Notes for James Newton Appleby History of Greene County, Missouri, page 900 "This gentleman is the son of David and Catherine (Bell) Appleby, and was born December 6th, 1819, in Bedford Co, Tennessee. In October, 1832 his parents left Tennessee, and came to Wayne County,Missouri, where they lived for about ten months. Then in 1833, they moved to Greene Co, and settled in the southern part of Franklin township. James moved to Platte Co Missouri in 1841, and returned to his old home in Greene Co in 1843, and has always followed farming. He was elected, upon the Republican ticket in 1880, justice of the peace, and re-elected in 1882. 'Squire Appleby was married in March, 1841, to Susan Thornburg of Platte County, Missouri. That marriage was blest with three sons and one daughter. His first wife died in 1852, and in 1853 he was married again to Mary McCurdy of this county. By this union they have four sons and three daughters. During the war Mr. Appleby was in the enrolled militia, and was at Springfield when it was attacked by Gen Marmaduke January 8th, 1863. He was a strong Union man in 1860, voting for Bell and Everett, Bell being a cousin of his mother. His father was a native of Pennsylvania, who removed to Georgia, then to Tennessee and then to Missouri, where he died in 1867. His mother was a native of North Carolina, and died in 1866. They were married in Tennessee. They had a family of three sons and four daughters." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Genealogy notes: James married Susan Thornburg in Platte Co. Missouri in March 1841. Thornburgs lived in Greene County, Missouri in 1840 (census) as neighbors to David Appleby, but moved to Platte Co. by 1841. Source of Thornborough/Thornbrough/Thornburg information from book compiled by Charles Thornburg, providing information back to the early ages in England. Not yet located burial site for Susan Thornburg Appleby. She, like her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, may have first been buried on the David Appleby farm. They are now buried at Bellview Cemetery, which may have been a part of the Appleby farm at the time of their deaths. There is a headstone for James Appleby, but open spaces on one side.
