Notes for Samuel (Child 4)

Samuel helped build the bell tower at the Pennsylvania State House (Independence Hall). He
married Rebecca James who was a member of a prominent Quaker merchant family. It was not unusual for
people in those days to have many children, so it is only somewhat surprising to learn that they had 17!
