General Notes: Husband - Leonard App


He settled on part of the original farm of his father, near Selins Grove, Pennsylvania, where he engaged in farming and milling. This land was later [in 1898] owned and occupied by some of his sons, namely: Jeremiah and Solomon. The portion of his son Simon P., who was deceased before 1898, was occu-pied at that time by the sons of the latter-G. Nelson and Samuel. By industry, economy and frugality Leonard App accumulated considerable property, and became one of the wealthy men of the community. He was a mem-ber of the Lutheran Church of Selins Grove, and took an active part in the organization of the Second Lutheran Church, now called the Trinity Lutheran Church, and served as a member of the building committee. To its upbuilding he contributed freely of his means, and he labored faithfully, especially in family visitation and prayer meetings.
