What were native apples (crabapples) used for in the 1700s and 1800s? Why?

The NATIVE APPLE  used for cooking flames for smoked foods, crabapple wood releases a pleasant aroma while burning very slowly during 1700s and 1800s.

Explanation:

Crabapple trees are found in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, including Kazahkstan, Russia, and China. Crabapples also inhabit the temperate regions of North America since they were introduced to the Western Hemisphere in the 18th century. They tend to inhabit relatively open areas with lots of sun exposure and good air circulation.

These trees do not have a particular soil preference. They do best in moist, well drained and slightly acidic soils; however, they are also highly adaptable to poor soils and can endure various soil acidifies, soil compaction, drought, pollution, wounding, and heavy pruning. This adaptability gives crabapples a high urban tolerance.
