Perceval, the war commissioner.
When the Causses, top jacobin printers, are placed alongside the jacobin "Saint Jacques" Cochin dynasty with their Zante cabalistic blazon, then their "conservative roman catholic-royalist" image, adopted later on (post 1835) by the Cochin family, looses its lustre.
Examining next the orientalists de Perceval we note that J.J.Antoine Caussin de Perceval (ex keeper of manuscripts collection of Luis XVI at the royal library ) is functioning by 1806 as "Professeur au College de France and ...entra en 1809 à l'Institut (Académie des inscriptions) whereas his son Armand Pierre ....en 1814, il se rend à Constantinople en tant qu'élève interprète...
They are however not the only Percevals serving Napoleon's regime:
A third "Perceval" appears in 1813 serving directly under a war hardened general Mortier, Marshal of the Empire then, as one of his four "war commisioners first class".
http://www.napoleon-series.org/milit...ilaire13c.html
His full identity is not given in this site and was also not found in any other either but, as he is essential for the succesfull conclusion of this story, we note thhe following:
As previously stated, all Hydra records pointers (from relevant published study) lead to the conclusion that the hydrian "Cochini" (now including the Kiosses-Causses as well) are the same family as the Caussin de Percevals:
Reexamining this study we find Anastasy Cochini's presence (1797-1833) in Hydra's archive to be suddenly interrupted in 1812 whereas by 1816 he is declared dead by his two sons, Yanni and Lazarus. He reappears on local records however as Anastasy "Orlov" in 1822.
More "pointers" of published study, including Bouboulina's visit to Constantinople in 1815 as well as the military mobilisation of the family thereafter lead to the conclusion that "greek" Anastasy IS the french war commissioner.
Worth noting that one of Anastasy Perceval's fellow-commissioners was De LaNeuville, a familiar name in the last British-American war ending 1815:
Alexander V. LaNeuville was Adjutant. and Inspector General of Governor Claiborne's Staff] "down south":
http://www.hnoc.org/BNO/william_cook.htm
Thus the conclusion is reached that the family maintained their good relations to both jacobin as well as democratic and napoleonic France, that Anastasy, officialy implementing Napoleon's eastern policy after 1813 , was head of all family branches (Cochin, Caussin, Causse etc) and that their participation in the greek war for independence was mainly a byproduct of the anglofrench war history, american diplomacy at the time (1812-1827) being in a "transcendental" state!
As such, the presence of the "family papyri library" in the hands of Anastasy and his son Yanni is well justified.
THE next question is: Why did Yanni decide to offload to William of Orange their monumental "Αβραχάς-Βάλσαμος-book of Moses" papyrus early 1828 while aware of the marriage of his Cochin Zante cousins to a Balsamo?
Further to his great sense of humor, did he have another reason as well?
That's how and when it happened:
-October 1827: Ibrahim's fleet is destroyed at Navarino.
-January 1828: Fortress Grambusa surrenders after bombardment by british fleet..
-April 1828, consul Jean d'Anastasy's papyri are sold to Leyden
Jingle-bells!
What was the name of John "Allan's" second wife?
Why, Ingram of course, of Mercer Co, KY, like the Allens!
Else, why would her family name be today ommited from all "authorative sources" who insist on "Allan" but are unable to explain why and how a Mr John Henry Ingram "undertook" on his own to treat dear Edgar like a "Mercer" commodity later-on collecting all "evidence" and publishing next his Memoirs, unable to document his heroe's St Petersburg's presence...
(EUGENE SCHUYLER, St. Petersburg, Russia, ALS to INGRAM 1874 February 2. 1 p. The Secretary of the U. S. Legation reports that a search of the Legation papers from 1820 to 1830 reveals no case involving Edgar A. Poe .
EUGENE SCHUYLER, St. Petersburg, Russia, ALS to INGRAM 1874 February 6. 1 p. The books of the American Consulate have been searched and no record found of Edgar A. Poe having been detained in Russia . )
...failing to research the hows and whys of his strange (1823-1827) US absence and later military behaviour...
He appears to have wandered about for some time, and by some means or the other succeeded in getting a little volume of poems printed “for private circulation only.” This was towards the end of 1827, when he was nearing nineteen. Doubtless Poe expected to dispose of his volume by subscription among his friends, but copies did not go off, and ultimately the book was suppressed, and the remainder of the edition, for “reasons of a private nature,” destroyed.
What happened to the young poet, and how he contrived to exist for the next year or so, is a mystery still unsolved. It has always been believed that he found his way to Europe and met with some curious adventures there, and Poe himself certainly alleged that such was the case. Numbers of mythical stories have been invented to account for this chasm in the poet’s life, and most of them self-evidently fabulous.
In March, 1834, Mr. Allan died, and if our poet had maintained any hopes of further assistance from him, all doubt was settled by the will, by which the whole property of the deceased was left to his second wife and her three sons. Poe was not named. (Memoir Of Edgar Allan Poe by John H. Ingram)

and deciding what was "worth" publishing and what "must be burned"
In the month of May 1844, Josiah Quincy and Charles Adams visited Nauvoo and viewed the Egyptian mummies and talked to Joseph Smith about the records...
..... the mummies and asked about the age of the manuscripts obtained with them it is clear that Joseph Smith and the early Mormons represented the Book of Abraham to have been penned by the very hand of Abraham himself. After Smith's death in June 1844, Franklin D. Richards published a pamphlet in July 1851, entitled, The Pearl of Great Price. In this publication was printed the little Book of Abraham, together with the three facsimile illustrations.

TRULY-and most INTIMATELY-YOURS!
Part I
Websearching for the identity of Rev John Caroll's correspondent Rev John Causse leads us to back to Benjamin Franklin who, apparently, did not at all miss his "Cochin etc" Paris friends and intimate associates because, as soon as he set foot on american soil, he was in touch with them again!
Rev John Causse, as per Biographical Annals of Lancaster County, Pa., Beers, 1903, p. 216, is:
JOHN BAPTISTE CAUSSE. In 1787 the priest in charge of the Catholic Church in Lancaster was John Baptiste Causse, a Recollet Franciscan, known in the order as Father Fidenteaieus. He had been stationed at Lancaster in 1785, having come there from near Philadelphia, presumably Mt. Airy. He was a man of considerable ability and took a great interest in educational matters, and in 1787, when the "German Charity School," subsequently Franklin College, was founded, he was one of its first trustees, his name appearing as such on the minutes of the Board. He became rebellious, however, against Bishop Carroll, and in 1791 he was formally excommunicated by that Bishop, being the first Catholic clergyman in the United States to be excommunicated. In 1789 he had walked from Lancaster to where St. Vincent's Abbey is located on the Alleghany mountains and purchased the land upon which that abbey is located for five shillings.
"Recollet" is not to be found in our concise Oxford dictionary but the word obviously derives from "recollect": ie one who "succeed to remembering, recall to mind"...etc.
As per Franklin College Records......
1787 (March 10): Pennsylvania legislature grants charter and act of incorporation for "Franklin College".....Trustees nominated in the charter include: four signers of the Declaration of Independence, three members of the Constitutional Convention, and seven officers of the Revolutionary War.
.....
1787 (October): Franklin College is divided into the German Department with advanced students, and the English Department with high school and college students.
...............
1790: The federal constitution is ratified. Benjamin Franklin is dead at the age of eighty-four. George Washington is president of the United States, and the new nation is struggling with the debts of war. Many of the original Philadelphia sponsors have lost interest in the new college. The Lutheran and Reformed churches are also without money, and financial support for the college nearly disappears.
Thus father John B.Causse kept his "recollet jesuit" status while Franklin was alive but lost it immediately after his death.
Was he perhaps of german descend, as german "Causse" websites wants us to believe (failing though to claim him) or was he a "Cozine-Cosine-Cozyntsen" and what not, dutchman, (also disowned by the "Cozine genealogy" site)?
To answer this rather "ethnicaly delicate" question, one has to visit Pittsburg, Ohio, close to Luisville, the town names indicatory of the anglofrench struggle that determined father Causse's "alleghanic" allegiances, alienating aliances and allegoric aliases.
Alleluia!
(Heb: Halleluyah=praise ye Yehovah but the word derives form greek "allos"-other, hence allergy, allopathy etc!)
Epiphany II: Jorge and the Hercules.
For the first time eversince he left the isle two centuries ago, Jorge, standing in front of the Museum next to the port his brazen eyes facing the sea, is finally smiling under his big moustache, so say at least his friends, the mules, Hydra's only means of transport, stationed before him.
Eversince he was presented to Hydra by Evita Peron in 1947 Jorge, suffering silently the indifferent tourists and the ignorant mule guides, had to wait till 2005 for his "official" recognition and, this here very thread, for his story to be made public.
Simply "Jorge", molded in the bronze, that's what they decided to call him, back then in Argentina when Evita ordered his statue, a bust, be made to commemorate the "other" greek, the hydrian, who, together with Samuel Spyrou from Lesvos, arrived under "mysterious" conditions in Argentina, sometime in 1813 and, fighting alongside William Brown, liberated Argentina of its spanish origins and Bourbon links.
When the bust arrived in Hydra, the town council decided his name was really Nicolas George Colmaniati, placed a relevant plate on top and infuriated him even more.
The Colmaniati= Nicolo Cochini link already made by 2000, it was only thanks to the argentinian soccer star, Fabrizio Coloccini who, quite unconventionaly from a historians perspective, finally came, via the TV the 16th of June 2005 while playing with "squadra Milan", to the rescue of his greatgrandfather, reconfirming and crosschecking this, imposiible for an argentinian, name to the undersigned who then advised Hydra authorities that "their Nicolas-Jorge" was "our" Giorgio, son of Nicolo Cochini, the 1790 corsair of previous posts.
Serving 1813-14 as flag officer of the flagship Hercules and captain of the Trinidad under the irishman, Jorge was next made a squadron leader in the war against Brazil 1825-1828 and then lived and died in Argentina, quite poor, the 24th August, 1866, 82 years old. (Hydra publications, 1937-1951, from Argentine navy records).
"Scholarly authorities" may now also take notice of the following:
..the Brown family emigrated to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the United States, about 1786... One morning while wandering along the banks of the Delaware River, (William) he met the Captain of a ship then moored in port. The Captain enquired if he wanted employment and Brown answered yes. The Captain then and there engaged him as a cabin boy, thereby setting him on the naval promotion ladder, where he worked his way to the captaincy of a Merchant vessel. (http://william-brown.brainsip.com/)
.....the russian build and heavily equipped (64 guns for a merchanman!!) "Hercules" (http://www.celinaferreyra.com.ar/ing.../historias.htm )....
....the presence of "flagofficer Jorge" in such critical times onboard such a vessel on her way to such a delicate mission...
....after the "discovery" of the Cozine US family....their relations to "Monrovians" in general, the Roozevelts....
Nicholas Roosevelt of a family later famous, built a steamboat which in 1811 ran from Pittsburgh clear through to New Orleans and back.. http://amstd.spb.ru/Library/kom/ch9_11.htm...
...and the Vanderbilts (see Commodore-Nicaragua etc ) in particular....
...the members of the club, that organised-and benefited from-the greek frigates fiasco, still "unknown"....
....the whole matter pointing to the "Cozine" participation in the "Boston tea party"....
..anyhow....
As at the time his uncle Anastasy "de Perceval" was serving in the french war ministry, captain Jorge certainly brought Hercules from Russia to New York-Boston where...
In December 1813, the Minister of War Juan Larrea signed an agreement with Boston-born Guillermo Pío White (Pedro Lezica's partner), by which the latter was to provide the means for a naval squad that could ensure success against the Spanish naval forces.John Goodfellow's and William P. White's signatures on the original pay bill. John Goodfellow sold the Hercules, her cargo (ninety tons of salt and sixty tons of charcoal), as well as her Russian papers....Most likely, the Hercules arrived in Buenos Aires in about 1813 although there are no documents availing this.
As such the 1838 marriage of our George Washington Cozean, son of John Roosevelt Cozine to Eliza Jane White on 1838. Eliza was born about 1820. (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb....qwg09.htm#449)....
....calls for further examination of the matter by those more concerned than yours-most intimately-truly, amply rewarded by Jorge's first smile.
