Census records for different years when she was a child, the name Amanda M. was given, Another year the name for a child the same age was Malvona. A brief bio in the Appleby Newsletter, dated October 1983; page 3: "Amanda, the seventh daughter of her father, James Appleby, and the fifth daughter of her mother, Nancy (Lane) Appleby, Amanda M. Appleby was born 28 Nov. 1845, in Polk County, Missouri. Amanda had ten brothers and sisters and eight half-brothers and half-sisters by her father's first marriage to Cynthia (Syntha) McMurray and two half-sisters, Elizabeth and Mary Bond by her mother's first marriage. A school teacher for five years, from 1863-1868, Amanda married W. N. C. C. A. Fox on 18 July 1868. His full name was William Nelson Christopher Columbus Akard Fox, but his Civil War buddies called him "Alphabet". William a son of Silas and Martha (Akard) Fox was a farmer and stock-raiser. He and Amanda moved to Cedar County, Missouri shortly after their marriage, living there five years before returning to Polk County, Missouri. Five children were born to William and Amanda: Ida 1869-1886; Amy 1871-1887; infant daughter 1872-1872; James E. 1874-1965; and Robert S. 1880-1971.

Amanda and William eventually returned to Missouri. Amanda died about 1923 and was buried at Fair Play; Polk County, Missouri. Her paternal grandparents were John and Sarah (Bell)Appleby and her maternal grandparents were Charles and Lucy (Jones) Lane. "Synthia evidently married again after death of her husband, Wm. J.

DC Informant: Ben Anderson, his mother was Jemima Ellen Appleby married to James Anderson. Jemima, an older sister to Synthia. Researcher: Tom Vaughn, LaBelle, Florida (Nov 2001): "In summer of 2001, I found a small Appleby cemetery with only nine headstones. I could only identify Dr. James Appleby, deceased 21 Feb 1869 and a second stone ***S Anthos, son of James Appleby born May 16 1801; died May 10, 1869. *** I am pretty sure of names of several others buried there, but unable to confirm by the headstones. I tell you this because the cemetery was and is hard to find there and is located in some woods, 1/4 mile from the access road, and on some private property owned by Carl Anderson, in Morrisville, MO. the Cemetery is located about 1/2 mile SE of the town of Morrisville, MO located in Polk Co. It is really a pretty little Cemetery, even though not kept up. I hope this is of some use for you or other family members. If I can be of any help, please feel free to contact me. Tom Vaughan TVRiver@aol.com Appleby Heritage Note: The information between *** *** this may be Synthia Sheppard McMurry, first wife of James Appleby, and the dates of birth and death are correct for her.
