It's a long shot that anyone will be able to identify my lady but here goes. I have a Rebecca Applegate who married Matthew Gracey. They had a daughter Parthenia Bethany Gracey who married Capt. John Steadman. They had a dau Mary Macoon Steadman born abt 1754, died 24 July 1814, Lived in South Kingstown, Rhode Island, married John Gould. I know that there is not much info above but hope it will ring a bell with someone. Thank you. John

In the Applegate Family In America by Hugh Voress (the searchable database at http://www.jerry-applegate.org/genealogy/thomas1/desc03.htm#433 ) you find just Rebecca's name given, but all of her ancestry. CALENDAR OF NEW JERSEY WILLS, VOLUME I, 1670-1730; Paterson NJ, 1901, pg.15 1700 Oct. 15. Appelgat, Daniel, senior, of Middlesex, Monmouth Co.; will of. Wife Rebeckah sole Heiress and executrix of real and personal estate; the children - John and Jacob, receiving each 6s.; Bartholomew, Ebenezer, Susana, Hanah, Mary and Rebeckah, each one. Witnesses - John Newman, Thomas Shepard, Thomas Appelgat. Proved September 7, 1710. Lib. 1, p. 280, and Monmouth Wills. To find that she was the one married to Matthew Gracey, there is a book at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah titled The Gracy Family of New York and Texas, 929.273 G753g , p.148. Also http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=trish1947&id=I572 97 For her marriage to John Tilton of Monmouth, NJ, there is the Applegate Family History, by Donald T. Applegate, available on microfilm at or ordered from the Family History Library in Salt Lake, FHL US/CAN Film 973, p. 471. I hope this helps some.
