Notes:

JOHN HAGAN APPLEGATE-Among the early settlers who came to this country from England, were three brothers of the Applegate family, John, Jacob, and Bartholomew, who settled in New Jersey, John settling in South Jersey, Jacob in the western part of the state, and Bartholomew in the eastern section.

From these progenitors a numerous family is descended, and as early as 1674, a Thomas and Bartholomew Applegate are mentioned in Freehold records. These latter were from Gravesend, Long Island, and while Bartholomew visited the county, it is probable that he did not settle in it. Thomas Applegate married Johannah Gibbons, a daughter of Richard Gibbons, who was one of the twelve patentees of Monmouth. He died about the beginning of 1699, leaving six sons: Thomas, John, Daniel, Joseph, Benjamin, and Richard. His wife, Johannah, survived him, and she and her father are recorded as his executors. His will was dated February 1, 1698, and proved February 1, 1699. his eldest son, Thomas, settled at Perth Amboy; he married Ann, and their sons were: Thomas, John, James, and Andrew. From the descendents of Thomas and Johannah, sprang a numerous progeny, numbering today many thousands, some of whom settled in Trenton, some in Freehold, one branch in Ocean County, in Monmouth, and others scsattered throughout the country. Joseph Applegate was the well remembered Justice of the Peace of Toms River, anjd in the patriot army in the American Revolution, Monmouth County was represented by the following Applegates: Daniel, John, Joseph, and William. The surname Applegate is from the ancient Saxon word, applegarth, meaning an apple orchard, which probably points to the early occupation of the family in that far-back distant period.

John Hagan Applegate was born on April 9, 1830, son of Bartholomew, born April 11, 1800, and Lucretia (Applegate) Applegate, the latter born June 16, 1806. The son was educated in the public schools of Cedar Grove, and when his education was completed, became a farmer, which occupation he followed all his life.
