Israel Applegate
Married, settled with the rest near Ebenezer. Children: Byram and William. Byram began to teach of couple of years prior to the writer's advent into the same profession in 1848. Byram ("Doc"), has some documents of this same date. For reasons, not well determined, the boys feared Henry Applegate very much. It may have been because of his office of constable, but he never gave us a harsh word.
