YAPLE - I am still trying to get over that brick wall! My gr gr gr grandfather, Smith Yaple(s) born between 1800 and 1820 in Delaware County, believe to be Middletown Area. With all the Yaple info, I can still find nothing to tell me who his parents were. I know that he was in the Delaware County Census from 1840 to 1855. In 1865 he moved to Steuben County, NY. His wife was Mary Ann Scott. Known children: Jane, Margaret, William, Marcus, Ira, Sylvester, Amanda, and George. Can anyone connect in any way to this family? Betty Yeaples Hites - posted 03-2003
YAPLE - I am descended from the Yaple(s) in Delaware County, NY, as I believe the Erie Yaples are also. I live in Springboro, Crawford Co, PA. The farthest I can go is to my great great grandfather, Smith Yaple(s), have seen it both ways on census records, in Andes, Delaware, NY. He was married to Mary Ann Scott, somewhere shortly before 1837, as in 1840 the census shows him in Andes as at least 20 but not yet 30, the same for his wife, and a daughter under 5. From following census, I know that the daughter was born about 1837 and her name was Jane E. Yaple. In every census he is listed as first name of Smith, but I wonder if that was actually a middle name maybe. Also, maybe his mother's maiden name was Smith. I just have not been able to connect him to any siblings or parents yet. Would ALL who have any Yaple, Yaples, Yeaple, Yeaples connections please check to see if there might be a Smith or Scott connection around that time period? Figuring he must have been born between 1810 and 1820. Other children of Smith and Mary Ann Yaples were: Jane E., William H., Marcus, Margaret M., Sylvester L., Ira, Amanda, and George Yaple(s). We have found info to indicate that both William and Marcus died in the Civil War. In 1840 the family was listed in Andes, Delaware, NY. In 1850 they show up in Colchester, Delaware, NY. In 1855 and 1860 they are on Andes, Delaware, NY. I have not located them ANYWHERE yet in 1870. In 1880 Mary Ann Yaples is listed as a widow with her two sons Sylvester 30, and George 23, in Carrollton, Cattaraugus, NY. Do you happen to have anything that might concern any of these people?
