General Notes: Husband - James Sampson
He was born just above Webster, on the Monongahela river, in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. He came with his parents to Washington County in 1810. He carried on a distillery in his early years in connection with farming, and came to own 1,250 acres of land. He was president of the People's Bank of Monongahela City for some years.
In middle life he was fond of hunting, and took great pride in being the owner of the fleetest dogs in his section. Many a time, after doing a hard day's work on the farm, he would spend almost an entire night in the pursuit of game, accompanied by his faithful dogs.
In politics he has been a Whig, Know-nothing and Republican.
Eventually he lived in retirement, the owner of 1,200 acres of land.
