Again our sympathy is extended to members Clyde Davis of Crane and Irene Melton of Fulton, KS in the loss of a second brother this year; and a cousin of members Lucille Brown and Mary Ernst. Also, our condolences to member Cleda Williams of Southlake, TX in loss of her husband. And to Ruth Ryser Hadlock, Klamath Falls, OR in the recent passing of her mother, Mabel Gillis.
CORRECTION: The date of the marriage of Jeff Davis & Louisa Hollers should have been 1891 instead of 1981 in the query of Cleda Williams in Vol.8 - No. 11. Also it should read Chickasaw instead of Chickaway, Indian Territory.

Eva B. BRUNER, 2695 Jerome Prairie Road, Grants Pass, OR 97526 wants to know if Hezekiah APPLEGATE was the father of Della (DELILAH). She was born in Virginia in 1808; married John COMBS in Scott Co.

Virginia and COMBS were married by Hezekiah APPLEGATE, minister of the Gospel. Was her father Samuel APPLEGATE of VA and IL or was it Hezekiah? Delila and John Comb’s son, Sterling and his wife, Sarah Ann Stark COMBS lived in Newton Township, Taney Co. MO. Their daughter, Mary Louise was my grandmother who married Milford HOPPER, son of Anderson & Mary (FLETCHER) HOPPER. Any help appreciated.
