Hélène & Claude,
Do you think your tree could possibly be a standard rootstock from a graft 
that failed? Sometimes this can happen and no one notices that the variety
has been lost. Because sometimes standard stock is from open pollinated seed 
it could have parentage including a red fleshed crab. I am currently
waiting for a dark purple leaved seedling of 'Hampshire' to fruit hoping for 
a red fleshed edible apple that will be at least above small sized.
If you have access to scions of your red fleshed apple, I know of other 
people in NAFEX who are interested. Some other year, I would like to compare
it to a red fleshed fruit of about the same size that is growing in my 
neighborhood and which I have grafted. ........vic NH zone 3
