- James Sample of Derry Township, Lancaster County (now Dauphin) died in 1759, leaving wife Ann together with children including eldest son John and daughters Sarah and Ann. His daughters married brothers Robert Taylor (b. 1740) and Matthew Taylor (b. 1742). James' wife Ann lived into the 1790s, it seems, at which point her son John published the following announcement in the Carlisle Gazette:
Whereas I understand that Robert & Matthew Taylor have proposed & advertised for sale a tract in Derry Township, Dauphin Co., late the property of Anna, decd, which land the said decd. did in her last will bequeath to the heirs of her son John Sample, this is to forewarn persons not to purchase said property. (signed) John Sample
