Reading Vt, d 1838 Stockholm NY - At age 17, Samuel was a military
scout in Captain Sawyer's Company in the Revolutionary War,
enlisting at Reading, Vermont. His brother-in-law, Levi Bishop
served in the same company. He applied for his veteran's pension in
1818. He was recorded in a number of land transactions in Reading
between Jan 1791 and 1829 and appeared in five censuses for Reading
between 1790 and 1830. All of his children were born in Reading and
the dates of their births are from the Reading town records. About
1830, he and eight of his children moved west to St. Lawrence
County, New York and settled in a hamlet founded by his son, John,
named Brookdale on the Stockholm - Norfolk town line. Samuel did not
buy any land in New York. Apparently he and his wife lived with one
of their children. He and his wife both died there and are buried in
the Brookdale Cemetery. History of St. Lawrence Co. gives dob as 1766
