The story follows a Medjay named Bayek, and explores the origins of the centuries-long conflict between the Brotherhood of Assassins, who fight for peace by promoting liberty, and The Order of the Ancients—forerunners to the Templar Order—who desire peace through the forced imposition of order.

Origin: France. Circa: 1920. Period: 20th Century. Stunning 18 karat white gold French cut sapphire and diamond ring from the Art Deco era, France. This ring is a wonderful example of craftsmanship. It has a central oval sapphire that is 4mm x 6mm, and is a natural gemstone. It has a beautiful deep blue color, as do all the other sapphires. There are a total of 32 sapphires on the top of the ring, all which are French cut and calibrated, and cut to fit the curve of the ring. There are 6 tiny sapphires on the band of the ring, surrounded by a cluster of pave set diamonds.The gemstones descend in size as they orbit around the central oval sapphire. There are 16 single cut diamonds around the central sapphire, 4 additional diamonds accenting the edges of the ring design, and then the small pave clusters. Shop@ The HighBoy.
Origin of Bread and Cheese Creek (the first time the stream appears above ground according to U.S. Topography maps). Note the unusual color of the water, it also has an unusual odor similar to sewage.

The Origins of Michigan
The Toledo War
The Great Upper Penninsula
There’s no denying that Michigan has a fairly unique look. While most of the state makes sense from a map-making perspective, there’s still the Upper Penninsula for which you must account. Understanding how Michigan got the Upper Penninsula is a great way to learn a little bit more about Michigan’s amazing history.
The Origins of Michigan
The territory that would someday become Michigan did not actually become part of the country until the end of the Revolutionary War. Ceded to the country as part of the Treaty of Paris in 1783, the initial ‘Michigan Territory’ actually only consisted of the Lower Penninsula. It took time for Britain to give up its claims to the Upper Penninsula, as the area was particularly rich in furs.
By 1819, though, the Upper Penninsula became part of the greater Michigan territory. This territory was far larger than the modern day state, though, also encompassing Wisconsin and even parts of Minnesota. When Michigan finally applied to become a state in the 1830s, it would bring in none of the new territory – not even the Upper Penninsula.
The Toledo War
One of the problems with the early United States is that many people didn’t understand the boundaries between territories all that well. One of the major areas of contention was between Ohio and Michigan, concerning the area on the border of the two states. When Michigan applied to become a state, it tried to add the disputed territory.
The war between Ohio and Michigan wasn’t much of a war. The two states deployed militias on either side of the disputed territory, but no one was ever killed. In fact, the only battle ended with shots being fired into the air and everyone going home.
In the end, a compromise was reached. Ohio got the so-called Toledo strip, while Michigan got the Upper Penninsula. In December of 1836, members of Michigan’s legislature agreed to the deal and Michigan assumed the shape that we know and love today.
The Great Upper Penninsula
At the time, most people thought that Michigan was getting the short end of the stick when it came to the deal. After all, the Upper Penninsula was sparsely inhabited, didn’t have great farmland, and much of the fur trade had died off.
Of course, that was before anyone found the copper and iron deposits there. Once the deposits were discovered, it was roundly believed that Michigan was the real winner of the Toledo War. Thanks to the Upper Penninsula, Michigan would get a head start on the industrial development that would lead to the state’s golden age.
Michigan’s history has led to the creation of an unusually-shaped, if still amazing, state. It’s amazing to think that none of this would have happened had either Michigan or Ohio actually understood how to read map boundaries correctly, but in the end, the compromise worked out in Michigan’s favor and helped to create the state as its known today.
One of the best ways to celebrate Michigan’s unique history with collectibles and apparel that can remind you of the state. If you want to show off your love for Michigan – and for the Upper Penninsula – make sure to go online and buy the coolest Michigan apparel at Livnfresh.com.

The Longhurst family, interrelated with the Rydes, actually originally come from the nearby villages of Ockley and Ewhurst, where the family's origins can be traced into the Middle Ages. Yeomen farmers of middling social status, the family name of 'Longhurst' is an old English locational name, meaning 'the Long Wood', and points to descent from Saxon or Jutish settlers to the kingdom of Kent. The famiy later have acquired some Norman blood through mixture with the Percivals as well as numerous Sussex families; by the late 18th century, the well-to-do wheelwright Walter Longhurst was wealthy enough to build a family home in brick on Clark's Green, Capel, land which had been granted him by the Earl of Petworth. What Walter didn't reckon, however, was the Industrial Revolution, which saw a decrease in the use of carts and carriages as well as a move to larger roads than 'The Street' which connects Capel to London. In short, Walter probably wasn't able to pay the mortgage on the home in which he had etched his initials, as well as those of his wife, Anne, by the front door (see them still today, W.L. and A.L. 1764). His numerous children, as a result, couldn't count on much of an inheritance, and Walter's son Joseph, along with his wife, Sarah, together with their own children and grandchildren, made the daring decision to emigrate to Canada as part of the Petworth Project. With other members of the Surrey community, the Longhursts became some of the first English settlers in the areas of York and Muskoka, Ontario, Canada, where before they could build a house, they had to turn primeval forest into arable land. A letter home by Rebecca, wife of Geoge Longhurst, to her mother in England, attests the gruelling conditions of early pioneer life in Canada as well as the risks involved in the six week-long journey by boat to the New World. Rebecca, however, staunchly affirms that their life in the New World is more replete with resource and opportunity than that which they knew in the Old, and the family thenceforth became firmly established in the Muskoka area until the late 20th century, when changing times and increased movement dispersed their descendants to western Canada, the USA, and even--as in the case of this descendant---back to England, where these photos were taken on a momentous homecoming.
Thanks to Mary Day, local genealogist, and to the current owners of the house of Clarks Green, who were kind enough to welcome us into their/our home. Also thanks to Lyle Longhurst, who has dedicated the larger portion of his life to extensively researching the Longhursts of Ontario.
The nearby parish church of St. John the Baptist contains at least one Longhurst burial, that of Walter Longhurst, son of the Walter by whom the Clarks Green house was built. Walter's grave can be found beneath the large tree at the back of the church.
