Joseph Appelman

(Adam - Henry)

Joseph APPELMAN was born 16 Feb 1795 in Marylebone London, and baptised 21 Mar 1795 at St. Mary Marylebone.

Joseph was a pianoforte maker like his father, although he was only 8 years old when his father died. He may have worked for John Broadwood & Sons, and was certainly living within a stroll of the company's Great Pulteney Street site during the first half of the 1800's.

In 1851, according to the census return, he was living at 4 Cross Street, very close to his son Joseph John, and just a short distance from his late father's home in Carnaby Street.

He married Mary Ann Ricketts ASHTON 18 Dec 1825 at St. James' Piccadilly London; both of the parish, by banns, witnessed by Thomas Haynes¹⁾ and Laura Barnicot.
