Radebaugh, Samuel, (deceased), son of Nicholas and Catherine Radebaugh,
was born April 24, 1826, at Carroll, Fairfield county, Ohio. His youth was
spent on the farm, and he received his education at the district schools.
He married Catherine Brandt, and from this union sprang six children:
Namon C. (who is sketched below); Emma, now Mrs. Clark, living in
Minneapolis; Ethel (deceased), Jackson, Charles, and Kate, now Mrs. Post,
residing in Moorhead. In the fall of 1856 he removed to Anamosa, Iowa for
a year; thence to Marion, in the same state, remaining there a year, after
which he came to this county, settling on section 19, Gillford township.
In 1864 he enlisted in the 10th Minn., at Fort Snelling, but soon after
was taken sick and died, seeing no active service. His politics were
republican during the latter part of his life. Previous to this he was a
"Know-nothing."* His religion may be said to be embraced in the command,
"Love thy neighbor as thyself."
*Know-nothing: a member of a 19th century secret American political
organization hostile to the political influence of recent immigrants and
Roman Catholics
