Samuel Hepburn, (James, Samuel) born in Philadelphia November 5, 1782; died at Lock Haven October 16, 1865, in the 84th year of his age. He was raised at Northumberland, Pa., and there he received his preparatory education. At a suitable age he entered Princeton College and was graduated therefrom with honor. On his return home he commenced reading law under the direction of the celebrated Jonathan H. Walker, then a resident of his native town, and was admitted to the bar at Sunbury about 1800. He located at Milton, Pa., where his uncles, Samuel and John, were then living, the former engaged in merchandising, and he was the second lawyer to open an office in that place.
At that time Milton was a very small town, but he closely attended to business, and as the place grew his business expanded with it, until he had built up a fine practice. Mr. Hepburn married Miss Ann, daughter of Rev. Slator Clay and Hannah Hughes, widow of John Hughes, of Montgomery County, Pa., about 1811. After living in Milton about forty-five years, they removed to Lock Haven in 1856, in order to be near their two daughters who were residents of that place. There Mr. Hepburn died as stated above. His wife, who was born March 16, 1788, died December 5, 1865, having survived him less than two months.
