Kim,
Thanks for the info. Here is some more data from the people at Applegate-nation.org:
5F4C1C William Henry Applegate, born 1815 (David E-"1816"-ED) (DEPARTMENT
FOR HUMAN RESOURCES REGISTRAR OF VITAL STATISTICS-Voress-in "Georgetown,
Ky"-ED); died Feb. 17, 1883 in Louisville, Ky. He married on Oct. 27, 1835
in Georgetown, Ky. to Catherine Matilda Clark, born Feb. 14, 1818
(DEPARTMENT FOR HUMAN RESOURCES REGISTRAR OF VITAL STATISTICS-Voress-in
"Georgetown , Ky"-ED); died Aug. 14, 1900, daughter of the Honorable Cary
Ludlow Clarke (diseased at the time of the marriage), who had settled in
Scott Co., Ky. in 1792. (for his interesting history, see J. Stoddard
Johnston, ed. Memorial History of Louisville. Chicago, 1896 p.586). About
1861, William Applegate, a southern sympathizer, moved his family to Canton,
Miss., where he was appointed to a military position in the Commissary Dept.
of the Confederate States. When Vicksburg fell, they moved to Eutah, Ala.
where they remained until the end of the war. After the war, they returned
to Georgetown, Ky. where they found the family property scattered and their
property in possession of others and their fortune wrecked. William removed
his family to Louisville in 1868 and established a wholesale whiskey
business, called Applegate and Sons, which he ran with his sons until his
death.
Any idea who bought the operation or what happened to it? I did an internet search and found some info on an Applegate distillery still around in the early 1906 time period.
