OBITUARY OF TILLIE ALICE APPLEGATE
The Princeton Union, October 31, 1895, p. 1.
DIED
In Rockford, Wednesday, Oct. 23, Tillie Alice, beloved wife of J. W. Sausser, aged 22. Her death was caused by puerperal fever.
Mrs. Sausser was a daughter of William Applegate, born in Princeton and grew to womanhood in this village. Six years ago she was married to Mr. Sausser and shortly after moved to Rockford. She leaves a babe three weeks' old.
The funeral occurred last Sunday at the Congregational church, Rev.. C. D. Moore officiating, and was largely attended.
The following lines were written on the death of Mrs Tillie A Sausser, which sad event took place at her home in Rockford, Minn , on Oct 23rd 1895
Tillie Alice is gone to rest,
She left this word of care
To reach the Eden of the West,
And dwell forever there.
Her merry laugh rings out no more
Upon the morning air,
Her blithesome step has left the floor
Her form the vacant chair.
In vain we seek for Tillie then
Our hearts are filled with pain,
Our loss when by death's hand she fell,
Was her eternal gain
Sweet, gentle Tillie, farewell,
Till in the better land
We shall again together dwell
A loving, happy band
The Sisters of the L. A. S. No. 1, have adopted the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, It has pleased Almighty God in his wisdom to call from earthly toil to heavenly rest, Tillie, beloved wife of J. W. Sausser, and daughter of Comrade Wm. Applegate, and one near and dear to sisters, Elizabeth Sausser, Maggie Southard, Sarah Sausser, May Chapman and Lutie Bullis; and while we realize that her death has left an aching void in hearts that time alone can heal; and while we bow to the will of Him who doeth all things well; theiefore, be it
Resolved, That we extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved husband, parents and friends of the deceased, and ask God's blessing on the little one who will never know a mother's love.
And be it furthermore
Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented to J.W. Sausser and Wm. Applegate and also placed on the minutes of our society. | Applegate, Tillie Alice (I42155)

Henry was born in Herkimer County New York, probably in 1838. In the 1840 US Census, the household of William Applegate in Herkimer Co., NY contains three males under the age of 5. These are probably Henry and his brothers William and Lewis.
In the 1850 US Census, Henry was enumerated with his parents and siblings in German Flatts, Herkimer Co., NY. Hew was 12 and born in New York. (1850 US Census, supra). In the 1855 NY State Census, Henry was 17, born in NY, and working as a boatman. He was still living with his parents, who had moved to Litchfield in Herkimer County. In 1860, Henry was living in the household of Richard and Catherine Van Buren in Richfield, Herkimer Co., NY and working as a farm laborer.
On October 11, 1861, Henry joined the Sixth New York Volunteer Infantry as a saddler. His term expired after two years and he re-enlisted as a Sergeant. By 1865 he was back in New York although, like most Civil War soldiers at the time, his term was not technically completed. (Princeton Union, February 8, 1906, p. 1; see also 1865 NY State Census, Herkimer Co., German Flatts, ED 1, p. 75, 637 [confirming details of military service]).
According to his obituary in the Princeton Union, Henry moved to Minnesota in 1866, coming first to Fillmore County and then in 1868 moving to Princeton (which straddles Mille Lacs and Sherburne Counties). I cannot locate him or his siblings (except for Louis in Manhattan, New York) anywhere in the 1870 Census.
Henry and his family were enumerated in the 1875 MN State Census in Mille Lacs County. He was 29 (an obvious 10 year error) and born in NY. In the household were Kate, 21, born in NB [New Brunswick]; Lewis, age 0, born in MN; and Elizabeth, age 56, born in NY—most likely Henry’s mother. (1875 MN State Census, supra).
Henry and his family were enumerated in the 1885 MN State Census in Mille Lacs County. Henry was 48 and born in New York; Kate was 33 and born in New Brunswick; Lewis was 10, born in New York; May was 8 and born in Minnesota. (1885 MN State Census, supra).
While almost all of the population schedules of the 1890 US Census were lost to a fire, the veteran’s schedules largely survived. Henry was enumerated in Princeton, Minnesota on the veteran’s schedule. He had served in the 6th New York Cavalry (Co. G). He enlisted on 11 October 1861 and was discharged on 27 June 1865. (1890 US Census Surviving Soldier’s Special Schedule, SD 3, ED 61, 117/120).
In 1900 Henry and Kate were enumerated in Princeton, Minnesota. Henry was 60, a bricklayer, and born in NY; Kate was 47 and born in Canada. Henry’s father was born in New Jersey and his mother was born in Massachusetts. Kate had borne three children, two of whom were living. (1900 US Census, supra).
Henry died on 1 February 1906 in Princeton. His lengthy obituary is attached as an appendix. Catherine died on 8 May 1917 and her obituary is also attached as an appendix.
APPENDIX
Obituary of Henry Applegate
The Princeton Union, February 8, 1906, p. 1.
Henry Applegate died at his home near Silver Lake, about one mile east of Princeton, on Thursday morning, February 1st, at 3 o'clock, from heart failure.
Mr. Applegate was born in Cedarville, Herkimer county, New York, on January 22, 1838. On October 11, 1861, he was enrolled as a saddler in Company G, Sixth New York Mounted Volunteers, and received an honorable discharge on December 15, 1863, at Culpepper Court House, Virginia. He re-enlisted in the same company on December 16, 1863, the day following his discharge, was promoted to sergeant on January 1, 1865, and received his second discharge at Clouds Mill, Virginia, June 27, 1865. His company formed part of the famous army of the Potomac, and he was present in all the great battles in which the Sixth regiment was engaged. During both terms of his enlistment he was neither sick nor excused from duty a single day, neither was he wounded. His record was a most remarkable one. He seemed to possess a charmed existence, for he was usually in the thickest of the fight.
Mr. Applegate came to Minnesota from New York in 1866 and located in Fillmore county. He remained there two years and removed to Princeton township in 1868, where he remained until the time of his death. He was married in 1873 to Miss Katherine Steeves of Princeton, Justice F. Morrison performing the ceremony. Of the union there were born two children, Mrs. Elmer M. Chapman and Louis Applegate, both residents of Princeton. The widow of the deceased also survives him.
The funeral services were conducted at the family residence by Rev. Cathcart of the Princeton M. E. church on Sunday last at 2 o'clock and the remains were interred in Oak Knoll cemetery under the impressive rites of the Grand Army of the Republic, of which he was a member. Notwithstanding Sunday was a very cold day a large number of persons followed the good old veteran to his last resting place.
The pallbearers were: W. H. Townsend, Frank Woods, Anson Howard, Joseph Nokes. S. B. Heath and David Whitcomb.
Henry Applegate was a hero of many battles. He twice enlisted to fight for his county and he fought in the front ranks whenever an opportunity presented itself. His brave deeds are on record in the correspondence of his commanding officers in the war department at Washington and will live forever. He as a soldier and a patriot. He was an honorable man, a man esteemed by all who knew him and beloved by his family—affectionate and charitable to a fault. It is with the deepest regret we chronicle the removal of this kindly old veteran from among us. But the Lord knoweth that which is best.

MRS. CATHERINE A. APPLEGATE.

Esteemed Mille Lacs County Pioneer Passes Over Great Divide
---
Another Mille Lacs county pioneer answered the final summons when Mrs. Catherine A. Applegate succumbed to cancer of the stomach at her home in this village Tuesday morning. Mrs. Applegate had been ill for some time, and the past several weeks was tenderly cared for by her daughter, Mrs. E.M. Chapman of St. Cloud.
Funeral services were conducted yesterday afternoon at the Methodist church by Rev. James A. Greer, and were largely attended. Interment was in Oak Knoll cemetery.
Deceased, whose maiden name was Catherine A. Steeves, was born at North River, New Brunswick, Canada, Sept. 21, 1852. She came to Princeton with her parents in the fall of 1862 and was married to Henry D. Applegate on September 14, 1873. Mr. Applegate passed over the great divide 11 years ago.
Mrs. Applegate is survived by a son, Louis F., of Seattle, Wash., and a daughter, Mrs. E.M. Chapman, of St. Cloud. Three sisters and six brothers also survive, viz: Mrs. Thos. Scribner, Petitcodiac, New Brunswick, Canada, Mrs. May Rines and Wm. Steeves, Princeton; Abel H. Steeves, Empress Canada; Mrs. John W. Nokes, Cottage Grove, Oregon; Robt. H. Steeeves [sic], Seattle, Wash.; Henry Steeves and Arthur Steeves, Princeton, and Fred A. Steeves of Beech, N.D.

He married Pauline V _______, b. abt. 1891 in either Michigan or Illinois (1930 US Census, supra [age 39, birthplace IL]; 1940 US Census, supra [age 49, birthplace MI]); d. _____. Pauline had been previously married to _____ Whipple, who fathered at least one child, Allen P Whipple, who was living with Louis and Pauline in 1930.
Louis was enumerated with his parents in Mille Lacs Co., MN in 1875. He was still living with them in 1885. By 1900, he had moved to Deer River, Itasca Co., MN, where he was a day laborer living in either a camp or a boarding house. (1900 US Census, supra). His father had been born in New York and his mother had been born in Canada.
According to his mother’s obituary, Louis had moved to Seattle, Washington by 1917. (Princeton Union, May 10, 1917, p. 1). He must have moved back to Minnesota shortly after that, because he registered for the WWI draft in Craigville, Itasca County, Minnesota. He was a farmer, born on 8 September 1874, of medium height and build with blue eyes and light colored hair. He gave the name of his sister, Mrs. E.M. Chapman, as his contact.
In 1922, Louis purchased a 160 acre quarter section in Itasca Co., MN. The plot is on the northern edge of Itasca County, north north-east of Big Fork. (Patent Ser. No. 858941, 14 April 1922, Cass Lake (MN) Land Office).
By 1930, Louis had moved to Lane County, Oregon. He was enumerated there with his wife Pauline, step-son Allen Whipple, and daughter Catherine M. Applegate. He was a farmer on rented land, and Pauline was a “Train Nurse – Surgical”. Louis was 55, born in MN; Pauline V was 39, born in IL; Allen Whipple was 13, born in MN; and Catherine M was 2 years and 9 months old, born in MN. 1930 US Census, supra.
In 1940, Louis and Pauline were still living in Lane County, Oregon. Louis was 65, born in MN; Pauline was 49, born in Michigan; Kathlene was 12, born in MN.
According to the Oregon Death Index (available at www.familysearch.org), Louis died on 16 January 1953 in Multnomah County, Oregon. | Applegate, Louis Franklin (I42151)

PR1D Lewis F Applegate, b. 29 May 1840 in Herkimer Co., NY (1850 US Census, NY, Herkimer Co., German Flats, 395/423 [age 10, birthplace NY]; 1855 NY State Census, Herkimer Co., Litchfield, 165/173 [age 12, birthplace Herkimer Co.

He married on 2 June 1868 in New York City, Matilda Ross b. abt. 1840 in NY (1870 US Census, supra) d. _____.
Lewis, while he only lived thirty years, left an impressive paper trail.
Lewis was enumerated with his parents in German Flatts, Herkimer Co., NY in 1850. He was ten years old and born in NY. (1850 US Census, supra). Then he was enumerated with them in the 1855 NY State Census. (1855 NY State Census, supra). In 1860, after the apparent death of his father William, he was enumerated with his mother Elizabeth and two younger siblings, Melvin and Mary. (1860 US Census, supra). He was a “pedder” [peddler?], age 20, born in NY.
In 1861, Lewis joined the 102d New York Volunteers as a medical cadet. He re-enlisted in 1863 as an assistant surgeon. On 21 July 1863, he was captured outside of Gettysburg and later confined at Libby Prison in Richmond, VA. (New York Times, November 6, 1863, [no page number]).
Lewis must have been released sometime later in 1863 because he was home in Herkimer County to purchase a lot from his mother on 5 December 1863. (Herkimer Co. (NY) Deeds 82-478). According the very brief biography in the list of graduates of Columbia College where he went to medical school, he was the Assistant Surgeon in Chard of the Hospital in Atlanta Georgia between July and October of 1864, and was promoted to brevet captain on October 6, 1865.
By 1865, he was back home with his mother and siblings. He was 25, born in Herkimer County, NY, and a surgeon. (1865 NY State Census, Herkimer Co., German Flatts, ED 1, Mohawk Village, p. 75, #637).
In January of 1865, Lewis purchased a five acre lot in German Flatts from John and Mary Tisdale. (Herkimer Co. (NY) Deeds 85-229). On 4 August 1870, Lewis Applegate “of the City of New York” and his wife Tillie sold the lot to Solomon Ford. (Herkimer Co. (NY) Deeds 96-2). Lewis signed his name to the 1870 deed as “Lewis Applegate, M.D.”.
In between, Lewis went to medical school at Columbia and graduated in 1866. (“Catalogue of the Governors, Trustees, and Officers and All of the Alumni and Other Graduates of Columbia College 1754-1882” (1882), p. 118).
On 2 June 1868 in New York City, he married Matilda Ross, the daughter of George and Matilda Petterson. "New York, Marriages, 16861980," index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F64ZPW6 : accessed 09 May 2013), Lewis Applegate. M.D. and Matilda Ross, 02 Jun 1868.
In 1870, Lewis was living with his wife with George and Eliza Ross in Manhattan. They have a daughter, whose name in the census in illegible, but may be “Louise”. (1870 Census, supra).
Lewis died on 4 December 1870 of hemiplegia. “Catalogue of the Alumni, Officers and Fellows 1807, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Medical Department of Columbia College”, p. 109.
There is an odd story appearing on one website I have been unable to verify anywhere else. Considering the obvious factual errors in the story and the Confederate apologia contained elsewhere on the site, I am suspicious of the particulars. However, it may contain a germ of truth. The story claims a so-called Southern History Museum in Jacksonville Florida is in possession of a “burial flag” from the funeral of Abraham Lincoln. It continues:
Major Lewis Applegate was a surgeon with the 102nd N.Y. Infantry Regiment. The Applegate Flag is dated April 15, 1865, the date of Lincoln's death. Exactly how Major Applegate came into possession of this flag is not known. What we do know is that several documented articles mention that in Philadelphia, one of the flags used during Lincoln's viewing had 37 stars instead of 36.
President Lincoln was the first president to be embalmed. In fact, the fluids were changed daily during the 20 days of his official state funeral. Was Major Applegate one of those who assisted in the embalming of President Lincoln? This we are not certain of but what we do know is that the flag was passed through the family as follows: Louise Applegate Worthington (1890), Maggie R. Worthington (1926), Gloria Worley Conway (1942), Mrs. Barnwell Daley (1977) and the Museum of Southern History (1993). All these individuals with the dates are written on the hoist side of the flag except the final one, the Museum of Southern History.

Presbyterians are not generally baptizers of adults. I suspect based upon his baptismal date of 1746, that he was born in 1745 or 1746. Updated: The Records of 1st Presbyterian, Cranbury state this was an adult baptism. This makes the birthdate of his father Jacob (paternity confirmed by the same Records) problematic. | Applegate, Abraham (I15024)
