Think we had an earlier conversation about him. If so, this family seems prone to a violent end. Robert was the son of Elisha, who was the son of John Applewhite of Wayne County. I have his name as Elisha Daniel Applewhite (though tombstone omits the Daniel) b 1830 and died Aug 13 1865. He was married to Sarah Matilda Vail, dau of Benners Vail and Susan Alford. They had 4 children: Henry, Thomas, Jesse and George E.L. Applewhite. Elisha Daniel\u00a0Applewhite’s only brother was Bartley Deans Applewhite who married Sara Matilda’s sister\u00a0Mary Ann Vail. Most of this Bartley Deans Applewhite family ended up in Bladen Co. and\u00a0the Wilmington, NC area.<\/span><\/p>\n Contributed by Stacey Jones<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Elisha Applewhite Died\u00a0Aug 13 1865 Aged about 35 years Further notes: Frank Thompson wrote: I think this Elisha Applewhite may very well have been the son of Robert Applewhite (b. about 1809 and died at the hands of Braswell Thomas, a free Negro in Johnston Co., NC Feb 7, 1844).
