Johnny Appleseed. I found about 10 web sites confirming this answer with my first search, so I'm not going to list them all. I'm sure heyman knows that if I give an answer without a source it is the correct one. If I'm not 100% sure, I say so. Right heyman? Oct 08 01, 10:27 AM

Johnny Appleseed was the name given to John Chapman, an American pioneer who planted large numbers of apple trees along the early frontier. He became a folk hero as the result of many novels, short stories and poems about his deeds. However, most of these deeds were probably imaginary. http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/PA_Env-Her/biographies/johnnyappleseed.htm If that is not the one you are after, there is another John Chapman. A litery publisher of the Westminister Review, he is the guy referred to in Keat's poem 'On first looking into Chapman's Homer.' Oct 09 01, 8:40 PM

Nice to see my old pal Terry P-A back in action. If you want another John Chapman, how about the one who died a couple of weeks back - an actor and playwright. He wrote very many of the Whitehall Theatre farces, not that Brian Rix and trouser dropping would be readily understandable to our American cousins. Oct 10 01, 2:03 PM
