VERY TALL at the time, 6 feet 4 inch. Take a look at many photos of him with others. He always stand out very tall, even U.S. Grant (5f 8in) Henry 8th was very tall, about 6 ft 3, considered a giant. His grandfather was 6ft 4 inch, tallest of the English monarchs. Prince Charles is only 5 ft 11 in tall. Duke of Cambridge is now 6ft 3 Jamestown settlers, were average 5ft 6 and the Powhatan Indians were way over 6 feet tall.

I'm fairly sure that if you had asked the British of the day they would say that "we" had provoked the war. They were, after all, only looking for their own deserters. All things are relative. England was still smarting from our revolution. Any excuse would do. Histories do not always tell it all. Depends on how the writer wants to slant it. Who "discovered" America kind of depends. Who was the first European [ if you consider Scandinavia a part of Europe] would probably be Leif Ericson. If you don't there's the Irish priest, I can't remember his name. Then you might consider Columbus, although he didn't really. He mostly discovered the islands of the Caribbean. There are some that say Europeans [ Brits, Celts ] made the voyage during the ice age by following the ice cap across the north Atlantic. Speculation runs that some of the fairer skinned Native Americans along the east coast are their descendent's. The first one period would be some unknown Siberian. then you have th Polynesians that most likely reached South America, and some say the region around Baja/southern California. THEN, you have some that speculate that there was a Chinese landing in southern California. So, who DID "discover" America?

that is heck of a misconception! There were not many boys. Mainly men - and they were short in height! Mostly between 4 and 5 feet tal back in those days. in 1607, Jamestown Colony - the ship had lower ceilings and smaller bed - because the men were between 3.5 and 4.5 feet tall. Reviewing of Civil War records, show the average height of soldiers and sailors were less than 5.5 feet tall. We're growing taller than before. David S.

Here's something that might be of interest. By Michael J. Leclerc Monday, June 18, marks the two-hundredth anniversary of the start of the War of 1812. The bicentennial is being marked with much fanfare in Washington and elsewhere around the country. The War of 1812 was the first time the United States officially declared war (although the Quasi-War with France and the first Barbary War preceded it, there were no official declarations of war in those instances). The War of 1812 was vehemently opposed by the New England states, who feared the damage that would come to their merchant fleets. Indeed, the War of 1812 had more official political opposition than any other war through the end of the twentieth, including the Vietnam War. Despite this, and the fact that our national anthem was written at the Battle of Baltimore near the end of the war, Americans don’t know much about it. One of the major problems leading to the war was Britain’s attacks on U.S. ships. The Royal Navy would board American ships, ostensibly looking for escaped British sailors. In reality, they would look for any able seaman and impress him into the Royal Navy. Lists of these impressed seamen can be found at NARA. Because of this problem, Congress approved the issuing of Seamen’s Protection Certificates, which can also be helpful. The U.S. Navy played a key role in the War of 1812. Because of this, many of the males who served during the war were younger. Anyone who has visited U.S.S. Constitution in Boston knows that ships of that era had small lower decks. Boys were able to scramble around these smaller spaces more quickly than grown adults. Keep this in mind as you examine your family for people who might have served during the war. Males ranging in age from 12 to their 20s are good candidates to have served. Many of the veterans received bounty land. Until 1842, most of this land was within the present-day boundaries of Illinois, Missouri, and Arkansas. If you have ancestors who appeared in those areas before 1850, check to see if they received bounty land. The land grants may give you further clues as to where your ancestor originally came from. The National Archives has a page dedicated to resources to help you research your War of 1812 ancestors. For those of you who can get to Boston, I strongly recommend a visit to U.S.S.

Very good summary of the war of 1812 Billie. I did not learn that America had actually declared war on England until I discovered the facts in a university history class. So in high school it assumed without saying that England had declared war on America. So much to say about high school history.....and who was the person who first discovered America.

I can see where it might be, but I don't think it is, since the only volunteers are for Wisconsin that I found. If there were a bunch of volunteers for the east coast of North Carolina, then I would probably be more suspect.

Do I have to say who I think it might be?

I spent 2hrs. last night trying to figure out where the spam file was on my computer, that someone thought was cute, I finally figured out that it was in a bookmark on the web. I deleted 3 of them today. The spam was turning up in all web pages that were in anything that was in the bookmarks. I had the states table of TTTP bookmarked and when I would open that table and click on a state then the spam would show up. Checked it today and it was back to normal. What a mess. -----Original Message----- From: tttp-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:tttp-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of James Albro Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 8:13 PM To: tttp@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [TTTP] Bad news There is a lot of that going around.
