Biography

Samuel was born in 1700. He is the son of Samuel Doty and Elizabeth Hull. He passed away in 1777.

According to tradition he lived "between the mountains, near Brownstown, N. J." Brownstown was a small village about a mile or so north of Plainfield, Union Co., N. J. Its bounds may have extended up to the valley called Washington Valley. Very little further is known of him. He was a farmer, and died in 1777. He left no will; but letters of administration were granted to his son Benjamin, January 22, 1778. The manuscript of Miss Susan Doughty mentions his children.[1]

Samuel's mother's birth date is uncertain as stated in her profile. If someone has a better source of data, please feel free to change the profile. That is why my profiles are open. If a better source is not available, rudeness is not an acceptable substitute.
Very unlikely birth date since his mother would be 51 at that time. Why doesn't this sort of thing get caught? There is software out there that catches it automatically. Try Roots Magic. Even the free version would have caught this. I am sick of all the namby-pamby talk about not criticizing, when I have found mistake after mistake on Wikitree.
