As an organizer of Stephens County in 1860, Samuel served as the first county clerk. In 1862 he married Susan Emily Reynolds (b. 1848), with whom he had one child. Samuel fought for the Confederate Army during the Civil War and in 1864 he joined the state militia to protect the frontier from Native Americans raids. The Newcombs moved to Fort Davis in Stephens County, Texas, where Samuel helped establish the school at which he taught in 1865. Following the war, the family built a home near Stone Ranch, where they had lived with Susan’s family. Samuel founded a general store near Fort Griffin before dying of measles in 1870. Following her husband’s death, Susan lived with her parents in Weatherford and traveled to Missouri. She would later marry would later marry Nathan L. Bartholomew.--Hunt, William R.

Government agencies are using his results and tools to improve how outbreaks of COTS are managed and controlled on the GBR
Being Cut Off from All One’s Kind: Samuel Butler, New Zealand, and Colonial Identity
In the autobiographical A First Year in a Canterbury Settlement (1863)
and in his utopian/dystopian novel, Erewhon (1872), both Samuel Butler
and the undesignated narrator depart the British metropole and embark on
risky sea voyages in order to make a name for themselves on a group of
islands almost as far away as it is possible to get.1 The world of Erewhon
is usually read as a satire on British Victorian society, but this chapter
proposes that it can also be seen as replaying Butler’s arrival in New
Zealand and the destabilising effects of colonialism on the colonising
subject. A work of fiction and an ostensibly autobiographical text are thus
read together to reveal, first, the way that anticipated readership frames
that which can be spoken about colonial voyages; second, the traumatic
effects of long sea passages; and, third, the ways in which the effects of
distance between colony and metropole affect communication and
subjectivity
