Individuals : St Arnulf BISHOP
From Wikipedia
Arnulf was born to an important Frankish family near Nancy in Lorraine around 582.[3] The family owned vast domains between the Mosel and Meuse rivers.[4] As an adolescent, he was called to the Merovingian court of king Theudebert II (595-612) of Austrasia[5] where he was educated by Gondulf of Provence.[3] Arnulf was later sent to serve as dux at the Schelde.
Arnulf gave distinguished service at the Austrasian court under Theudebert II. He distinguished himself both as a military commander and in the civil administration; at one time he had under his care six distinct provinces.[5] Arnulf was married ca 596 to a noblewoman whom later sources give the name of Dode or Doda, (born ca 584). Chlodulf of Metz was their oldest son, but more important is his second son Ansegisel, who married Begga daughter of Pepin I, Pepin of Landen. Arnulf is thus the male-line grandfather of Pepin of Herstal, great-grandfather of Charles Martel and 3rd great-grandfather of Charlemagne.
The rule of Austrasia came into the hands of Brunhilda, the grandmother of Theudebert, who ruled also in Burgundy in the name of her great-grandchildren. In 613 Arnulf joined his politics with Pepin of Landen and led the opposition of Frankish nobles against Queen Brunhilda. The revolt led to her overthrow, torture, and eventual execution, and the subsequent reunification of Frankish lands under Chlothachar II.
He and his friend Romaricus, likewise an officer of the court, planned to make a pilgrimage to the Abbey of Lérins.[5] Chlothachar, who appreciated Arnulf's administrative skills, offered him the vacant see of Metz, the capital of the Autrasian kingdom. His wife took the veil as a nun in a convent at Treves, and Arnulf saw it as a sign of God and became a priest and bishop afterwards.[6]Arnulf continued to serve as the king's steward and courtier.[4]
Chlothachar later made his son Dagobert I king of Austrasia, which he ruled with the help of his adviser Arnulf. Pepin of Landen, became the Mayor of the Palace. In 624 Pepin and Arnulf encouraged Dagobert in the murder of Chrodoald, an important leader of the Frankish Agilolfings family.
During his career he was attracted to religious life, and he retired to become a monk. He retired around 628 to a hermitage at a mountain site in his domains in the Vosges. His friend Romaric, whose parents had been killed by Brunhilda, had preceded him to the mountains around 613, and together with Amatus had already established Remiremont Abbey there. After the death of Chlothachar in 629, Arnulf settled near Habendum, where he died some time between 643 and 647. He was buried at Remiremont.[4]
Arnulf was canonized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church. In iconography he is portrayed with a pastoral staff in his hand.

742?-814, emperor of the West (800-814), Carolingian king of the Franks
(768-814). The son of PEPIN THE SHORT, he consolidated his rule in his
own kingdom, invaded Italy in support of the pope, and in 774 was crowned
king of the Lombards. He took NE Spain from the MOORS (778) and annexed
Bavaria (788). After a long struggle (772-804) he subjugated and
Christianized the Saxons. In 800 he restored LEO III to the papacy and
was crowned emperor by him on Christmas Day, thus laying the basis for
the HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE and finalizing the split between the Byzantine and
Roman empires. Charlemagne ruled through a highly efficient
administrative system. He codified the law in his various dominions, and
his court at AACHEN was the center for an intellectual and artistic
renaissance. The end of his reign was troubled by raids by the NORSEMEN.
His son, LOUIS I, was named co-emperor in 813 and succeeded on his
father's death. Charlemagne's legend soon enhanced and distorted his
actual achievements, and he became the central figure of a medieval
romance cycle.

Probably the most important date in British history is 1066, the date of
William's victory at the Battle of Hastings.
William I ended the reign of the Danes when, in 1069, after laying seige
to the town of York, a group of Viking warriors fell to the swords of the
Norman Army.
William, kings of England. William I or William the Conqueror, 1027?-1087
(r.1066-1087), was the illegitimate son of Robert I, duke of Normandy,
and succeeded to the dukedom in 1035. While visiting (1051) England, he
was probably named by his cousin EDWARD THE CONFESSOR as successor to the
throne, and in 1064 he extracted a promise of support from HAROLD, then
earl of WESSEX. In 1066, hearing that Harold had been crowned king of
England, William raised an army and crossed the Channel. He defeated and
slew Harold at HASTINGS and was crowned king. William immediately built
castles and harshly put down the rebellions that broke out; by 1072 the
military part of the NORMAN CONQUEST was virtually complete. He
substituted foreign prelates for many English bishops, and land titles
were redistributed on a feudal basis (see FEUDALISM) to his Norman
followers. After 1075 he dealt frequently with continental quarrels.
William ordered a survey (1085-86) of England, the results of which were
compiled as the DOOMSDAY BOOK. He was one of the greatest English
monarchs and a pivotal figure in European history. His son Robert II
succeeded him in Normandy, while another son, William II or William
Rufus, d. 1100 (r.1087-1100), succeeded him in England. William II had
utter contempt for the English church and extorted large sums of money
from it. He occupied Normandy when Robert II left on a crusade, and
gained control (1097) of the Scottish throne. He was killed while
hunting, and his death may not have been an accident. His brother HENRY I
succeeded him.

----------
William the Conqueror was the illegitimate son of Robert I, duke of
Normandy, and Herleva, daughter of a wealthy Falasian; many contemporary
writers referred to him as "William the Bastard". Robert died in 1035
while traveling through Asia Minor, and the young William was named Duke
of Normandy. He married Mathilda, daughter of Count Baldwin of Flanders,
who bore him at least nine children, four of which were boys.
Edward the Confessor, in an effort to gain Norman support while fighting
with his father-in-law, Earl Godwin, had promised the throne to William
the Confessor in 1051. By 1066, however, Edward had reconciled with
Godwin, and on his deathbed and named the Earl's son Harold as successor
to the crown. William felt cheated and immediately prepared to invade,
insisting that Harold had sworn allegiance to his accession in 1064. He
was prepared for battle in August of 1066, but the winds were against him
throughout August and most of September, prohibiting he and his troops
from crossing the English Channel. This turned out to be an advantage,
however, as Harold Hardrada, the King of Norway, invaded England and met
Harold Godwinson's forces at Stamford Bridge on September 25, 1066.
Godwinson emerged victorious, but two days after the battle, William was
able to land unopposed at Pevensey and spent the next two weeks pillaging
the area and strengthening his position on the beachhead. The victorious
Harold, in an attempt to solidify his kingship, took the fight to William
and the Normans on October 14, 1066 at Hastings. Harold and his brothers
died fighting in the Hastings battle, removing any further organized
resistance to the Normans. The earls and bishops of the Witan hesitated
in supporting William, but soon submitted and crowned him William I on
Christmas Day 1066.
The kingdom was immediately besieged by minor uprisings, each one
individually crushed by the Normans, until the whole of England was
conquered and united in 1071. William punished rebels by confiscating
their land and giving it to Normans. The Domesday Book was commissioned
in 1085 as a survey of land ownership to assess property and establish a
tax base; within the regions covered by the Domesday survey, only two
native English landowners still held their land. All landowners were
summoned to pay homage to William in 1086. William imported an Italian,
Lanfranc, to take the position of Archbishop of Canterbury; Lanfranc
reorganized the English Church, establishing separate Church courts to
deal with infractions of Canon law.
William was a feudal vassal of the king of France (a situation destined
to cause great consternation between England and France), and constantly
found himself at odds with King Philip. In a siege on the town of Mantes
in 1087 he was injured, and he died from complications of the wound on
September 9. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle gave a favorable review of
William's twenty-one year reign, but added, "His anxiety for money is the
only thing on which he can deservedly be blamed; ... he would say and do
some things and indeed almost anything ... where the hope of money
allured him." He was certainly cruel by modern standards, and exacted a
high toll from his subjects, but he laid the foundation for the building
of English history.

Individuals : Russell MOON
For this child, his birth certificate shows that he was to be named Russell, but the name appears with two lines through it, hence for purposes of indentification, we are referring to this child as "crossed off Russell". The birth order that appears on this certificate is - Number in order of birth - 5, Number of children born to this mother and now living - 5.However, on the next child's (Belle) birth certificate, the number in order of birth is 6, number of children living - 5, indicating that this child did not live.
There is question about a Melvin Amos Moon, who was embalmed on May 13, 1915. Given the dates of these two events, we are concluding that this child is indeed Melvin Amos, though we have yet to see anything with this name on it. We have sent for the documents, but have yet to receive them (July 1997).
Virginia Atwater of Stephentown New York provided the information with the name of Melvin Amos Moon being embalmed on May 15. No death certificate for this child was found in the Stephentown records, but the birth certificate for "crossed off Russell" was. We don't know where the name Melvin Amos came from.
