  Notes	Samuel Baldwin probably moved from Shenandoah County, Virginia, to North Sewickley Township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, in 1804. A Nathaniel Pettit had moved to North Sewickley Township in 1799 from Virginia, and may have been a relative of Samuel Baldwin's mother, Mary Pettit Baldwin. Samuel Baldwin appeared on the North Sewickley Township tax list in 1805 as a carpenter. By 1807 he had moved a few miles north to Shenango Township (now Lawrence County), where he appeared on the tax list for that year. Samuel and Mary Hazen Baldwin were members of the Providence Baptist Church in North Sewickley Township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania. Later, Samuel Baldwin became a charter member of the Harmony Baptist Church in Slippery Rock Township, when it was founded in 1849. Samuel was a farmer and a school teacher and was nicknamed "the Professor." He served in the War of 1812 as a private in Company 9, commanded by Captian Wilson Caldoo, in the 138th Regiment of the 2nd Brigade, 16th Division, Pennsylvania Militia. He was drafted on 8 January 1814, and served until 13 March 1814, when he was released at Erie, Pennsylvania. In 1850, he received 50 acres of bounty land for his service. Samuel's will was written 3 April 1856 and proved 12 April 1856 in Lawrence County. He left his farm to his sons, Samuel H. and Joseph Baldwin, with provisions for cash payments to his daughters.
