Parents: Isaac Appleton & Elizabeth Sawyer

Married: Elizabeth Hubbard

He came to New Ipswich a little before 1770 and settled on the lot next northeast of that of his brother, N. D., 38, where he lived quietly, scarcely entering any public activities, although he enlisted at least once in the Revolutionary service, and was present at the surrender of Burgoyne. But his son also had a part in the contest, so that it is uncertain who is designated by the common name upon the company rolls. Children—born in Ipswich with the exception of the youngest.

Children: Francis, Isaac, John, Mary,
Elizabeth, Jesse.

Inscription

Like Crowded forest, trees we stand,
And some are marked to fall;
The axe will smite at Gods command,
And soon will smile us all,
Learn then, ye living by these mouths be taught,
Of all these sepulchres instruction true,
That soon or late Death also is your lot;
And the next opening grave may yawn for you!
