Turning to the next son of Daniel, Jacob Applegate. He married Rebecca, daughter of Peter Tilton. They had three sons: John, Jacob Junior, and Ebenezer, born July 28, 1742, died March 20, 1827; lived near Freehold. Of Ebenezer's descendants we have a complete record, but will not repeat here for lack of space, mentioning only that the elder son, John Applegate (the only child leaving N. J.) moved to Ohio, and finally settled in Indiana, of whom you know.

The third son of Daniel was Bartholomew Applegate , is the group identified with Dover Township, and whose descendants are still numerous around Toms River. He had seven sons, Bartholomew, Jacob, William, Ebenezer, Daniel, and Joseph, of most of whom we have a more or less complete account, embracing the records of Charles Albert Applegate, of Chicago, John Beard Applegate, of Franklin, Indiana, Dr. John Chew Applegate of Philadelphia, Alva J. Applegate, of Wichita, Kans., and others. Many of the descendants of Bartholomew found their way through Ohio into Indiana and Illinois. And if tradition can be relied upon, a few traveled down through the Cumberland Gap into Tennessee, thence into Kentucky, landing finally in Indiana.

I have seen this and while it is nice to have a history, it is unsourced. I am sure there are sources for the profiles, but they are probably reserved for the membership, as so many societies do.
