| 7055 | Son of King Pharamond and Argotta Rosamund. Father of King Meroveus Biography: He is the oldest king of the Merovingian dynasty whose existence is certain. Towards the middle of the 5th century, Clodion entered with his army into Roman territory from East of the Rhine (Allemagne) and seized the Cambrésis and the Southern Artois. He founded a small Frankish kingdom, which Clovis I inherited, and which was the embryo of the future kingdom of France. Before the advent of Clodion and since 342, the Salian Franks are installed as foederatie inside the Roman Empire, in the North of Gaul, in Toxandrie, between the Moesan marshes, North of the current Maastricht, and the Charbonnière forest. On January 17, 395, the Roman Empire was divided into two parts: the Eastern Empire and the Western Empire. From 407, several Germanic peoples entered Gaul and settled there. The Visigoths founded a kingdom in Aquitaine, the Alans (non-Germanic people) took up their quarters near Orleans, the Burgundians and the Alamans settled along the Rhine. During the reign of Clodion, Valentinian III ruled the western part of the Roman Empire. Clodion begins to reign around 428. He succeeds his father King Theodomir. He leads the people of the Salian Franks from its capital, the fortress of Dispargum, located east of the Rhine. Towards 432, Clodion learns that the cities of the Roman province of Belgium secondus are defenseless: Aetius, Roman general charged with the defense of Gaul, took many soldiers from these territories to fight alternately the Burgundians, the Alans, the Rhenish Franks, the anti-tax revolts and the Visigoths. Clodion decides to mount an expedition and mobilizes his entire army. Crossing the Charbonnière forest, the Franks seized Tournai, carried Cambrai and Arras at the first assault and reduced the whole country from the surroundings to the Somme. More than easy pillaging, Clodion seeks to give his authority as a warrior king a territorial base. The occupation lasted a few years without Aetius trying to end it. In 448, Clodion, who celebrated the wedding of an important member of his army in the village of Helena near Arras, was attacked by General Aetius and his lieutenant Majorien. The general wants to put back the Salian Franks who have annexed territories without his authorization. Clodion, not prepared for the confrontation, is forced to flee. But Aetius, who does not have the military means to occupy the territory again, prefers to renegotiate with Clodion and authorizes him to settle in the Empire, in this case on the territories they have already conquered in Arras , Cambrai and Tournai (its capital). After more than twenty years of reign, Clodion died shortly before the year 451. According to Frankish custom, his kingdom was divided between his sons. The elder, undoubtedly Mérovée, obtains the city of Tournai and its region. A second heir obtains Cambrai and a third Tongeren. Union and descendants: He married Hildegonde of Cologne who followed. The couple had several children, including: - Mévovée Ier (411/457) king of the Franks, although few documents attest to his existence. - Chlodebaud of Cologne (420/483), king of the Rhenish Franks, - Lambert of Thérouanne (425/451) king of Thérouanne. | le Chevelu, King Clodion le Chevelu (I32198)

Biography Whalesborough’s father died while he was still a minor (aged about 13), leaving six manors and three advowsons in Cornwall, all of which were settled on his widow for life should she not remarry. However, she did marry again and a dispute over the wardship of the lands and heir ensued. At first committed to the widow and her second husband, they passed in June 1383 to William, Lord Botreaux, with whom they remained until Whalesborough proved his age in June 1391. According to an extent made the previous year his inheritance was worth £31 6s.8d. p.a.2 Whalesborough seems to have increased this property, for by his death he owned seven manors and extensive lands in Cornwall besides receiving rents at Berrynarbor, Devon. With great care and forethought, and in some detail, he settled these estates for the benefit of his wife and family, beginning in 1401, when Sir John Grenville*, his neighbour at Stow, and other friends acted as feoffees of Tresidder and Lancarffe. Subsequent transactions in 1403 (regarding the manor of Whalesborough) and 1411 (that of Lamellion) provided his wife with a jointure. Then, in July 1417, two further settlements were made for his sons, John and Robert, and finally, in December that year, Perranuthnoe, Trerose and Halwyn, along with three advowsons, were put into the hands of trustees, headed by (Sir) John Colshull II*, presumably in the interest of the heir, Thomas.3 Only a few other traces of Whalesborough’s activities have survived. He received an episcopal licence for oratories at any of his manor-houses in December 1391, and he and his wife and William their son received a similar one specifically for Whalesborough in June 1400. In 1405 the Crown unsuccessfully disputed Whalesborough’s right to the patronage of the church at St. Mawnan. His land evidently gave him some considerable status in the county. For instance, he was asked to act as arbitrator in a local dispute, and five of his feoffees (Colshull, Grenville, John Arundell II*, Nicholas Broomford* and John But*), at one time or another sat in Parliament. He himself participated in the Cornish elections held in October 1411 and April 1413 at Launceston and Lostwithiel, respectively. Moreover, the connexion with the noble family of Botreaux, begun during his minority, was always maintained.4 Whalesborough died on 10 Jan. 1418. Custody of his lands and the marriage of his heir, then aged 13, was granted out by the Crown for £100. His widow took as her second husband Sir Thomas Pomeroy*, while one of his daughters married Thomas, Lord Scales, and another William, Lord Moleyns.5 | Whalesborough, John II (I35645)

William McQuigg. son of John and grandfather of James C. McQuigg, was born in this parish and died there in his seventy-fifth year. William McAfee, the maternal grandfather of James C. McQuigg. emigrated to the United States with his family in 1838. settling in Wayne County. Ohio, where he died in 1863 when aged about seventy-six' years. The parents of James C. McQuigg were John and Sarah (McAfee) McQuigg, both of whom wore horn in IRELAND Carragh parish, the father in May, 1805 and the mother in July of the same year. They were married in this parish in September, 1831 and continued to live there until June, 1843, when they took passage with their children, seven in number, from Liverpool to New York, going from there to Wayne County, Ohio, arriving there In the month of August of the same year. The names of the seven children according to priority of birth were: William, Eliza. Martha Jane. Mary Ann. Samuel, James C. and John. Afterward two more children were born: Sarah and Margaret. The father soon after coming to this country became interested in farming and earnestly engaged in the same with the aid of his sons, and he kept it up very extensively during the active years of his life. The mother, with the aid of their daughters, looked after the domestic affairs, and she saw that they secured a fairly good education, the two youngest receiving collegiate training. It was indeed a good and happy family. The children were taught to believe in the divinity of Christ and all the family became members of the Presbyterian Church.

His great grandfather, Daniel Brodhead, was a royalist and captain of the grenadiers in the reign of Charles II. He came with the expedition under Colonel Nichols in 1664, that captured the Netherlands (now New York) from the Dutch, and settle in Marbletown in 1665. His son Richard, and his son Daniel, the father of the subject of this sketch, also resided in Marbletown. Daniel Brodhead, Sr., in 1736, removed to a place called Dansville on Brodhead's Creek, near Stroudsburgh, Monroe county, Pennsylvania, when Daniel Brodhead, Jr., was an infant. The latter and his brothers became famous for their courage in conflicts with the Indians on the border, their father's house having been attacked by the savages December 11th, 1755. Daniel became a resident of Reading in 1771, where he was deputy surveyor. In July, 1775, he was appointed a delegate from Berks county to the provincial convention in Philadelphia. At the breaking out of the Revolution, Daniel was elected a lieutenant-colonel (commissioned October 25, 1776) and subsequently became colonel of the Eighth Pennsylvania Regiment, his promotion was March 12, 1777, to rank from September 29, 1776. He participated in the battle of Long Island, and in other battles in which Washington's army was engaged. He marched to Fort Pitt in the summer of 1778, his regiment forming a part of Brigadier-General Lachlan McIntosh's command in the Western Department. Here he served until the next spring, when he succeeded to the command in the West, headquarters at Fort Pitt. He retained this position until September 17, 1781, making a very efficient and active commander, twice leading expeditions into the Indian country, in both of which he was successful; but was superceded in his command at Pittsburgh by Colonel John Gibson. Brodhead was, at that date, colonel of the First Pennsylvania Regiment, to which position he was assigned January 17, 1781. After the war, he was Surveyor General of Pennsylvania. He was appointed to that office November 3, 1789 and held the place eleven years, he having previously served in the General Assembly. He died at Milford, Pike county, November 15, 1809. He was twice married. By his first wife he had two children; by his second, none. In 1872, at Milford, an appropriate monument was erected in his memory. From Life Sketch Daniel Brodhead (October 17, 1736 - November 15, 1809) was an American military and political leader during the American Revolutionary War and early days of the United States. Biography: General Daniel Brodhead, of revolutionary fame, whose portrait appears elsewhere in this volume, was born in Marbletown, Ulster county, New York, in 1736, and died and was buried in Milford, Pennsylvania, November 15, 1809. He was the great-grandson of Capt. Daniel Brodhead, of the English army, who came to this country in 1664, as a member of the expedition commanded by Col. Richard Nichols, in the service of King Charles II, after the Restoration. This Daniel Brodhead, the father of the subject of this biography, removed with his family from Ulster county, New York, in the year 1737, to Danville, Pennsylvania, while the subject of this biography was but an infant. Inured to the dangers of the Indian frontier from his very cradle, the impression made as he grew up among the scenes of Indian barbarities, and the outrages of the savages, helped to form his future character and to mold him into the grand, successful soldier and Indian fighter which his subsequent history proved him to be. General Brodhead first appeared prominently in public life when he was elected a deputy from Berks county to a provincial meeting which met at Philadelphia, July 15, 1774, and served on a committee which reported sixteen resolutions, one of which recommended the calling of a continental congress and acts of non-importation and non-exportation from Great Britain. These were among the first steps toward the revolution which followed.At the beginning of the war of the revolution he was commissioned by the assembly of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia as colonel of the 8th regiment PA Colonial Troops. He first participated in the battle of Long Island. Before the close of the battle he commanded the whole of the Pennsylvania contingent troops, composed of several battalions. He was especially mentioned by Washington in his report to congress on this battle, for brave and meritorious conduct. He also participated in several other battles of the revolution. Having received the approbation of Washington, he was sent by him, in June, 1778, with his troops to Fort Muncy, where he rebuilt that fort formerly destroyed by the Indians, which command he held until Washington, on the following spring, recommended his selection to congress for the command of the western department. Washington, being personally acquainted and warmly attached to him, knew well his qualifications as a brave, judicious and competent general. Washington, by sanction of congress, issued an order, dated March 5, 1779, directing him to proceed to Fort Pitt, Pennsylvania, and take charge of the western department, extending from the British possessions, at Detroit, on the north, to the French possessions (Louisiana) on the south, a command and responsibility equal to any in the revolutionary army.Gen. Brodhead established the headquarters of his department at Fort Pitt, now Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He had under his command the posts of Fort Pitt, Fort McIntosh, Fort Laurens, Fort Tuscarora, Fort Wheeling, Fort Armstrong and Fort Holliday's Cove. He made a number of successful expeditions in person against the Indians with a large part of his command. In 1779 he executed a brilliant march up the Allegheny with 605 men, penetrating into New York, overcoming almost insurmountable difficulties, through a wilderness without roads, driving the Indians before him, depopulating and destroying their villages all along his route, killing and capturing many. This expedition began August 11 and ended September 14, 1779, between 300 and 400 miles in thirty-three days, through a wilderness without a road. General Brodhead received the thanks of congress for this expedition, and the following acknowledgement from General Washington: "The activity, perseverance and firmness which marked the conduct of General Brodhead, and that of all the officers and men of every description in this expedition, do them great honor, and their services entitle them to the thanks and to this testimonial of the general's acknowledgement."A great number of the thrilling Indian stories of which we read in the present day occurred under Gen. Brodhead�s command. The famous Capt. Brady was a captain in Gen. Brodhead's eighth regiment, and seldom ever went out on a scout but by orders from the general. General Brodhead's devotion to the cause of liberty was untiring. He never doubted the result of the war, and his letters of encouragement to Gen. Washington and others are part of the history of our country. In one, lamenting the coldness of some former patriots, he writes: "There is nothing I so much fear as a dishonorable peace. For heaven's sake, let every good man hold up his hands against it. We have never suffered half I expected we should, and I am willing to suffer much more for the glorious cause for which I have and wish to bleed." Gen. Brodhead had a treble warfare to wage a warfare which required the genius and daring of a soldier, the diplomacy of a statesman and the good, hard sense and clear judgment of an independent ruler over an extensive country composed of a variety of elements. He waged war upon the unfriendly Indians, and held as allies in friendship several friendly nations. He watched and controlled, to a great extent, the British influence upon the Indians in the direction of Detroit. He kept in subjection a large Tory element west of the mountains in sympathy with Great Britain, and punished them by confiscating their surplus stores and provisions for the benefits of his starving soldiers, when they had refused to sell to his commissary officers on the credit of the government; but he never resorted to this punishment until his starving soldiers paraded in a body in front of his quarters and announced they had had no bread for five days. On June 24, 1779, Gen. Brodhead issued his famous order directing Col. Bayard to proceed to Kittanning and erect a fort at that point for the protection of all settlers desiring to settle in that vicinity, and for the better protection of the frontier. After the erection of this fort settlers took up land and built their houses around and in the vicinity of this fort, under its protection, until the accumulation of houses and homes in the vicinity transformed the Indian town of Kittanning into the present thriving capital of Armstrong county, which can only justly and truthfully be acknowledged the result of the fort erected by command of Gen. Brodhead, and which he was too modest to have called after himself, regardless of the importunate efforts of Col. Bayard, whom history shows to have earnestly entreated Brodhead to permit him to call it Fort Brodhead. Gen. B's untiring watchfulness of the settlements along the Allegheny, the building of his fort at Kittanning, his protection of the inhabitants in its vicinity until they became numerous enough to defend themselves, his modesty in not permitting the fort to be called after himself, justly entitle him to the credit of being the founder of Kittanning, just as the erecting of every fort on our western frontier from that day to this has been the foundation of a city or town which invariably sprang from such a planting, as Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne, Leavenworth, Fort Dodge, Detroit, for never until that time had Kittanning any white inhabitants, and never from that time until the present has it been without white inhabitants. In 1781, Gen. B. was given command of the 1st Pa. Colonial regiment, and during that year received his full commission as general. His services extended through the entire war of the revolution, and at its close he was elected by the officers assembled at the cantonment of the American army on the Hudson River, May 10, 1783, as one of the committee to prepare the necessary papers for the organization of the Society of the Cincinnati. In 1789 General Brodhead was elected by the Pennsylvania assembly surveyor-general of the State of Pennsylvania, which position he held for nearly twelve years. For his services in the revolution Gen. B. received several thousand acres of land, which he located in Western Pennsylvania. Besides this he purchased largely of land through Western Pennsylvania, Virginia and Kentucky. He located much land in the vicinity of Kittanning and on the Allegheny, the scenes of his former exploits, which he never ceased to love. His second marriage was to the widow of Gen. Samuel Mifflin. He had but one child, Ann Garton Brodhead. She married Casper Heiner, of Reading, Pennsylvania, a surveyor by profession and an author of a series of mathematics.

| 7073 | Spangler, Harrison Earl (June 10, 1879–July 28, 1965) –lawyer, Republican national committeeman, and chairman of the Republican National Committee—was born on a farm in Guthrie County, Iowa, the son of farmer and politician Zwingle B. and Martha (McManus) Spangler. After service in the Spanish-American War, he went to the State University of Iowa, receiving a law degree in 1905, and was admitted to the Iowa bar that same year. Having helped his father work for the GOP from a young age, Spangler undertook political work, helping to elect his law partner, James W. Good, to Congress in 1908. A staunch party loyalist, Spangler became chair of the Republican State Central Committee in 1930, a member of the Republican National Committee (RNC) in 1931, and a member of the RNC executive committee in 1932. Spangler's rise to prominence in the national organization of the Republican Party coincided with the GOP's efforts to formalize its national structure and find a way for the party to remain competitive and relevant as an opposition party during the New Deal and World War II. Under RNC chairmen Henry P. Fletcher and John D. M. Hamilton, Spangler helped strengthen the party organization during the Roosevelt years. In the aftermath of the 1934 midterm elections, the RNC put Spangler in charge of an effort to use the Midwest as a base for revitalizing the national party organization. Building on virtually the lone bright spot in those years, the election of Alf Landon as governor of Kansas, Spangler helped lead a grassroots organizing cam paign. He established a series of Grass Roots Clubs and helped revitalize and encourage young Republican and women's organizations. During the presidential campaign of 1936, Spangler served as RNC executive vice-chairman for headquarters operations, and in the late 1930s played a leading role in advancing the cause of a vital and unified national party structure. With the outbreak of World War II, Spangler found himself in the middle of the Republican Party's divisions. After Wendell Willkie's defeat in the presidential election in 1940, the party remained clearly divided between two factions–a generally more isolationist "old guard" and those in the party who favored various degrees of internationalism. In addition, some in the party thought Willkie supporters were not being sufficiently attached to the party. Finally, there was the effort to create an ongoing institutionalized RNC organizational structure, distinct from the congressional apparatus and the party's presidential candidates. With the resignation of RNC chair Joseph W. Martin Jr. in late 1942, Spangler ascended to the chairmanship as a solid party man acceptable to all of the various factions. Spangler's selection was seen as a compromise between Willkie supporters and the old guard, led by Senator Robert Taft of Ohio. Spangler's party loyalty and social conservatism made him a favorite of the old guard, while his cautious internationalism made him acceptable to Willkie supporters. His choice, however, also represented a victory for the party's emerging star, New York Governor Thomas E. Dewey. Spangler had explored trying to deliver the Iowa delegation for Dewey in 1940 and had remained a correspondent of the governor. Internal debates over postwar policy posed the greatest immediate challenge for Chairman Spangler. Pushed by continued pressure from Willkie supporters and internationalists, Spangler formed the RNC Post-War Advisory Council to help shape the party's policy positions. He presided over the conference held by the council on Mackinac Island, Michigan, in September 1943. He worked closely behind the scenes with Dewey, and as a result the governor gained more influence within the party organization. The conference foreign policy declaration embraced a cautious internationalism favored by Dewey. The domestic policy declaration represented a closer working relationship between Dewey and the party old guard. It also was part of an increasingly anti-New Deal trend by the RNC during Spangler's chairmanship. Spangler presided over the 1944 convention that nominated Dewey and worked behind the scenes to ensure that Willkie was excluded from any role. Herbert Brownell replaced Spangler as chairman of the RNC in 1944. Spangler then became general counsel. For the rest of his life, Spangler remained a party loyalist. He continued as a member of the national committee until 1952 and was a prominent supporter of Senator Taft's efforts to secure the GOP presidential nomination. Even after his retirement from Iowa to Oregon, Spangler continued his interest in partisan politics. During Democratic Senator Wayne Morse's reelection campaign in 1962, Spangler wrote a book titled The Record of Wayne Morse in which he attacked the senator for being soft on Communism and for switching from the Republican Party. Although thousands of copies of the work were distributed, Morse was easily reelected. Spangler died in Oregon at age 86. Sources Spangler's papers are in the University of Oregon Library, Eugene.

| 7082 | Spouses : Marcus Antonius Creticus & Publius Cornelius Lentulus Sura Children : . Antonia . Marcus Antonius . Gaius Antonius . Lucius Antonius Parents : Lucius Julius Caesar (father) & Fulvia (mother) Julia (104 – after 39 BC) (sometimes also called "Julia Antonia" to distinguish her from other Juliae) was the mother of the triumvir general Mark Antony. She was the daughter of Lucius Julius Caesar (the consul of 90 BC) and Fulvia. She and her brother Lucius Julius Caesar (who was consul in 64 BC) were born and raised in Rome. Julia was a third-cousin of Julius Caesar (their great-grandparents Gaius and Sextus Julius Caesar were siblings). Julia married Marcus Antonius Creticus, a man of a senatorial family. Their sons were the triumvir Mark Antony, Gaius Antonius and Lucius Antonius. Because of their kinship through her, Gaius Julius Caesar was obliged to promote the political careers of her sons, despite his distaste for their father and his generally low opinion of their abilities. After Julia's first husband died about 70 BC, she married Publius Cornelius Lentulus Sura, a politician who in 63 BC was involved in the Catilinarian conspiracy and was executed on the orders of Cicero. Plutarch describes her as one of "most nobly born and admirable women of her time". The following clause from Plutarch describes her relationship with her first husband: His father was Antony, surnamed of Crete, not very famous or distinguished in public life, but a worthy good man, and particularly remarkable for his liberality, as may appear from a single example. He was not very rich, and was for that reason checked in the exercise of his good nature by his wife. A friend that stood in need of money came to borrow of him. Money he had none, but he bade a servant bring him water in a silver basin, with which, when it was brought, he wetted his face, as if he meant to shave, and, sending away the servant upon another errand, gave his friend the basin, desiring him to turn it to his purpose. And when there was afterwards a great inquiry for it in the house, and his wife was in a very ill humour, and was going to put the servants one by one to the search, he acknowledged what he had done, and begged her pardon. — Plutarch, Antony 1 Elsewhere Plutarch illustrates her character with an episode from the proscription of 43 BC, during the Second Triumvirate: His uncle, Lucius Caesar, being closely pursued, took refuge with his sister, who, when the murderers had broken into her house and were pressing into her chamber, met them at the door, and spreading out hands, cried out several times. "You shall not kill Lucius Caesar till you first dispatch me who gave your general his birth!" and in this manner she succeeded in getting her brother out of the way, and saving his life. — Plutarch, Antony 20 During the Perusine War (modern Perugia) between 41 BC-40 BC, Julia left Rome, although Octavian (future Roman Emperor Augustus) treated her with kindness. She never trusted Sextus Pompeius. When Sextus Pompeius was in Sicily, Julia had sent to Greece for Antony, a distinguished escort and convoy of triremes. After the reconciliation of the triumvirs, Julia returned with Antony to Italy in 39 BC and was probably present at the meeting with Sextus Pompeius at Misenum. | Julia Antonia Caesaria (I34090)
