biographical or anecdotal information:

source:
2. You show Samuel H. FERGUSON as a son of Moses, Jr., and Rebecca
(SIMMERMAN) FERGUSON. I believe this is in error. Samuel is not shown with
this family in the 1850 census when he would have been 12 yrs old. Also, he
is not listed among the heirs in the probate records of Moses' estate in
1863. My GGrandfather, Francis Marion FERGUSON, was the son of Moses and
Rebecca, and several accounts state or imply that he was the only son amid 6
daughters. I have tried to figure out who Samuel's parents were. I think
he may have been the son of William and Margaret (HENRY) FERGUSON, Moses'
older brother, because he lived near William in the 1860 and 1870 censuses,
but I have no proof.
