Seeking any information on Margaret
Appleton, wife of Edwin E. Appleton of
Nevada County.
Would anyone happen to know her date of death, or any other information about her?
So far, my research shows she may have previously been Margaret
Kennedy and that she married E. E. Appleton on May 1, 1867 in
Nevada County. She may have died sometime prior to May 22, 1870 as I have found Edwin E. being married to Ann
Irving on that date.
Also have found the following:
E. E. Appleton who was a resident of
Washington and was listed as in the refinery business in 1879.
The obituary of E. E. Appleton, b. England 1831, ex-Chief of the Grass Valley Fire Dept., member of AOUW. He died in Grass Valley 18 Apr. 1894, leaving a wife 3 girls and a boy.
The obituary of Ann
Appleton, native of
New York who came to
California when an infant in 1852, died at 78 yrs. in Sacramento June 3, 1931. She was a charter member of Olympic
Temple, No. 10, Pythian Sisters of Grass Valley; Sacramento Pocahontas and Rebekahs. Although she had lived in Sacramento many years prior to her death, she was considered an old time resident of this community. She is stated in this obit to have been the widow of the late Edward
Appleton. Surviving her were: three daughters, Mrs. Margaret
Hurley, Mrs. Edith
Rowe and Mrs. Etta
Snyder of Sacramento; one son, Edward
Appleton of Sacramento and the following brothers and sisters: Mrs. Sarah
Mullins, Grass Valley; Mrs. Elizabeth Gummoe, Oakland; Mrs. Dottie
Skibinski, Oakland; Mrs. Kate Beardsely, Spokane, Washington; Robert
Irving,
Crane,
Oregon, and John
Irving, Sacramento. It was said that her remains were to be brought to Grass Valley for burial in the City Cemetery.
Would anyone happen to know if E. E.; Edwin; and Edward were as I suspect the same individual and/or have any more information pertaining to this family?
