- 5E1A5 Daniel Applegaite
Daniel was born 21 May, 1780 in South Amboy, Middlesex County (Voress--died “4 Jan 1836”—ED). He married twice: 1) Elizabeth Rogers (This Elizabeth Rogers is different from the Elizabeth Rogers who married his Uncle William 5E1B 10 Nov 1772.—ED) and 2) (Brent Mount-Howard-Voress-“Jan 12, 1811”—ED) Eleanor (NJ Marriage Records for Male Applegates-Various Researchers-R Kuntz-Voress-Eliner”—ED) Haley (Gibson, p. 3.) J. Woodhull performed both rites (Monmouth County Archives.) Elizabeth was born 05 May, 1785 (Brent Mount-Howard-Voress-“1784”—ED) and died 19 April (Brent Mount-Howard-Voress-“Aug”—ED), 1807; Eleanor was born 05 February, 1789 and died 05 (Brent Mount-Howard-Voress-“8…buried at Hoffman’s Cemetery”—ED) March, 1856 (Voress).
On 15 May, 1800, Daniel of South Amboy, sold to Uncle William (5EIC) land he had inherited from his father Jacob. No mention is made of a wife in the transaction (Appendix.) Daniel was almost twenty at the time of the sale. If Voress is correct in the date of Daniel's birth he may not have been married. Then again, was he old enough to have sold the land? This requires more investigation.
By 1810, Daniel was living in Brooklyn, Kings Co., NY. on July 11, 1810, Daniel Applegate of Brooklyn purchased from Isaac and Susannah Moser a lot on Nassau street there (Kings Co. NY Conveyances 10-327). On September 25, 1818, Daniel Applegate of Brooklyn, bricklayer, purchased from John and Sarah Jackson a lot on the south side of Marshall street near Jackson. In the same deed, Daniel purchased another lot across Marshall Street from the first. (Kings Co. NY Conveyances 17-253). On November 25, 1819, Daniel Applegate of Brooklyn purchased a lot from Samuel and Rebecca Moser on Nassau Street in Brooklyn (Kings Co. NY Conveyances 12-473).
A Daniel Applegate was enumerated in the 1820 US Census in Brooklyn. The household consisted of 1 male 26-45; one male 10-16; two males under 10; 1 female 26-45; and 1 female 16-26 (1820 US Census, NY, Kings Co. p. 139).
In 1821, Daniel and his wife Ellen began selling off their Brooklyn properties. On September 21, 1821, Daniel Applegate of Brooklyn, Mason and his wife Ellen sold to Margarette Duffield the lot they have purchased on November 25, 1819 (Kings Co. NY Conveyances 13-189). On March 30, 1822, Daniel Applegate of Brooklyn and Ellen sold to Joseph Thompson, “a colored man” one of the lots Daniel had purchased on September 25, 1818.
By the end of 1822, Daniel and Elenor had moved back to New Jersey and were still selling off the Brooklyn properties. On December 28, 1822, Daniel Applegate of New Jersey and his wife Ellen sold to James Fletcher a lot at the corner of Nassau and Adams Streets in Brooklyn. I have not been able to find a record of Daniel purchasing this lot. On May 7, 1824, Daniel Applegate of Middlesex Co., New Jersey, mason and Elenor his wife sold to Theodosius Hunt the property Daniel had purchased on July 11, 1810 (Kings Co. NY Conveyances 14-369). On April 1, 1825, Daniel Applegate of New Jersey (Mason) and his wife Ellen sold to John Jackson one of the parcels purchased on September 25, 1818.
In 1830 (p. 263), "Danl" lived in South Amboy, Middlesex County. There was one male 15-20 and one 40-50; one female was <5, one 5-10, 1 20-30 and one 30-40.
(Brent Mount-Howard-Voress-“Daniel Applegate was a farmer and owned the farm that later became known as Judge Hoffman’s Place.”—ED)
Daniel's will was made 28 December, 1835 and proved 15 January, 1836 (Appendix.) Both he and his wives are buried in Hoffman's Cemetery. All of his property, both real and personal, was to be sold except for that selected by Eleanor for "her comfort and convenience." The money was to be invested and, after paying all debts, one third of the interest was to go to Eleanor. After her death, it was to be divided between his children. The remaining two thirds of the yearly interest was to go to Margaret Ann and Mary.
In an odd deed, dated 31 March, 1841, Samuel Dixon and Eleanor Applegate, executors of Daniel Applegate decd., took a mortgage from Edward Paxton, his wife and John Paxton Jr. on land formerly "occupied by Daniel Applegate, decd." The Paxtons agreed to pay $100 to Eleanor and Dixon on 01 April, 1846 and $900 on 01 April, 1857 "with interest agreeable to the conditions of a certain bond bearing even date with this indenture" (Middlesex Deeds 16:347348.)
A Surrogate Court record of the estate can be found in File 172, Middlesex County Surrogate's Court Records.
