Biography
He was born on 21 October 1789 in Tunbridge Township, Orange County, Vermont. [1]
According to "Family Book of Remembrance: and Genealogy with Allied Lines" by Leonidas DeVon Mecham, Polly (Derby) Mecham wrote the following about her uncle Samuel Currier [2]:
"Three of his sons, Reuben, Ezekiel, and Samuel enlisted in the war of 1812. Samuel at Plattsburg, Uncle Ezekiel served three years as commissary, [...] Samuel died at Plattsburg, serving in the war of 1812, [...]"
Research Notes
The Battle of Plattsburgh occurred in September 1814, at Plattsburgh, New York. It is likely this is when Samuel died.
