1905 – letter At one time, someone asked me if I knew who were the parents of Mary Johnson who married Garret Applegate in Allegheny Co., PA. Since that time I have received a copy of a letter written by J. Sutton Wall in 1905. The following confirms who the father of Mary was, but not the mother. J. Sutton Wall was talking about the Solomon and his father Peter Johnson and their families of Allegheny County, PA. Following is an extract: “I have a list of all of his children and dates of birth. I do not know where Solomon Johnson lived when he died. Their [Solomon and siblings] half sister Mary Johnson married Garret Applegate the father of James and grandfather of John Applegate who was neighbor to my father, and whom you remember very well.” J.
