<big>I like that story and I'll let you stick it to 'em!<br>
<br>
Now, to make this Oregon, has anybody mentioned Squire Hammond
Applegate, Benjamin Applegates son? Yeah, those Applegates, I think.
I have four other Squires in my data, and one Squirel, Rachel Squirel
Jayne.<br>
<br>
Actually, I'm a little surprised to find this Applegate connection in
my data -- really I didn't know it was there, but he's the husband of
2nd cousin, five times removed. Have recently been reading a bit about
those Applegates in my readings on the Modoc War. Data was in a
download on the Casebolt family, my paternal grandmother's line, and
also all my Burr cousins in Oregon. Goes back to one Jonathan Stark.<br>
<br>
I guess I have a bit more work to do here, just what I need.<br>
<br>
Bill Strickland -- hope the font isn't messed up, something odd
happened entering it.<br>
