• Notes

  Aaron lived on the homestead farm. By this time it was referred to as the Aaron Apgar farm. There was a wooden house build close to the main highway. This gave more room for his growing family, because the homestead had a majority of his father's family still living there. Besides, by building close to the highway, it saved the task of shoveling out the long lane to the stone house as the winter snows came. However, the house did not last as long as the first house. There is scarcely a trace of the wooden house remaining. Aaronlived on the homestead farm while his family was growing up. Since all four of his sons went elsewhere to make their living, he eventually sold the farm to his cousin, John Wilson Apgar I, and went to live in a house on Cokesbury-Califon Road, later occupied by the Jones family.
