• Notes

  in the 1850 census, there is a Samuel Coburn b. 1802 living with Arthur Coburn and his family. Was that this Samuel, with the wrong birth year? Or ? Might be this Samuel? From - History of the Upper Ohio Valley with Historical Account of Columbiana County, Ohio. Copyright 1890 and published 1891 by Brant and Fuller. Madison, WI. Under St Clair Township, page 259: "James Huston, an old and highly respected citizen of Columbiana county now deceased, was born in Virginia about 1789, Samuel and Esther (Waugh) Huston being his parents. James came to Ohio with his parents about 1799 and settled on the farm where his widow now resides, three months before the organization of the state, when the country round about was infested with wild beasts and still more hostile savages. Samuel was a farmer and one of the earliest pioneers. James was drafted in the war of 1812, but secured a substitute on account of having a widowed mother to care for. He was a good farmer, keenly alive to the best interests of his farm, and a good citizen, always identified with any work which promised the public welfare. He (James Huston born 1789?) was married October 20, 1842, to Miss Francis, daughter of Samuel and Margaret (Crawford) Coburn. Samuel Coburn came to Ohio with his parents in 1794, and settled near Calcutta. He was born August 5, 1780, and died January 8, 1871. He was a private in the war of 1812, serving during the entire war. He was an excellent agriculturist and an exemplary Christian gentleman. Both himself and wife were devout members of the Seceder church. He held many minor public offices, and his official acts were ever characterized by honesty and faithfulness. His wife passed away in 1843, she being then sixty-four years of age. https://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/huston/1751/ From 'History of Columbiana County', pg 308: "Other settlers in that neighborhood about that time were Samuel and John Coburn, near where Calcutta now is." (Research):not sure if this is our samuel but using these dates.
