Notes - Samson became a naturalized citizen in Selma, Alabama, on 5/25/1872. He was a very successful silk merchants who travelled internationally and brought home some very interesting furniture and rugs from the Far East. In 1902, he built a summer home on 75 acres on Paradox Lake in the town of Severance, NY, in the Adirondack Mountains. The story is told that he wasn’t well-liked by the neighbors because he paid more than the going wage to get enough workers (a crew of 50) to build the house in one year. A few years later, electricity arrived and the interior was dismantled in order to wire the house.
