- 1D3A5B6 William Lewis Applegate
The History of Blue River Township says William Lewis Applegate 1D3A5B6 was born on 15 April 1833 in Johnson County, Indiana, the son of Bartholomew Applegate 1D3A5B and Elizabeth Drake. It further states he married Miss Katie G Irons, daughter of Garrett Irons and Mary Ann Giberson. After her death, William Lewis Applegate married her sister Miss Annie M Irons sometime after 1872 but before 1876 (the date of the birth of their child Benjamin 1D3A5B6C. Our writeup says the marriage was on 5 May 1875 in Franklin county, Indiana.
I have located the tombstone for Bartholomew Applegate and Elizabeth Drake in Kansas Cemetery, Kansas, Bartholomew County, Indiana. I believe their son Charles Carroll Applegate (1835-1835) is buried with them. Our write up states Bartholomew moved to Johnson County in 1832, which agrees with the state of Charles Carroll’s burial if not the county.
Based on cemetery records of the Old Methodist Cemetery, Toms River, New Jersey, where Garrett Longstreet Irons and Mary Ann Giberson are buried, the mother of Garret Longstreet Irons was Hester Applegate 1D3A4. William Lewis Applegate and the Irons sisters he married were therefore second cousins.
What is unclear is how the Irons sisters got from Toms River, New Jersey, to Johnson County, Indiana. Their parents Garrett Longstreet Irons and and Mary Ann Giberson did not make the move to Indiana--they are both buried in Old Methodist Cemetery in Toms River, New Jersey. Their brothers Benjamin H Irons and Aaron Pitney Irons are also buried in Old Methodist and Riverside Cemeteries in Toms River, New Jersey, so the sisters did not make the move with them.
Bartholomew Applegate’s brother Charles Applegate 1D3A5H also moved to Johnson County, Indiana. However, his move was somewhat later--between his marriage in 1837 in Toms River, NJ, and the birth of his daughter Ann Adelia in 1840 in Johnson County, IN. I believe I have located the stone of Charles S Applegate and his wife in Kansas Cemetery, Kansas, Bartholomew County, Indiana. The stones give slightly different birth years (1813 vs. 1815 for Charles) but I believe they are for the same people. I have found the gravestone of his son Joseph H Applegate 1D3A5H3 in the Kansas Cemetery where his aunt and uncle Bartholomew and Elizabeth are buried.
Bartholomew’s daughter, Margaret Adams Applegate 1D3A5B1 was born in Warren County, Ohio in 1822. This birth in Ohio matches our write up of her father’s peripatetic life. What is interesting is that she married her first cousin once removed, Jacob B Applegate 1D3A10F in 1840 in Johnson County, Indiana. I have located the tombstone for Jacob B in Albright Cemetery, Kokomo, Howard County, Indiana. Jacob B was the son of John C Applegate 1D3A10. John C Applegate died and was buried in Toms River, New Jersey (Cedar Grove Cemetery). This means Jacob B made the move from Toms River, NJ to Indiana on his own sometime before 1840.
Jacob Bs land patents are nearly 10 years after his marriage to Margaret Adams. The patents are for land in Howard County, Indiana. In the biography of his son, Bartholomew W 1D3A10F1, it is stated Bartholomew was born in 1840 in Johnson County and then moved to Howard County in 1847 where they stayed until the “claim could be vacated”. Many of the descendants of Jacob B are buried in Albright Cemetery in Howard County, Indiana.
