George William Applegate
At some point George Wm. Applegate moved to Texas. There he married a woman named Mary. I find him on the following censuses:
1880 Delta Co., TX, Precint 1, page 482A:
George APPLEGATE, 29, Carpenter, MS, NJ, VA
Mary, 25, wife, Keeping House, TX, KY, LA
Willie, 7, daughter, TX, MS, TX
Lamon, 4, son, MS, MS, TX
Edgar, 2/12, son, TX, MS, TX
1900 Lamar Co., TX, Paris City, Precint 1, Ward 2, page 117A:
Geo. W. APPLEGATE, Oct. 1850, 49, MS, PA, PA, Carpenter
Molly, wife, Dec. 1853, 46, TX, KY, SC
census show they have been married for 27 years and Mary had 8 children of which only 3 are now living.
1910 Lamar Co., TX, Paris City, Precinct 1, Ward 4, page 136A:
George APPLEGATE, 60, MS, NJ, MS, Retail Merchant, Clothing, Confederate Army
Mollie, wife, 59, TX, KY, AL
Willie HOPE, daughter, 35, TX, MS, TX
Arleigh, son, 14, TX, AR, TX
George, son, 13, TX, AR, TX
Hobart, son, 11, TX, AR, TX
Carl, son, 9, TX, AR, TX
Clarence, son, 9, TX, AR, TX
George and Mollie have been married 37 years and she had 8 children of which 3 are still living. Willie has been married 17 years and had 6 children of which 5 are still living, I don't know where her husband is. Although the children are named as sons of the household I believe they are actually grandsons.
