Jesse Applegate vs. Jesse A. Applegate

[edit]

Note: There are two Jesse Applegates that are often conflated in print and across the internet: Jesse Applegate (1811-1888) - the subject of this article - author of "A Day with the Cow Column in 1843", etc; and his nephew, Jesse Applegate Applegate (1836-1919), AKA Jesse A. Applegate, son of Lindsay Applegate, author of Recollections of my Boyhood (1914). The Library of Congress and some other catalogs list the elder Applegate as "Jesse A. Applegate 1811-1888" but this may be in error: I'm no expert, but scholarly sources appear to only use the middle "A." for the younger Applegate. Perhaps adding to the confusion is that the above works were re-published together in 1934. It also appears there are no known photographs of the elder Applegate.[1] The bearded photograph is Jesse A. Applegate, as identified here and in a similar photograph dated 1905 in Applegate, 1988.[2] Take care to not confuse these 2 men when developing this article, and be alert for sources or statements that may mistake them (or fail to distinguish them). --Animalparty!

Thanks AnimalParty. I'm the one who added the original photo, and I appreciate you correcting my mistake. Sounds like this is a more complicated area than I realized. I would think you could trust the Oregon Secretary of State Office, which – as you noted on Commons – incorrectly identifies the subject, but apparently not! Thanks for your attention to detail on this. MarginalCost (talk) 16:27, 7 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
