The Portland Observer, Wednesday, January 23, 1901
Samuel (widely known as Sam) Wainwright died suddenly at his home on the 
school section in Danby on Thursday night last, in the 73d year of his age.  
On Thursday of the week previous to his death he slipped on the ice and fell, 
but did not complain about it until after he took to his bed in his final 
sickness, and this, together with other complications, resulted in his death 
after but two days’ sickness.

Samuel Wainwright was a native of Duchess county, N.Y., but came to the farm 
in Danby where he died, from Indiana in 1864 and has resided there 
continuously ever since—a period of 36 years, and which had been improved 
until it was one of the pleasantest farm homes in the township.

Beside a widow deceased leaves three children, Mrs. Charles Conkrite, Sebewa, 
James and Joseph, Danby.  He was a thoroughly honorable, upright man and a 
good citizen.

Funeral services were conducted from the late home of the deceased on Sunday 
last by Rev. D. W. Millard.
