Is there anyone able to offer assistance tracing the family of James Frederick Applegate, customs officer, living in Mile End in the 1881 censu with wife Charlotte, nee Bowers. James originally from Somerset, Westbury. No baptism in Westbury PRs. Also of his son, my Grandfather, Frederick Bowers Applegate. With second wife he lived in HACKNEY, East London and had eleven children in twelve years before dying suddenly in 1913. Any ideas as to how to trace the descendents would be appreciate. Thank you, Alison Benison

I believe you will find that the first tintypes were taken in 1839. Hard to believe, eh? Thanks for the information...sometime when I have nothing to do maybe I'll research photos and tintypes further. I beleive I have a tintype in my collection of old family photos. Bridget Barrington, Il

Hope this helps: The first form of photographic process was publicized by Daguerre and became known as Daguerreotype. These photographs had a case that resembled a double frame with the photo image on a silver clad copper sheet. It was then force-fit into a wood case and padded with velvet or silk. They were popular between 1839 and 1870. The cost was $5.00 which was a month's pay for some people. Tintype were produced from 1856 to 1930 and are not actually made from tin at all, but are made of thin black iron. One way to tell if it's a Tintype is that it will attract a small magnet. The first Tintype were made of heavy metal and stamped "Neff's Melainotype Pat 19 Feb 56" along the edge. During the Civil War Period of 1861-1865, Tintypes had paper holders, often embossed. Then came the "brown period," between 1870 and 1885. In 1870 the Phenix Plate Company started making plates that had a chocolate-tinted surface, painted backgrounds, fake stones, fences and rural props. During the period of 1863 to 1890, tiny Tintype portraits 7/8 by 1 inch, called Gems, were cut to fit lockets, cufflinks, tiepins, rings and garter clasps. From 1860 to 1891, the Cartes-de-Visites was popular. They were small prints mounted on a card with photographers names often printed on the back. Albumen emulsion (egg white) was often used therefore they scratched easily. From about 1866 to 1906 the photographs were made on card stock and were called the Cabinet Card. Below is a chart that depicts the era of the Cabinet Card Card Color 1866 - 1880 White card stock of a light weight 1880 - 1890 Different colors for face and back of mounts 1882 - 1888 Face of buff, matte-finished, with a back of creamy-yellow, glossy. Borders 1866 - 1880 Red or gold rules, single and double lines 1884 - 1885 Wide gold borders 1885 - 1892 Gold beveled edges 1889 - 1896 Rounded corner rule of single line 1890 - 1892 Metallic green or gold impressed border 1896 Impressed outer border, without color. Corners 1866 - 1880 Square, lightweight mount 1880 - 1890 Square, heavy board with scalloped sides. (from Willis, Photography as A Tool in Genealogy) Photographs from the 1890s and and on into the early 20th century are attached to cardboard mattes of various designs. When the Kodak Brownie home photos emerged in the mid-1890s, they were developed into postcards until about 1925.

On a recent trip to Kansas I was able to go through the photo album that was owned by Harriett Ann Applegate Reeder born 1829 near Louisville Jefferson Co. KY. In there was a picture of a Miss Mittie Applegate. I will post the picture if anyone is interested so you can look at her. It is taken pre-civil war from the clothing, hat, shoes, chair, etc in a studio. Does anyone know who she is. Could it have been a picture of Harriett Ann and her nickname was Mittie?
I have an obit of David Vanhorn whose mother was Sarah Applegate. Can anyone give me information on Sarah. I find it strange that all of this Applegate information is coming to us, i.e. the picture of Miss Mittie Applegate and now a cousin with the David Vanhorn obit with his mother Sarah Applegate. How do these if any relate to our Harriet Ann Applegate? Brenda Stewart-Reeder

I have a copy of the obit for David Vanhorn and his parents were James Vanhorn and Sarah Applegate. I would like information on Sarah to see if she fits in my husband genealogy. Also at a Reeder-Coldiron-Hall-Vanhorn-Applegate reunion two weeks ago I received a very old pre civil war picture of a Miss Mittie Applegate. She looks like she is teen to pre-teen age and would like to know who she is. Her picture was one of Harriet Ann Applegate Reeder's pictures in a photo album that belonged to her. thanks Brenda Reeder -- http://home.comcast.com/~kyseeker/

He runs 820 acres of land belonging to his father, of whic 190 acres was in wheat and 40 acres in corn. He doesn't keep a great deal of stock, but what he has is good. He and Mr. Dunning bought a threshing outfit some time ago and are doing good work and lots of it. ...One of the most congenial couples we met on the way was Mr. and Mrs. E. N. Stevens, who kindly took us in for the night. They came from Minnesota in 1898, bringing with them but a little personal property and $2.50 in cash. He bought his present farm nine years ago for $800 but wouldn't take $30 per acre for it now. They have a good house and comfortable outbuildings. He doesn't keep a great deal of stock, but what he does keep is of good quality. J. G. Coldiron came from Missouri to Kansas in 1877. He has lived in Rooks County continuously since 1906. He runs a farm of 640 acres, of which 340 acres was in wheat, 17 in oats and 70 is in corn. He has a nice bunch of cattle, is well supplied with hogs, and has 21 head of good horses and mules. ...S. W. Reeder came with his mother from Misouri in 1878 with nothing but his hands, but by industry and economy he now owns 960 acres of good land with comfortable improvements. He rents part of his land, but of his own raising he has 150 acres of wheat in the stack, 45 acres of corn and 30 acres of alfalfa. He has 45 head of cattle, 18 head of horses and mules, and 40 head of hogs. Surely he has been well paid for ticking the soil of Rooks County. H. G. Reder, his brother, came to this county at the same time. He owns 640 acres of fine land with good improvements He also rents part of his land. He own crop this year consists of 20 acres of alfalfa, 20 of oats, 200 of wheat and 40 of corn. He shipped 26 head of fat cattle the day we were there and had 40 head of mixed stock left. He has 9 head of good horses, and 50 head of hogs. Everythig was made in Rooks County. His son, Guy Reeder, rents 250 acres of his land. He is a stirring young fellow. He has 20 acres of oats, 70 acres of wheat in te stack, 20 acres of alfalfa and 50 acres of well tended corn. He doesn't keep a great deal of stock, but what he has is of good quality. ...W. H. Maddy shook the dust of Minnsouri from his feet about 38 years ago when a boy, and has been collecting Rooks county dust since that time, and now owns a well improved farm of 260 acres. he has 15 acres of alfalfa, 80 acres of wheat in th stack and a field of well tended corn. He keeps quite a herd of cattle and has plenty of horse power to run the farm. We found a mighty nice class of people on route 5, and enjoyed the trip very much. Mrs. Wm.

The lightning struck Ben Gager's barn Sunday night tearing it up considerably and killing on of his best cows. We are glad to learn that little Melvin Reeder, who was taken to Kansas City last Friday to be operated on for appendicitis, was successfully operated upon, and is getting along nicley. We all hope for his speedy recovery. (He is the son of Scott Winfield and Louisa Reeder.) S. W. Reeder and wife, of Greenfield township, took their seven-year-old son to Kansas City Friday evening, where they will have an operation performed on him for appendicitis. They were accompanied by Dr. Oechsli, who went along to witness and assist in the operation. Dr. Oechsli was accompanied by his wife. Enough for tonight. Brenda
I haven't posted in awhile. I'm still looking for George S. APPLEGATE. When and where he was born depends on what census you go by. He married 1 Apr. 1834 in Carroll Co., MS to Mary Jane MANN. In 1850 George was in Carroll Co., MS age 48 b. PA with wife Mary J. age 28 b. VA and children Calhoun age 6, Georgiana age 4, Mary A. age 2, and George age 7/12 all born in MS. In the 1860 Carroll Co., MS census George is age 47 b. NY with wife Mary age 38 b. VA and children Calhoun age 18, Georgiana age 15, Mary Ann age 13, William age 11, Emeline age 6, Williamson age 5 (a female), John age 3, and Margarett age 1 all born in MS. In the 1870 Carroll Co., MS census George is age 58 b. PA with wife Mary age 48 b. VA and children Calhoun age 28, Williamson age 15 (a female), John age 14, Cordelia age 12, Addie age 11, Elizabeth age 8 and Leona age 5. In the 1880 Montgomery Co., MS census George is still living in the town of Winona which he's lived in all along, the county lines changed. He is age 67 b. NJ and both parents are born in NJ. With him are his wife M. J. age 57 b. VA and both her parents were born in VA. Children still in the home are Delia age 21, Addie age 19, Lizzie age 17, and Leonie age 15. George Applegate served CSA Sgt. Co. H 30th MS Inf. enlisting at Grenada, MS and was on detached duty 8 Apr. 1862 as an artificer. He wrote his will on 13 June 1887 and it was probated 24 Oct. 1887. He left everything to his wife Mary and then to his children after her death (he didn't name any of his children in his will). George's son Calhoun also served in the CSA as a Private in Co. B 15th MS Inf. surrendering at Jackson, MS and paroled 17 May 1865. I also believe his son George William served in the CSA but I don't know when or where right now. Of the children I don't know anything more about Calhoun, Mary Ann, Williamson, John, or Margaret Cordelia. Georgiana married Wm. W. Steel on 9 Feb. 1860. Emeline married R. H. Godwin on 14 Mar. 1869, Addie married a Moore. Elizabeth A. married an Ellis and then a J. E. Browne and she died in 1940. Leona never married and lived with her sister Elizabeth. George William married a Mary and was living in Lamar Co., TX. Any help with the ancestry of George or continuing line of his descendants would be appreciated.

Hello Applecybers We have a new historian on the block. He has much of Howards and Hughs stuff. He even has leads on our ancestry in England. He has graduated up to using a computer after swearing up and down that he would never have one of those *&%$*@# things in the house. He is being a real poop about getting e-mail capability. He may be my second cousin, but I am ready to strangle him over this. Nevertheless, he wants to get his hands on any conclusions that are reached on this reflector. You would need to communicate with him via paper mail or phone (yes he has one). He is: K Appelget PO box 187 Syracuse NE 68446 402-269-2701 Have fun Tony Appelget

I spent the day reading the Stockton Review for 1909. Gas was 3 cents a gallon, cig's were 5 cents a pack, and a new car was $500, men's suits were $20, men's shirts 25 cents, brown leghorn eggs were 75 cents per 15, things I found on the family, at the end I explain who everyone is so you should be able to figure out how they are related to you: March 4, 1909 W.

Reeder and son, who have been visiting here with relatives for the past two weeks left for their home at Jefferson, Iowa, Monday evening. The infant child of Mrs. and Mrs. Claude Reeder, of this city, died last Friday and was buried Saturday in the Stockton Cemetery. This is a blow to the young parents, and they have the sympathy of all their many friends here. April 1, 1909 Claude Reeder moved out to a house on the H. G. Reeder place in Greenfield township last friday. Jay Feleay and wife went to Netawaka Sunday where Jan will work with Contractor Johns who is building a new school house there.

The following is a list of the sussful applicants: Third Grades: Crystal Reeder Council Proceedings: The following bills were allowed: W. F. Hall, mowing $12.00; Feleay & Son, material-labor $11.50 John W. Young, of Comanche County, Kansas, was in te city last Wednesday, looking for a fellow named John Webb, who is wanted in his county for statutory rape. He phoned out to John Coldiron's and found the fellow was there. He started out, but before he could get there the fellow had become wise, and had drawn all the money due him, $5, and had apparently, fallen off the earth.

Charles Hilgers Sr. Dead Word was received here Wednesday morning that Charles Hilgers Sr. of this county, had died at the home of his son Charles in Colorado, on Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. This will be sad news to his many friends here. He was a man universally esteemed by a large circle of friends here. He was once sheriff of Rooks County in which position he was very popular. As a friend and neighbor he stood above reproach, and the death of such a man is always untimely. We understand the remains will be shipped to Plainville for interment. August 26, 1909 Monday Morning Fire: Just at 6:30 a.m. Monday the alarm of fire was sounded both by the fire bell and the Missouri Pacific freight engine at the depot. The fire was in the upstairs of the old Ralph Wood property near the depot. The house was occupied by Will Hall and family. The fire caught from a defective flue and before it was discovered had made considerable headway. The fire department was soon there, and, although the fire was hard to get at, being in the garret whre there were no openings to it, they succeeded in putting it out before the flames got to the surface of the building. the damage was probably $150. The place was owned by Ira Hazen, and we are glad to find that the loss is well covered by insurance. Most of Mr. Hall's household goods were gotten out, but were, of course, damaged somewhat. Hall had no insurance. Mrs. Ollie Jones and four children left for their home in Columbus, Kansas, Monday evening, after an extended visit here with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Coldiron.
