I somehow actually got my hands on a real photograph of Johnny Appleseed. I couldn't find much information on it, so I had to infer some stuff. It was probably taken in the 1840s. But still, it’s a photograph, and we should probably use it for the lead image. Thoughts?
Does not match the drawings in the Fort Wayne historical society display. The first pictures known to have been taken in Fort Wayne were taken in 1849. That would be 4 years after his death. The likely hood of your picture being Johnny Appleseed is ZERO.
@ Thrakkx: It looks like you removed "American" as Chapman's nationality from the info box. Just wondering if there was some doubt as to his citizenship? Kthapelo ( talk) 22:24, 30 January 2022 (UTC)
Due to several unproductive IP edits within the past few days, I have requested protection for this article. Just Another Cringy Username ( talk) 21:23, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
