DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with George by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with George:
"Born of unknown parentage, George is thought to have been born around 1779 based on his tombstone. His place of birth is uncertain, although some family historians believe he and his parents came from Fishing Creek Township in Columbia County, Pennsylvania (which was part of Northumberland County back then) because there is a George Appleman in that township with seven individuals in 1810; there is also a Rhoda Appleman in the 1820 Census over 45 years of age. Furthermore, there is an 1811 taxation record of 196 acres with a log house as well as one horse and four cattle in Hemlock Township on the east branch of Fishing Creek. Based on an 1815 land transaction when he was thirty-six years old, he owned thirty-six acres in Harrison or Clayton Township, Perry County, which is now in York Township, Morgan County, Ohio. His family appears in that township in the 1820 Census and then in the 1830 and 1840 Census in Deerfield Township. His June 1833 personal property assessment suggests that he has two horses and three cattle while his 1840 assessment shows three horses/mules and four cattle. Unfortunately, his will and administration documents haven’t been located yet.
Sometime before 1804 when his first child was born, George married Margaret Cox (calculated 1784-1855) probably in Pennsylvania; together they had these children: 1) (1804-abt 1840); Evangelist William “Billy” (1806-1897); John (1809-Bef 1847); Peter ((1809-1876); Levi (1814-1893); Jesse (1815-1893) James (1818-1868); Katherine Ann (1820-1906); Margaret Jane (1821/1825-Aft 1870); and Phillip Isaac (calculated 1827-1892). She remarried to James McAdoo in October 1843 with two minor children of her own.
When he died in February 1842, George was buried in the Church of Christ (i.e., Campbellite) Cemetery in Deavertown, Morgan County, Ohio with a 1985 replacement stone in front of the old, deteriorating one."
