John Chapman (September 26, 1774 – March 11, 1845), often called Johnny Appleseed, was born in Leominster, Massachusetts. He was an American pioneer nurseryman who introduced apple trees to large parts of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, as well as the northern counties of present day West Virginia. He became an American legend while still alive, due to his kind, generous ways, his leadership in conservation, and the symbolic importance he attributed to apples.
