[All of Benjamin and Jane Cowgill Linton's children were born in Bucks County, PA. Samuel Linton's wife, Elizabeth Harvey, died in Bucks County, 1796. Samuel and his children then emigrated to Warren County, Ohio in 1802 and then to Clinton County, Ohio in 1803. I have no knowledge of whether any of his siblings went to Ohio with him. If anyone is descended from the Samuel Linton line, it would be worthwhile to own the book by Beers "The History of Clinton County, Ohio", 1882. He printed many letters from Samuel Linton to his Quaker friends in Pennsylvania, and there is a lot of additional history on Samuel's children. The letter continues with other births and deaths of Allen Linton's family, as recorded in the Bible of Allen Linton, son of David, in Ohio.]
