Johnny Appleseed
Many of us grew up hearing stories about Johnny Appleseed, but you may be surprised to realize that he was a real person. John Chapman, sometimes known as Johnny Appleseed, was born in Massachusetts in 1774 and rose to prominence as a pioneer nurseryman, introducing the apple tree to various states. Don’t be fooled by the photo; he was also known for being exceedingly nice, and he became a legend while still living. This photograph was taken in the 1840s.
