bullet  General Notes:

Samuel appears twice on the 1880 US census, in his own household, and also in the household of his son, Stephen. The info provided on Samuel on the former is more sketchy than on the latter, which indicates that his wife, Eleanor, probably provided it.

Samuel's birthplace varies from census to census, but it is most likely that he was born in Berkshire County, Massachusetts.

Samuel married Eleanor E. UNKNOWN about 1830 in New York. (Eleanor E. UNKNOWN was born about 1810 in Long Island, New York and died after 1880 in Allegan County, Michigan.)
