  • Pierre L'enfant and Benjamin Banneker
    www.amatterofmind.us From the desk of Pierre Beaudry Page 1 of 23 PIERRE L’ENFANT AND BENJAMIN BANNEKER: THE MANIFEST DESTINY OF WASHINGTON D.C. by Pierre Beaudry, January 5, 2001 INTRODUCTION: THE GRAND DESIGN OF MANIFEST DESTINY Some people said that the design for the city of Washington D.C. came from the heavens, that Pierre L’Enfant determined the location of the House of Congress, and the House of the President, in accordance with the stars, and that such an orientation was in concordance with the design of the MANIFEST DESTINY, which had inspired George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Alexander Hamilton. This is all true. Pierre L’Enfant, Andrew Ellicott, and Benjamin Banneker, reached to the heavens for their inalienable rights, and executed these Great Federal Improvements by means of which the Capital City of the United States was made to become, in the small, the historical microcosm of the nation as a whole. This report, will attempt to revive the sublime character of this enterprise, imposing by the greatness of its heroic effort, and yet humbling by the goodness and simplicity of its purpose. In all events, it is clear that Washington DC, was meant to become the first Capital city of the world, whose explicit function was to express the true measure of what can be accomplished with the genius of a people who is persistent in the fight for the freedom of all peoples, on the shores of America, as anywhere else in the world. There is no doubt that such a design required to be secured within the borders of history, and immortalized, for all centuries to come, by the creation, on this continent, of an entirely new city to be built, from the ground up; a city of “magnificent distances”, that would reflect, in spiritual and physical space-time, an old and revolutionary idea that could not be implemented on the old continent.

It begins with the Indian quarries and village sites and the first exploration by white men under the leadership of Captain John Smith in 1608' and proceeds down through the pioneer struggles in the wilder- ness and the birth of our Nation, through three and a half centuries of growth and achievement. Arlington's homes symbol- ize the lives of those who dwelt in them and helped mold our national destiny. t It F oundations o f " Abin g don" On the knoll above National Airport are the foundations and chimney fragments of "ABINGDON", the house either acquired or built by Gerard Alexander on land inherited in 1735.

    John Van Tuyl - the Man1 and the Building of Fort Van Tyle W. Kent Van Tyle Contact: [email protected] 8/13/2020 John Van Tuyl – frontiersman, patriot, farmer and father John Van Tuyl, grandson of Isaac Van Tuyl and Sarah Lakerman of Staten Island, was born about 1740-45 in either Somerset or Morris County, NJ, likely the third of four brothers (Isaac, Arthur, John and Abraham). He grew up on the New Jersey frontier in the farming family of his father John Sr, likely in the Roxbury area of Morris County.2 As a youth he was undoubtedly influenced by the companionship of his older brother and avid frontiersman Isaac, about 5-7 years his senior, who served in 1757 during the French and Indian War in the Morris County, NJ militia3 and during the Revolution under Captain JR Dewitt of Mamakating in the Ulster County, NY militia.4 Likely an experienced hunter, after his marriage to Catherine (Terwilliger) Westfall in Sussex Co, NJ in 1761, Isaac supplemented his family income by collecting wolf bounties5, 49 pounds sterling for 14 wolves in 1768. John Sr, his sister Gertrude and her husband John Courson, followed the same migration path from Staten Island, through Somerest and Morris counties of New Jersey into the northwest New Jersey frontier with Gertrude and John Courson settling in Sussex Co, NJ in the 1760s.6 It is unclear why John Van Tuyl and his father John Sr elected to settle in Greenville, NY sometime in the decade prior to the Revolutionary War. The Neversink and Wallkill river valleys provided much more fertile farm land than the hilly, rocky soil of Greenville; however by the decade before the Revolutionary War, these more desirable areas had been settled and were being actively farmed.
