General Notes: Husband - Samuel Harper Leeper


During his younger years he was in mercantile business, but farming and stock-raising later constituted the principal part of his occupation. He spent the winter of 1836-37 in Rock Island, Illinois, having arranged to go into business in that place. His parents wishing him to return home, he did so, feeling it to be his duty to return home to promote their comfort.

Politically he was a Republican, and an advocate of tariff for protection to American productions.
