Notes : The obvious clue that this may be Samuel P. Webb is the reference in the land patent to Samuel Webb of Huron County, Ohio. This could be the Samuel Webb family of Wakeman township, Huron County (in 1850 Census). Samuel P. Webb could have simply purchased this land for the purpose of reselling it.
