"A Presidential Look at the Timelines Study"
This is "A PRESIDENTIAL LOOK AT THE TIMELINES STUDY." Those familiar with this study, realize it is a compilation of events which seem to cluster around certain years, all of which concide to changes in the Hierarchal structure of what rose to be known as THE Branch Davidian Church. Only 3 primary elements I wish you
to consider here...one, of course, the "PRESIDENTIAL CONNECTION", two, THE YEAR OF COINCIDING EVENTS, and three...that in the same timeframe a change in the Hierarchal Structure of what Rose from Millerism to Branch Davidianism, occurred, and not just any change, but one of defining nature and in each case repetitive as a new form of Leadership either came on the scene announcing a Message, or was exiting the scene, via retirement or death. The text in blue, will be the Presidential References. EACH TIMEFRAME will be included with a specific year and will change with the next Presidential information and timeframe, and the notes to the same following in black text.
1835
January 30, 1835: At the Capitol Building, a house painter named Richard Lawrence aimed two flintlock pistols at the President, but both misfired, one of them while Lawrence stood within 13 feet (4 m) of Jackson, and the other at point-blank range. Lawrence was apprehended after Jackson beat him down with a cane. Lawrence was found not guilty by reason of insanity and confined to a mental institution until his death.

In 1834, unable to personally comply with many of the urgent requests for information and the invitations to travel and preach that he received, Miller published a synopsis of his teachings in a 64 page tract with the lengthy title:Evidence from Scripture and History of the Second Coming of Christ, about the Year 1843: Exhibited in a Course of Lectures.
1835 Millers already popular message grew moreso in revival campaigns. By 1941-42 the movement had by some estimates 100,000 followers.
Miller never actually publicly set a date for the event, though he was credited with such, and was opposed to the idea of public date setting later in his ministry. He died in 1849.
In 1844, Ellen White reported her first encounter with the supernatural. Now in the understanding that "CHRIST" means
annointed one, and as Ellen White is said to have declared both the 1st and 2nd Angels Messengers to have been
with William Miller, if indeed there was another, a 2nd, not William Miller who would have surfaced in the timeline of the language spoken by the Spirit through Miller, to a year...not 1844, but rather 1843, then it would have been James White.
White decided to leave teaching and become a preacher. Consequently, he was ordained a minister of the Christian Connexion in 1843. White was a powerful preacher and it is recorded that during the winter of 1843, 1000 people accepted the Millerite message owing to his preaching.

1850
On July 4, 1850, President Zachary Taylor was diagnosed by his physicians with cholera morbus, a term that included diarrhea and dysentery but not true cholera. Cholera, typhoid fever, and food poisoning have all been indicated as the source of the president's ultimately fatal gastroenteritis. More specifically, a hasty snack of iced milk, cold cherries and pickled cucumbers consumed at an Independence Day celebration might have been the culprit.[29] By July 9, Taylor was dead.
In the late 1980s, author Clara Rising theorized that Taylor was murdered by poison and was able to convince Taylor's closest living relative, as well as the Jefferson Co., KY Coroner, Dr. Richard Greathouse, to order an exhumation. On June 17, 1991 Taylor's remains were exhumed from the vault at the Zachary Taylor National Cemetery, in Louisville, KY. The remains were then transported to the Office of the Kentucky Chief Medical Examiner, Dr. George Nichols. Nichols, joined by Dr. William Maples, a forensic anthropologist at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, removed the top of the lead coffin liner to reveal remarkably well preserved human remains that were immediately recognizable as those of President Taylor. Radiological studies were conducted of the remains before small samples of hair, fingernail and other tissues were removed. Thomas Secoy of the Department of Veterans Affairs (and a direct descendant of Taylor's Democratic presidential opponent Lewis Cass), ensured that only those samples required for testing were removed and that the coffin was resealed. The remains were then returned to the cemetery and received appropriate honors at reinterment. The samples were sent to Oak Ridge National Laboratory, where neutron activation analysis revealed traces of arsenic at levels less than one one-hundredth of the level expected in a death by poisoning.

**********************
Joseph Bates was the founder and developer of Sabbatarian Adventism, a strain of religious thinking that evolved into the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Bates is also credited with convincing James White and Ellen G. White of the validity of the seventh-day Sabbath. He was a strong supporter of James White and the prophetic gift, which he believed was manifested in visions received by the young Ellen G. White. He contributed to early publications such as A Word to the "Little Flock." Bates was active with the Whites in participating in a series of Bible Conferences held in 1848 to 1850 that have become known as the Sabbath and Sanctuary Conferences.
William Miller Died in 1849. James Springer White, also known as Elder White was a co-founder of the Seventh-day Adventist Church and husband of Ellen G. White. In 1849 he started the first Sabbatarian Adventist periodical entitled "The Present Truth" (now the Adventist Review) in 1855 he relocated the fledgling center of the movement to Battle Creek, Michigan, and in 1863 played a pivotal role in the formal organization of the denomination.
In 1850 James and Ellen White would Carry the message forward on the Foundations of the truths sent by God to be emphasized in William Miller. The Next Couple to enter the message AS A MARRIED COUPLE prior to their Ministry, would be the Rodens.
