General Notes: Husband - David Sampson
He was born in Maryland, and came with his parents on their long and tedious journey over the mountains to Washington County, Pennsylvania. Their worldly property, with which to begin the struggle of life in the wilderness, was hauled in one cart by two horses driven tandem, the members of the family who could not ride following behind the load. They first located near England postoffice, and, having no property, the struggle for existence was a hard one. After some time David returned over the mountains with a hog-drover, and while in the East purchased a tract of unbroken land, erected a log cabin, and thither moved his parents, where they died in 1834. He passed the remainder of his life on the home farm, and became a successful business man. In politics he was a Democrat, and in religious connection a member of the M. E. Church.
