I was at the Family History Library in SLC on Satudray researching Harriett Ann Applegate. I believe that she is possbily the daughter of Elijah Applegate and 2nd wife Elizabeth Bence widow of Michael Leatherman. Other family members believe that she is the daughter of Samuel Applegate and Judith Rogers. Samuel is Eliajh's son from his first wife Jennie Pharris. Someone has listed on Ancestry.com children of Elizabeth by Elijah as the children of Jennie Phariss. These children were clearly born after Elizabeth and Elijah were married. She is also living with one of them on the 1860 census and next door to one on the 1870 census. Does anyone know who the parents of Harriett Ann Applegate are. I have sent for the newspaper microfilm on interlibrary loan from Stockton, Rooks Co. Kansas where Harriett died in 1911-1912 in hopes that her parents or siblings are listed in her obituary. Harriett was born in 1829 outside of Louisville, Jefferson Co. KY. She married Jacob William Reeder in 1848 in Jefferson Co. KY and then moved to Clermont Co. Ohio and then onto Cedar County and Scott Co. Iowa and then onto Warren Co. MO where 2 of her children and her husband died and are buried. She and the rest of her 8 to 7 children move to Rooks Co. Kansas in two wagons where they all homesteaded. Brenda Reeder
