DEATH:

The following is from an article written by Dee Appleby about George Bradford Appleby, which can be seen at http://appleby.rootsweb.com.

"No one seems to know for certain of whatever happened to Hezekiah Appleby. It is said, "during the Civil War, with their lives endangered by Federal troops in the Fayetteville, Arkansas area, Hezekiah and a neighbor loaded freight wagons with tools and household goods and set out for Waco, McLennon County, Texas. On the way, both men became ill with typhoid fever and died, but it is not known where this happened or if they were buried in Arkansas or Texas."
