however, thus early learned to discriminate between the people of the two rival colonies, and charged nearly all their grievances to the people of Virginia. But, as the localities were in Pennsylvania, it behooved the Penn Government to devise and execute a remedy for the wrongs complained of, so as thereby to prevent the savage retaliation which impended over the border inhabitants.[20]

Appalachian Trails to the Ohio River[24]
1766
Stamp act repealed; great celebrations.[25]
1766: Robert Hodgson (priest): 5th cousin 5x removed of Gerol Lee Goodlove
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][26]
October 27, 1766: Princess Charlotte was christened on October 27, 1766 at St James's Palace, by the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Secker, and her godparents were her paternal uncle and aunt, King Christian VII of Denmark and his wife, Caroline Matilda of Great Britain (for whom the Duke of Portland, Lord Chamberlain, and the Dowager Countess of Effingham, stood proxy, respectively) and her paternal aunt, Princess Louisa.[1] [27]
October 27, 1770: (GW) Incampd at the Mouth of great Hockhocking distant from our last Incampment abt. 32 Miles.
October 27th, 1770: (GW)—Left our encampment a quarter before seven, and after passing the creek near which we lay, and another of much tile same size, and on the same side: also an island about two miles in length, but not wide, we came to the mouth of Muskingum, distant from our encampment about four miles. This river is about one hundred and fifty yards wide at the mouth; it runs out in a gentle current and clear stream, and is navigable a great way into the country for canoes. From Muskingum to the Little Kenhawa is about thirteen miles, ‘This is about as wide at the mouth as the MLmSkingurn, but the water much deeper. It runs up towards tile inhabitants of Monongahela, and according to the Indians account, forks about forty or fifty miles from time mouth, and the ridge between tile two Prongs heads direr tlv to We setttlement. ‘To this foi-k and above, the water is navigable for canoes. On the upper side of this river there appears to be a bottom of exceedingly rich land, and the country from hence quite up to the Timree Islands level and in appearance fine. ‘I’he Ohio running around it in the form of a horse shoe, forms a neck of flat land, which added to that running up tine second Long Reach aforementiomed, cannot comltain less than fifty thousand acres in view.
About six or seven miles below the mouth of Little Kenhawa, we camne to a small creek on the west side, which the Indians called Little Hockhocking; but before we did this, we passed another small creek on the same side near the mouth of that river, and a cluster of islands afterwards. ‘The lands for two or three miles below the moumli of the Little Kenha~va, on both sides of the Ohio, appear broken amid indifferent; but opposite to the Little Hockhocking there is a bottjm of good land, through which there runs a small water course. I suppose there may’ be, of this bottom and flat land together, two or three thousand acres. The lower end of this bottom is opposite to a small island, of which I dare say, little is to be seen when the river is high. About eight miles below Little Hockhocking we •ncamped, opposite the mouth of Great Hockhocking, which, though so called, is not a large water; though the Indians say c~noes go up it for forty or fifty miles. Since we left the Little Kenimawa the lands appear neither so level nor so good. The bends of the river and bottoms are longer, but not so rich as on the upper part of the river.
October 27, 1777: this Day was an Exceeding Stormy day we Recd the news of the Enemys taking possession of Billingsport three hundred in Number, and that two hundred waggon loads of fasshins [fascines] Crossed Schuylkill.[28][29]

Pinckney's Treaty, also known as the Treaty of San Lorenzo or the Treaty of Madrid, was signed in San Lorenzo de El Escorial on October 27, 1795 and established intentions of friendship between the United States and Spain. It also defined the boundaries of the United States with the Spanish colonies and guaranteed the United States navigation rights on the Mississippi River. The treaty's full title is Treaty of Friendship, Limits, and Navigation Between Spain and the United States. Thomas Pinckney negotiated the treaty for the United States and Don Manuel de Godoy represented Spain. Among other things, it ended the first phase of the West Florida Controversy, a dispute between the two nations over the boundaries of the Spanish colony of West Florida. [36]

From Carter Harrison's IV (his son) autobiography, The Stormy Years, we are given the following glimpses into life at the Harrison home. He speaks of dinner his father and John Owsley hosted given in the parlor of Carter's home which the boys were not even allowed to festivities of although they could hear the lusty singing of Good Old Yale, Drink Her Down!, Excelsior and other classics. "It was a small but joyous gathering of the Chicago Yale Club given to song, horseplay and wassail; there was a huge punchbowl into which my father had poured pitcher after pitcher of Bourbon whisky drawn from the barrell in his cellar".[42]

New York City, New York, US
Theodore "T.R." Roosevelt, Jr. (/ˈroʊzəvɛlt/ ROH-zə-velt)[a] (October 27, 1858 – January 6, 1919) was an American politician, author, naturalist, soldier, explorer, and historian who served as the 26th President of the United States.[3] He was a leader of the Republican Party (GOP) and founder of the Progressive Party insurgency of 1912. He is known for his exuberant personality, range of interests and achievements, and his leadership of the Progressive Movement, as well as his "cowboy" persona and robust masculinity.[4] Born into a wealthy family in New York City, Roosevelt was a sickly child who suffered from asthma. To overcome his physical weakness, he embraced a strenuous life. He was home-schooled and became an eager student of nature. He attended Harvard College where he studied biology, boxed, and developed an interest in naval affairs. He quickly entered politics, determined to become a member of the ruling class. In 1881 he was elected to the New York State Assembly, where he became a leader of the reform faction of the GOP. His book The Naval War of 1812 (1882) established him as a learned historian and writer.
Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., was born on October 27, 1858, in a four-story brownstone at 28 East 20th Street, in the modern-day Gramercy section of New York City. He was the second of four children born to glass businessman and philanthropist Theodore "Thee" Roosevelt, Sr. and socialite Martha Stewart "Mittie" Bulloch. He had an older sister named Anna ("Bamie"), a younger brother named Elliott, and a younger sister named Corinne. Elliott was the father of First Lady Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, the wife of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Thee was of Dutch, English, Irish, and Welsh descent while Mittie had Scottish, English, and French ancestry. Thee was the fifth son of businessman Cornelius Van Schaack "C.V.S." Roosevelt and Margaret Barnhill. Thee's fourth cousin businessman James Roosevelt I was the father of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Mittie was the younger daughter of Major James Stephens Bulloch and Martha P. "Patsy" Stewart.[6]
Roosevelt's youth was in large part shaped by his poor health and his need to overcome severe asthma, with debilitating impact on the body and the personality. He experienced recurring sudden nighttime asthma attacks that caused near deathlike experiences of being smothered to death, terrifying the boy and his parents. Doctors had no cure.[7] Nevertheless he was energetic and mischievously inquisitive.[8] His lifelong interest in zoology began at age seven when he saw a dead seal at a local market – after obtaining the seal's head, Roosevelt and two cousins formed what they called the "Roosevelt Museum of Natural History". Having learned the rudiments of taxidermy, he filled his makeshift museum with animals that he killed or caught, then studied and prepared for display. At age nine, he codified his observation of insects with a paper entitled "The Natural History of Insects".[9]
His father had a significant influence on him. His father had been a prominent leader in New York's cultural affairs; he helped to found the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and had been especially active in mobilizing support for the Union war effort. Although his father was dead when the young Roosevelt made his entry into politics, there were many family friends who came to his aid.[10] The son wrote: "My father, Theodore Roosevelt, was the best man I ever knew. He combined strength and courage with gentleness, tenderness, and great unselfishness. He would not tolerate in us children selfishness or cruelty, idleness, cowardice, or untruthfulness." Family trips abroad, including tours of Europe in 1869 and 1870, and Egypt in 1872, also had a lasting impact.[11] Hiking with his family in the Alps in 1869, he found he could actually keep pace with his father. He had discovered the significant benefits of physical exertion to minimize his asthma and bolster his spirits.[12][13] With encouragement from his father, he then began a heavy regime of exercise. After being manhandled by two older boys on a camping trip, a boxing coach was added, to strengthen a weakened body and psyche.[14][15]
Roosevelt later articulated the abiding influence of the courageous men he found in his reading as well as in his family: "I was nervous and timid. Yet from reading of the people I admired – ranging from the soldiers of Valley Forge and Morgan's riflemen, to the heroes of my favorite stories – and from hearing of the feats of my southern forefathers and kinsfolk and from knowing my father, I felt a great admiration for men who were fearless and who could hold their own in the world, and I had a great desire to be like them."[16]

Young Theodore was mostly home schooled by tutors and his parents. Biographer H. W. Brands argues "The most obvious drawback to the home schooling Roosevelt received was uneven coverage of the various areas of human knowledge."[18] He was solid in geography, from self study during travels, and bright in history and biology, French, and German; however, he struggled in mathematics and the classical languages.

October 27, 1911: In an article datelined Yuzivka, Russia, “More Jews to be Expelled: Will Cause much Hardship,” The New York Times reports that the Governor has signed a proclamation stating that all Jews in the Province of Ekaterinoslaff are subject to expulsion, with some limited exceptions.[54]
October 27, 1913: From Itchip, practically the entire Jewish community (about 710 people) fled to Salonica before the arrival of the Bulgarians. Only 5 men and 2 youths stayed behind. Two of the old men were killed; all the Jewish homes were plundered and demolished. Synagogues were desecrated and burned as were 24 Jewish stores and homes.[55]
1912: Aref el Aref, later the historian of Palestine, mandate Southern District officer and mayor of East Jerusalem, warns in Filastin that the Jews want to take over the country.[56]
Before 1912: Before 1912, the predominant social relationships in Union Township revolved around farm work and the various rural neighborhoods composing the area. Being a good neighbor entailed conforming to expected ways of acting toward other people with whom one came into regular contact while working and living in the same small area. These expectations extended to the sharing of capital goods and labor in matters incidental to production, to participation in group based recreational activities, to cooperation in the structuring of childhood socialization experiences, and in the conduct of leisure time activities of adults or whole families. Good working relationships with one’s neighbors were necessary adjunts to the family, and neighborhood based system of commercial agriculture then practiced. As a person who grew up in the Buck Creek area during this period put it, “you can’t get along without your neighbor no matter what he is, black or white, red or green. You can’t get along no matter where you are without your friends.”[57]
Until 1912, most of the sixty seven members of the Buck Creek Methodist Episcopal Church were residents of this neighborhood. There were, however, a few members scattered throughout other neighborhoods in Union Township and a few in the Harrington heighborhood (the No. 6 subdistrict) in Hazel Green Township. While the Buck Creek Church was the only church located in Union Township, it was not the oly religious body with a significant number of members there or in the somewhat larger area that would soon become identified as Buck Creek. Others included the Presbytterian church in Hopkinton 5.5 miles east of the Buck Creek Church, the Lutheran and Catholic churches in Ryan eight miles west, the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Castle Grove Township in Jones County about four miles southeast, and the new Catholic church in
Delhi 6.5 miles north.[58]
Most seemed to agree with local newspapers and farm journals that attributed these population declines to older farmers retiring and moving to town, which in this area was most frequently Hopkinton for Protestant families and Monticallo or Ryan for Catholic families. Lending further support to this view was that the enrollment sin the country schools of the area had on average remained constant or increased slightly during this period. Furthermore, twenty five families in a country school district (or subdistrict of a school township) tended to provide more than enough students to keep a country school teacher busy.[59]
Although the rural neighborhoods had lost some of their economic importance in the mixed farming practiced in the area, they still retained their identity. This was becase ther were (and are) no small towns or villages in any of the three townships. Four general stores and two small creameries were located near the edges of the area, but even these had not formed the nucleus of anything ore than the usual crossroads settlement of three or four farm families. Hopkinton was the primary trade and marketing center for most of Union and Castle Grove Townships, and Ryan for most of Hazel Green Township. The distance between these two towns, almost fourteen miles, was traversed by roads that became impassable by automobile for several days at a time during rainy periods, especially in late winter and spring. This left the two churches in the area as the only other preexisting institutions with any potential to become the organizational bases for the creation of a larger, more spatially extensive community consciousness to challenge and transcend the traditional neighborhood. Indeed, if there was any rural “community” in the area that was spatially more extensive than that of the traditional neighborhood, it was the Immaculate Conception Parish. Dominated by several Irish Catholic families, the parish covered most of the territory of the four country school subdistricts surrounding it, two in Union Township and two in Castle GTrove Township.[60]
1912-1913
The Union No. 5 subdistrict, the Dufoe neighborhood, was composed largely of Irish Catholic families belonging to the Castle Grove Parish. It did, however, contain a few descendants of those who had formed the Protestant settlement of Grove Creek before 1875. The Winches were among these. Warren Winch, like his father before him (ed. William Henry Winch), was the school director, having first been elected to the post in 1912-1913. He remained its director for the next decade, aided considerably by his local prominence in Democratic politics and by having a wife (ed. Cora Mae Furgason) who made no secret of being of Irish extraction. James Kehoe, the secretary of the township school board, was also a resident of this subdistrict and a neighbor of Winch. It would probably be more accurate to say that ‘”Winch and Kehoe together ran this subdistrict or neighborhood, even though it was Winch who repeatedly stood for reelection as director. This subdistrict was known to have the best farmland in the township.[61]
1912 to 1921: The officers of the Union Township Board of Directors from 1912 to 1921 were Warren H. Wnch, president; James Kehoe, secretary; and James A. Johnson, treasurer. These three men commanded the respect of all neighbnorhood leaders in the area. Their high social and economic status derived from their ownership of land, their kinship, and their commitment to maiontaining the social relations of neighborhood upon which family farming in the area depended. Collectively, they represented traditional bases of rural social and political power.Their presence on the board helped ensure that the power to determine basic educational policy would be shared and not the prerogative of any single group in the township. The responsibility for adapting general school policy to the particulareities of individual neighborhoods remained with the directors of each of the eight schools.[62]
1912 to 1922: In the decade of most interest here, 1912-1922, the Buck Creek Methodist Episcopal Church, under the leadership of a charismatic minister imbued with an evangelical variant of Country Life ideology, set about doing the Catholic community one better by creating a larger, Protestant counterpart. It did so by articulating its own locally nuanced version of how the rural church could become the key agent in rural social and economic change by implementing a series of measures designed to instill in the residents of the area a new kind of rural community consciousness. The effort largely succeeded, but had some important and unforeseen consequences. Perhaps the most significant element in the process was the almost decade long struggle of leaders in the Buck Creek Church to close the country schools in the area and transport students to a new, thoroughly modern consolidated school to be located near the church. Most other efforts to revitalize rural churches and c ommunities saw religion and education as complementrry, but separate spheres, involving different sets of experts. Typically the experts remained silent on the issue of how these speres should become articulated in concrete social practice in place. By following the precepts of the new rural sociology then dominant in religious thinkinhjg in most Protestant denomninations, the Buch Creek Church became a potent “community” force through its many and variegated social activities in the neighborhoods of the area. Indeed, the success of the Buck Creek Church in this regard attracted regional and eventually national attention among the leaders of Protestant home missions work.[63] For a time, Buck Creek appeared to be an exemplar worthy of emulation by rural churches elsewhere in the nation.[64]
The Buck Creek Parish had much more difficultyhowever, in successfully promoting rural school consolidation. School Consolidation, as we have seen, was being actively promoted by educatiohnal leaders in the state not only as an important educational innovation but as a measn of creating new rural communities, communities that could stem the flood of the most intelligent and energetic young people to the cities. Leaders of the Buck Creek Church also subscribed to this view but sought to link school consolidation to its own explicitly Protestant (and Methodist) communitybuilding project. School consolidation could perhaps become a central means of retaining Protestant farm families in the area, but what of Catholic farm families? If the country schools were abandoned and school consolidation entailed Methodist hegemony in the day to day activities of Buck Creek, it appeared that Catholic families would lose a large measure of control over their children’s education and lose one of the principal ways in which they had interacted effectively with their Protestant neighbors. Historically, the social relations of neighborhoods in the area had not produced sectrarian conflict and hostility; but those of the new Buck Creek “community,” based on church and religious affiliation, did. The problem was that Catholics could not become full members of the Buck ‘Creek community and still remain Catholics.[65]
October 27, 1917: Lucinda Caroline Smith12 [Gabriel D. Smith11 , Gabriel Smith10, John “LR” Smith9, Ambrose J.

October 27, 1933: First Lady Offers Arthurdale
as Solution of Miners’ Problems
Arthurdale. Mrs. Roosevelt’s model
town-to-be in northern West Virginia, has
both a past and a future.
The farm that has been purchased by the
government for its rehabilitation experiment
has a past that is woven into
America’s early history.
George Washington surveyed the place,
it is said. Lord Fairfax owned it. It was a
storm center during the anti-slavery agitation.
Then a Pittsburgh hotel-keeper bought
it and fenced it in with shovel handles.
The Fairfax heirs held the farm until the
war between the states. Colonel John
Fairfax, the head of the family, died in 1843
at the age of 81. He and his wife were buried
on the highest hill on the farm. Around
them, a little farther down on the slope, are
the graves of some 200 slaves that worked
on the place. . . .
The old Fairfax homestead has long ago
rotted away. The present farm home is a
great turreted frame house of 22 rooms. This
house will be tom down after Arthurdale is
completed, because its architecture is not
right. The government is determined to
make Arthurdale a truly beautiful spot.
Land Fine for Buckwheat
The recent owner of the farm was
Richard Arthur, who built the Arthur Hotel
on south Twenty-seventh Street, Pittsburgh,
some 40 years ago. He has lived on the farm
for 35 years. The land of Arthurdale, like
that of most of Preston County, West
Virginia, is particularly adapted to the raising
of fine potatoes and buckwheat. Mr.
Arthur maintained that his buckwheat was
about the finest in the world.
Future More Important
So much for Arthurdale’s past. Its future
is more important. The government is sparing
no pains to make Arthurdale a success.
It is being especially careful about the families
that are selected for the village.
Just anyone cannot make application to
live in Arthurdale. Even poverty will not be
much of a factor is selecting the residents.
Arthurdale is too important as a socio-economic
experiment to have its future endangered
by undesirables.
One must be a native, white American
before he can even apply. Other mine families
in the northern West Virginia field will
be taken care of in villages to be established
later, it has been announced.
The application blank which must be
filled out devotes much attention to the
physique of the applicant and of any other
members of his family who might help him
work his farm. It also wants to know if the
applicant has ever borrowed or loaned farm
tools, what recreation he likes best, and
whether he ever failed at farming.
There is a two-page questionnaire seeking
to determine the applicant’s knowledge
of farm work. The questions range from
asking the applicant to distinguish a rooster
from a hen to a query about the moon’s
influence on planting time.
The applicant must place his hand on a
piece of paper and have it traced. This gives
officials some idea of his capacity for manual
work.
After the head of the family has filed his
application, sociology students from West
Virginia University visit his home and ask
questions. They want particularly to know
whether the family desires to leave the mine
camp for the model village.
The students notice the neatness, or lack of
neatness, in the miner’s abode. They determine
the wife’s attitude toward farming, the
V. Depression and New Deal 271
way she gets along with her neighbors and
note any evidence of thriftiness. They also
try to find out how the children fit into a
neighborhood.
About 100 families have already been
tentatively selected to be residents of
Arthurdale. The other 100 or 175 families
will be chosen from a mass of applications
in the office of Bushrod Grimes,
Morgantown agricultural expert, who has
been pressed into service by Mrs. Roosevelt
and the Department of Interior to help
supervise the colonization of Arthurdale.
Arthurdale will succeed. The First Lady
of the Land, who stepped into northern
West Virginia unannounced two months
ago to observe conditions there for herself,
has also stepped right into the midst of the
welter of problems that beset the mine
camps. Arthurdale is her solution for these
problems. [67]
October 27, 1937: The Palestine Post reported that in Danzig Jewish shops and houses were pillaged and windows smashed. This outbreak of violence against the Jews took place almost two years before the outbreak of World War II. [68]
October 27, 1938 : Hitler expelled 18,000 Jews from Germany who were born in the former Polish provinces. The Jews were abused and tortured as they made their way to the border. The Poles did not want to admit the Jews and for a while many were left to languish on the border. [69]
October 27, 1940: Ritual slaughter is banned in Belgium. [70]
October 27, 1941: Jews of Sluzk, 60 miles south of Minsk, Belorussia, are annihilated by Einsatzkommando troop, half of whom are German, half Lithuanian.[71]
October 27, 1941: IN the Polish town of Kalisz (Kalisz is where the Goodfirend family is from who are a DNA match to the Goodlove family.) a large black truck drove up and took on a passenger load of Jews. Escorted by two Gestapo cars, the truck drove away. Its passengers were never heard from again. This was the first of the gas wagons. This method of extermination was not efficient and ould give way to that ultimate in German efficiency, the gas chamber.[72]
Octoeber 27, 1941: The Italian foreign ministry approved al-Husseini's proposal, recommended giving him a grant of one million lire, and referred him to Benito Mussolini, who met al-Husseini on October 27. According to al-Husseini's account, it was an amicable meeting in which Mussolini expressed his hostility to the Jews and Zionism.[122][73]
Burial at Sea
Officers and men gather on Enterprise's hangar deck, as the 44 men killed at Santa Cruz are buried at sea, October 27, 1942.
Though the Japanese initially hoped to pursue the remaining American forces, a night PBY torpedo attack on the October 27th, and their own devastating plane losses, convinced them otherwise, and early in the afternoon of October 27 they were ordered back to Truk.
At the cost of Hornet, the destroyer Porter (torpedoed during the first attack on Enterprise), 74 planes, and over 400 men killed or wounded, the American fleet had turned back a superior Japanese force and severely weakened Japan's remaining carrier air forces.
The Consequences
Though tactically Santa Cruz was a draw, strategically it was a narrow victory for the Americans. Nagumo's carriers and Kondo's battleships had been turned away from Guadalcanal, giving the Marines and soldiers there some much needed relief. Perhaps more importantly, the destruction of the best Japanese naval aircrews, begun in earnest at Midway, culminated at Santa Cruz. Though plane losses were high on both sides - 74 American and 92 Japanese - the loss of airmen pointed to a Japanese catastrophe. Nearly 70 Japanese aircrews - including a number of squadron leaders - never returned to their carriers at Santa Cruz, while all but 33 American airmen did. [74]
October 27, 1942: The Nazis sent 3,000 Jews from Opocno, Poland to Treblinka. At the start of the war almost half the town of Opoczno was Jewish. Jews had lived there since the 14th century. The Jews had lived there continually since the start of the 18th century. At the time of the mass deportation in October 1942, scores of Jews fled to the forests
and organized opartisan units there. The best known unit, “Lions”, under the command of Julian Ajzenman-Kaniewski, conducted a number of successful guerilla actions against Nazi forces and the OpocznoKonskie railway line. Aftetr the war the Jewish Community of Opocznowas not reconstituted.[75]
October 27, 1942: Germany announced that any Pole helping Jews to escape should be dealt with “without the necessary delay of court hearings.” The penalty for assisting Jews was death.[76]
October 27-28, 1942: Seven thousand Krakow Poland, Jews are deported to Belzec; 600 are killed in Krakow.[77]

October 27, 1962: During the Cuban Missile Crisis, a group of eleven United States Navy destroyers and the aircraft carrier USS Randolph located the diesel-powered nuclear-armed Soviet Foxtrot-class submarine B-59 near Cuba. Despite being in international waters, the Americans started dropping practice depth charges, explosives intended to force the submarine to come to the surface for identification. There had been no contact from Moscow for a number of days and, although the submarine's crew had earlier been picking up U.S. civilian radio broadcasts, once B-59 began attempting to hide from its U.S. Navy pursuers, it was too deep to monitor any radio traffic, so those on board did not know whether war had broken out.[5] The captain of the submarine, Valentin Grigorievitch Savitsky, believing that a war might already have started, wanted to launch a nuclear torpedo.[6]
Three officers on board the submarine had to agree unanimously to authorize the launch: Captain Savitsky; the political officer Ivan Semonovich Maslennikov; and the second-in-command Arkhipov. An argument broke out among the three, in which only Arkhipov was against the launch.[7]
Although Arkhipov was only second-in-command of submarine B-59, he was commander of the entire flotilla of submarines, including B-4, B-36 and B-130, and equal in rank to Captain Savitsky. According to author Edward Wilson, the reputation Arkhipov gained from his courageous conduct in the previous year's K-19 incident also helped him prevail in the debate.[3] Arkhipov eventually persuaded Savitsky to surface the submarine and await orders from Moscow. This presumably averted the nuclear warfare which could possibly have ensued had the torpedo been fired.[8] The submarine's batteries had run very low and the air-conditioning had failed, so it was forced to surface amidst its U.S. pursuers and head home.[9] Washington's message that practice depth charges were being used to signal the submarines to surface never reached B-59, and Moscow claims it has no record of receiving it either.
Aftermath
When discussing the Cuban missile crisis in 2002, Robert McNamara, who was U.S. Secretary of Defense during the crisis, stated that "we came very close" to nuclear war, "closer than we knew at the time."[10][81]
October 27, 1962 A U2 spy plane is downed over Cuba during the crisis. [82]

In Vietnam, Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge is surprised by an invitation to spend a
day in the country with President Diem. They leave Saigon by helicopter this morning, and
spend most of the day at the president’s villa in the hill town of Dalat. Lodge then cables JFK:
“Diem is very likable. One feels that he is a nice, good man who is living a good life by his own rights, but
he is a man who is cut off from the present, who is living in the past, who is truly indifferent to people as
such and who is simply unbelievably stubborn.” [83]

TR impersonator Joe Wiegand performs October 27, 2008 in the East Room of the White House, during a celebration of Roosevelt's 150th birthday.
Roosevelt's 1901 saying "Speak Softly and Carry a Big Stick" is still quoted by politicians and columnists in different countries—not only in English but also in translation to various other languages.[81]
One lasting popular legacy of Roosevelt is the stuffed toy bears—teddy bears—named after him following an incident on a hunting trip in Mississippi in 1902. Roosevelt famously refused to shoot a defenseless black bear. After the cartoonist Clifford K. Berryman illustrated the President with a bear, a toy maker heard the story and named the teddy bear after Roosevelt. Bears and later bear cubs became closely associated with Roosevelt in political cartoons thereafter, despite Roosevelt openly despising being called "Teddy".[70] [84]

"Bald Eagle's Nest. A Delaware Indian village name for a noted Munsee chief Woapalanne or "Bald Eagle." Located at union of Spring and Bald Eagle Creeks. From here raids on the frontier were made in Revolutionary days.
"Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission."
Bald Eagle was named as the assassin of James Brady near Williamsport in 1778 and the victim of Brady’s brother (Sam) in June 1779 near Brady’s Bend on the Allegheny River in Clarion County.
Some accounts have Chief Cornplanter of the Senecas as being part of Bald Eagle’s party that killed James Brady. White men on the Monongahela River killed another Bald Eagle in 1779.
When reading of “Bald Eagle”—beware! Bald Eagle and Sam Brady have both taken on near mythical status and the accounts of both are seasoned with both fact and fiction. Some write that after James Brady was scalped by Bald Eagle, Brady lived four or five days before dying and was able to make positive identification as to his assassin. After Sam Brady shot Bald Eagle, he is said to have scalped the Munsee chief.

[17] ”Bald Eagle” was an Inoffensive old Delaware warrior. He was on Intimate terms with the early settlers, with whom he hunted, fished and visited. He was well-known along our Monongahela border, up and down which he frequently passed in his canoe. Somewhere up the river, probably about the mouth of Cheat, he was killed—by whom, and on what pretense, Is unknown. His dead body, placed upright In his canoe, with a piece of corn-bread in his clenched teeth, was set adrift on the river. The canoe came ashore at Provance’s Bottom, where the familiar old Indian was at once recognized by the wife of William Yard Provance, who wondered he did not leave his canoe. On closer observation, she found he was dead. She had him decently buried on the Fayette shore, near the early residence of Robert McClean, at what was known as McClean’s Ford. This murder was regarded, both by whites and Indians, as a great outrage, and the latter made it a prominent item in their list of unavenged grievances.
[18] (h)This offense was committed by one Samuel Jacobs, aided and abetted by one John Ingman, an ‘indented servant” of Capt. Wm. Crawford—probably a negro slave. The pravocation and other circumstances of the case are unknown. The case acquired importance from the fact that the Governor of Virginia, contrary to the claim of that province to the territory embracing the locality of the killing, had sent one of the offenders back from Virginia to Pennsylvania to be tried for the offense—See “Boundary ControVersy.”
[19] (flThis case, as related by Joseph Mendenhall, au old soldier, and settler at the place known as Mendenhall’s Dam, in Menallen township, was thus:— About three and a half miles west of Unlontown, on the south side of the State, or Heaton Road, which leads from the Poor-House, through New Salem, &c., and within five or six rods of the road (on land now of Joshua Woodward) are the remains of an old clearing of about one-fourth. of an acre, and within It the remains of an old chimney. Two or three rods south-eastward is a small spring, the drain of which leads off westward Into the “Burnt Cabin fork” of Dunlap’s or Nemacolin’s creek; and still further south, some four or five rods is the old trail, or path called Dunlap’s road, which we have heretofore traced. The story Is, that In very early times—perhaps about 1767, two men came over the mountains by this path to hunt, &c., and began an improvement at this clearing, and put up a small cabin upon it. While asleep in their cabin, some Indians came to it, and shot them, and then set fire to the cabin. Their names are unknown. So far as known, this Is the only case of the kind that ever occurred within our county limits.
