would you try a spooky quiz Pick a number of the times in
a week you would like to have
chocolate between 1&10
Multiply this number by 2
add 5
multiply by 50
It you have had your birthday
this year add 1758 if not had
your birthday this year yet
add 1757
Now subtract the year in which
you were born (ie 1962)
You now have a three digit
number .
look at the numbers the first
number is how many times you
want chocolate and the other
two numbers are your age ,
Spooky or clever.

What was the fate of Jagat In the Battle of Plashey on
23rd June,1757, on the bank of
Vagirathi river near
Murshidabad, between force led
by Nawab Siraj-ud-Dowla and
british force led by Lord
Cllive. 50000 man force aginst
5000 man force. Victory by
Nawab was a question of time
only. But army commander Mir
Muhammad Zafar Ali Khanm,
having a secretly agreed pact
with Lord Clive, didnot follow
Nawab's order to strike.
Instead, he stood and watched
and made around 45000 infantry
and cavalry person to stand
inert. So Nawab conceded
inevitable defeat and fled
from war-ground. So Bengal,
Orissa, Bihar came and
eventually whole Indian
Subcontinent came under
British rule for next 200
years. We know the
collaborators that acted
against the interest of their
own country were Mahtab Chand
(Banker), Yaar Latif (Army
Commander), Umi
Chand(treasury), Mir
Zafar(Army commander).
What were their rewards? How
happily they passed their rest
of lives?

There are 15 entries for a Stephen Powell who marries a Nancy Bartlett on http://worldconnect.genealogy. rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi but they all have him born 1774 or 1787. You could do them a valuable service if you'd send them your sources. It looks to me like there are two conflicting reports of his birth date and everyone copied one or the other. I can't tell who, though. |
