SAMUEL(5) 1783-1836

The history of Samuel is shrouded in a controversy as to his placement in the family tree. Depending on the side you take, he was either the son of William(3) and brother of Jonathan(4) or the grandson of William(3) and son of Jonathan(4). Where and when he was born depends upon the version you accept. A fuller discussion of this controversy is found on the background and disputes page. Regardless, he was born in Virginia and came west to Kentucky with Jonathan. There, he married Nancy Elizabeth Orr. Her parents are unknown. They had eight children who would found large families and move farther west to Missouri, Iowa, Utah and Oregon. Samuel probably died in Pike Co., Illinois, though it may have been in Missouri. Nothing more is known of his wife Nancy.
