    Samuel John Jessup. The desirability of the Miami valley and especially of
Hamilton county as a place of residence is indicated by the fact that so many of
her native sons have continued to make their homes within its borders after
arriving at the age of maturity and becoming factors in the business world, and
of this class is Samuel J. Jessup, who was born August 3, 1879, in Cleves, Ohio,
a son of Captain William Jessup, whose biography appears upon other pages of
these volumes. He obtained his education in the public schools of Cleves and
then followed the musical profession for a time. Later he engaged in steam
shovel work for ten years and then engaged in agriculture, purchasing a farm in
Whitewater township where he is at present engaged in general farming.
Politically, Mr. Jessup is a stanch Democrat, but never cared to hold office. He
is a devoted member of the Methodist Episcopal church, and is active in its
affairs. Fraternally, Mr. Jessup is a member of the Grange. On the 15th day of
March, 1915, Mr. Jessup was united in marriage with Miss Nettie Simonson, a
daughter of Aaron, and Anna (Wait) Simonson, of Whitewater township, Hamilton
county. To this union has been born a daughter, Anna Jane, who was born December
31, 1917. As a citizen, Mr. Jessup is progressive and manifests a zealous
interest in the measures which have for their object the substantial
improvements of the county. By energy, thrift, economy and honorable dealing, he
has won the success which classes him with the substantial agriculturists of his
state.
