In all of the information I have found for Douglas, including his obituary and his death certificate, which may be seen in ancestry.com, his middle name is shown as James. I do not know why the middle initial on his gravestone is L, but I am leaving his middle name as it appears in the records and obituary.
In the January 1, 1925, Census for Ottumwa Wapello County, Iowa, Douglas stated that his parents were Nathan and Elizabeth (Garik) Applegate. (Nathan's name was transcribed as Natham on the census record.)
