Notes	XMSC-1 George S Applegate, b. abt 1812 in PA or NJ (1850 US Census, MS, Carroll Co., The Southern Div., 504/554 [age 48, birthplace PA]; 1860 US Census, MS, Carroll Co., 5th Police Dist., p. 15, 103/97 [age illegible, birthplace NY/NJ]; 1870 US Census, MS, Carroll Co., Township 19, Range 3 E, p. 31,204/204 [age 58, birthplace PA]; 1880 US Census, MS, Montgomery Co., Winona, 1/145, p. 14B, [blank]/127 [age 67, birthplace NJ]), d. 8 Oct 1887 in Winona, Montgomery Co., MS (Findagrave Memorial # 21295074), bur. Oakwood Cemetery, Winona, Montgomery Co., MS (Id.). He married on 1 April 1840 in Carroll Co., MS Mary Jane Mann, b. abt 1822 in VA (1850 US Census, supra [age 28, birthplace VA]; 1860 US Census, supra [age illegible, birthplace VA]; 1870 US Census, supra [age 48, birthplace VA]; 1880 US Census, supra [age 57, birthplace VA]), d. 21 Jul 1891 (Findagrave Memorial # 21295073), bur. Oakwood Cemetery, Winona, Montgomery Co., MS (Id.). In 1841, George S Applegate appears on the property tax roll for Carroll Co., MS. He owned a small parcel of five acres and was also taxed on one poll—that is a free white male over 21 in the household. 1841 Property tax list, Carroll Co. (MS), Mississippi State Archives, Box 2490, img. 3. The next property tax roll I can find is for personal property in 1847. George S Applegate was taxed on one watch worth $15 and one poll. 1847 Property tax list, Carroll Co. (MS), Mississippi State Archives, Box 2490, img 5. This list also contains a Richard Applegate, taxed on one poll, who I have not been able to identify. In 1850, George was enumerated in the census in Carroll Co. As he consistently did throughout his life, he gave his name as George S Applegate. He was 48, a carpenter, born in PA, with real property worth $1500. Also living the household were Mary J, age 28, born in VA; Calhoun, age 6, born in MS; Georgiana, age 4, born in MS; George, age 7 months, born in MS; Mary J Herlop [very difficult to read], age 19, born in TN [again, very difficult to read]; and Hannah Black, black, age 80, born in Africa, a blind deranged pauper. 1850 US Census, supra. On 15 October 1855, land patents were issued to George [L or S] Applegate, William A Mann, and William Z Clark for land in Carroll Co., MS. Between the two patents, the land purchased contained about 243 acres. (Land Patents MS-1830-212 & MS-1830-213). Also in 1855, George appears on the personal property tax list for Carroll County. He continues to own his clock and has added some gold and silver. 1855 Property tax list, Carroll Co. (MS), Mississippi State Archives, Box 3608, img. 2. On the same tax list in 1855, there is an entry for Applegate & Mann owning six slaves. Id. I believe this is a business partnership between George and William Mann, probably his father in law, but possibly either George’s wife or brother in law. George and Applegate & Mann appear on the personal property tax list for 1857. George still owned a clock and was taxed on that and one poll. Applegate & Mann owned two slaves. 1857 Property tax list, Carroll Co. (MS), Mississippi State Archives, Box 3615, img 148. In 1858, George owned a pleasure carriage, a clock, five slaves, and one poll. Applegate & Mann owned thee slaves. 1858 Property tax list, Carroll Co. (MS), Mississippi State Archives, Box 9845, img 3. In 1859, George owned one pleasure carriage and paid tax on that and one poll. Applegate & Mann does not appear on the list. 1859 Property tax list, Carroll Co. (MS), Mississippi State Archives, Box 3613, img 3. George and his family were enumerated in the 1860 US Census in Carroll County. The microfilm of the page is partially faded and out of focus. George’s age is illegible, his birthplace is either NY or NJ, and he was a mechanic. Also in the household were Mary, age illegible, birthplace VA; Calhoun, age illegible [with no occupation listed, he should be younger than 15], birthplace MS; Georgiana, age 12, birthplace MS; Mary Ann, age 12, birthplace MS; William, age 11, birthplace MS; Emeline, age illegible, birthplace MS; Williamsona [female], age 5, birthplace MS; John, age 3, birthplace MS; and Margaret, age 1, birthplace MS. George does not seem to have owned any real estate. 1860 US Census, supra. I cannot locate George on any of the extent property tax lists throughout the 1860s. In spite of this, he and his household were enumerated in the 1870 US Census in Carroll County. George was 58, born in PA, a house carpenter, and had $6,000 worth of real estate; Mary was 48, born in VA; Calhoun was 28, born in MS, and a house carpenter; Willimsona [or Milleneux] was 15, born in MS; John was 14, born in MS; Cordela was 12, born in MS; Addie was 10, born in MS; Elisabeth was 8 and born in MS; and Leanna was 5, born in MS. 1870 US Census, supra. Montgomery County, Mississippi, was created in 1871 from land in Carroll and Choctaw Counties. It appears the area where George and his family lived was in the portion of Carroll County that became Montgomery County. In 1880, George and his family were enumerated in Winona, Montgomery County, Mississippi. G.S. was 67, born in NY or NJ, and a carpenter; M.J. was 57, born in VA; Delia was 21, born in MS; Addie was 19, born in MS; Lennie was 15, born in MS. According to his stone, George died on 8 October 1887. He is buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Winona, Montgomery County, Mississippi. (Findagrave Memorial # 21295074). After his death, hiw widow Mary Jane married J.J. Thompson. She died on 21 July 1891, and is buried as “Mary J Applegate, wife of J.J. Thompson” in Oakwood Cemetery, Winona. (Findagrave Memorial # 21295073).
