Johnny Appleseed By Mary L. Bushong

---

¹     Have you ever heard of a man by the name of John Chapman? You probably have but never realized it. His other name was Johnny Appleseed!
 
²     He was born on September 26, 1774, in Leominster, Massachusetts. His father, Nathaniel Chapman, was one of the Minutemen who fought in the Battle of Concord in April 1775 when Johnny was only a baby. When the Continental Army was formed, Johnny's father joined to fight during the Revolutionary War.
 
³     Johnny had an older sister named Elizabeth. His mother died after giving birth to a younger brother. The baby died not long after. Johnny was not quite two years old at the time, and he probably didn't remember his mother at all as he got older.
